Review from Karen L (Daughter of Resident) published on 21 October 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I would like to let you know how satisfied I am with the way my father has been treated from his arrival to the present day in The Beeches Care Home. I have never known my father to be so happy and contented always smiling now when I visit. He tells me it is like staying in a hotel and does not want
to leave. Although he has dementia he is very clear on the way he is treated praising the staff and importantly the meals. I would like to say a big thankyou to everyone involved in my father's care.

Review from Dave (Son of Resident) published on 3 October 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum moved to the home after 2 months in hospital with severe kidney problems. Since May the staff have created for her a safe and caring environment, enabling mum to regain weight, put other health issues behind her and she now looks 10 years younger than she did last Christmas. The food is fine and
varied, the bedrooms light and airy. It has taken time (and will take some more time) for mum to adjust from living independently for so long but the patience of staff is exemplary and nothing is too much trouble for them to make life easier for the residents. After nearly 6 months, I believe our family to be very grateful to the home for the care and services they provide, all contributing to a safe haven for an 85-year-old.

Could not expect any better service at Mum's 80th birthday party. Everyone enjoyed themselves and the arrangement and organisation of the party were excellent. The staff did not fault on anything.

Review from R E S (Friend of Resident) published on 15 September 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My friend has been in this home for about 5 years until her passing on September 1st. She was always treated with respect and affection by all the staff members. They all did their best to keep her happy and contented, even making separate meals for her when she wouldn't eat.
In the days prior to her
passing, each staff member took the time to sit with her and talk to her so she wasn't alone, something I really appreciate. I have no qualms in recommending The Beeches for all the love and care the staff give to their residents.

Review from Julia F (Daughter of Resident) published on 1 July 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
As soon as we walked in with my mum, we felt welcome (mum was in for respite). The food was good and plenty of it at different times. Went one day, a young lady had brought small animals in for residents to hold them if they wished. Our mum enjoyed this. Staff always welcoming and busy looking after
residents. As I was going on holiday I felt a lot better leaving mum there. We went back to the Garden Party on the 17 June 2016, there was a singer on and everyone was joining in the singing, and a lovely buffet.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Dad and I struggled to keep him at home, dreading the idea of a care home. The Beeches has completely changed our thinking because the care is so individualized and the atmosphere so happy. Dad feels special because of the personal attention he receives. He has always been finicky with food but loves
his meals. His room is bright and clean, his laundry taken care of and he has had a good haircut and foot care so he feels well-groomed. He has been taken out. He definitely wants to stay.

I think the staff work very hard, they have a lot of patience with the residents. The home is always fresh and clean. My husband enjoys the meals, and activities. We have enjoyed several parties at the home as a family, and have joined in with Bingo and singing sessions. All in all a lovely home.

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.152)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.152) out of 10 for The Beeches Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.3 out of 5 from 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 9 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 4.252 for The Beeches Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (54 Excellents x 5) + (51 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (6 Poors x 2) + (2 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 119 Ratings = 4.252
  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 4.9 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Beeches Care Home is based on 9 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 = 3.9
    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 32 registered maximum number of service users is 6.4, which has been reached with 9 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.
