The staff at Tallington Care Home are second to none. They really did support and care for my dad during his respite. Dad was very scared about going into respite but after a few hours there he was really enjoying himself and was really enjoying his staff. Whenever I rang Tallington Care Home they were
very familiar with dad's needs and gave me a full update. Staff provide brilliant activities which they shared on Facebook which gave me a lot of reassurance as we were not allowed to visit due to coronavirus.
I cannot praise all the staff enough. Big thank you.

Tallington Lodge is the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. I really don’t know what I would have done without them. A big thank you to all carers and staff who are taking great care of my mother who has been a resident since March 2019. They have all been outstanding, especially throughout this
awful pandemic. Thank you to all of you.

I would highly recommend Tallington Lodge Care Home. The care and attention they give is excellent.
Over the last few months, I have had no concerns about the care residents have received,
I am so pleased I transferred my husband to Tallington before lockdown. Grateful thanks from me and my family.

My mum went to Tallington Lodge for respite care whilst we were away. I was nervous as it was the first time we had left her but, all the staff made it such an easy process.
She got involved with all the baking, knitting and the craft club. It was lovely seeing her so content. We would definitely take
Mum here again.

I honestly can't fault the attention and care that my father receives. All the staff are so friendly and if there are any concerns, they do not hesitate to notify me.
The actual room and facilities are superb, totally faultless. So pleased that we got my father to stay here.

My husband has been at Tallington on respite recently due to ill health. He wasn't happy with the prospect of staying in a care home but we were very surprised by Tallington and its luxury facilities. The staff were all incredibly friendly and helpful. We are going to come back in to use the lovely
cafe in the future to see the friends that my husband has made whilst in the home. Thank you to Tallington, it feels more like a hotel break than a care home stay.

The care home looks recently refurbished. Decor is light and tasteful. My father likes the food and how he is treated by all the staff. Staff seem to have the knowledge and patience required and are friendly, attentive and empathetic. My father has improved socially and with his dress standards since
he went to Tallingotn Lodge.

The whole of the family has been relieved by the ease with which Mum's respite stay transitioned into a permanent basis. Her needs and sometimes perplexing communications have been addressed. The staff skills are beyond expectations and the home provides respectful care with a lot of laughter.

I have nothing but praise for the Tallington Lodge Care home, my mother became a respite resident and then a permanent resident when we witnessed the difference it made to her. She had been living alone and "independently " but no quality of life. During her time at Tallington she has been encouraged
to take part in activities, her needs are considered continually and all the staff are very welcoming and interact well with the residents. There always seems to be plenty of staff about and regardless of the position they all interact with the residents and each other and with families visiting.

I am extremely pleased with how my concern of respite care for my mother was considered by the manager and her staff and of the care provided during her stay at Tallington Lodge. I have no hesitation in sorting respite care for her here again and certainly can only speak very positively about the place.

This care home dispels all your fears surrounding that hard decision of having a relative needing to go into care. The new facilities are more like a hotel but much more importantly, the staff genuinely care. The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming. The residents are happy and the varied activities
are always being shown on their Facebook page so you can see your loved one having fun.

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.
