  • The Beeches Residential Care Home, Birmingham
The team at The Beeches, many of whom have been with the home for years, are passionate about enriching the lives of their residents and empowering them to have an active role to play in how their home is run.

Providing residential, dementia and respite care, the team are proud to involve the residents and their loved ones in every aspect of life at the home. There are resident and family ambassadors, who get involved in everything from taking part in staff interviews to providing feedback on everything from the menus to the activities.

Food is a highlight of the day for many residents – and the chef is an award-winning baker with a passion for cakes! The food is very much shaped by the residents and there is a mixture of traditional dishes, like roasts with all the trimmings, to flavours from around the world if the residents would like to try them – including Caribbean, Greek and Indian.

There are so many activities to enjoy, from pampering in the salon, cheese and wine evenings and live entertainment, to gentle exercise and gardening in the home’s vegetable patch.

The team embrace the community into the home, with visiting students and community volunteers.

The Beeches also has a namaste room, a cinema room and a café, where residents can relax with friends and family, who are welcome at any time, over tea and homemade cake.

The home also has a Magic Table, an amazing piece of technology designed for people living with dementia, where residents can play interactive light games together.

The gardens are a beautiful spot to relax in, with raised planters and wheelchair friendly pathways. Some of the bedrooms, which are all ensuite, have patio access to the gardens.

My first time to have a meeting regarding my mom's care as both sisters had a meeting two weeks before and I was on holiday. We, all three, were in the meeting today, 19th May 2023, very happy with her care.

The Beeches Care Home have provided my father a wonderful week stay for his respite care.
From the first day the staff and managers have been thoroughly wonderful and have put all worries and nerves at ease for myself and my mother.
The first time we have ever left my father in anyone else’s care
and he has loved every second of it. The visits and phone calls were spent with my father saying how amazing the place is and how much he has enjoyed it.
Once again we would like to thank the staff and every member of the team of The Beeches for providing my father with the care he needs and giving him a lovely experience, he cannot wait to come back.

Dad was very nervous and cautious about going into a care home and losing his independence. He had misconceptions or what a care home would be like. After 4 weeks in The Beeches Residential Care Home he has changed his opinion completely, he is really happy and feels 'at home' there. The staff are friendly
and helpful to residents and visitors alike. It is really good to see him relaxed and looked after.

My brother came into The Beeches in November 2022. After several falls at home, he decided on full-time care. My wife and myself decided on The Beeches. How lucky are we! He has settled in really well and made some friends. He laughs and jokes with staff. The main view, he is happy. The staff look after
him really well. Warm, caring and helpful - what more could I ask for. Well done, The Beeches.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Mum and Dad moved into The Beeches Residential Care Home at the end of July 2022 and from day one the manager and staff were very welcoming and attentive to Mum and Dad's needs. There were numerous medical issues which resulted in either Mum or Dad or both being taken to hospital and the staff were
very efficient and kept me regularly informed about what was happening. Sadly, Dad passed aways at the home on the 6th of November 2022. The manager and staff were very caring and did everything they could to make Dad comfortable. Mum, who suffers from dementia, is still at The Beeches and is receiving similar excellent care. I would recommend The Beeches to anyone.

We started visiting our friend when she first moved into this area. From the start, we were impressed with the emphasis on safety (Covid precautions) and the friendliness and courtesy demonstrated. The rooms are very pleasant and private and the communal areas are clean and spacious. The staff are welcoming
and friendly and their interaction with residents is respectful and supportive. This is somewhere I would recommend. I have been a district nurse in the past and this home comes high on my list of praise-worthy homes.

I visited my friend's mother over a long period of years. I stayed with her for several hours each time I visited at least once a week. During Covid, obviously, restrictions applied and it became close family only. The lady had Covid at least twice. The care was above the expected, all the staff were
caring and kind.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am so pleased at the excellent progress my mom has achieved with the excellent care from all the staff, since coming to The Beeches. The staff are helpful, friendly and there is a really good feeling. My mom loves her cups of tea, even available in the night time. This has really helped her to settle,
with company, regular care and good food. All the various teams seem to play a cohesive part in making a whole, excellent package. The care button available 24/7 is a great source of comfort as she used to be frightened of the night times, since her husband died. My mother's confidence has grown along with her wellbeing improved dramatically - GP care and enjoyable hairdresser, manicures, summer fete and jubilee fun.

My mother has only been at The Beeches for a few months, but she has been treated with respect and kindness by all the staff. The facilities are very good and Mother's 90th Birthday celebrations were handled really well by all staff, with an excellent birthday cake as well.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Mom had been in The Beeches for more than 6 years and sadly passed away there in April. Due to commitments, this review has been delayed, but it's most important to me to write this now for anyone thinking about using this care home for their loved ones. Throughout the whole time there, the service
and kindness have been second to none, and all of the staff and management are thoroughly committed to their job and to the residents, the meals were all of a great standard, and even throughout Covid they all seemed to cope and stay smiling. When my mom passed away there, I was on holiday, and they were all amazing and took care of so many things for me which made it so much easier when I got home. My mom suffered from Dementia, and in my opinion, it takes special people to be able to handle this awful disease. There are many things that I would never have been able to handle in those later stages, and over the 6 years, I saw many great things that the staff did to help the residents.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.585)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.585) out of 10 for The Beeches Residential Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 24 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 4.585 for The Beeches Residential Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (231 Excellents x 5) + (45 Goods x 4) + (23 Satisfactorys x 3) + (10 Poors x 2) + (2 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 311 Ratings = 4.585
  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 The Beeches Residential Care Home is based on 24 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 56 registered maximum number of service users is 11.2, which has been reached with 24 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.

Francesca Lile

Job Title: Home Manager Joined: 2017

I began my career in care as an activities coordinator, discovering the joy of bringing happiness and purpose to residents.


Later, as a care assistant, I had the privilege of ensuring residents received tailored care informed by their unique histories and needs.


In my senior care roles, I embraced a person-centred approach, treating residents like extended family. I believe in truly knowing each individual, and helping them to live fulfilling lives.


Becoming a mother deepened my empathy for families, teaching me to address even small concerns with compassion and care. I always strive to view situations through the lens of how I would want my own loved ones treated.


Now, as Home Manager at The Beeches, I bring years of experience and a passion for creating a vibrant, welcoming environment where residents, their families, and staff feel valued and supported.


I am proud of Sanctuary Care’s ethos of enriching lives, and fostering a safe, nurturing home with engaging, personalised experiences that help every resident thrive.
