  • The Beeches Care Home, Dukinfield
The Beeches Care Home is located in the popular residential area of Dukinfield, Greater Manchester.

At the home, every member of the team is there to offer you the support and care you require, giving you the reassurance that every need is taken care of. But that needn't mean that residents can't live a fulfilled and active lifestyle. Independence and choice are a huge priority for the team, ensuring residents feel empowered to live life the way they want to.

The varied and carefully designed wellbeing and activities programme offers a range of things to get involved in, and connections with the local community are also encouraged, giving residents regular opportunities to get out and about and meet new people. For those who enjoy the slower pace of life, tranquil moments can always be found.

A purpose-built and friendly care home, The Beeches has a range of comfortable en-suite bedrooms to choose from, as well as a popular hair salon and pretty landscaped garden.

I live almost 300 miles away from The Beeches and could not visit as often as I would like. However, Mum's care and quality of life here has been second to none. I know every member of staff here has treated my mum like she was their own mum, this includes the kitchen staff and nighttime carers. The
welcome here is brilliant and I have been lucky to meet many of Mum's fellow residents who all enjoy the same level of care and compassion.
I love all the staff here.

My dad moved into The Beeches around four weeks ago and settled in straight away. He had been on the waiting list for approximately eight months, and we were delighted when a room became available. The Beeches feel like home to me. My granny was a resident here for six years, so my dad was already familiar
with it. Although it's six years since my granny lived here, it felt like only yesterday. There is a genuine family feel, and the staff are very welcoming and caring. It doesn't feel restricted in any way, and I know that my dad is well cared for and safe.

After eight years of attentive care my mother-in-law has passed away, peacefully and with dignity. The staff kept us well informed of her condition between our visits over the last few days. We could see that she was stiill being attended, changed,washed, and kept company even though she had little
conciousness at that time. Everything that we could have wished for was done. The inevitable arrangements were made easy, and advice was available. The staff were supportive of our family and were clearly affected themselves by her passing. They had been like family to her and to us as well. Our thanks can never be enough reward.

Mum has been at The Beeches Care Home for over five months now. She is receiving the very best of care from all the staff. Relatives and family are also receiving the same care. Nothing is too much trouble. Everyone is made to feel welcome. The staff are bright and bubbly (especially the staff in the
office). All the residents appear happy and well cared for.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.934)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.934) out of 10 for The Beeches Care 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 31 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 31 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 4.934 for The Beeches Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (342 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 364 Ratings = 4.934

  • 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 The Beeches Care Home is based on 31 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 32 registered maximum number of service users is 6.4, which has been reached with 31 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.
