We are all absolutely delighted at the care that has been shown to my Mum since her move to Abbey Lodge.
A special mention to 5 members of staff in particular.

I am beginning to understand the concept of a care home. It is my home now and I am safe here and all needs are cared for freeing my family up to get on with their own lives without the stress of looking after me. The staff have been understanding and helpful in allowing me to settle in.

We find Abbey Lodge Care Home a lovely place for my father-in-law. He has settled in well and is getting good care. All staff are very friendly and approachable. Always willing to take him to another room or area for us. We can pop in at any time. He gets plenty of varied food which he wasn't getting
at home. His room is comfortable and warm. They are taking care of his medical needs now too and not relying on his GP.

The family have had a very positive experience since my father-in-law arrived in June 2024. It has been a difficult time but we have been reassured by the care he has received so far. I appreciate it is such a demanding role for all staff but we have always had our questions answered and my father-in-law
has not lost his spirit for life and has settled in well.

All of the staff are great in Abbey Lodge. My mum has been here for many years, and it cared for with respect and dignity. I have a lot of respect for the carers doing this very challenging job. Always lots of activities going on.

My experience is one of disappointment and frustration. My first concern would be the attitude of the staff when approached about an issue. In this instance my mother's room was dirty. She had no water in her bedside jug. When questioned the staff immediately went into defence mode instead of an acknowledgement.
When
I requested my mother was only given her own clothes to wear the response was our laundry is busy we have 75 residents! Another mantra we have agency staff.

Reply from Pamela McFarlane, Regional Manager at Abbey Lodge Care Home

Hi James, I am sorry you feel disappointed and that you felt that you had to raise these concerns. This is not the service we endeavour to offer at Abbey Lodge Care Home and I would like the opportunity to meet with you to discuss these concerns further and help to resolve this for yourself, your mother and the family. I will contact you to discuss this further. Kind regards.

We viewed Abbey Lodge as a possibility for my mum. We were very impressed with the facilities in the home and with the rooms. The staff member who gave us the tour was excellent and answered all our questions, which were many.
My mum has now moved into Abbey Lodge and although it's still early days,
she seems quite happy and relaxed with it all. Everyone has made her feel very welcome.

Mum and Dad have lived in this home for a while but things have progressed in the last few months. New management is approachable and helpful. Dad became poorly in December and was in hospital. We know he would not get better. The home did everything to get him back home quickly with all the equipment
he needed. So his last days could be spent with his wife and children by his side. Nothing was too much trouble for the home.

Hi Julie,
Thank you for your lovely review, we are glad this has been your experience of the home. I will pass this on to the team.
Many thanks,
Pamela.

My dad had lived at Abbey Lodge since September 2022. He passed away on Christmas Day. The care, support and love shown to him during this time was exceptional. I cannot thank the staff and management enough for everything they did for him. He was happy and content throughout his time there. It was
the best decision we could have made. Thank you to everyone at Abbey Lodge.

The resident has been bed bound for many months now and receives effective, sensitive and diligent nursing and social care. Great care is taken with all aspects of her physical and emotional care, and communication with the staff team is regular and effective. Any small issue I raise in discussion
is responded to and followed up. Particularly impressed with the adjustments made to changing needs so she has nutritional food, plenty of fluids and patient and understanding assistance with these aspects. Also, efforts were made to provide stimulation to calm her which uses her known interests, despite her deteriorating communication!

The care home is really handy for me and the staff are excellent. The staff are always attentive and on hand for help or questions, rooms are spacey and comfortable and I’m impressed with the cleanliness of the home in general.

My father was moved into Abbey Lodge in November 2020, mid-pandemic. Whilst I appreciate the pandemic causing issues, this cannot be blamed for the failings in my father's care. Put quite simply, if you want the reassurance your loved one is being properly looked after and cherished in your absence,
look elsewhere!

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.568)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.568) out of 10 for Abbey 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 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.568 for Abbey Lodge Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (130 Excellents x 5) + (60 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (4 Poors x 2) + (2 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 199 Ratings = 4.568

  • 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 Abbey Lodge Care Home is based on 16 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 80 registered maximum number of service users is 16, which has been reached with 16 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.
