My mam has been here since 2023 and so far I have no worries about her care the staff are excellent with her. Could not be more pleased. Also the home is very clean and her room is always spotless. Though some of her clothes are not hers. And there are one or two things missing from her room. I would
like her brown bag replaced a photo of her with her sister. Also a navy blue dressing gown with pink hearts found. Thank you all for the hard work you are doing.

Prior to the new owners taking over, the home had become 'tired' and in need of updating, however since the new owners took over lots of changes have been made especially in the community and outside areas, these areas are now pleasant and welcoming for staff and residents to enjoy all the 'activities'
and also each others company. My mother has always been cared for with respect and all her needs taken care of by all members of the Beeches staff.

Mum has been resident at the Beeches since September 2023. In that time she has always received the care we hoped for - kind and considerate staff and very careful nursing. There has been a noticable improvement in management in recent months, with far more attention to details such as providing podiatry
and hairdressing. We are looking forward to Mum's 100th birthday in a few weeks, which we will celebrate along with the staff, who are arranging her 'party'!

Distinct lack of care and compassion from senior managers, lack of communication appears to be a lack of support to the carers community. Senior managers will not communicate with family. Too many agency staff resulting in continuity of care lacking.

The care received by my mother since moving in, in February 2020 has been excellent. I have felt informed and involved in all aspects of her care. The staff have gone above and beyond to make her comfortable and cared for. All the worry I felt has gone, and I am able to spend time (restrictions permitting)
with my mother, knowing her care needs are being taken care of. My mother's care needs have increased, but the staff have responded well to these changes.

We wish we could give an even higher rating.
During the time my husband has been in The Beeches, the care given to him and his family has been second to none. During the last few weeks of his life, the devotion and care towards meeting every aspect of his needs and comfort has been exemplary. The
staff have worked tirelessly throughout, and have been so professional and loving. We cannot thank them enough.

Current Review Score: 8.5 (8.517)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.5 (8.517) out of 10 for The Beeches Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.3 out of 5 from 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.3 out of 5 from 6 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 4.265 for The Beeches Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (54 Excellents x 5) + (17 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) + (10 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 83 Ratings = 4.265
  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 4.252 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Beeches Care Home is based on 6 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 = 3.6
    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 46 registered maximum number of service users is 9.2. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 9.2 = 0.652
  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.
