The Review Score of 8.5 (maximum of 10) for Beach Lawns Residential and Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 17 Reviews over all time. This Average Rating is also the rating value for Beach Lawns Residential and Nursing Home in Google's Search Results - more info
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.7 out of 5 from 3 positive Reviews in the last 12 months.
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating of all Reviews over all time. For each review the Care Home / service is rated Excellent, Good, Satisfactory, Poor or Very Poor on a number of areas eg Staff, Management etc. The Care Home receives points for each rating as follows: Excellent = 5. Good = 4. Satisfactory = 3. Poor = 2. Very Poor = 1. These points are added up and then divided by the total number of completed ratings to generate the average rating.
The Average Rating of 4.783 for Beach Lawns Residential and Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (159 Excellents x 5) + (44 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 203 Ratings = 4.783
b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 12 months. If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with 'Extremely Likely' or 'Likely' in answer to the question 'How likely are you to recommend this Care Home to friends and family if they needed similar care or treatment?'
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
4 points are available for the first 5 Positive Reviews, 3 points for the first Positive Review and then 0.25 Points for each of the next 4 Positive Reviews.
1 point is available for reaching a target number of Positive Reviews based on 20% of the number of registered maximum number of service users. If the target is partially reached then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home with 50 registered maximum number of service users has a target of 10 Positive Reviews, if it has 10 or more Positive Reviews it will receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews will receive 0.7 points.
If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. The calculation is the same as above, except the points are divided by 2.
The 3.683 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Beach Lawns Residential and Nursing Home is based on 3 positive Reviews in the last 12 months and is calculated as follows:
3 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 3.5
Target of 16.4 positive Reviews (82 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 3 Reviews ÷ 16.4 Target = 0.183
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

We needed to place 97-year-old mother in care urgently when being discharged at short notice from hospital after surgery for a fall at her home.
Mother had always been very resistant to giving up her own home.
The hospital failed badly on discharge, but Beach Lawns picked up the ball and performed superbly with a very wary and frightened new arrival and within 24 hours she has not looked back and calls it her home.

The staff and management are all efficient and caring, which is very important when considering that it is going to be your mums home from now on. The room is good, rather small but as my mum is bedridden there is no extra room needed.
A special chair to make my mums life a bit more comfortable was arranged and I am extremely satisfied with it and mum seemed rested in it. The carers are very kind and mum talks of them fondly.
I would like to see my mum dressed in her nightie for the night and fully dressed in the day.

A very well located home on the sea front, on level ground, with a small rear garden and a gate leading into a lovely park.
The home is well run with a 'hands on' manager who leads an excellent staff.
A recent change of chef has led to a fall in quality of food, this problem is being addressed. A change in activities leader is a similar problem, which I'm sure will improve.

All the staff are friendly and helpful. The manageress monthly meeting for residents and relatives is an excellent idea it gives her a chance to tell people what is happening and listen to their relatives views. Any problems ar dealt with quickly. Lots of activities to choose including accompanied walks out. The en-suite bedroom always clean. Care and nursing staff excellent if there is a delay in attending an explanation is given.

Very sadly, my beloved father passed away at Beach Lawns in January 2017, but I know I can speak for my whole (large) family. The time he spent at the nursing home, the staff and management were fantastic, caring, supportive and treated us with all the utmost dignity day and night. Supplied us with tea and food throughout and nothing was too much trouble and cannot thank them enough.

More than pleased with the care and information provided by all members of staff throughout, always helpful and polite and give you good confidence. That allows you to carry on trouble free knowing your relative is being really well looked after.

Review submitted from a Postal Card by L H (Daughter of Resident) on Friday 10 March 2017. Relates to January 2017.
My mother became a resident of memory lane in June 2016. Memory Lane is a small dementia unit within Beach Lawns. As you enter memory lane there is a sign "home is where the heart is". This is very true of this unit, the staff are caring and kind to all residents, plus residents families are welcomed into this family and given support from day one. Christmas 2016 was a fine example, prior to Xmas day residents various enjoyable days, carol singing, visit to pantomime, Xmas fair. On Xmas day families were welcome to stay for lunch, residents had their own stockings from the unit just because it's a dementia unit, Xmas was lovely and all residents enjoy raising a glass. If you are looking for a home that brings care and laughter Beach Lawns is that home.

Review submitted from a Postal Card by S T (Daughter of Resident) on Monday 6 March 2017. Relates to January 2017.
We didn't want dad to go into a home, although we realised this was the only option and looked at several before deciding on Beach Lawns. From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel welcome and they did everything to make dad comfortable. The staff were fantastic, caring for both dad and his family. Dad sadly passed away at the home and the staff couldn't have done more for us all. Dad's last days were comfortable and calm.

Review submitted from a Website Submission by Peter H (Son of Resident) on Wednesday 1 March 2017. Relates to January 2017.
Having to find a nursing home two days before Christmas Day for my elderly father was very difficult for us and after looking at four other homes in Weston we chose Beach Lawns.
This decision proved to be an excellent choice, the professionalism, care, patience and friendly attitude of all the staff at Beach Lawns quickly settled my father into his room.
Unfortunately, my father's stay at Beach Lawns was relatively short but the care and dignity showed to him and our family was second to none.
I cannot thank the home enough for assisting us through what was a very difficult time for us all.
I have had to put a "good" rating for Activities, as although there were plenty arranged, my father could not join in (although the member of staff with the "ukelele" certainly got us laughing!)
Thank you again, Beach Lawns.

Choosing a nursing home for my husband was very hard. Unfortunately, he was only there for a few weeks, but the care he received from all the staff was brilliant, also the kindness shown to our family. They could not have done more and we are very grateful we found Beach Lawns and happy we made the right decision at a very difficult time.

Review submitted from a Postal Card by H M (Daughter of Resident) on Friday 10 February 2017. Relates to January 2017.
From my personal experience, there is good clean work, the staff providing love and care to the residents. No criticism of the staff are the residence rightly take first priority, but at times it can be difficult to find someone if I need to discuss mum. They are very good when I phone mum, they assist her and take the phone to her.
Home will set out, various areas residents can go. Very welcoming on visits and variety of activities.
Very grateful to all the staff who are involved in mums care.

My father stayed at Beach Lawns for about 4 years. They made him feel at home. It feels like a home. It was his home. It is clean and bright and situated on the seafront. Not only is it a home, the staff really do care for the residents. My father's care throughout his stay was superb. The staff were simply amazing. I cannot speak highly enough of Beach Lawns and its staff. I am so grateful to them for the care they provide for my father. Beach lawns is superb.
