  • Bredon View, Cheltenham
Bredon View is a friendly and energetic home which once comprised two separate houses, now converted to one larger building. The Manager and staff team are particularly resident focussed and this is reflected by the homely and inclusive atmosphere. Within an easy walking distance of Cheltenham Spa railway station, and close to main bus routes, travelling into town and further afield is simple, whilst a variety of shops are all close at hand. There is a variety of settings, including a conservatory and a veranda, available for residents to choose where to spend their time, as well as spacious lounges and dining rooms. The communal areas all look out onto the colourful gardens which have won prizes in the 'Cheltenham in Bloom' competitions for many years. A small hairdressing salon along with the usual assisted bathing and showering facilities enable the 26 residents to enjoy being pampered regardless of their ability/disability.

Feel an alarm would be useful in the lounge in case of emergency (to call a member of staff) more in the way of activities and trips out to stimulate the residents. Staff are excellent, very caring, friendly and attentive, be nice to have some homemade cakes for the residents.

My mum was a resident at Bredon View for over 2 years where she received excellent care and attention from all of the very caring staff. The manager and all staff were very approachable and nothing was too much trouble. Every day the residents were given a choice of menu for lunch and supper, and there
was always tea/coffee or squash available, not only for residents, but visitors as well who were always made to feel very welcome and encouraged to get involved with life at Bredon view. Mum used to love it when the music and movement lady came in and she enjoyed the sing-a long to all the old songs. Sadly my mum passed away at the end of November 2016 at Bredon View and everyone there has been kind and helpful at this sad time.

Current Review Score: 8.5 (8.510)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.5 (8.510) out of 10 for Bredon View is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.5 out of 5 from 2 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 5.000 for Bredon View is calculated as follows: ( (23 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 23 Ratings = 5

  • 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 3.51 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bredon View is based on 2 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 = 3.125

    • 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 26 registered maximum number of service users is 5.2. 2 Positive Reviews ÷ 5.2 = 0.385

  • 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.
