  • The Normanhurst Nursing Home, Bexhill-on-Sea
The Normanhurst Nursing Home has a comfortable, clean, homely atmosphere. The home is adjacent to the Residential Hotel on a corner site overlooking the award winning beaches. Although the nursing home is not on the seafront, some rooms do afford a sea view. However, guests can be escorted along the beautiful Bexhill seafront and the site is only a very short distance from the De La Warr Pavilion, local shops and amenities.

The Nursing Home has a small homely lounge with television, an intimate dining room overlooking the private gardens and conservatory, allowing residents to enjoy the gardens whatever the weather. For those less able to utilise these facilities, rooms can be made to feel more like home by guests bringing their own possessions.

Review from Dee F (Daughter of Resident) published on 26 August 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has been in the nursing home since January 2022. When she entered the home she was frail, having been in and out of the hospital with pneumonia and other infections. She was unable to walk with her frame, unable to read as a result of eye infections and very, very low. Today you see a very
different ninety-eight-year-old. She walks with her frame, joins in activities, and is reading and doing crosswords. This is all down to the fantastic care she is receiving. I cannot speak highly enough of this experience.
Reply from Kathleen Renner, Duty Manager at The Normanhurst Nursing HomeWe thank you for your continued support, and as always, look forward to welcoming you on your next visit.

Current Review Score: 9.0 (8.997)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.0 (8.997) out of 10 for The Normanhurst Nursing 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 4.7 out of 5 from 8 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 4.347 for The Normanhurst Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (71 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) + (24 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 118 Ratings = 4.347
  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 4.65 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Normanhurst Nursing Home is based on 8 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 = 3.65
    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 31 registered maximum number of service users is 6.2, which has been reached with 8 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.
