The most amazing, caring staff who are always smiling and making sure my grandad has the best possible care.
As soon as I walked in and met the staff I knew this was the place for my grandad to stay to feel safe and comfortable.
The difference in him in such a short space of time is amazing and I
am so happy we found Bramwell Care Home.

My father has been at Bramwell for a year, and in that year, my experience of the home is excellent. The staff are very professional, caring, kind and well trained. His room is like home from home, and I feel very confident that he is receiving very good care and support. My father is always engaged
in activities in and outside the home, keeping him happy, safe and stimulated. The home communicates regularly on all aspects of his care and support.

After two months and considerate care from the staff, my wife is now becoming more aware of her situation and taking notice of the events taking place around her daily. I am appreciative of the patience shown by the staff while at the same time coping with difficult and complex needs. The various activities
are most important and the encouragement given helps with the resident developing more confidence.

I visited in December several times around Christmas. Staff work very hard and are kind and caring.
We also hired their room for my grandparent's birthday party and had a wonderful time.
We also bought the family dog and he was very well received.
He has tried another local home and has been much
happier since joining and staying at this home.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.956)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.956) out of 10 for Bramwell Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 107 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.956 for Bramwell Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (1226 Excellents x 5) + (50 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 1279 Ratings = 4.956
  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 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:

    1. 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
    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 93 registered maximum number of service users is 18.6, which has been reached with 107 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.

I enjoy pushing myself to grow and learn more, and the strong teamwork around me helps me achieve my goals.
