Beech House has been brilliant with my mum, who is in the later stages of Alzheimer's. Accepting Mum will only get worse is hard but we know she is safe and happy in her world in this home. And that's what it is about, right now. I do wish she had gone there earlier in her journey and she would have
enjoyed the social activities more. They are caring and compassionate, informative and friendly. A real 'family' care home.

This is not a very large care home but the atmosphere is cosy with cheerful staff with a positive mindset. Some care assistants could benefit from better training, regarding manual handling and communication, but this doesn't seem to be a major issue overall.

I moved Mum to Beech House in March this year from a care home in Northampton to be nearer to me. I can honestly say, I was so concerned about moving her but it's the best thing I could have done for her!
The staff are so lovely to the residents and to us visitors.
The standard of the home is amazing!
My mum's room is lovely, it's recently been decorated along with the rest of the home and everywhere is always clean.
The food is very good and plenty of it.
From management to the cleaners, you're all amazing, thank you!

Absolutely the best care home. Mum has been there for four years. The staff are fantastic. The home itself is spotless, inside and out. They always send updates and have been absolutely brilliant with my dad who visits regularly to the extent when he was ill and unable to visit, they called to check
on him. Wouldn't want Mum to be anywhere else. The whole team are amazing and go above and beyond for the residents. Can't thank them enough or say enough good things about the whole place.

Professional.
Clean, well-run residential home. Food and accommodation are excellent and the staff are exceptional. Activities are stimulating and are ongoing every week or so. If there are any incidents with my mother the staff are quick to inform me of the situation.

Had to move my mum here as we had a family crisis and she was not safe on her own. The manager and his deputy could not have been more helpful. I was so upset leaving her there but Mum has been in two months now and it's the best thing I've done for her. She is doing well and the staff are so kind.
We are always made very welcome and patients and visitors are treated with the utmost respect. I am an ex-carer so my standards are high but I am over the moon with Mum's care.

I've been so comforted that my mother was able to spend her remaining years at Beech House. She recently passed away. Her family have always been made very welcome and encouraged to join in various events organised by the staff. Mum always said everyone was very nice there and she enjoyed the home-cooked
food! I am very grateful to the manager and his team for the help, care and support not only shown to my mother but to her family too.

Beech House Care Home is a lovely happy place. My mother-in-law has been there for over 12 months. She is well looked after and all the staff are all very friendly attentive and helpful. I am impressed that there is always a member of the staff around and near the residents.
They always contact me
immediately if any problems should arise.

My husband moved into Beech House in Spring 2023 and has settled in really well. The staff are wonderful, really caring, and treat him with dignity. The rooms are spotlessly clean, the food is excellent and the entertainment is regular and varied. The management are available at all times to discuss
any matters arising. I really recommend Beech House.

Our mum moved into Beech House in October 2022 and has been very happy there. The staff are warm and caring, as is the atmosphere, and Mum was very well looked after; nothing was ever too much trouble. Sadly, due to unforeseen medical issues, Mum has had to move into a nursing home and has settled in
well. However, we will think of Beech House often and with fond memories. Thank you to all the team.

My Mum came to Beech House over 18 months ago now and has been very well cared for in all aspects by all staff. They work very hard to look after Mum as an individual and have got to know her and how to deal with difficult days! Mum has had a few falls recently due to her condition. Beech House have
been able to continue to look after her and monitor her at the care home once a clinician has assessed her needs to not go to hospital which is brilliant and less traumatic for her.
Now Covid rules have lifted we can visit anytime. Mum likes the meals. The manager and his team are always available if we need to speak to them. We have been contacted by them straight away if they need to inform us about my Mum having had a fall or anything.
It is a lovely environment and they do have regular entertainment and activities which Mum will join in occasionally.
Thank you everyone at Beech House for all you do.

My lovely mum sadly passed away in October 2022, but her time at Beech House from August 2020 was made happy and comfortable by the amazing staff. We never had any cause for concern, and both Mum and our family were treated with respect and compassion right to the end.
Cannot recommend it highly enough.

Beech House is a lovely, small, homely care home, where the staff really do care about the residents, despite the challenges of their Dementia. The level of care my mum has experienced so far is very good and nothing is too much trouble. I like the fact that I can ring the home at any time for an update.
Whenever I contact Beech House with a query, or to book a visit, the response is prompt, professional, and very friendly. Mum has everything she needs, including a well-equipped bedroom and a choice of lounges where she can interact with other residents, as she wishes. On a particular note are the in-house cooking, reliable laundry service and the many activities and outings that are regularly arranged by the enthusiastic team. Hairdresser and chiropodist visits are arranged regularly and mum has access to optician and dentist consultations. Beech House has been diligent in ensuring Covid safety for residents and visitors. Overall, we are so pleased we chose Beech House for mum.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.867)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.867) out of 10 for Beech House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.867 for Beech House is calculated as follows: ( (189 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 211 Ratings = 4.867

  • b) 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 Beech House is based on 18 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 34 registered maximum number of service users is 6.8, which has been reached with 18 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
