"My father moved to Barchester Cheverton Lodge Care Home this week. So far, I am delighted with the care and support my father has received. The manager was extremely warm and welcoming and made me feel at ease upon arrival, he has a warm, human and friendly approach. Overall, my experience has been excellent and most importantly, the staff had made my father feel comfortable and happy. In addition, I mentioned that my father does not like drinking plain water - the next day, the carer had put orange squash in his jug instead. Thank you all. P.S. I have noticed a positive impact on my father's well-being since switching care homes to Barchester Cheverton Lodge Care Home - the manager is amazing and always checks in with me."

"Good and welcoming reception area and receptionist showed a well-organised care home. Guest's have a very clean and spacious dining and lounge, TV area. Also, a large room opening onto a small garden allows for friends and family to celebrate lunch or similar events with the residents."

"When I come I always see my friend looking well kempt, clean and tidy, hair looked after etc. All her needs, snacks, drinks etc are to hand, easily accessible for her. The staff treat her with respectful friendliness, but give her the high degree of support that she needs."

"I really appreciated the excellent nursing care she received at Barchester Cheverton Lodge Care Home. The team were outstanding! I felt I could relax knowing she was cared for with such kindness and dignity. We have fond memories of visiting her, especially in the last few weeks of her life. She said, many times, she was happy at the home and she made everyone smile with her sense of humour! I highly recommend Cheverton Lodge."

"I would recommend Cheverton Lodge to family and friends. It is well run and has very good staff. The manager and his senior staff show very good leadership. Staff are valued and this shows by the way they treat the residents. The staff provide very good care for all residents including my father who needs a lot of care and patience. The home is presently handling the Coronavirus pandemic very well. The home like the rest of the care Group had a plan in place long before the government lockdown. The home is following government advice and procedure. So far, none of Cheverton Lodge's residents or staff has become ill and hopefully, it will remain this way. Relatives of residents are able to keep in touch via video calls which Cheverton Lodge quickly set up. Relatives can also telephone their love ones. At this present time, I think the home is doing all it can to bring itself safely through this pandemic."

"So disappointed in this place the care standards are very low I can never find a nursing staff to speak to either on the phone or on visits. Definitely not a place to be in to end your final days. My relative is not kept clean and is slowly losing his life and his dignity."

"My mother was at Cheverton Lodge recently for respite care and we were concerned about her settling. In the end, we need not have worried as she was very well looked after and seemed comfortable. It made a big difference to know she was in a safe place with staff doing their best for each resident."

"I find I feel safe and welcomed when I visit my sister. I see her on different occasions and have always found she is cared for and it makes me happy. I've had the difficult time but spoke to a member of staff and he checked it out for me and my sister seemed OK."

"My sister-in-law was previously very independent and did not settle at first but the staff are very kind, hard working and caring. She now seems to feel at home a lot of the time, though has periods of sadness, possibly partly due to her previous stroke. Cheverton Lodge feels homely and friendly. My sister-in-law likes to join in with the social activities but can choose not to. Her care is very good. It is a relatively small-medium home and the rooms aren't large. Ensuite toilets and basin but no shower."

"Highly recommend Cheverton Lodge. My husband has been a resident since Oct 2019. They provide excellent care through dedicated staff and have shown great patience, understanding and hard work when getting to know my husband with his various and complicated conditions. I feel very fortunate to have found them."

"My husband was resident from last March. Unfortunately, he died November 2017. During the time he was there he was always happy, enjoyed the meals. He always looked clean and cared for. All the staff were kind, efficient and polite on all occasions. They were always kind to me and provided tea and refreshments on every occasion I visited. I was content that he ended his last days there at Cheverton."

"My sister was at Cheverton Lodge for nearly a month following a long stay at the Whittington for an acute orthopaedic problem. The care at Cheverton was superb. Exceptional in fact. This is because it is a caring place with highly professional staff. It is friendly and supportive. Very good facilities and activities and good food. Her room was light and airy. And the staff were patient and helpful even when things were difficult. My brother-in-law needs help and we hope he will be able to find a room in Cheverton Lodge too."

"Cheverton Lodge has looked after my nan for over 15 years. She loved being here. All the staff old and new treated her like family. One of their own. My family and I will be entirely grateful for everything you did for her until the day she passed. Simply thank you from the bottom of my heart."

"I am very happy with the care my father receives. Since being there he has put on weight and has been very well looked after. I often come at various times and always find the staff very friendly, welcoming, professional and extremely caring from the cleaners to the manager and really would like to thank everyone for the care my father has received since being at the Lodge. Thank you."

"We were extremely happy and grateful for the loving care and attention to detail that my uncle has been given over the last few years. Everyone from management to all the staff Have been wonderful. He could not have been better looked after. When you walk into the building, the first thing that strikes you is the cleanliness and pleasant environment. We really cannot thank everyone enough for making my uncle feel like he had another family."

"Overall I have been very impressed. The home is clean and staff very good. I would like to see more trips outside the home and also, in my Uncle's case, there have been some instances when we has not had the care he needed, although in other instances the care has been excellent."

"My nan was very apprehensive when she first came following a stroke. The staff have been so good at helping her adapt to her new life here. She is happy and healthy, well looked after and joins in the activities. The staff here are all very lovely and helpful. I'm so glad my nan has such a nice place to stay."

"We found Cheverton Lodge care home to be excellent. The environment was pleasant upbeat and stimulating. The staff go over and beyond what they can be expected to do to ensure residents are comfortable, happy and have a voice. We consider ourselves very happy that our lovely mum had the opportunity to end her days in such a lovely place. We could not have asked for more. Thank you. I would recommend this care home without reservation. This home should be held up as a beacon of what a very good quality care home looks like."

"I was a resident for respite care due to a leg injury and I was practically immobile, the food was inedible also too rich. For me, it made me ill, I was bullied by certain staff, (naming no names) it is the worst so-called nursing care home anywhere in North London. I didn't get nursing care and was often forgotten at mealtimes, also other times. My medicines weren't supplied. I was rather happy to leave it and come home."

"I visit my grandad regularly and I am very impressed with the care he receives. He is well looked after and very happy to be a resident. The home is immaculately clean and the food is always of a high standard with lots of choices. The staff are very friendly and make lots of effort to make my grandad feel comfortable. Thank you Cheverton Lodge."

"I visited my mother on 13th July. Normally her washing from Wednesday/Thursday is returned to Mum on Friday morning. When my brother visited on Sunday 15th there were no clothes in the room. He was told that there was a problem in the laundry room. On Monday I had to go to the shops to buy Mum more clothes. On Tuesday morning none of the clothes in the laundry had still been returned to her room!"

"I cannot describe how highly I feel about this care home and the management and all the people who are doing an excellent job of carding for loved ones. They are very kind and efficient and provide very good care of my son. I can’t thank them all enough for their kindness and care, it really means a lot that I know he is well-loved and looked after when I’m unable to visit."

"I’m writing this review because I’m extremely happy with Cheverton Lodge. I have not been able to visit my relative for a good few weeks now, because of this virus, and it’s hard when you really don’t know what’s going on within the home when you don’t attend, but I have got to say I phone on a regular basis and always the staff are helpful and willing to talk even though they are extremely busy at this time. I am given updates on my relative and told to ring as and when I want, I have even spoken on the phone to her and video link, always getting emails and letters to keep us informed. Thank you so much for the care that is ongoing, stay safe and thank you once again."
