Outstanding throughout. Having experienced another (apparently) great care home this is by far superior. The staff have made my mother's time here fantastic. She is a different woman. The manager runs a tight ship. Professional and highly personable. Just superior

Bramwell Care Home is a very welcoming place, the staff are very caring and friendly. They treat all the residents with dignity and always seem to be organising events, or receiving visitors to entertain everybody. The rooms are a very high standard and very clean, with excellent food at meal times,
and there are plenty of other tea rooms, gardens etc when visiting. Overall the staff are excellent and we are reassured that my father-in-law is in the best hands, safe and well looked after.

We moved my father who has dementia into Bramwell Care Home on May 2nd. From the first day the staff + management made him feel so welcome, the room is beautifully clean with lovely furniture. The staff are so nice & friendly and caring. We like the fact that the staff are from different cultures &
backgrounds. The food looks so nice and nutritious, theres always refreshments available too. My father is happy and we as a family are extremely happy that he is being cared for in a secure & safe home. There are daily activities, trips on a bus which are very well organized.
Thank you for giving our family peace of mind, and the support we are so grateful.

Mum has been at Bramwell for almost 5 years. During that time she has been very well cared for. The staff are hard-working, supportive and caring and are always approachable. There is a great deal of thought put into activities, to keep residents active and involved. I am so pleased I found this care
home and would recommend it with no hesitation.

We are so impressed with Bramwell Care Home. From the first visit to look around we found all the staff to be so friendly, welcoming and went out of their way to make my father and our family to feel 'at home'. The home and the garden is so beautiful, spotlessly clean, modern and there is such a relaxing
atmosphere. But it is the staff that make this home exceptional. Each and every one of them goes above what is expected of them and makes this home so special.

I can't say what a great place Bramwell is; words don't do it justice. The staff, the manager are so kind and thoughtful. The difference in my husband is wonderful. He smiles, laughs, and mixes in which he never did at home, although I took him out 3-4 times a week.
10 stars.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.943)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.943) out of 10 for Bramwell Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 107 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 107 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 4.943 for Bramwell Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (1212 Excellents x 5) + (60 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 1278 Ratings = 4.943

  • 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 Bramwell Care Home is based on 107 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 93 registered maximum number of service users is 18.6, which has been reached with 107 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.
