  • Moorlands Lodge Care Home - Avery Collection, Hindhead
The team at Moorlands Lodge offers a warm welcome to all. Moorlands Lodge is a care home like no other in the area. The home is purpose built and offers exceptional accommodation, which is affordable but of a very high standard. The home provides residential, nursing, respite and dementia care.

The home happily accommodates couples and companions who wish to remain together as they continue their care journey and make new memories side by side.

A one bedroom suite offers a bedroom and separate lounge and kitchen with a full en-suite wet room and is unique as it offers double the space of most care homes and is ideal for those wanting extra room or couples who want to stay together. The home also features studio suites for those who prefer something more cosy. Rooms come unfurnished allowing residents to bring those special pieces of their home with them, something they find helps the settling in process significantly and truly makes Moorlands Lodge feel like home.

Moorlands Lodge offers a fully licensed outstanding restaurant, the menu being dictated by current residents, and an in house café for residents and visitors to enjoy afternoon tea and home made cakes. The home also has a large activities team who provide trips out, visiting speakers, one to one sessions and activities which are again chosen by the resident committee.

Residents range from those who are relatively independent and still drive, to those who require respite, full nursing, dementia or end of life care and the team pride themselves on providing discreet support in a place which is not institutional but as much like home as they can make it. Dignity, encouraging independence and involving family and friends are part of the fabric of Moorlands Lodge and they hope that these values are echoed in the recommendations and testimonials received.

Having had a hip replacement operation, I stayed 2 weeks at Moorlands Lodge.
The staff were very welcoming and helpful. A wonderful atmosphere enabling me to recover and regain my mobility.
The accommodation was spacious and comfortable. Activities varied, happy and sociable. A wide range of food
was served, tastefully cooked and presented.

The welcome and care the Moorlands team have given my father since his arrival has been exemplary. Neither he nor any of our family can fault them or the facilities in any way.

I am currently enjoying my first stay in a care home and generally speaking I am finding it to be a very pleasant experience. My room is extremely comfortable with a pleasant view over a garden area and a wonderful Fir Tree. Amenities are excellent as is the catering.

My brother and I were in need of urgent help in placing our mother in care after she was incapacitated with labyrinthitis which had adversely affected her balance. Moorlands Lodge and their outstanding management and staff in general were really compassionate and efficient in taking her in and giving
her the care and attention she needed to get her back on her feet. She is now living in her own home again, with domiciliary care and hopefully will continue so until things get too much for her, at which time I am sure we will turn to Moorlands Lodge again, probably for a permanent stay.

Reply from Dean Trodd, Client Liaison Manager at Moorlands Lodge Care Home - Avery Collection

Thank you for your kind review, it's fantastic to hear you feel this way and to hear your mother is now back at home and doing well.

My Aunt spent a period of respite care at Moorlands Lodge following a spell in hospital. She lives alone and we did not feel she was ready to return home straight from hospital. Moorlands Lodge proved to be the perfect place for her to regain her confidence and their excellent care and support has
helped to return her to independent living once more. I would not hesitate to recommend the excellent facilities and the wonderful staff at Moorlands Lodge.

The home has a lovely atmosphere. The team is so welcoming and the nursing care is fantastic. The staff really care about the residents and are on hand to advise. I am so glad we found Moorlands - it has given us all peace of mind in what could have been a difficult period.

I have been here for the first few weeks as a respite patient and have now decided to stay long term.
The staff are all delightful, creating an atmosphere of happiness and helpfulness at all times.
The kitchen staff, in particular, are so good at helping me with my awkward food requests owing to swallowing
difficulties.
I have met quite a few residents and they all agree it is an excellent establishment and are happy here.
I have, therefore, no hesitation in recommending Moorlands very highly and wish it well for the future.

With all the challenges we face in life, being old with a few problems (issues?) age, which comes to all, if you live long enough, has no real 'pain' because it is helped to bear by the excellent care and sympathy that the management and all staff here at Moorlands Lodge give. There is nowhere I would
sooner be right now.

My mother spent 2 years in the main house and for the last 6 months is in Livingstone. At no time have we had any worries. One is always kept up to date. Meals are excellent and a big effort is made around special occasions either generally or to the particular Resident. The staff are always helpful
and kind with a lot of respect for the Residents. The ‘outings’ and entertainment is terrific. A small problem can be the parking! The refurbishment makes everything look lighter and brighter. We are always informed of anything to do with medical problems or of the inevitable, occasional ‘falls’. This is inevitable with age and balance.

I found the atmosphere in Moorlands Lodge so warm and welcoming especially in Livingstone Ward for dementia patients.
Where my husband lived for nearly a year. Each of the staff had a different personality but each of them were so affectionate and caring, treating them with sympathy, patience and understanding.
This
meant so much to me and enabled me to have a life.

A safe caring, cheerful haven for 4 weeks post-op. All staff were attentive, kind and understanding as well as very professional. Pleasant open surroundings with an atmosphere conducive to healing. Every one seemed to have time to check and listen. It couldn't have been better.

We as a family find Moorlands Lodge very good. In particular, absolutely every member of staff, in whichever department, whom we have met has been friendly, helpful, polite and above all, patient and good natured.

My husband was treated with care, respect and humour.
He was 87 and very confused as he had dementia and we had recently moved house.
As a theatre and film director, he often tried to 'direct' the nurses and they played along with it.
I was moved by the way they treated him as a friend.

Reply from Marcus Le Brocq, Senior Client Liaison Manager at Moorlands Lodge Care Home - Avery Collection

Dear Anna, thank you for taking the time to give us a review. Your husband gave all of us some fabulous 'direction' and I know the staff who cared for him became very close in the short time that he was with us. We wish you all the best.

My father was at Moorlands from August 16 to March 17. Most things about Moorlands were very good, almost every member of staff was kind and helpful and Dad had excellent care. The rooms, lounges and dining room are extremely well appointed. My only proviso to would-be residents is to examine closely
the likely costs as Moorlands operate a charging system whereby every half hour/hour of care received is costed and it can quickly become extremely expensive. My father, with medium/severe mobility issues, was paying just short of £10k a month. Because he is very deaf he made very little use of the lounges and was not interested in joining the comprehensive activities schedule. Eventually, I had to move him to another care home where an "all-in" fee is charged resulting in a huge reduction in his care costs, and massive relief that his care would be affordable however long he lives.

Reply from Marcus Le Brocq, Senior Client Liaison Manager at Moorlands Lodge Care Home - Avery Collection

Dear Sandy, we loved having your father here and we were very sad when you took the decision to move him to another home. Our model is to provide very high staffing ratios in high quality surroundings and sadly we are not able to do this if we were only in receipt of local authority funding. Thank you for taking the time to complete a review.

I can not recommend Moorlands Lodge more highly. My mother was there for 2 years and during that time she was loved, cared for and looked after beautifully. The staff took the time to look after all her needs and nothing was too much trouble. They also looked after the rest of the family, teaching us
how to cope with dementia and they became like a second family to us. The activities they organised were first class, imaginative and varied and these were an important part of my mother's life at Moorlands. Even when my mother sadly passed away the love, help and support the family received was incredible. We were so lucky that my mother spent her final years in such a fantastic and happy environment.

My Aunt lived at Moorlands for the period April 2016 to April 2017. She was very comfortable during her stay, although had some issues with the food quality. The staff were extremely helpful and kind. Her reason for moving was to a smaller home with a better geographical positioning to be closer to
relatives.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.498)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.498) out of 10 for Moorlands Lodge Care Home - Avery Collection 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 19 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 18 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 4.649 for Moorlands Lodge Care Home - Avery Collection is calculated as follows: ( (156 Excellents x 5) + (62 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 225 Ratings = 4.649

  • 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 4.849 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Moorlands Lodge Care Home - Avery Collection is based on 18 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 106 registered maximum number of service users is 21.2. 18 Positive Reviews ÷ 21.2 = 0.849

  • 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.
