Review from F C (Friend of Resident) published on 28 December 2022 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
The home and staff show enormous care and provide a regular and varied programme of events. I felt supported while caring for my friend from church.
With the recent pandemic, it was not easy but their care to protect the residents was excellent.
↩Reply from Ajit Matharu, Home Manager at Bramley Grove Care Centre

Overall Experience
The care, understanding, and friendly approach given to my husband was absolutely above and beyond my expectations. I can truly say both myself and our family were completely at ease to visit and to see the attention given, day and night. Bless each and every one of the staff. Bless you, all.

Review from Roy G (Son of Resident) published on 6 December 2021 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
Accidentally finding out my mom had lost a dramatic amount of weight and no one from Bramley Grove informing any family member, I moved her out immediately.
The results were astonishing. The frail skeletal, grubby clothed, untouched hair shock when we first saw her emerge from Bramley Grove were reversed completely.
In my opinion, this place is a disgrace and unfit for purpose.
The dramatic change in my mom after moving to a caring well run care home says everything to me about how appallingly my mom was treated at Bramley Grove.
How they could let a senior citizen get so thin and unhappy beggars belief.
I found out during an assessment she was showing signs of anxiety during her stay. No one there told us this either. I also found out she needed prompting to eat. This was obviously due to unhappiness and anxiety as she has never needed prompting before or after her stay at Bramley. This again was not relayed to any family member.

She had many UTIs followed by falls.

This is a completely disingenuous review. This gentleman had his concerns fully investigated both internally and via the local authority adult safeguarding team. His complaints were not upheld. Notable that every single rating he has provided is at its lowest possible score despite for example, the...
