Review from S D (Daughter of Resident) published on 12 April 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both my parents have lived in Brantley. Mum (living with Alzheimer’s) has lived there for several years, and the care she receives has been consistent and excellent; nothing is too much trouble. Mum, sadly, doesn’t recognise me, but I have seen her face light up when familiar staff members interact
with her, which is so reassuring. Dad was in Brantley for palliative care at the end of his life. He chose to live there, having been impressed by the care given to Mum and appreciating the genuine warmth that he was shown by staff when visiting. As a resident, he had nothing but high praise for the whole staff, who went above and beyond to ensure his comfort and happiness. It is evident that each member of the team puts the well-being of the residents at the heart of everything they do. In my experience, residents’ families feel part of the ‘Brantley Family' and are welcomed and supported by the staff team. Brantley, with its warm, friendly atmosphere, really is a home from home.

I would highly recommend this loving and caring home, where my mother has been a resident for over a year. I have nothing but praise for the whole team for the way they have dealt with the coronavirus situation. Alongside their normal high standards of care, they have been very inventive with their
activities programme to keep all residents busy during this difficult time when no visitors have been allowed. Regular video chats have been arranged between residents and their friends and families, so nobody needs to have felt totally alone. A big well done, and thank you to all the amazing staff.

All staff are helpful, caring and sympathetic to the needs of both service user and carer.
The building is attractively decorated and well furnished. Maintenance of grounds and building appears excellent.
All staff are professional in their work and cheerful management is good with excellent leadership.

Review from Steve F (Son of Resident) published on 8 August 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I would recommend this home to anyone who wants the reassurance that the well-being of the residents is of paramount importance. The staff are absolutely fantastic and totally understand the definition of care. It was my Mum's birthday in June and they made a cake and good fuss of her. The home takes
the time to find out the background of their residents so they can communicate and make everyone welcome. The peace of mind this gives me knowing Mum is being well looked after is absolutely essential and I can't thank or praise the management and staff highly enough.
Reply from Dolores Phillips, Manager at Brantley ManorThank you for your very positive feedback and we shall continue with our excellent standard of care. We welcome all feedback.

I have been coming to this care home for over 2 years on a weekly basis. The whole of the staff work as a team. They are very welcoming and efficient in everything they do. Any questions are answered as quickly as possible. Cannot praise this home enough. Obviously, this home is so efficiently run because
of all concerned in the residents' care and attention to each and everyone as an individual with different needs. I have been at different times of the day and have got to know the staff. Anybody looking for a care home for one of their loved ones could not ask for any better.

My wife has been very very well looked after during her stay at Brantley Manor. The staff treat her with dignity and care all the time.


One main point is that my wife is very happy there and looks forward to attending the Manor.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have ticked all the boxes as excellent. There may be slight lapses at some isolated times but absolute perfection is hard to maintain. My wife has been a high dependency resident for almost two years and in that time I have never had grounds for a complaint. I am permitted to visit my wife without
previous notification, greeted well and provided with hospitality. I would like to point out, I make these comments without prejudice to any future opinions I may have - excellent to date - may it long continue.
Reply from Dolores Phillips, Manager at Brantley ManorThank you for your positive feedback. We shall do our upmost to continue to offer on going high-quality care for our residents and hospitality to our relatives who come to visit. We pride ourselves on our open door policy to anyone who comes to Brantley Manor.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Mum has lived at Brantley Manor for almost a year and is more content than I have known her be for a number of years. The staff are hard working, patient, caring, empathetic and nothing is too much trouble. From the management right through to the kitchen, I love the way staff will tell you that
the home belongs to the residents, they (staff) just work there. It is warm and comfortable. The food is cooked on the premises and residents are offered a variety of good meals.
Families are welcomed anytime of the day and are almost always offered refreshments.
I cannot speak too highly of the staff who do a difficult job. The residents are treated with dignity and respect and I would be happy to recommend Brantley Manor to anyone.
Reply from Dolores Phillips, Manager at Brantley ManorThank you for your positive comments - we will endeavour to give the best of care and ensure our residents are our priority at all times and we do feel very privileged to work with them and we always ensure that it is their home which we respect.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My aunt has been in this care home for 11 and a half years. The home now specialises in dementia care and our experience is that they are good at it. Our visits are generally unannounced and we have not come across untoward matters. The manager, deputy manager and administrator are easy to talk to.
The staff are cheerful and helpful and appear genuinely fond of my aunt. The surroundings are comfortable and there is an ongoing refurbishment. Several years ago when she still had some cognition my aunt said she never wanted to move from the care home. They look after her well.

Review from Lena H (Daughter of Resident) published on 17 March 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum was admitted to Brantley Manor in Dec 2015 for respite care with a view to long term care. She was getting more unable to cope in her own home even with carers coming in 3 times a day. For the first few days in Brantley Manor she didn't want to get up out of bed (which is what was happening at
home). After the first few days mum was encouraged to come to the dining room for meals.This was quickly followed by her getting up each day, washed or showered, fully dressed and walking more. I cannot believe the difference that the care home has made to my mum. She is so much like her old self. Mum made the decision to stay long term herself. The care of the staff is amazing.
Reply from Gill Page, Administrator at Brantley ManorWe are very pleased that the lady has settled and you feel that she has returned to her old self. We are very proud of our staff and the commitment that we show to all our residents.

My husband was taken into this care home quite suddenly. It was his first experience of them and he was worried. The staff were so kind, welcoming and caring. His room, recently decorated was superb. There were lots of day rooms, a lovely dining area and conservatory. All well furnished with nice homely
touches. Everywhere was nice and clean. He enjoyed the food and if it was something he didn't like he was offered an alternative, even seconds if he really enjoyed it. He had a good week at Brantley Manor and would most certainly return there, quite happily.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.582)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.582) out of 10 for Brantley Manor is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 19 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.607 for Brantley Manor is calculated as follows: ( (145 Excellents x 5) + (70 Goods x 4) + (9 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 224 Ratings = 4.607
  2. 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 4.975 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Brantley Manor is based on 19 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 3.975
    2. 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 33 registered maximum number of service users is 6.6, which has been reached with 19 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
