Overall Experience  Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5

I find the staff very friendly, whenever I visit mum. Mum is happy and content at the home and enjoys the food. The staff work hard and overall I have no complaints. If I do raise a concern it is usually dealt with or acknowledged.
The only area I would like to improve is encouraging mum to participate
more in activities or 1-1 time, particularly as I can't visit as often as I used to. The management are very good and are always willing to discuss any issued/updates OK.

Mum is being well cared for at Brookholme Residential Home. She has mobility difficulties but is encouraged and supported to walk, giving her essential exercise. When medical problems have occurred prompt arrangements for care from the local GP surgery have been made.
The staff are friendly and approachable
and there is a relaxed atmosphere in the home.
Mum's room is light and airy and the lounge areas are pleasant. She enjoys the food on offer, which is plentiful, and there is sufficient choice to overcome any dislikes.

Current Review Score: 9.0 (9.039)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.0 (9.039) out of 10 for Brookholme Residential Home 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 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.1 out of 5 from 5 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 4.914 for Brookholme Residential Home is calculated as follows: ( (54 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 58 Ratings = 4.914

  • 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 4.125 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Brookholme Residential Home is based on 5 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 = 3.5

    • 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 40 registered maximum number of service users is 8. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 8 = 0.625

  • 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.
