My mother-in-law was only in your care for three days before she died, following discharge from the hospital. We have been overwhelmed by the care and compassion shown to us and her husband whilst she was there. The quality of standard of care was outstanding, which is helping us accept our loss, knowing
her last days and hours were spent with love and support. Thank you so much.

Reply from Cristina Ciardulli, General Manager at Barchester Werrington Lodge Care Home

We are devastated and sorry for your loss and want to send all the warmest wishes and love to you and your family from the whole team at Werrington Lodge. Thank you so much for your kind words; it really means a lot, and please know that we are here for families as well as residents, so don't ever feel like a stranger.

A new general manager was appointed in April. Since then, Werrington Lodge has more residents and more nursing and caring staff. How successful and beneficial the new management is, remains to be seen. It is the time of a new broom! The jury is out!

Despite only being a resident of the Lodge for a short time, my father has settled much quicker than we ever expected. This is mainly down to the exceptional care he receives from the manager and her team of outstanding staff. Dad loves the food and endless supply of coffee, always served with a smile.
In addition, all the staff team were of excellent support to the whole family when Mum passed away. We feel we could not have chosen a better healthcare facility for Dad - "home from home".

Reply from Amberley Kent, Activities Coordinator at Barchester Werrington Lodge Care Home

Thank you for the review, we are so glad your father-in-law is feeling comfortable at the home and that he is happy, we aim to make the residents feel at home as much as possible and to provide them with everything we can to ensure their happiness and well-being.

My father is a new resident (one month), and since his arrival to the present date, it can be simply put - excellent in all aspects and far exceeded our expectations. He, without prompt, continually praised, especially the staff and food. I have visited the Lodge on most days, so consider I can reflect
accurately on the aspects of this review. Management excellent.

Reply from Amberley Kent, Activities Coordinator at Barchester Werrington Lodge Care Home

Thank you so much for the review, we are so glad your Dad is settling in well and that you are happy with the home's service, the residents' well-being and relative’s peace of mind is the main priority for us so we are so glad these are being met.

Mum was in the home temporarily for her delirium which was very bad. Though the overall experience has been a bad one in her mind, due to the illness, the staff took excellent care of her, keeping me informed every step of the way, including when she was rushed to hospital in the early hours twice in
one week. After a few weeks, they literally brought my mum back from the dark place she was in, looked after her brilliantly. Due to covid and distance from the home, it was difficult for me to visit so a visit had to be booked many weeks in advance, but this was a small matter. The visiting pod was lovely and you almost forgot the glass partition was there at all.
Mum has since left Werrington for a permanent place nearer me but I won't forget what the wonderful staff did for her and how well they cared for her, especially Mabel.
I was also very very impressed at being asked how I was when I called too. Good to regard family especially with Delirium cases so thank you.

This care home via all staff, whatever their position or function, consistently provide the highest standards of care and compassion one could wish for. Please note because of Covid restrictions, one cannot enter the building so some marks are given as 'good' and not 'excellent' because of this.

The experience I and my family found was really good. All the staff, carers nurses and everyone was friendly, welcoming and helpful.
When you phone whoever answers the phone was friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. My mum always looked clean and well cared for. During lockdown when you
phoned it was never too much trouble and had time for you. My mum's end of life care was excellent, the nursing staff kept me informed and caring. I was allowed to see my mum and my family. We have nothing but praise and thanks for there work.

Since coming to Werrington Lodge at the end of April this year I have been made to feel very welcome. I have found the staff very caring and friendly, they have looked after all my nursing needs. The facilities and activities are good. The food is enjoyable and nothing is too much trouble to accommodate
my dietary needs.
Everyone works extremely hard to make every day a pleasant experience for the residents.

Until I stayed after a hip operation last Mach I had no idea how dedicated and hardworking the care staff is. I visited my husband almost daily before that, but it gave me no idea of all that goes into caring for a person, although I had taken care, with home help, of my husband at home. I found the
lunches delicious and the care and staff marvelous! Everywhere always lovely and clean. My husband is happy to be so well looked after in the care home. I teased the staff I would b emoving in. They said to take their holidays! I can be difficult you see!

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.479)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.479) out of 10 for Barchester Werrington Lodge Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 50 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 48 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 4.479 for Barchester Werrington Lodge Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (366 Excellents x 5) + (157 Goods x 4) + (44 Satisfactorys x 3) + (12 Poors x 2) + (6 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 585 Ratings = 4.479

  • 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 Werrington Lodge Care Home is based on 48 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 68 registered maximum number of service users is 13.6, which has been reached with 48 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.
