It was all smiles, singing and dancing at Rose Lodge Care Home in Carers Way as residents and staff enjoyed jiving and singing along to live entertainment from performer Mark Hodgson.
The party was organised to celebrate the home’s amazing results in the ‘Your Care Rating’ national residents’ survey in which care home residents across the country rate the care and services they receive.   Rose Lodge was hailed for providing a top rate service by the residents themselves, receiving an overall performance score of 964 out of 1,000, beating the national average figure of 872 and topping their previous year’s rating of 958.
Care Manager Nicola Wheatley said: “We were delighted with our Your Care Rating score and wanted to throw a party to thank residents for agreeing to take part and offering their feedback.”
“It’s so important that residents have the opportunity to voice their opinions about the home and the care they receive here. We are committed to continually raising standards which is why we felt it was so important that residents had the chance to participate in the survey.”
Nicola said she was thrilled that the party was such a success: “We all had a lot of fun, it was the perfect way to celebrate a great achievement for Rose Lodge.”
