Review from Mel G (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 9 November 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My grandad was transferred here on palliative care and had been here three/four weeks before he passed away Monday night.
During his time on Cherries, he was made extremely comfortable and treated with love and respect.
All the staff here have been extremely supportive, helpful and friendly and overall.
a lovely experience under the circumstances.
When we had a call with sad news, the staff were compassionate, supportive and sympathetic with us and were fantastic, they haven’t pushed to get us to clear Grandad's belongings and said when we are ready is fine with them. His room was locked securely with his belongings as his things were safe until we were ready to collect.
Would like to say a massive thank you to everyone who cared for Grandad in this short time, especially one member of staff who kept us updated with how Grandad was doing.
Thanks again.

I find the management and carers extremely friendly and pleasant. The home is very clean and fresh. The meals are just the right size and filling. Whenever I visit everyone always has tea or biscuits and I often get offered a drink as well. Bedrooms and ensuite are clean every time I go. The outlook
from the rooms is pleasant.
I would recommend this care home.

Review from M B (Daughter of Resident) published on 19 October 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother came for respite for two weeks, I was very impressed with the care staff, as being a long-term carer myself, I was looking for any problems that could arise. Mum seems happy most of the time. Mum could be quite demanding at times and I spoke to the carers and they understood her personality
very quickly. We have decided that Mum should stay so I can look after my elderly father.
I know my mum is getting for more stimulation there with different activities than she ever would at home... Thank you to the staff, they are always very pleasant with such a demanding job. Especially on a dementia floor.

Review from Sandy A (Daughter of Resident) published on 12 October 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother was a resident of Alexandra House Care Home, Strawberries Unit, for two weeks respite care this September 2023.
This was the first time my mum had gone into respite care and I was anxious and worried about leaving her. However, we were met by friendly, welcoming staff who not only took the
time to settle Mum in but also provided me the support and reassurance I needed to leave her in their care.
The accommodation was adequate and clean.
My mum was well cared for during her stay, enjoying her time engaging with staff and other residents alike.
Thank you to all in Strawberries, particularly one member of staff, for looking after Mum so well and making it an enjoyable experience for her.

My father has been in your care since March and we, as a family, have been very happy with your care home. Many excellent, great staff members and I have only come across one that was rude and a little unprofessional but it happens. Some have bad days, I work for the local authority myself and understand
the pressures etc.

The home is a happy place. The staff are excellent. The atmosphere is great. My father was very happy there. The residents are always the priority, the food is good and the rooms are excellent. I was very confident my father would be well looked after, and he is!
My father passed away at this home.
He was unhappy when he wasn't there. They let him enjoy his time. He was always supported and cared for. Always clean and tidy. Loved to sit in the garden. The staff I dealt with and the ones who looked after him were excellent.

The staff were very friendly and took great care of their residents. My mum had to stay in Alexandra House as she was in recovery, having broken her hip.
Alexandra House allowed the family peace of mind.
In my mum's words, she said she felt rested, comfortable, safe and secure. It was also company
for her and much better than sitting in a hospital ward which quite often was on her own.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.820)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.820) out of 10 for Alexandra House 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 28 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 28 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 4.820 for Alexandra House is calculated as follows: ( (279 Excellents x 5) + (37 Goods x 4) + (11 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 327 Ratings = 4.82
  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 Alexandra House is based on 28 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 106 registered maximum number of service users is 21.2, which has been reached with 28 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.

Carly Harris

Job Title: Home Manager

I began my career in the care sector in 2008, and over the past 17 years, I’ve had the opportunity to work in a variety of settings, including hospitals. I started as a care assistant and gradually progressed through roles as a senior carer, deputy manager, and now, home manager.


I’ve been part of the Alexandra House family for the past five years, initially joining as a Night CTL before becoming Deputy Manager. Many of you may already know me from the Strawberry Unit or from seeing me around the home.


What truly sets Alexandra House apart for me is the strong sense of family among our team and the unwavering commitment to putting our residents first. Our staff go above and beyond every day, and I’m proud to be part of such a dedicated group.


My door is always open, and I look forward to meeting you, whether it’s during a visit with your loved one or at one of our monthly relatives' meetings.

Peter

Peter Nunn

Job Title: Home Administrator Joined: 2015

I have been in the role for almost 10 years; February 2025 will mark my tenth year with Runwood Homes. I really have enjoyed my time to date with Alexandra House. We have a great team here, and it’s a pleasure to work with them; also, the management team is very supportive. I like pretty much all aspects of the role; it is a very demanding and rewarding role.


In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my partner and children. I also enjoy sports, mainly football and tennis; I am a bit of a Tottenham Hotspur supporter.

Marion

Marion Walker

Job Title: Receptionist Joined: 2020

I have been a receptionist at Alexandra House for 4 years. I really enjoy my role and all that goes with it. I enjoy seeing people every day; I like interacting with relatives and residents.


In my spare time, I am currently decorating my new flat, which I enjoy doing.

Lee Smith

Job Title: Housekeeper Joined: 2020

My name is Lee, I’ve been a Housekeeper at Alexandra House for 3 years. I was domestic staff for 1 year, and I was promoted by our home manager, who has supported me with settling into my current role. I enjoy my job and the people I work with.


In my spare time, I do my housework and walk my dogs.

Martin

Martin Mares

Job Title: Head Chef Joined: 2020

My name is Martin. I grew up in Slovakia and spent 4 years studying to be a chef before moving to the UK. I came to the UK for a holiday and decided I liked it here and wasn’t going home! I took a role in retail to gain confidence in the English language before joining a renowned care provider as a kitchen assistant. Within 3 months I had advanced to chef and then very quickly to Head Chef.  It was a whole new experience learning about English cuisine and our quirky likes and dislikes; baking was a completely new experience, as I had not experienced this at home. My passion for my chosen career kept me in this role for 6 years, working across three different sites. I took the opportunity to progress to Regional Chef which involved menu planning, audits, recruitment, training, and writing policies, a role I continued in for 4 years.


I happened to see an advert for Head Chef at Alexandra House, which is very local to me and decided it was time to go for a change. I joined Alexandra House 4 months ago and have seen joining Runwood as a great career move. I love the friendliness of the team and the great management of Alexandra House, where I feel a highly valued member of the team.


I feel passionately that food is of the utmost importance to our residents and should be a high-quality, enriching experience at every mealtime for all. I aim to accommodate individual tastes, and if there is a particular food that a resident favours that is not on the menu, I will ensure we make it available for them. It is important for me to meet new residents when they arrive to discuss their preferences and any allergies alongside any needs for a modified diet.


“My plan for the summer is to hold international food days; Italian is my favourite to cook! Tasting days for the residents are something I am extremely excited about; let their tastes help steer the direction of our menus.”

I began my journey at Alexandra House as a care assistant in 2012 and have worked my way up through various roles to become Deputy Manager.


I truly enjoy collaborating with our team to deliver the highest quality, person-centred care to all our residents. Every aspect of my role brings me joy, as it allows me to make a meaningful difference in their lives.


In my spare time, I am an active member of my church, where I also sing in the choir.
