Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Dad has been in Beauchamp House for eight weeks. He had trouble settling in but all the staff worked very hard to make him welcome and comfortable. He is now joining in all the activities and (whilst he wouldn't admit it!) he is enjoying himself. The home is very welcoming, spotlessly clean and the
staff are friendly as well as professional. As his nearest relative, I am extremely pleased with everything. Thank you all at Beauchamp House!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My 101-year old mother needed urgent respite care following a fall in her home. Beauchamp Country House responded positively and pragmatically to the request, taking her in the same day and treating her wonderfully during her two week stay. I cannot thank the staff enough for their kindness, care and
professionalism. Were it not for the fact that we want her to be closer to her family, three hours away, then we would have happily left her there to enjoy the remaining days in comfort.
Reply from Phil Smith, Director of Residential Care at Beauchamp Country House Care

Thank you so much for your kind words, the team at Beauchamp Country House will be delighted. Knowing your mother was so well cared for must have been so reassuring to you. Wishing you both all the best.

Mum had been in Beauchamp Country House Care for almost two years before sadly passing away last week at 97. I cannot speak highly enough of all of the team there; the care provided for Mum from beginning to end has been magnificent, personal, supportive and attentive. Thank you so much to everyone
there. From our induction process two years ago, through the "guard of honour," as she left last week, more words cannot describe the performance.

My experience of this home began over 4 years ago when my husband had reached the age of 92 and could no longer be cared for fully at home. My impression was he appreciated his time here.
After he died and I had lived alone for two years this was the first home I considered to spend the rest of my
day and have no regrets.
It is comforting that so many of the staff still remember my husband.

Review from R B (Wife of Resident) published on 8 November 2023 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My husband was accepted at Beauchamp Country House Care on the 18th of January 2023 (with Covid) having been erratically ill for three weeks from hospital since the 28th of December 2023. My mother was a resident for 6 years and my father-in-law for two years. I was greatly relieved that Beauchamp House
would accept him because there is no equal to the care and compassion that he receives. The staff are so friendly and caring despite the fact they are overly stretched at times. I never worry about him and he greatly enjoys the cuisine. Thank you.

Review from Pat G (Resident) published on 1 November 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
It was a big step to leave my home of 56 years and my local friends and move to a care home 150 miles away, near my daughter but where I knew no one else. However, after a few weeks, I was happily settled in and after more than two years I remain sure it was the right decision for me. The staff here
are lovely, not just the carers, everyone. I have help and care in all the ways I need but they respect my wish to remain as independent as possible. The activities team go to great lengths to enable us to do anything that interests us, but you don't have to join in. For me, going into care was not the end but the beginning of a new phase of life, less active but still enjoyable and at Beauchamp House I feel I am among friends.

My experience of Beauchamp House is that they provide the most excellent care and comfortable home for their residents. Over the past year I have witnessed consistent kindness from the staff teams who have gone over and above to support my mum's challenging needs whilst respecting her wishes and preserving
her dignity. The nurses are all exceptional and are incredibly skilled at what they do and always put the needs of the resident first. I am so grateful to all the Beauchamp House staff who ensure my mum is able to maintain the best quality of life and who are so welcoming and accommodating to friends and family when they visit. Thank you Beauchamp House team - we are so grateful for all that you. do!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We chose Beauchamp Country House Care out of 13 care homes visited and assessed and we were glad we did. Our friend lived there for over 3 years and the care and kindness she received were excellent with many of the staff going above and beyond their duties, especially during the Covid period. The wonderful
care and kindness to her and us were invaluable and we cannot thank all the staff for the wonderful care they gave us through the years.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum needed respite care after 2 bad falls and after an initial visit to view I booked her into Beauchamp house for two weeks.
The room had its own phone, was very clean, warm and spacious and the grounds the house is set in are very attractive.
All the staff were excellent, from reception, the
care team, cleaners, laundry and kitchen.
Everyone you met was smiling and friendly and responsive to any query.
I felt reassured that they were very attentive to mum's well-being and needs and treated her with dignity and respect. Communication was excellent between all involved parties.
I would very happily recommend Beauchamp House ( especially as I have had a far less positive experience with another care home so have something to compare it with) as a safe and caring environment for a loved one.
A very positive experience.

Review from Graham W (Son of Resident) published on 24 August 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father needed three weeks of respite care as a transition from many weeks in hospital to coming home, and I needed the time to put the care and equipment at home in place. He was treated with respect, dignity and professionalism by all disciplines and valued the care and camaraderie he experienced
throughout his time at Beauchamp Country House Care. Management and administration were very helpful, informative, and caring in what was at times a very challenging period. The care was excellent, and the ‘icing on the cake’ was one particular carer’s insistence that no one ever goes home with any item of unwashed clothing on her watch. My wife (a theatre nurse) and I thought the standard of qualified nursing professionalism, care and rapport with my dad was outstanding. Thank you, everyone, at Beauchamp Country House Care!

The was the 13th place I viewed on behalf of my resident, and I knew immediately, it was the one she would be happy and well cared for. Nothing has happened to change my opinion. The staff are caring and have been doing a wonderful job, especially during the Covid situation. I believe my resident is
held in real affection by them. She is safe and well cared for here. There are many activities for her to take part in. The recent Jubilee party was excellent.

Since my mother has settled into Beauchamp Country House, I have nothing but praise for the home and its dedicated staff. From the moment you walk through the door, it is warm and welcoming, feeling very much like a home from home. The staff are caring and polite, nothing is too much trouble, all questions
we may have are always answered. My mother, if she is in her room, is checked on regularly and staff are quick to respond when she needs them, this gives me and my family great peace of mind.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.824)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.824) out of 10 for Beauchamp Country House Care 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 29 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 29 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 4.824 for Beauchamp Country House Care is calculated as follows: ( (286 Excellents x 5) + (48 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 340 Ratings = 4.824
  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 Beauchamp Country House Care is based on 29 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 54 registered maximum number of service users is 10.8, which has been reached with 29 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.
