My Mother, Valerie has lived at Beechy Knoll for a few months now, from the meet and greet on move in day to the monthly care plan reviews I am involved with i have found the staff to be receptive, kind , caring and fully aware of the life choices for my Mum.
The change in my Mum is truly remarkable,
she is now engaging, happy , content and her anxiety and poor wellbeing have been eradicated.
Putting your loved one into a care homes is so stressful, the staff and management at Beechy Knoll eradicate the stress form the moment you walk through the front door. you feel part of a large family, the home is vibrant, alive and full laughter and happiness.
THANK YOU - The Beechy team.

Following a lengthy stay in hospital mum became a resident in Beechy Knoll in January. Her confidence was low, had lost a lot of weight and had difficulty walking. Since living here her confidence and general appearance has blossomed and her independence with walking has massivley improved. This is
due to the excellent staff who encourage and cannot do enough for mum. The activities are varied and cater for all abilities - mum is busy every afternoon. The food provided is also of a very high standard. The management are accessible, approachable and friendly and have been hugely supportive with form filling and helping mum to settle in. I cannot rate this home highly enough. Even our relatives have commented on the lovely home and staff.
Reply from Marina Glaves, Resgistered Manager at Beechy KnollThank you for taking time to review Beechy Knoll, the team are committed to providing residents with meaningful activities and strive to ensure everyone at the home has a happy and satisfying life.

My mum has been at Beechy Knoll for two months. During that time, she has been treated with respect, dignity, kindness and friendship. It has been a life-changing event for mum, but she has been encouraged and supported by the excellent staff to help her integrate into the home community. I, along with
my sister, have been able to discuss any concerns or worries with the staff who have been excellent in sorting any issues. Mum says the staff and talks highly of them, that is all we need to hear. Thank you.
Reply from Marina Glaves, Resgistered Manager at Beechy KnollThank you for this reveiw, I will share with the Team, Mum is a pleasure to be around and has made friends within the home, she relates well to staff and will always stop for a chat.

At very short notice we had to place mom in respite care. Mum had never been to this care home before, the one she was used to was not available. This was an extremely anxious time for us. When I contacted the manager she was very eager to support me & offered a room for the dates required. Although
this was very thoughtful I was still very anxious because mum is from an Afro Caribbean background It was important that mums cultural needs would be met. I was so touched to observe the kindness and warmth shown to mum on her arrival. During a conversation with the manager I had told her how mums faith is very important to her. The manager had clearly remembered this & mums name tag included a picture of a preacher& gospel choir.This was a heartfelt personal touch to ensure mum felt comfortable & welcomed. This was the start of a fantastic respite placement for my mum that continued to the end including welcoming mums church congregation to the care home. This was very important to mum.
Reply from Marina Glaves, Resgistered Manager at Beechy KnollThank you for taking the time to complete this reveiw, it was a pleasure to welcome Mum and her Church friends and family into Beechy Knoll. It was warming to see how Mum was involved in activities and was very comfortable chatting to other residents and staff. It would be a pleasure to welcome Mum again should she need any further support.

It looks very Cosy, but can be noisy on occasions, with residents and staff shouting in corridors.
I think they have a lot to deal with and could do with more staff on.
The staff appear lovely and try to help you as much as they can.
The conservatory is a very relaxing warm and Cosy place to go for
a family meeting. Or even just for a place to recharge.
Reply from Marina Glaves, Resgistered Manager at Beechy KnollThank you for taking the time to write the review, it can become noisy at times when everyone is moving around in the corridor. The staff team are very committed to the residents and there are always staff on duty. Visitors are welcome to use the conservatory and the garden area, we also encourage families to join their loved ones for a meal in the conservatory.

We can never thank the manager and the staff at Beechy enough for the kindness and care they showed to my sister, and to us, her family, particularly towards the end of her life. She had suffered from increasingly severe dementia throughout her stay there but she was always made to feel special and
encouraged to join in the many activities and celebrations with such patience and care from the staff. The food was excellent and everyone was always well presented.
Thank you so much to you all.

I have a mum and a sister in Beechy Knoll! I had no real prior experience of a care home setting and so, I honestly didn't know what to expect. Since day one, I can only say it has been amazing. I have turned up unannounced many times and the staff have always been amazing. My mum and sister are very
happy living here and I have no complaints whatsoever about anything.

My friend has lived in Beechy Knoll for a year. She is looked after by dedicated, caring staff who are always friendly to her, despite her sometimes challenging behaviour. She is always clean and well-dressed. The food is home-cooked and excellent, she has a weekly manicure from the excellent events
coordinator. The management and nursing staff are friendly, approachable and always willing to help. My friend could not be in a better place.

I can't praise all the staff at Beechy Knoll highly enough. Nothing is too much trouble and they really care about their residents and even us relatives too!
My mum has been here for over two years and then my dad has been here just over a year.
I know they are so well cared for and looked after and
knowing they're together means such a lot.
Everywhere is spotlessly clean and the food is amazing.
There are activities for the residents which they love.
I would definitely recommend Beechy Knoll to anyone.

When my mum moved into Beechy Knoll in December 2021 I wasn't able to be there with her to make sure she was okay. I had planned to visit her throughout 2022 but due to issues with my own health, I wasn't able to. Throughout that time when I spoke to her it was great to hear how happy and well she sounded.
When I was finally able to see her with my children last week it was such a relief to see how well she was doing for them and me. I have nothing but praise for the staff and the care they have given her and also the kindness they showed us on our visit. I look forward to visiting again soon.

Praise again to all of the dedicated staff at Beechy Knoll for their continued care for my mother and for arranging the appropriate medical attention to deal with the difficulties with her injured arm.

The focus on activities to engage all of the residents is also praiseworthy and your efforts are appreciated.

Heartfelt thanks to all staff at Beechy Knoll for their impeccable care given to my nephew over the past year. Your compassion, kindness, love and patience has been unwaving, enabling my nephew to be himself again and have the confidence to achieve his goal to live independently. Despite moving into
his own home a month ago, the staff continue to support him through his volunteering activities working alongside the social activites co-ordinator. Having this kind of ongoing support from staff who know my nephew and have a trusting relationship with him, is crucial to safeguarding his well being during this transitional period, and goes to show, the depth of understanding the Manager and staff have about his needs. He now has a secure foundation from which to keep moving forward with his life and that's all down to the staff at Beechy Knoll. As his family, we will be forever grateful.
Reply from Marina Glaves, Resgistered Manager at Beechy KnollThank you for this review, it has been a pleasure for the team at Beechy Knoll to watch your nephew grow in confidence and ability, he is a joy to have around, the other residents enjoy his visits and are always eager to participate in all the activities he is involved with, he is very welcome at any time.

I had to move my Mother from a previous care home where she was very unhappy. All this happened during the height of the COVID crisis so these were challenging times and she does have Alzheimer's. My own access to Beechy was limited rightly due to Covid restrictions but I measured the Home mainly on
mother's contentedness and she was- content and happy. She was always clean, well presented and generally happy. She was on occasion grumpy but isn't everyone! The home is well run and rigorously follows the Covid infection controls and administers medications and treatments properly and professionally. Furthermore, there are in-house entertainment parties cakes and things generally going on. It is a vibrant community at Beechy Knoll. Mother's case of Alzheimer's did progress to the point where Beechy could no longer cope, so she is now in a facility for more challenging behaviour - but notwithstanding this [which was professionally dealt with], I would be happier for Mum to still be there.
Reply from Marina Glaves, Resgistered Manager at Beechy KnollThank you for taking the time to complete this review, it was a pleasure supporting your Mum, she wasn't always happy as you say but she was part of the Beechy Family and is missed by everyone, please call in if you are passing it would be lovely to see you.

I have been unable to enter the home other than the conservatory due to the coronavirus restrictions, so I am not able to comment on my friend's room or facilities. What I can say is that the staff I have contact with are all helpful, courteous and caring. My friend is very antisocial and refuses to
mix with other residents. The staff continue to try to get her to take part in the social activities.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.529)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.529) out of 10 for Beechy Knoll is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 11 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 4.754 for Beechy Knoll is calculated as follows: ( (106 Excellents x 5) + (18 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 130 Ratings = 4.754
  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 4.775 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Beechy Knoll is based on 11 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 = 3.775
    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 40 registered maximum number of service users is 8, which has been reached with 11 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.

Before joining Pearlcare, I had worked with Sheffield City Council for 40 years in residential care; the last 20 years were in Management.

Our ethos is that this is the resident’s home, and we are privileged to support them to enable them to live their lives as unique individuals to the full.

We strive to ensure Beechy Knoll is welcoming, friendly, and safe to all who live, visit, and work here.


Biggest achievements whilst working at Beechy Knoll
Almost 5 years to the day, I commenced work at Beechy Knoll. The CQC rating was inadequate in all areas; CQC were to close us within two days, I attended meetings with Sheffield City Council and began the long road to recovery for Beechy Knoll. I recruited a Deputy Manager who had previously worked with me in SCC (Sheffield City Council) and an Administrator who I had also worked with; having built the Senior Team, we set about building the Care, Catering and Housekeeping Teams. Together we achieved a CQC rating of “GOOD”; what an achievement we had to celebrate. Since then, we have gone from strength to strength, building a good foundation to enable us to move forward.
Last Christmas, the residents and staff put on a Panto; they were involved in the organisation of it, making costumes, scenery and props. Cinderella’s Carriage was decorated by residents; the home was like a fairy princess castle and awash with glitter.


We celebrated one of our ladies' 105th birthday in July. After seeing this on our Facebook page, relatives were ringing asking if their Mum/Nan could have a party, as it seemed that everyone was enjoying themselves. So the summer has been awash with parties and entertainers; this has been amazing for everyone. We celebrate every occasion, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, birthdays, etc. The home is decorated to suit the theme of each occasion; residents are always involved in this.
This year we had a new conservatory; this has been an enormous asset to the home and is used daily for residents’ visitors and for craft sessions. Another addition to the home has been our newly completed Pod. This has totally transformed the garden area, with decking and comfortable seating; this has been enjoyed by residents, relatives, and staff throughout the summer.
