Staff are bright, cheerful and encouraging. Frequent activities which my mum (a dementia resident) is encouraged to take part in. She is always greeted affectionately by name and visibly flourishes under the attention.

Mum died in February age 97, she had been a resident here for 5 and a half years and really enjoyed it. Her family enjoyed visiting her as the care home was so welcoming. I continue to visit when I can. The change of management appears to be very good - the staff seem to be more content and relaxed.
Excellent activities staff.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My main criteria for picking Beaufort Grange was to ensure that my father was safe and happy in his "new home". I have not been disappointed and I have felt that over the last two months there has been even further improvements in my father's welfare and care at Beaufort Grange.
The management and
staff have high standards and in my opinion, these have risen over the last two months. This has put my mind at ease as he is enjoying his new surroundings.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The room was spacious, well fitted out and quiet. The bathroom needed a small cabinet, free-standing, to hold my toiletries as I am unable to reach a wall cabinet. I also needed a bathroom stool. Both were provided immediately as was a footstool.
The staff made sure that I was comfortable before I
settled in. The staff were extremely kind and helpful, I cannot fault them. Food - plenty of it and a good choice.

Dad has settled well into Beaufort Grange. He has a lovely ground floor room. He is happy and content. Staff are friendly and helpful. Dad joins in some of the activities, the quizzes and songs of praise afternoons. I have been made to feel welcome and can visit Dad at any time. Dad has a very limited
diet so I cannot comment on the food but the menus look good.

The service in Beaufort Grange is extremely good. Staff are always helpful and willing to provide support. The bedrooms are spacious with adjoining bathrooms. Meals are adequate (most residents would have fairly small appetites). Rooms are well furnished and refreshments are easily available. TV in
all individual rooms. The whole atmosphere is pleasant and staff are invariably willing to help. Individual needs are met without question.

My husband has been in Beaufort Grange for four years.
My main concerns when he arrived was all about his care. I have found his care on the dementia unit to be excellent.
The staff are kind and have a great understanding of dementia.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.860)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.860) out of 10 for Barchester Beaufort Grange is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 39 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 38 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 4.860 for Barchester Beaufort Grange is calculated as follows: ( (409 Excellents x 5) + (44 Goods x 4) + (9 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 463 Ratings = 4.86
  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 Barchester Beaufort Grange is based on 38 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 74 registered maximum number of service users is 14.8, which has been reached with 38 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.
