We visit monthly and always find the staff very helpful and charming. Despite covid, we were still allowed our visits, which gave comfort to our cousin. The entertainment staff are amazing and so friendly to us all.

Since my Dad moved into Blossomfield Grange a few months ago, every single member of staff has been friendly and welcoming. The admission process was made so easy for him and he has now settled in well. The food generally is very good with alternatives available. He has needed extra care the last few
weeks and it is incredibly reassuring for the family to know that Dad is in a safe place.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have two relatives currently residing at Blossomfield Grange Care Home, both of whom moved in when the home was managed by a different company. Since Care UK took over there have been clear signs of improvement and both relatives are very content with their accommodation and the standard of care.
The carers are kind and helpful but really come into their own when someone is ill. There is an excellent range of activities on offer and the staff work tirelessly to try to engage all the residents. At present, there is a senior manager temporarily in post, following the resignation of the previous incumbent. The newcomer is superb and will undoubtedly help to raise standards across the board. No care home is ever going to please every occupant in every aspect of their life all of the time because we are all individuals with differing opinions and standards but we feel that our relatives are safe, well-cared-for, well-fed, warm and surrounded by help when needed thanks to all who work there.

Overall, my father is very content, his care is excellent and activities enjoyed. The only criticism is that sometimes he feels he is not being listened to.
Reply from Samantha Debenham, Personal Assistant at Blossomfield Grange

Thank you for your feedback – we’re very happy to hear your father is happy with the care and activities at Blossomfield Grange. However, we’re very sorry to hear your father sometimes does not feel listened to, as it’s incredibly important to us that all our residents feel listened to and their feelings and wishes are always taken into account – we’ll make sure that we address this with the teams here so this doesn’t happen again. Thank you again for taking the time to write a review, and please let us know at any time if you have any further questions, comments or suggestions and we’ll be happy to help.

Review from Ian W (Son of Resident) published on 25 October 2022 Submitted via Website • Report

I am writing this review following the death of my mother at Blossomfield Grange in Solihull. She had been living there for almost 11 years until she sadly died there aged 101.
Over the past few weeks, as my mum has gradually slipped away, I have been overwhelmed by the care, and indeed the love,
that not just my mum but also my brother and myself have been shown by the colleagues in each and every one of the Blossomfield team. In my opinion, it has been the model example of how every single member of staff in a care home should see themselves as first and foremost caring for the residents, whatever their specific role title. At Blossomfield there is no doubt that they are indeed all carers for the family of residents who are living their later years in a residential environment. I have shared with so many friends and family (at times almost to their disbelief) just how incredible the last few days were of my mother's life thanks to the whole team at Blossomfield Grange.

I have lived at Blossomfield Grange since 6 September 2019. I love the garden and the grounds and like to walk around them. I also use the exercise bike daily to help keep me fit. I have made new friends with the residents and staff. The food is nice and varied and I can give my feedback at the monthly
food forum. The minibus trips are good but I would like to see more residents using them.

We have seen first-hand how some patients react and how staff have dealt with that so well.

My wife took residency on 28th April 2022. She was a little apprehensive at first but within a few days was happy. I see her every day and do see the sometimes difficult work the carers do. They seem to have infinite patience. I have experienced situations when I have to leave after a visit and my
wife wants to go with me, the carers have the knack of diffusing the situation. I cannot praise the staff highly enough.

My sister-in-law had spent nearly 3 months in hospital and we needed to find a quality care home near to us that could care for her needs in comfortable surroundings. We found Blossomfield Grange was the ideal choice and from the very beginning they assessed the needs required and efficiently and with
care carried out the necessary administration and care needed with genuine compassion. All staff are courteous and friendly.

I came to view Blossomfield Grange with a view to supporting my brother in the future who has dementia. When I saw the Home, met with the staff, looked at all the activities available and saw the rooms it proved to be the most appropriate place for my sister-in-law. We had no hesitation in choosing
this Home for their dedication to the needs of all the residents, for the love and concern for their emotional and physical well-being and for their support of all the family. I can see the immense difference the last few weeks have been to the overall health of my sister-in-law and I would like to thank every member of staff whoever they may be and whatever role they undertake - for their commitment, their care and their dedication to a vulnerable group of people. I visited last week and sat in the Bistro area. Each table was occupied by residents and on each table, a carer was there chatting and encouraging the residents to engage. It was amazing. Thank you all.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Unfortunately, our mother had a fall at her home, where she had been reasonably independent, last November, which has had a major effect on her mental health and mobility. Accordingly, we had to very quickly find a care home to look after her and are very happy to have found Blossomfield Grange. Our
mother has only been a resident for a month during, which time, visiting was, until recently, quite restricted. We're also due to review with staff how they think our mother has settled and coped with the very significant change in her life. Currently, we're unable to comment on all aspects of life at Blossomfield Grange. However, in the short time that our mother has been a resident, all the staff have been very welcoming, very patient with our mother and very helpful to the family. The care/support has been first class as all staff have helped our mother to settle in reasonably well and, at the same time, they have treated her with great dignity, especially as so much has changed in her life.

My father is 97 years old and until recently was living a well independently, loving life. He now needs a Residential home to care for his needs and finding the right place was of paramount importance to give him the quality of life he deserves.
Blossomfield Grange has proved to be a gem with excellent,
caring staff who have all made him and the family feel so welcome. I cannot praise highly enough.
My father is settled and enjoying life again.
Thank you to every one of you at Blossomfield Grange.

In October I moved my mum into Sunrise following the death of my dad and the need to re-locate my mum closer to me. This was my first experience of needing to look into full-time care and my experience from my initial enquiry, through to viewing, the move in and the on-going care and wider provision
has been genuinely excellent All the staff are professional and demonstrate such dedication and care, making mums experience the best it can be. I'm regularly contacted with updates regarding any medical or other care related issues. Over the weeks mum has started to settle in well, the home has such a welcoming, positive and uplifting culture with excellent, well-maintained facilities. In addition, the management team are always willing to try and accommodate any personal family requests. Whilst a tough decision for me to move mum into a home, I leave after every visit knowing she is in a safe, well cared for environment.

At the end of November, I moved my aunt into the home following a deterioration in her health.
She was no longer capable of looking after herself and had become forgetful. It is early days yet and she has not yet completely settled into her new surroundings. She likes her spacious room. However, I
know that she is being well cared for that she is eating regularly and taking her medication. She likes the staff who are very polite are very patient with her and are encouraging her to join in the home’s programme of activities. She has only had one complaint to make so far and that relates to the food – she says there is too much of it!

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.803)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.803) out of 10 for Blossomfield Grange 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 32 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 32 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 4.803 for Blossomfield Grange is calculated as follows: ( (297 Excellents x 5) + (73 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 370 Ratings = 4.803
  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 Blossomfield Grange is based on 32 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 109 registered maximum number of service users is 21.8, which has been reached with 32 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.

Job Title: Home Manager Joined: 2024

I have thirteen years of experience in the care industry, and I love being a part of the Care UK team as I share the organisation’s values and the passion to deliver outstanding, person-centred care to all residents.


Working as a General Manager at Blossomfield Grange, I always ensure that the teams in different areas of the homework collaboratively and efficiently together, and that would involve seamless communication between us and residents or family members. My favourite part of the day is my daily walk rounds, where I get the chance to see residents, and family members, and observe colleagues as they carry out their day-to-day activities. It’s a great opportunity to check in with my colleagues and ask how they are.


Outside of work, I enjoy watching football, and cricket, and I go to my local gym to keep myself fit.
