Review of Barchester Briardene Care Home from Michele S (Daughter of Resident) published on 26 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My dad was in this care home for the past 2 years. Its was his 3rd home and can honestly say it was the best. Down to every single member of staff who gave him so much love & care and understood his cheeky little ways. Also we were all welcomed like we were all family. The full place was immaculate and dad was always clean & well groomed. Sadly dad passed away after a short illness but i will never ever forget the care & compassion we all recieved from every one of the staff! You really carnt go wrong placing your loved one in the care home because i for one slept easy on a night knowing he was in there being well looked after.

So a big massive thank you to each & everyone of you because you treat my dad with respect & dignity and i will miss you all

Reply from June Hoggart, General Manager at Barchester Briardene Care Home

Thank you so much for your heartfelt review. Your father was an absolute pleasure to care for and we really do miss him. I will pass this on to all the staff who will appreciate your lovely words. Thank you again, it means a lot to us all here at Briardene.

Review of Barchester Briardene Care Home from Robert S (Husband of Resident) published on 22 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I would like to acknowledge my gratitude and thanks to the staff of Briardene Care Home. Briardene has always gone the extra mile for the residents and their family members regarding care and activities. I was so happy to see my wife and residents enjoying visits from the miniature horse and the llamas. It brightens up everyone's day when people engage in activities for the mind and senses. Well done to Briardene, great teamwork. Thank you.

Review of Barchester Briardene Care Home from Michael K (Son of Resident) published on 28 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My Mum lived in the Billingham Briardene Care Home for around 5 years where she received the most amazing care. She had some complex and challenging needs but was always treated with the greatest of care, patience and respect.
Her room was spacious clean and comfortable - pretty much the perfect environment. The team invested so much time to really understand her and get to know the whole of her life from being a young girl growing up in York. They knew what she loved, getting photos of the places she lived or loved to help with engagement and conversations. The activity sessions were fantastic and many tailor made for Mum.

The care for Mum was amazing but equally the support for her family at all times was literally life changing. They took away the worries, the fears and the guilt of moving a parent into care. Over the years Mum was living in Briardene I probably spoke to all the staff who were some of the loveliest people you could meet and always had time for you. A huge thanks!

Reply from June Hoggart, General Manager at Barchester Briardene Care Home

Review of Barchester Briardene Care Home from S M (Relative of Resident) published on 26 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I would like to voice my heartfelt thanks to everybody. I am always welcomed with a friendly smile from arriving to leaving and always offered a drink,during my visits staff will pop in to see if we need anything. The atmosphere is welcoming and warm with a sense of happiness. The staff are all wonderful and everyone looks cared for. As for my aunt she is treated with dignity and respect and staff show sensitivity and dignity to her needs as she endures her very challenging dementia illness. Knowing your loved one is safe and cared for is a great comfort and I thank each and everyone of you here from the bottom of my heart.

Review of Barchester Briardene Care Home from J F (Son of Resident) published on 15 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My mother has been at Briardene for three years now and it's the best decision we made in order to meet her needs. The staff, as well as being kind and considerate , are so experienced and professional, which is rare to find these days.
I have seen a big improvement in my mothers health since she has been at Briardene, such is the quality of care and organisation of the home. She now has quality meals, her personal hygiene has improved, and she wears her own clean clothes at all times.

I can honestly say that due to the quality of care given by the staff at Briardene, my mother is living her best life and I can't thank the staff enough for giving her that!

Reply from June Hoggart, General Manager at Barchester Briardene Care Home

Thank you so much for your lovely review. I will make sure your lovely words are passed on to all the staff. We are proud to care for your mother, she is an absolute delight. Thanks again.

Review of Barchester Briardene Care Home from R I (Friend of Resident) published on 24 February 2026 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
My dear friend has late dementia and needs 1-1 care. I visit her regularly since she was placed at Billingham Briardene.

After visiting her at two former care homes I can only congratulate every aspect of care she is receiving with you. There really is no comparison, my friend is not able to communicate but we've been friends for 40 years I know her very well and know that she would if able to say a big thankyou to all concerned, I thank you on her and my behalf.

Reply from June Hoggart, General Manager at Barchester Briardene Care Home

Review of Barchester Briardene Care Home from Anne P (Wife of Resident) published on 18 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
After another dip in my husband's health, the care and attention to his every need, as always, went above and beyond. Rather than risking an admittance to hospital, I knew he would get everything he needed in house. By January, he was stable, by February, his eating and weight had improved.
In May 2026, my husband will have resided in Briardene Care Home for 5 years. I can guarantee that is due, in the main, to every member of staff.

From Management to Maintenance, they are exceptional. I have sung their praises over the years to anyone who would listen and will continue to do so.

Reply from June Hoggart, General Manager at Barchester Briardene Care Home

Review of Barchester Briardene Care Home from L M (Daughter of Resident) published on 22 January 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Briardene Care Home is a consistently well managed, well run and friendly Care Home. Communication is open, all staff - both front facing, / back office and inbetween are wonderful - with so many skills between them and with the shared ability of being able to well look after residents with complex needs.
Staff know well the complexities of each resident, including my Mum, which means they are well versed in spotting behavioural or physical changes. Thus meaning they are able to offer early intervention where necessary.
There are activities organised, there is a wellbeing team and my Mum always looks clean, well groomed and she is encouraged to eat and drink plenty of fluids. Staff have even kindly assisted with calls , especially when I have called from overseas.
If ever there are any qu's or concerns staff / senior staff members are always on hand to advise or inform.

Thank you so much for your ongoing diligence, patience and for all your skilled loving care.

Reply from June Hoggart, General Manager at Barchester Briardene Care Home

Fantastic Care Home! If your loved one is lucky enough to get a place in this care home then you can rest assured they will be well looked after and treated to the best care. My mum has been here for over 7 years and the staff are amazing! The care and love they give to her is above and beyond and this is also extended to our family. I can't thank them enough for the peace of mind it gives me.

Review of Barchester Briardene Care Home from Ann S (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 12 January 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We have nothing but praise for this care home.
CARE is the right word, everybody at this home care, not just for my mam but for all the family. The support and help they have given the whole family is immense, nothing was ever too much . Sadly my mum passed but even then the staff were still supporting us and so kind .
Mam was treated like a person. We always knew she was being cared for from the best, with knowledge and understanding of her needs. Based on our experience I would strongly recommend this home to anyone who has loved ones with advanced dementia.
Thank you just doesn't
seem enough but we thank you from the bottom of our hearts

Tony, Ann and family
