We cannot thank you enough for the support and care you gave to my dad during his time with you. He was ready to come home, but we felt comfortable knowing that your incredible staff were giving him the best possible standard of care. He always seemed happy with the food, and the only thing I would
comment on was the windows being a little restrictive to let fresh air in. Thank you.

Since being Harrogate Lodge Care Home to a Four Seasons Health Care home my husband has been so well cared for. He has been so well cared for. He has been shaved daily. Treated with kindness, understanding and care. He is very shy but enjoys the entertainment plus one to one attention he gets plus really
enjoyed the meal. It gives me such peace of mind knowing he is happy and well cared forby gentle and well trained staff.

My mum has been a resident of Harrogate Lodge Care Home for over 3 years. During that time I have seen the Dementia unit grow to now be a centre of excellence. The unit promotes a strong feeling of community demonstrating an understanding of each resident's individuality and recognising the life they
had led before entering the home. The staff are very warm caring and friendly looking after family members as much as the residents. Relatives and residents are seen as a family unit and encouraged to join in events and activities with loved ones to create lasting positive memories which can be difficult when a loved one has dementia. Regular residents and family meetings occur with Marsha and her team to discuss what is happening in the home and what’s working well and what could be better - comments are always listened to and acted on.

I cannot express enough my thanks to all the staff. Mom moved in during the Covid epidemic and we were unable to view the home due to restrictions, but the conversations we had over the phone before the move more than impressed me and I knew at once Mom would be happy here. When she moved in we were
not allowed to visit but whenever we dropped anything off for her all the staff knew who we were talking about and always reassured us she was well. Now we can visit I can see we made the right decision in choosing this home. Even though I struggle to visit most weeks I know she is being looked after so once again thanks to all the staff and my 5 stars shows what a great place this is and I wish I could give a 10 as they really deserve it

So pleased to be able to share my thanks and praise for the wonderful management and staff at Harrogate Lodge Care Home. Since Mum moved in there at the end of last year we have been delighted with the support, care and concern she has been shown. Regular staff are kind and courteous and go above and
beyond to help residents feel happy, settled and entertained. Activities are varied and inclusive, offering stimulation and satisfaction.
As a family, we have been grateful for the weight that has been lifted from us knowing that Mum is safe and settled and that her physical health is now the best it has been for a long time.
Thank you, team!

Mum moved into Harrogate Lodge from another home 6 months ago. The manager collected Mum herself so the move was completely stress-free, which made everything much easier for us as a family.
The staff/carers are wonderful, very kind and understanding of all Alzheimer's symptoms and elderly needs.
The
nurses and doctors are professional at all times but still remain friendly if any questions are raised. Problems are dealt with promptly and our family are kept in the loop at all times.
The food cooked on the premises is lovely and enjoyed by Mum at every meal.
The home is spotlessly clean and organised well.
Plenty of rooms to have private visits.
I would struggle to find anything negative to report overall.
Maybe the main resident's lounge could be bigger but this is certainly not an issue for Mum as it has a lovely homely vibe.
There are plenty of activities during the day and the manager seems to want to engage.
Overall I would highly recommend this nursing home to families.

My mum has been in Harrogate Lodge Care Home for a few weeks and loves the place.
The staff are so caring and have made what has been a hard change for my mum easier. Every day when we visit there is always someone there with a big smile to let us in.
Mum says the food is lovely and we have noticed
that she is eating more than she has been in years. She will miss you all.

My grandma was admitted after a fall which resulted in a broken pelvis. The care she received was amazing. All the staff including the nurses, carers, physio's OTS, and cleaners treat her with care. When issues are raided they were dealt with. At 97 this was her first experience of care and she couldn't
have been in a nicer care home

My mother-in-law lived at Harrogate Lodge for the last two years, where she was very well cared for by the lovely kind team of nurses and carers. The home is much improved in recent months, since the new manager took over and the communal areas are much more welcoming and pleasant. Although my mum in
laws room was a bit basic, it was always very clean and you do realise that is not about 'carpets and curtains', when a loved one needs nursing care. It's about the care they receive and we always felt reassured that she was being given the best care. We were always kept informed by the care team and management, who we cannot thank enough for supporting and caring for my mum-in-law, at such a difficult time in her life.

My Mother was transferred here from an emergency placement at another nursing home. The difference was stark. The staff at Harrogate Lodge were genuinely interested in giving my Mother a personal service and making her stay as fulfilling as they could. The staff are invariably caring and are a credit
to the home and their profession.

My mum has been in Harrogate Lodge for the last 9 weeks. She was in an Intermediate Care bed but fortunately, she now has a permanent nursing bed there. The quality of care she has received during this time has been excellent. All the staff are very caring and professional in their duties, no matter
what those duties entail. They make sure Mum is comfortable and as happy as she can be. The staff do all they possibly can to make her time with them as pleasant as possible.
The home is clean and feels very welcoming to visitors as well as their patients. It is well managed both clinically and administratively. I have been kept informed at all stages of Mum's care and the level of support I have received has been excellent. All staff show kindness and empathy to our situation which is a great help during a difficult period in our lives.
It helps so much to know that mum is in safe and caring hands. I cannot thank all the staff enough for what they do for their residents. Highly recommended.

Overall, the experience has been a positive one. In the circumstances I would say the staff have been very caring and helpful. Even when there was a mix up with outside assistance, the care home staff were really helpful and made sure my mum was given her room back until her outside care could be rearranged.
there was always a member of staff available when we had any queries and I'm sure my mum will miss the staff when she returns home.

Can't thank the staff at the home enough for going out of their way to help us settle Mum into Harrogate Lodge. They have kept us informed on the process of admission from hospital and how Mum has settled into the home. We look forward to spending happy hours there with Mum in the future. It's a great
comfort to know that Mum is in such caring hands and that the staff will take good care of her. We feel very confident that this is the right move for Mum and look forward to working with the staff to keep Mum comfortable and happy. Such a joy to see how caring everyone is not just for Mum but for us as relatives too and so refreshing after the last home Mum was in.

I attended a garden party that was advertised yesterday. It was a short but brilliantly organised event. The residents appeared to have a great time. Dances and stalls and the staff are very attentive to the needs and enjoyment of the residents. It would be great to see more community connections here.
A great couple of hours, thank you.

Can’t praise the staff enough in this nursing home. Even in these difficult times, the residents are treated with a lot of respect and dignity.
I wish my Dad had been here sooner. The last home was shocking. I didn’t realise how bad until I saw how caring the staff are here!

My mum’s recently moved in, I was nervous about the change, but the activity coordinator showed me round and put me at ease. Listening to her passion and commitment made me feel confident in my choice on behalf of my mum. I now see the words at the initial meeting being put into action, activities are
high on the agenda and making a real difference. My mum’s settling in and interaction between staff and residents has been positive and friendly.

It is truly heartwarming to see the outstanding level of care provided to the residents.
The staff work tirelessly to ensure that the residents' physical needs are met, but also their emotional needs with the many varied and exciting activities that are provided.
I feel very comfortable leaving my
Mum knowing she’s in more capable hands than if I were looking after her. The staff really genuinely care about the residents and are absolute angels.
It would be lovely for them to get some recognition for the work they do. I don’t think they even realise what a positive impact they make on the residents and their families who can leave their loved ones with the knowledge they are safe and loved.

In times when it appears customary to berate care for the elderly, I would like to thank Harrogate Lodge Care Home for the care and support they show to my mother, a dementia sufferer. They admitted her against the odds and made her smile again.
The staff are lovely, well trained and caring for dementia
residents.
Harrogate Lodge exceeded all my expectations of how I thought Mums care would be. My mum and I are very lucky.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.565)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.565) out of 10 for Harrogate Lodge Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 25 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 4.565 for Harrogate Lodge Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (214 Excellents x 5) + (59 Goods x 4) + (16 Satisfactorys x 3) + (8 Poors x 2) + (4 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 301 Ratings = 4.565

  • 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 Harrogate Lodge Care Home is based on 25 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 25 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.
