Reply from Annie Hall, Marketing Manager at Barchester Edingley Lodge Care Home
Thank you for your feedback, the team at Highfields welcome comments as we strive to continually improve our service.
We are delighted that your husband has settled so well. Since his arrival, it has been noted by all the team members here that there has been a marked improvement in his health and mood.
Occasionally residents with coordination challenges can spill liquids, leaving their clothes wet. In this context, we do try to make sure that clothes are kept as dry as possible whilst supporting individuals to remain as independent as possible. We take the comfort and well-being of residents very seriously and this includes ensuring regular and easy access to the bathroom. This help residents remain independent and comfortable at all times. In terms of medication, the dosage of any medication that has been prescribed is administered according to the prescription guidelines and is under constant review by both the care team and the doctor. As a home manager, I keep a close and careful eye on all our residents and I will continue to do so with your husband, ensuring he is always comfortable. I operate an open door policy, and if you have any further concerns, I would be happy to meet with you at your convenience.

All visitors are welcomed and offered refreshments with their family, the food is fresh, nutritious and good! Nobody wants to leave family members in a care home but I feel my father is as safe and cared for as he could possibly be.

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.831) out of 10 for Barchester Edingley Lodge Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 34 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 33 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.
The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.
The Average Rating of 4.831 for Barchester Edingley Lodge Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (349 Excellents x 5) + (43 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 403 Ratings = 4.831
b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').
The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Barchester Edingley Lodge Care Home is based on 33 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 34 registered maximum number of service users is 6.8, which has been reached with 33 Positive reviews. Points = 1
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
