Review from Debbie C (Daughter of Resident) published on 4 February 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My dad has only been on Memory Lane since the end of December 2021. However, during this short period of time, the care he has received has been outstanding. The home has a very friendly atmosphere and there is always someone available to speak to me when I visit. The decision to move dad to a nursing
home was emotionally difficult but I know it was the right decision and that he is being extremely well looked after.
I did have a few issues with getting dad into care at first but have to say the Manager, has been exceptional.
It's not easy having a parent in care and relying on other people to look after them but I know dad is in the best possible place and will receive the best care possible.
Thank you
Reply from Debbie Osborne, General Manager at Barchester Cherry Trees Care Home

Thank you for your kind words, Debbie. It is lovely to hear that the staff are caring for your dad in the best possible way and it is our pleasure and honour to care for him.

From the very first call I had with Barchester Cherry Trees Care Home I knew my mother was in safe hands.
Following a terrible leg infection and a bad previous experience from another care home. All staff members have been without doubt to ensure that all possible care has been taken to make my mothers
recovery as comfortable as possible. The quality of care is exceptional and everyone always finds the time to chat and nothing is too much trouble. A real home from home.

Thank you, looking after your mum is a privilege and we will always ensure she is looked after with dignity and respect as she deserves. Debbie

The care provided to my mother has been wonderful especially during Lockdown. My criticism would be the lack of communication. During lockdown, I could never find an appropriate time to call and ask after my mother. A quick 5-minute update call with details of any toiletry needs would have been welcome.
The menus are increasingly unimaginative.

First let me say, what a lovely home Cherry Tree is. Lovely, light rooms and pretty gardens. These past 15 months, as you know, we couldn't see our loved ones but when able Barchester made these pods for short visits and of course recently we are now able to have bedroom visits which is marvellous.
My thanks go to all carers, who although in change of the virus, themselves still came to look after our loved ones, making sure they were safe and cared for, even though they had families of their own. Of course, the kitchen, facilities and admin also played their parts. As things get better, let's all remember what we owe the staff at Cherry Trees a big thank you, also to Barchester for their weekly visits.

Sadly my mother passed away recently however she spent her last ten months being cared for at Cherry Trees in Alcester. Despite the difficult times due to covid restrictions, the team worked tirelessly to ensure the residents were safe, happy and entertained. My mother always appeared well cared for
and content and I will be forever grateful to all the staff for everything they did for her.
Reply from Debi Osborne, Senior General Manager at Barchester Cherry Trees Care Home

Thank you for your kind review, it was a pleasure caring for your mother, She settled into Cherry Trees so easily and throughout she maintained her independence. She never gave up and she would always try to do as much as she can. She is sadly missed and Cherry Trees have lost a wonderful resident. All the best.

Review from Rob T (Son of Resident) published on 7 May 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has been resident for almost a year now. Despite the complications and restrictions that Covid-19 has created I can say that I'm most impressed with the care that she has received from all the staff. It cannot be easy especially because of the physical disabilities that my mother now has since
her major stroke. When I have had to interact with any of the staff (Managers/Nurses/Carers/Office Staff) they have always been polite, well informed and helpful. This contact (phone/email/visit) hasn't been very often, because of Covid, but it has been regular - at least once a month.
I've not yet been inside the building - because all the visits I've had so far have been 'in a pod' or 'at the door of my mother's room'. I'm looking forward to lockdown easing and proper visiting starting.
A big "thank you" to all the staff.

My personal view of the Cherry Trees Care Home is limited as I have not been able to visit my father inside his bedroom for the past eight months. However, in the previous years 2013-2019 when my mother was a resident also, I dealt with problems when they manifested. They were usually dealt with but
not all the time. However, now the use of agency staff has stopped due to Covid, things have greatly improved. Residents need to know and trust their carers!
Reply from Debbie Osborne, General Manager at Barchester Cherry Trees Care Home

Thank you for your review. I took over the management of the home in March 2020 and have made many changes including no agency usage. The designated visiting pods have been a great success and although indoor visits have not been going ahead we have been lucky to able to use these and our gardens in good weather. It is great you have seen the improvements in the home and I am always available to speak to if you have any issues or concerns.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I'm not sure the words I write here will do Cherry Trees justice - they are faultless in everything they do, and the level of the care both my Grandparents received has brought comfort to us at a time when we haven't been able to visit. Sadly my Grandfather passed at the height of Covid-19, and at a
time when staff were already extremely busy, however, we couldn't have asked for more from the care he received during his final days - the carers treated him as though he were their own Father/Grandfather/Great Grandfather. Cherry Trees gave both my Mum and Aunt comfort in knowing my Grandfather was well cared for during a time that was difficult to comprehend. I only have good things to say about Cherry Trees, but it wouldn't be what it is without the wonderful staff who are truly dedicated to the level of care they provide, whilst making the home an enjoyable and stress-free for my Gran who has dementia. Thank you, Cherry Trees, for all your work.
Reply from Debbie Osborne, General Manager at Barchester Cherry Trees Care Home

Thank you so much for the kind words that you have written. Both your grandparents have been a joy to look after and we can only thank you and your family for the support you give us and continue to do so.

I just wanted to to say a big thank you to all of the staff at Cherry Trees for looking after my dad so well in these very challenging times, knowing he is safe and well cared for means so much to us as a family. Recently we have been through a difficult time and I would like to say a particular thank
you to the manager, administrator and the receptionist for being so supportive and understanding in what was very unsettling times for us all. It was so reassuring to know everyone at Cherry Trees (all staff) wanted to help and most of all wanted the best outcome for my dad, it clearly showed how much the 'Cherry Trees Family' are so strong and work together so well and do go the extra mile when needed to look after their residents as well as their families. I can not thank them enough for their continued support and care, nothing is ever too much trouble for them. Thank you to everyone at Cherry Trees for your amazing hard work, you are all so very much appreciated and valued.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the staff at Cherry Trees.
My mum went in about six weeks ago, she had dementia and underlying health issues. Unfortunately, she passed away last night, and the manager called me to allow me to go and see her at peace in her bed. I was able to sit
with her for a while and say my farewell. The staff have been amazing throughout my mum's stay and kept me up to date on how she was doing. Allowing me in last night to say goodbye is something I shall never forget, and I am truly grateful to all the staff that helped my mum. I would highly recommend this wonderful home for anyone. A truly remarkable place with so much love.

As one of my close family friends are here, the service and care given is great. They take care and look after you as visitors and the residential living there is like being at home. Polite, well-mannered staff and have no complaints. This is one of the best care places I have visited with 100 percent
service and help given. I recommend any one to use the service at this place and send their family here. No complaints - really great. 100 percent the right place if you're looking for a family member to be happy. Very clean, tidy and a fair price with great facilities.

My husband and I have found Cherry Trees to be the most welcoming and caring care home we have experienced. The staff are so helpful and friendly and extremely dedicated to their roles. The manager has been so very helpful in being available for meetings or telephone calls to keep us up to date with
details about the resident concerned - a very close friend of ours - and she provides strong leadership. The rooms and facilities are tremendous - it is like walking into a 5-star hotel, in particular, the reception and cafeteria areas. The interior design has been given a lot of thought, from layout to colour schemes, to furnishings, and ornaments. Everywhere is so clean and the food is amazing, served in a wonderful restaurant. The outdoor green space is vast, colourful and peaceful and the courtyard garden is a lovely place to relax. The home is set in lovely countryside but close to shops if needed, and there is a large car park. We would definitely recommend Cherry Trees.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.550)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.550) out of 10 for Barchester Cherry Trees Care Home 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 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 12 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 4.809 for Barchester Cherry Trees Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (115 Excellents x 5) + (25 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 141 Ratings = 4.809
  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 4.741 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Barchester Cherry Trees Care Home is based on 12 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 81 registered maximum number of service users is 16.2. 12 Positive Reviews ÷ 16.2 = 0.741
  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.
