Review from Charlotte M (Daughter of Resident) published on 21 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

On viewing the home last week I was fully supported to get my Mum to a safe space after hospital admission that couldn't end by her going home as it was unsafe to do so. I looked around on a surprise visit & was very impressed by what I found & saw. The staff were friendly kind & welcoming. On moving my Mum in this week she has settled well. The staff are absolutely fantastic & my Mum is happy safe settled & content. The food is great. The care & compassion is 100% person centred with Mum being involved at all times. She does not feel scared to use the apparatus with the staffs guidance. Her bedroom is to an amazing standard. The whole home is also set to an excellent standard. Clean. Tidy. Homely. Furnished to a high standard. All in all the best choice I made for my loved one.

Overall Experience
I cannot express my gratitude enough, dad (Freddo) came to Brookfields from the Derby Royal for palliative care.
Unfortunately he was only there for 3 weeks, but in those weeks the staff could not do enough for him, and us.
Every staff member who attended to dad also attended to Liz who was able to stay with him throughout his weeks in their care.
From the moment you rang the bell to when you left you are treated with warmth, care and compassion.
Thank you

Mandy

Overall Experience

My experience so far has been outstanding. Everyone is pleased to help you. You can get through to speak to the team and nothing is too much trouble. Dad has really improved since discharge from hospital where he was not allowed out of bed. Brookfield have made a big effort to get him to interact with others & join in with daily activities. Dad likes the food, has a lovely room and seems to have settled in quickly. I am relieved that he is being so well cared for.

Review from Daren f (Son of Resident) published on 20 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

The wonderful staff looked after my mum in the final months of her life. They went out of their way to make her time there comfortable and happy. The staff couldn't do enough for her, and by extension, us,as a family during the final days. The nurses, carers, cleaners and office staff are all very friendly and welcoming, looking after our needs as much as my mums. Everyone did all in their power to make my mum feel happy, and content. When the time came for her to to leave us, she was treated with so much dignity and respect, which I'm afraid is lacking in other care homes.

Overall Experience

Brookfields Nursing Home have been amazing. Right from when I first came to look round, the staff couldn't have been more welcoming and supportive. My friend moved in to be looked after whilst having chemotherapy and it was most definitely the right decision. They really made a tough time more bearable. I would definitely recommend them.

Review from A W (Daughter of Resident) published on 15 December 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My mum was a resident at Brookfields for the final weeks of her life. Every member of staff, from managers, cleaners, catering team, auxiliaries and nurses, supported us through an extremely sad and difficult time. They were consistently professional, efficient, caring, thoughtful, and above all, kind. They treated my mum with dignity and gently but honestly guided us through.

The rooms were warm and comfortable, feeling more like a family home. The food was exceptional, with the catering team and auxiliary nurses going above and beyond to support mum and the family, even making sure to have all of mum's favourites. Nothing was ever too much.

We can't thank Brookfields enough for everything they did in those weeks. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone looking for support, particularly end of life care.

Review from Victoria D (Daughter of Resident) published on 17 June 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I really can't speak highly enough of everything that is Brookfields - Mum has been a resident for a couple of years now and never ever have I experienced anything other than utmost care and kindness from the staff, both towards the residents and also relatives. Their patience with Mum is enormous - she is often difficult and rude, but they remain respectful and gentle.

Every single staff member in every department shows the same good nature, whether it's kitchen, laundry, maintenance, back office or nursing and care. The kitchen is spotless and the food is freshly cooked, wholesome, delicious and healthy. The home itself is beautifully clean, light and airy. Nothing is ever too much trouble. I didn't think that this sort of place still existed when I found it, but it's the best possible place I could have chosen for Mum. I am eternally grateful to everyone at Brookfields and hope they realise just how much it means to me to have Mum living under their care. Thank you X

Review from J M (Daughter of Resident) published on 2 June 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My 98 year old father was in urgent need of care following a series of falls & increasing frailty. Brookfields welcomed us from the first visit on the Friday & speedily arranged for him to move in on the Tuesday! It's such a friendly, welcoming home that feels like your own home not a care or nursing home. The staff are all helpful, caring & considerate. The premises are spotlessly clean, the laundry services are excellent and the attention to detail is amazing. My father settled in easily & is now so much happier and relaxed. He still has his own choices & the support being provided is exceptional. I've just had to order him some new trousers as he is putting weight on with the excellent food provided! I would highly recommend Brookfields to anyone looking for a caring, family run home for their relative or friend.

Mum was only at the nursing home for a few weeks but during that time she received excellent care. The staff were so thoughtful and caring and all her needs were met.

The staff ensured that it was a happy place for the residents to live and everything was spotlessly clean.

My 93 year old father was admitted from hospital.
He was widowed 2 months previously after a marriage of 70 years.
The staff at Brookfields welcomed him, my sister and I. They were caring and understood of his needs.

He always appears well cared for and tells us he likes it here as people care.

Review from E M (Daughter of Resident) published on 24 February 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

From our first approach to visit Brookfields to arrange a rapid discharge from hospital, the staff were welcoming and reassuring. We were immediately able to relax for the first time in weeks and feel Mum would be well cared for in an environment that felt homely rather than institutional. The food was amazing, all home cooked. Mum put on weight and had her difficult allergy managed immediately so she could and wanted to eat. All the staff were caring, and friendly and did what they could to keep Mum comfortable with appropriate equipment. The place was spotless and the laundry also immaculate. Medical staff were called when appropriate and weekly visits from the attached advanced nurse practitioner was really useful too. There were plenty of activities for those who wanted with a weekly paper quiz sheet for those unable to leave their own room. All the little touches made the difference. You couldn't do better than Brookfields for care be it residential or end of life nursing care.

My aunt was diagnosed with terminal cancer and moved to Brookfields Private Nursing Home Ltd for end-of-life care in November. We chose the home as my father was in there for end-of-life care in February 2018 and the care had been excellent.

The home is beautiful. The staff are superb, they make you feel very welcome and are so kind and caring to the residents. I would not hesitate to recommend this home to anyone requiring nursing care.

Lisa Job Title:Registered NurseJoined: 2018

I have always wanted to be a nurse for as long as I can remember. I trained in Derby in 1988 at the age of 17 which was the soonest I could train at both the DRI and City Hospital. I qualified in 1991 and went on to work in a local nursing home. Over the 29 years I have worked as a nurse or manager in local homes, I found the best one (Brookfields) in August 2018.

I am a student nurse studying at Derby University and part-time Auxiliary Nurse at Brookfields. I worked at Brookfields before starting my nursing degree so I already knew staff and residents, and have been working at Brookfields alongside my studies.
