We can't tell you how lucky we feel to have hit the jackpot first time with this lovely care home. They have been looking after our beautiful mum who has Alzheimer's for the last few months. Mum's care is outstanding. She is cared for, loved and most importantly, safe. If you are considering The
Beeches then don't hesitate. There are lots of activities for fun and stimulation, trips out, cinema excursions, movie days, flower arranging, crafts, gardening. The list is endless. There is even a hairdressers and a 'cafe'.

We visited my sister, coming from Canada, between April 6 to 20. We visited my sister several times during that time. We found all of the staff and carers very friendly and helpful who assisted us in anything we asked or needed. My sister's care was first-class and very caring. The home was clean, the
food was first class, we couldn't have asked anything more, our sister is in great hands, and we couldn't ask for anything more. Highly recommend. Thank you.

Congratulations on gaining a food hygiene rating 5, from a 4. Richly deserved. The management and team are very productive in their roles and couldn't wish

On walking into the care home it smells nice and fresh and looks clean. Rooms upstairs are cleaned daily. My husband seems to enjoy the food and there is a good choice. He appears to enjoy the activities. All staff are very professional and friendly and approachable. Either hee manager or deputy manager
are available to speak to. I am happy to leave my husband in the care of the staff.

Myself and my children visited my aunty at the weekend, we are from Essex. I was very emotional seeing her but I was very impressed by the care the staff give. They allowed me to stay with her all day, made me hot drinks, even offered me some lunch, I saw her lovely room all perfect. She loves the music
on the TV and loves her food. Seeing someone you love contented was a great relief to us all. Thank you ladies for taking care of her and all her needs.

Imagine being informed by medical staff on New Year's Day that your elderly mother cannot stay another night in her own home, and you need to find a care home immediately. We were then given a long list of local homes to call. The first two that we called could not help, as there were no senior staff
working that day. A third said they would call me back, but never did. I struck gold with the fourth call to The Beeches Care Home. I could not even finish explaining the issue when they said just come immediately. We were so relieved, and delighted. We were greeted at the door when we arrived, and nothing was too much trouble, and never was during the 17 night stay before mum sadly passed away peacefully, with a member of staff holding her hand. Every single member of staff is caring, considerate and thoughtful, and we cannot praise them enough for what they did for mum and us as a close-knit small family. The home is clean, and efficiently run with an air of calmness, and the rooms are lovely.

The Beeches is a friendly care home where carers treat residents with kindness and respect. It is under new management this year and is being well-ked by an experienced and proactive senior team. The appointment of an amazing activities coordinator means there's lots going on to break up the days for
residents and events for families to get involved in too.

I find the staff pleasant, welcoming and efficient when dealing with health problems.
Residents are encouraged to join in activities and watching visiting performers.
The rooms are good overall, but the en-suites need modernising to a better standard.

I have just recently lost my dad in there. He declined so fast and had to stay there for approximately 4-5 months. All the staff were brilliant with him and his care was exceptional. I can't thank them enough and I know he was happy there. They now have my mother there and she is obviously grieving
and they are taking very good care of her. Thank you everyone.

On visiting today 18/10 to see my mother-in-law, I was pleased to see a coffee morning in aid of breast cancer. I saw it was promoted on The Beeches social media account. Really enjoyed coffee and cake. The new social media page is a great way to see what's planned for the future and see pictures of
previous events like the pirate day that happened, loved the parrot pictures and looked great. Well done to all involved.

I feel that the care and attention given to my father is excellent.
As I live more than 200 miles away, I visit every few months. Over the past few months I feel that with the change in management, I notice an improvement as I walk in with regard for cleanliness, more activities etc. Without exception
all carers do a magnificent job which is greatly appreciated.

My mom has been a resident and for 4 months now the very first time we arrived we were met with smiles and friendly faces. They really do care and it's good to know that my mum is very happy in her new surroundings and that when we go to see her mom is very well looked after and always with clean clothes
on and very clean herself. When we leave we know mom is cared for and we how we would want for ourselves.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.719)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.719) out of 10 for The Beeches Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 19 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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 4.719 for The Beeches Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (170 Excellents x 5) + (40 Goods x 4) + (11 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 221 Ratings = 4.719

  • 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 The Beeches Care Home is based on 19 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 64 registered maximum number of service users is 12.8, which has been reached with 19 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.
