My mother-in-law has been in Brookdale Care Home since February. My wife and I feel lucky to have found such a good place close to our home, where my wife can pop round any time of day. The very friendly and helpful staff do a brilliant job. The manager is again approachable. So far no problems. Long
may it continue.

The room is always clean and tidy and the food when I've been there is good it's what she wants and eats. Staff here are great. They're kind, understanding and there for everyone.
If you ask about something they will take time and explain it.

The members of staff are excellent and go above and beyond the call of duty. They are so dedicated and are willing to go the extra mile.


There is also a wide range of activities to keep us all entertained and stimulated. All in all, I thoroughly recommend this care home to anyone.

My mum has been here for only 2 weeks. The care and staff have made my mum feel at home and are very kind, lovely girls. The deputy manager is so very nice and honest. Any problems are sorted and everyone works as a team here.


The nursing staff are really good. My mum has bowel cancer and they are

so good at controlling mum's pain. Brookdale View Care Home is really good with no concerns at all.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Brookdale View is a very impressive place, lovely décor and furnishing, residents can make their rooms specific to their own tastes, bringing mirrors, bedspreads and pictures, all to give it a homely feel. The dining room is lovely and the food is excellent, I'm really pleased with the care my friend
receives, he's looked after and that gives me peace of mind. The staff are really hard working, the staff are really hard working and pleasant. I would recommend this care home to anybody.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.477)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.477) out of 10 for Brookdale View Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 10 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 4.477 for Brookdale View Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (86 Excellents x 5) + (26 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) + (6 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 130 Ratings = 4.477
  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 Brookdale View Care Home is based on 10 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 48 registered maximum number of service users is 9.6, which has been reached with 10 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.
