The Review Score of 8.8 (maximum of 10) for Brookview Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 4 Reviews over all time. This Average Rating is also the rating value for Brookview Nursing Home in Google's Search Results - more info
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.1 out of 5 from 4 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 4.667 for Brookview Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (33 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 48 Ratings = 4.667
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 4.083 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Brookview Nursing Home is based on 4 positive Reviews in the last 12 months and is calculated as follows:
3 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 3.75
Target of 12 positive Reviews (60 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 4 Reviews ÷ 12 Target = 0.333
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

When my aunt first entered Brookview, the decor was a little shabby but now it's very bright with different colours and things to look at. I find the staff very friendly, caring and I'm so pleased my aunt is cared for so very well.

My father has been resident at Brookview since July 2017. In that time his general health and wellbeing have improved considerably. The care, attention and support given by Brookview have all made this possible.
The staff are very friendly and attentive. There is a very high standard of vigilance re health and wellbeing. The environment is clean and well decorated. The laundry service is excellent.

Brookview is a friendly and approachable care home who's staff show genuine concern for the needs of my mum, she has been living there since December 2017.
I have peace of mind knowing she is safe and her health conditions are monitored and managed well.
Communication between the home and myself is easy and any queries or requests have been met.
Recently newly decorated, Brookview feels homely and a lot of effort has been put into furnishings and comfort, activities are arranged as well as regular entertainment afternoons.
