I felt I just had to send you this email to express our thanks and gratitude to the wonderful staff at Tallington. They went above and beyond to help us celebrate Mum's special birthday on Saturday. They are all a credit to the home, especially one staff member in particular, whose eye for detail is
second to none. We were given the use of the "pub" upstairs, the staff had decorated it in birthday bunting etc, which I had bought in. The little buffet prepared by the kitchen was absolutely delicious. The staff member kept popping in to ensure we were all OK and even rallied other members of staff to come in and sing "Happy Birthday" to Mum with a beautiful cake. We were honestly blown away, and Mum had a wonderful time. Please would you forward our thanks to all involved. Kind regards.

We were looking for a care home for Dad initially for respite in Lincolnshire. Tallington far exceeded the other homes we looked at. It has an extremely welcoming, homely feel, very clean and modern and such caring and friendly yet professional staff. My dad loves the food and the care he gets and he
is thinking of long-term care which we support him 100 percent. I am so happy that he is happy and being cared for. Thank you everyone at Tallington.

This is a wonderful clean, comfortable, extremely friendly care home. I am so glad my father-in-law has a room here. It is so delightful to see pictures of local landmarks especially as we have a railway interest. Food is excellent and it was wonderful to have a family celebration here with personal
care and attention. The ambience here is unique and long may these standards be maintained. Thank you.

My mother ended up going to Tallington for four weeks respite after breaking her leg. From start to finish the care was excellent and we were kept updated at all times. Very impressed with the quality of care and having visited a few in the area it was far superior in its facilities and general upkeeping.

I know my husband is safe and secure with staff on duty 24/7, a service I can no longer provide. Not easy working with elderly people, deteriorating in health and a job taken on trust. A privilege to see and I am most grateful.

The care is exceptional, akin to a 3/4 star hotel. Everything is new and scrupulously clean. The food is clearly homemade and of a very high standard. The staff are all very caring and attentive to visitors and residents. The residents are clearly very happy and content. We are so happy that we have
had the opportunity to place my mother-in-law in such a lovely establishment.

The overall feel of the home is one of welcome. The facility is wonderfully clean and warm. The residents all seem very happy. My mother is very content and happy here. We came for a family visit and the meal was restaurant quality, if not better. The same person looked after us again this year and
he was attentive and delightful.

We were thoroughly impressed with the genuine care for the residents that we witnessed on 12-July-2024. We travelled from the U.S. to visit our grandmother/great-grandmother and were treated so well by the staff and were pleased to see the condition of the facilities and the attention given to its residents.
Our family member is happy, healthy, and well cared for. We can't thank the staff enough.

Friendly welcome on my visits. Emails have not really been acknowledged or replied to. The staff are very friendly in looking after Mum, however, they are different staff on most visits and don't appear to be aware of what's happened to Mum in recent days. A log of Mum's daily care would be good to
have available on my visits.

Talligton Lodge has been a lifeline for me. Knowing Mum is safe and secure. The staff are caring, kind, considerate and always have time for relatives. They make you and your parent in care feel at home. Nothing is too much if you need advice or reassurance.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.746)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.746) out of 10 for Tallington Lodge Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 29 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 28 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 4.746 for Tallington Lodge Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (273 Excellents x 5) + (56 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 343 Ratings = 4.746

  • 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 Tallington Lodge Care Home is based on 28 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 61 registered maximum number of service users is 12.2, which has been reached with 28 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.
