There is such a fantastic variety of activities available, and what really stands out is the effort the staff make to understand and meet the individual needs and interests of each resident. It is lovely to see that everyone is treated as an individual and encouraged to get involved in ways that suit them even family.
We have also been able to make Mum's room feel like home by adding our own personal touches, including photographs and ornaments, which has made such a difference and helped her settle in.
Communication with me as a family member has been excellent. The staff keep me regularly updated and always make me feel comfortable asking questions or discussing anything regarding Mum's care.
Overall, we are extremely happy with Brocklehurst. Thank you for all you do.
Thank you for your kind words. We are delighted that you and your mum have had a positive experience at Brocklehurst. I will make sure that the staff are made aware of your comments and the feedback is given to them.

Extremely happy with the care and attention to detail. Cleanliness, timing, care and support are excellent. A special credit and mention to one of the staff who goes over and above, it is notable when he is not here. He pays extra attention to every detail, every request. Food and care are never too much and are accommodated. He is always very pleasant and should be nominated for employee of the month/year. Thank you for the excellent care you provide.
We're truly grateful to hear that you're extremely happy with the care and attention we provide. Cleanliness, timing, support, and overall well-being are things we take very seriously, and it's wonderful to know that these efforts are appreciated. Thank you for your trust and for sharing such encouraging feedback.
One staff member in particular is an absolute asset to Brocklehurst Nursing Home. I have never seen him sit for a second and is always running around ensuring the residents' needs are met/cared for. This staff member takes pride in his job and does a great job. He truly is a carer from the heart...
One staff member in particular is an absolute asset to Brocklehurst Nursing Home. I have never seen him sit for a second and is always running around ensuring the residents' needs are met/cared for. This staff member takes pride in his job and does a great job. He truly is a carer from the heart and I feel he should be rewarded for all his efforts (employee of the month/year). When this staff member is in it is noticed straight away, one example is how he brings Mum's food on a tray not missing a thing. It may seem like a small thing but I never have to look for him and ask where the dessert is etc. When we ask him for something nothing is too much for him.
Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful review. We're absolutely delighted to hear such positive feedback, and we will be sure to pass your wonderful comments on to the staff member mentioned. Recognition like this truly means a lot and helps highlight the dedication and compassion shown by our team.
Coming from some real bad experience at other care homes Brocklehurst was such a breath of fresh air. Relieved and overjoyed to luckily find a heaven such as this place. We are relieved and so happy.

The food is excellent and he really enjoys his full English breakfast and other meals provided.
The home is well-organised, great manager and is always spotlessly clean.
The layout of the building is great and unlike other homes I've been to.
Each area has its own small lounge which makes it feel less overwhelming.
My brother feels settled and when we visit, it feels like a family.
The events put on at Christmas, Easter, Halloween parties etc. are excellent. They make such an effort and my brother enjoys them.
The only downside is the lack of activities, they have struggled to find an activities organiser and this is a real shame as they definitely need more daily activities for the residents.
Thank you so much for your kind words and thoughtful review! We're thrilled to hear that your brother is happy here and that you've had such a positive experience. It means a lot to us that you've noticed the care and kindness of our staff, they truly go above and beyond for the residents. We're...

Absolutely terrible. Honestly don't take your loved ones to this hell hole. Poorly staffed, horrible staff, obviously couldn't care less about anyone relying on their help. No one does any work and are extremely abusive. My mother can't breathe, end of life and they are horrible with her, holding back her palliative care medicine. Please don't make the same mistake I did.

My mum was admitted to Brocklehurst Nursing Home in July 2024 where she was admitted from the hospital I found the overall level of care extremely poor even though I complained to the manager on a few occasions. The staff were abrupt and generally uncaring. My mum had 2 falls during the first two weeks of her admission. Sadly she passed away there on 17/8/2024. I would not recommend this Nursing Home to anyone.

The care from all levels of staff was excellent - she was physically and mentally supported in all aspects and treated with compassion, dignity and respect and the caring ethos is very evident with a supportive level of humour and empathy. As relatives, we were welcomed and could visit flexibly as needed. I had regular updates, especially during palliative care.
The food was really excellent and varied and there was always choice and allowances and he was fully supported and needs catered for.
I visit my sister twice a week. The staff are always very friendly and her room is always tidy and clean.

Great staff, doing a wonderful job looking after my mum who has severe dementia. I was worried that the move from her previous home, which closed, would have a detrimental impact on her, but she settled in quickly, thanks to the staff.
