My mum was cared for well for the time she was at Bridge House Care Centre. Sadly, she passed away October 29th this year.
However, I am very disappointed that after being told Bridge House always sends a representative to a residents funeral, there was no one in sight on the day.
After Mum living
there for almost four years. I really was expecting better.

Mum is very well cared for at Bridge House Care Centre. She loves going into the garden and feeding the birds. There are daily activities, various parties, days out and musicians visiting. Her healthcare is followed very carefully by the nursing tea and the carers are very helpful and friendly, knowing
when to respect privacy. The house is kept extremely clean and laundry is handled well. Management and admin are always available if you need them. It's a lovely, happy place.

The minute I walked into Bridge House I knew my aunt would be well looked after. The staff were brilliant, kind, thoughtful and happy. Alas, my aunt was only there for a very short while but while here she was treated with kindness and the best of care. I couldn't have wished for a better place for
her to pass. On her last day, she was treated with dignity and kindness, while staff made her comfortable. I would give them 100 out of 50, the best care and kindest of people.

I visited the care home today as my friend has been admitted here. The reception I got when I arrived was lovely and the staff are lovely as well. I am so pleased my friend is here, I can feel the warmth and loveliness of all the people that work here; they are an asset to you as a company. I would
like to personally thank you for the help and assistance my friend is receiving, it is amazing. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Review from Michelle H (Daughter of Resident) published on 31 January 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father spent his final days at this nursing home, the care was outstanding, providing a safe, warm, kind environment in such difficult circumstances. They made sure my father was comfortable at all times and they were led by me for pain relief. The nurses who looked after my father treated him with
dignity, respect and compassion this was also extended to our family. All staff were so welcoming and always offered cups of tea and food to whoever visited. Staff including the management team wanted to make sure we were all cared for, the wrap-around care was so crucial at such a sad time. The room was always kept clean and tidy. The smallest criticism is the decoration in the rooms and the en-suite toilet, this needs a complete redesign and decoration it looks very rundown, however, the care and support surpassed the peeling paint and holes. I feel incredibly blessed my father passed away pain-free and peacefully. Thank you.

Review from Alison R (Daughter of Resident) published on 29 January 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father had been a resident at Bridge House Care Centre for 11 months before he sadly passed away. Caring is often a very thankless task, especially when caring for those living with dementia. However, the care and comfort my father and our family (Mum, Sister and myself) received during a very difficult
time was incredible and we were and are incredibly grateful. We were able to make his room a home from home with touches like the memory boxes outside of the room, which are very sympathetic to those residents who are unable to communicate and for all to see how residents lived their lives. Dad passed away in December and, despite it being a very distressing time, he and we were shown such care and compassion and were all incredibly well looked after before and after his passing. As a family, we have such fond memories of his time at Bridge House and often reflect how we miss seeing all the staff. We cannot thank them all enough and we will be forever grateful.

My father really enjoyed his experience in the Bridge House home. He was very well looked after, and all the staff knew him well and understood his needs. He was even taken out on trips. It was ideal for him.

Review from Lyn F (Friend of Resident) published on 13 August 2021 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I have only visited my friend in the Covid-19 designated area of the kitchen/garden of Bridge House since the lockdown in March 2020, therefore, I cannot comment on her own personal room. I would say, however, that the outside of her window is in need of re-painting and a cleanup. I had to fight my
way through bushes, brambles and weeds to see my friend through her window.
The visiting situation has not always been ideal; the kitchen door to the garden has been open during the hot weather, and given my friend's hearing issues is a nigh on impossible to have a conversation because of the traffic noise, likewise, when seated in the garden area. This area could also do with some maintenance given that visiting takes place there too.
My friend is always clean and neatly dressed; she tells me the staff do all they can to make her feel good. She has access to the hairdressing facility, which is a great boon to her.
The staff are always polite, courteous and go out of their way to ensure any requirements are met.

Thank you for the review, feedback is allowing us to constantly review and improve our services. At the time this review was submitted we were going through a management change – the new manager started days after the review submission.
While trying to prioritise every ‘service user’ (everyone is like a family member to us), please take into consideration external factors during the Covid Pandemic – Government guidelines such as local lockdowns, nursing home visiting restrictions, increased timeframes, etc. We strive as a team to keep the residents and staff safe!
Please take time and review Bridge House Care Centre again in a few weeks’ time.

Staff at Bridge House have always been very welcoming, caring, friendly and helpful during my father's stay for the past year. You all were his family and did everything you could to keep him safe, comfortable and happy. You put a smile on my father's face! We all thank you for all your efforts.
The
only issue was that my brother who lives abroad couldn't video call to talk and see my father. We were given a mobile number and promised video calls but the mobile was always switched off. Please offer this service to a family who cannot visit the home. It will make a big difference to the resident and family.
Also, I wanted my father to have a different room, as the room he was in got very hot in the summer, but this request was not given. I had to buy an air-con unit.
In spite of this, my family and I are very grateful for taking good care of my father who was seriously ill. You all did what I could not do. Thanks a million.
Take care and keep safe.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.711)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.711) out of 10 for Bridge House Care Centre is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 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 4.711 for Bridge House Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (96 Excellents x 5) + (27 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 128 Ratings = 4.711
  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 Bridge House Care Centre 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 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 35 registered maximum number of service users is 7, 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.
