Fantastic care and attention is paid to my father-in-law. He is so happy. He has turned down moving to another home as the care he has here is amazing. As family members we are 100% happy with staff, cleanliness, informed of protocol and all COVID testing etc. Thank you Middleton Park Lodge.

Reply from Lindsey Leatham, Middleton Park Lodge Manager at Middleton Park Lodge Nursing Home

My father was in poor physical and mental health when he became a resident in June 2020. He has been well cared for after a hard struggle with his mobility and low mood. My father, unfortunately, suffered a mini-stroke in November which affected his speech. The staff stepped up his care and have done
everything to make Dad comfortable and enable him to recover. Dad refused any treatment so staff have cared for him while retaining Dad's independence.

Reply from Laura Clegg, Home Manager at Middleton Park Lodge Nursing Home

Thank you for your kind message. It is always a difficult time for people when they move into a care home, so we try to do our very best to make them feel part of the family immediately. We have spent time getting to know your dad and he has settled well here at Middleton Park Lodge and is very much part of our family here. It is our pleasure to be able to look after him. Kind regards, Laura Clegg.

I'd not seen my mam for 5 months due to Covid19 and the last time I saw my mam she was not in a good way, but for the great care she got, she pulled through. She missed 4 birthdays and on the 15th of September, she was 80. What a great day, with help from the manager they arranged for me to surprise
Mam with a cake and cards and with my phone, she could get birthday messages. Mam looks better than she has in a long time and that is due to a very good team of carers and I can not praise them enough.

Reply from Laura Clegg, Home Manager at Middleton Park Lodge Nursing Home

Thank you for your very kind review. It has been a very difficult time for our residents and for families being unable to visit loved ones. I am so happy that your visit went well and your mum told me how much she enjoyed your visit and how happy she was.

My older sister was a resident before her recent death, in the time she was at Park Lodge she was treated with great care and dignity, nothing was too much trouble for any of the staff. Her room was spotless and staff catered for all her needs in a cheerful manner.
It was a great comfort to me and
my younger sister that she was comfortable and well cared for in her final days.

Reply from Frances Leighton, Care Home Manager at Middleton Park Lodge Nursing Home

Many thanks for leaving such a lovely review for our home. I’m glad to hear that our standard of care for your sister met your expectations and that we could care for her in her final moments of her life. Our deepest condolences and kind regards, Frances Leighton, Care Home Manager

Mr friend was in a care home previously for approximately 3 months (November 2017 to February 2018) and, unfortunately, they were understaffed and therefore didn't have the hands-on attention that she required. She is now getting the treatment and attention required and this has put her in a far better
frame of mind.

Reply from Frances Leighton, Care Home Manager at Middleton Park Lodge Nursing Home

Many thanks for leaving such a positive review. We’re delighted that our standard of care meets your standards for your friend. We look forward to caring for them in the future. Kind regards, Care Home Manager.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.763)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.763) out of 10 for Middleton Park Lodge Nursing 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 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

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 4.763 for Middleton Park Lodge Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (174 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (10 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) + (3 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 198 Ratings = 4.763

  • 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 Middleton Park Lodge Nursing Home is based on 15 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 50 registered maximum number of service users is 10, which has been reached with 15 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.
