From the beginning of when Mum came in for respite, the staff were lovely. Accessible, easy to contact, sympathetic and always had time to listen. Procedures to access respite were quick and straightforward. Mum felt that there could be more structure/routine to when drinks, meals and cleaning, so that
was clear to what was happening and when. All the staff were kind and caring (no matter how busy) to both Mum and our family.

We were able to celebrate Christmas with my grandmother at Brampton View Care Home. They set up a wonderful dining area in The Library room where we were able to have an amazing Christmas breakfast. All staff were outstanding, nothing was too much trouble for them and the food was delicious. Thank you
for making our Christmas with our grandmother so memorable.

On the 10th October 2022, I picked up my father from Brampton View Home after a respite break of just over two weeks in a condition that was of great concern. Although he suffers from Alzheimer's he had walked into the home, be it with the aid of a walking stick and when collected came out in a wheelchair,
very frail, somewhat confused, unable to stand or walk and as discovered when he got home was wearing a nappy.
I had asked when picking him up if he had an infection as he was showing typical signs and was assured, he did not have such. In less than 24 hours he was admitted to the hospital with severe dehydration and a water infection. As with anyone being admitted to the hospital questions are asked about the days running up to admittance which I was unable to answer as he had been residing in the home. Nearly three weeks after putting in an access date request his care records arrived which were of a very poor standard and shockingly no medication or nutrition details.

Since the recent change in management, the home has the most amazing feeling. Staff are happy, activities are varied, and the quality of life in the home is back to the lively home it should be! Seeing the staff dancing around the reception in the morning and singing to residents whilst providing care.
I am a volunteer and have come back to support the home now that life has changed after Covid. Well done to all the carers and management team. I look forward to visiting regularly and helping out as we recently have for an amazing wedding held at Brampton.

My husband has been on Signal Walk for 15 months.
When permanent staff on duty he is well cared for. He is treated with respect and as part of the family.
He has chosen not to join in with the daily entertainment but it has been provided majority of the time. Interrupted by covid restrictions.
Has had to move onto the dementia unit which for me is sad, but the support I had from the staff has been amazing, and I can't thank them enough.
The cleaners, catering and reception staff have been wonderful to him and nothing was too much trouble.
Thanks to the Manager and the management and entertainment team for a wonderful wedding reception created for my husband to join in our son and daughter-in-law's wedding celebrations. Thanks to every one of the Brampton View team, whatever role they play.

I loved how the staff showed genuine concern and genuine love for Dad. They were able to share some lovely stories with us and there was real warmth and it felt like he had a new family at Barchester Brampton View Care Home. They looked after all the family in his last few days and that helped us to
cope with his passing. All staff from nurses, care assistants, activities, reception, catering and cleaning were respectful, kind and caring and demonstrated a great balance of professional and friendly and supportive. Oh, and management were great too - nearly forgot!

Reply from Andrea Newman, Customer Relationship Manager at Barchester Brampton View Care Home

Thank you for your kind words. We are very pleased you gave us the opportunity to care for your father and support your family over the years he was with us, and especially in his last few days here at Brampton View. He was a true gentleman.

From the moment Dad first stepped into Barchester Brampton View Care Home he was welcomed and cared for. One of the receptionists walked arm in arm with him down the corridor, chatting away. Dad had found not just a place for retirement but a new home. He thrived there, accepted for who he was - a gentleman
and a 'character'.
Thank you to so many of the staff there who genuinely helped him live out his last three years surrounded by people who had his best interests at heart and who loved him for who he was.

Reply from Andrea Newman, Customer Relationship Manager at Barchester Brampton View Care Home

Thank you for your very kind words which I will pass on to our team members. It was a pleasure to care for your father. He was a kind person, a true gentleman with a lovely smile, and we all enjoyed chatting to him. We are sorry for your loss but pleased we could make his last years comfortable and enjoyable here at Brampton View.

This has been the most wonderful home for my mother to spend the last year of her life in. The care given to her was exemplary. Mum who was immobile and communication with difficulty was treated with great respect. She was kept spotlessly clean, as was her room and beautifully dressed and comfortable.
Her dietary needs were well catered for. She was cured of a very nasty bedsore (received elsewhere) after a very short time at Brampton View.
All the staff, nurses, care assistants and receptionists were friendly, caring and proficient. During lockdowns, I could facetime every day. When I visited I was always made so welcome. The home is also beautiful like a very nice hotel. Excellent

I came here to convalesce following a server heart attack. At first, I felt very unwell, but the staff cared for me with tact and patience. After a week, I began to feel better and now after two weeks, I'm ready to go home. Staff are cheerful, helpful and kind. Food is excellent - of high quality. The
soups are magnificent! Service in the dining room is good, housekeeping and laundry also. Management has been helpful in offering extra help eg - visits and hairdressing. This is a good place to be. I'm going home but might well return one day. Thank you.

My Mum has been at Brampton View for nearly five years. In this time she has been looked after extremely well. Staff are very conscientious and look after the residents like family.

My mother was extremely well looked after in the last few months of her life, the nurses and carers were loving and kind to her, and made sure she was comfortable, especially in her last few days. My sister and I are forever grateful to the staff, for their care and understanding shown to us and our
families at what was a very trying time, especially when the Covid-19 problem started to take effect. We could not have asked for better.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

My dad had been a resident at Brampton View Nursing for almost 18-months. He had his 100th birthday while being resident and was always treated with great respect, kindness, understanding and certainly treated with dignity at all times.
Being blind and hard of hearing became a problem for him to interact
with other residents. I visited him daily and fed Dad his lunch - some meals he thoroughly enjoyed from the kitchen. Generally, I was informed of every medical/health issues he had on my visits.
Rooms were cleaned on a regular basis, and the whole establishment smelt fresh on arrival and looked amazing.
Lots of banter with staff/carers, this it made him feel really comfortable and “at home” in his surroundings.
Suggestions: need more conversationalist interactivity with some residents; stimulating time.
Dads needs were certainly taken care of during his stay, and for this, I am truly happy and very grateful.
Laundry service a nightmare - continual problems of missing /lost garments.ms of missing /lost garments.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.635)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.635) out of 10 for Barchester Brampton View Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 55 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 54 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 4.635 for Barchester Brampton View Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (455 Excellents x 5) + (156 Goods x 4) + (36 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 650 Ratings = 4.635

  • 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Barchester Brampton View Care Home is based on 54 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 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • 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 88 registered maximum number of service users is 17.6, which has been reached with 54 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • 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.

Moving into the activities team has allowed me to spend more time with the residents and give them more enjoyment and happiness as we create and organise the activities and events that caters to the needs, abilities and requests of our residents. It allows me to see the joy that we bring and meet families and friends who can give us more insight to the individual residents their history, hobbies, interests and what roles they had to allow us to create and plan activities that will be of interest to them.


As a child I was always drawn to help others, with a cheery character I had been asked on various occasions to join the activities team and I’m so glad that I chose to change over. Whilst I am passionate about my work, I also value my time at home with my family and spend as much time I can with my parents. I enjoy my time out walking with my 2 dogs, Coco and Bobby.

Job Title: Administrator

Joined: 2025

Hello, my name is Hari, I joined Brampton View as the Administrator in 2025. With over 15 years of experience in administration and finance, I have developed a strong foundation in these fields. My journey began when I relocated to the UK in 2009 to pursue a degree in finance management, which I successfully completed in 2013.


Throughout my career, I have worked in for a number years to the care sector, where I have had the privilege of providing invaluable support to residents, their families, and staff. My first role was in the finance department of a smaller care home, where I dedicated six years.


I am passionate about delivering the highest quality of work for our residents, their families, suppliers, and staff. After gaining experience in London, I relocated to my now hometown in Buckinghamshire, where I continued my work in administration and finance within the care sector.


I embraced an opportunity with Barchester Healthcare, which not only brought me closer to home but also allowed me to spend more precious time with my wife and two little girls. Additionally, I am actively involved in supporting my local Hindu temple, where I dedicate my time to teaching and helping others on their faith journey.


I look forward to continuing my work at Brampton View and contributing positively to the lives of those we care for.
