Myself and my children visited my aunty at the weekend, we are from Essex. I was very emotional seeing her but I was very impressed by the care the staff give. They allowed me to stay with her all day, made me hot drinks, even offered me some lunch, I saw her lovely room all perfect. She loves the music
on the TV and loves her food. Seeing someone you love contented was a great relief to us all. Thank you ladies for taking care of her and all her needs.

Imagine being informed by medical staff on New Year's Day that your elderly mother cannot stay another night in her own home, and you need to find a care home immediately. We were then given a long list of local homes to call. The first two that we called could not help, as there were no senior staff
working that day. A third said they would call me back, but never did. I struck gold with the fourth call to The Beeches Care Home. I could not even finish explaining the issue when they said just come immediately. We were so relieved, and delighted. We were greeted at the door when we arrived, and nothing was too much trouble, and never was during the 17 night stay before mum sadly passed away peacefully, with a member of staff holding her hand. Every single member of staff is caring, considerate and thoughtful, and we cannot praise them enough for what they did for mum and us as a close-knit small family. The home is clean, and efficiently run with an air of calmness, and the rooms are lovely.

The Beeches is a friendly care home where carers treat residents with kindness and respect. It is under new management this year and is being well-ked by an experienced and proactive senior team. The appointment of an amazing activities coordinator means there's lots going on to break up the days for
residents and events for families to get involved in too.

I find the staff pleasant, welcoming and efficient when dealing with health problems.
Residents are encouraged to join in activities and watching visiting performers.
The rooms are good overall, but the en-suites need modernising to a better standard.

I have just recently lost my dad in there. He declined so fast and had to stay there for approximately 4-5 months. All the staff were brilliant with him and his care was exceptional. I can't thank them enough and I know he was happy there. They now have my mother there and she is obviously grieving
and they are taking very good care of her. Thank you everyone.

On visiting today 18/10 to see my mother-in-law, I was pleased to see a coffee morning in aid of breast cancer. I saw it was promoted on The Beeches social media account. Really enjoyed coffee and cake. The new social media page is a great way to see what's planned for the future and see pictures of
previous events like the pirate day that happened, loved the parrot pictures and looked great. Well done to all involved.

I feel that the care and attention given to my father is excellent.
As I live more than 200 miles away, I visit every few months. Over the past few months I feel that with the change in management, I notice an improvement as I walk in with regard for cleanliness, more activities etc. Without exception
all carers do a magnificent job which is greatly appreciated.

My mom has been a resident and for 4 months now the very first time we arrived we were met with smiles and friendly faces. They really do care and it's good to know that my mum is very happy in her new surroundings and that when we go to see her mom is very well looked after and always with clean clothes
on and very clean herself. When we leave we know mom is cared for and we how we would want for ourselves.

When my nan went into the home I was really worried, however, when I went to visit and saw her room and met the staff my worries were alleviated. The staff are fantastic with my nan. The level of care and compassion they give is brilliant. My nan loves the activities and looks forward to them, nothing
is too much trouble for the staff and we as a family can relax knowing she is taken care of.

I was recommended the home by a friend whose parents had both been cared for here. The staff have been marvellous settling Mum in. During this COVID-19 crisis, the staff have been amazing, reassuring families and keeping the home virus free. They have kept the residents busy and happy in a time of great
uncertainty. They have tried hard to maintain a connection to the family for the residents. The care my mum has received has helped ease my concerns and I have confidence she is safe and having her physical and emotional needs met.

Reply from Julie Walker, Customer Relations Officer at The Beeches Care Home

Thank you for your kind words, Allison, we all appreciate them greatly. Your mum has settled in and is a pleasure to care for. We're looking forward to when the situation changes, and we can all meet up. Take care and keep safe.

Would highly recommend this care home. The staff are absolutely fantastic they couldn't do more to help my nanna if they tried. They looked after my nanna and her family when visiting extremely well always made to feel welcome. When she was on her last few days we all stayed 24/7 with her and again
I couldn't fault they always asked if we needed anything, if we were all comfortable. It is just a fantastic place from the start to the finish.

My Nana moved into The Beeches 3 weeks ago and her health declined rapidly and she sadly passed away, the care my Nana received was absolutely fantastic and I cannot thank the staff team enough, they are so compassionate and caring my Nana was treated with dignity and respect right until her last breath
and I am forever grateful for that. They made the most unbearable moments bearable and looked after the family with so much love nothing was an effort. Thanks to the amazing Beeches team.

I came home from Canada on September 9th to find dad in hospital. We soon realised dad was going to need 24hr care. We visited 5 care homes in the area and felt The Beeches was the best home by a long way to fit his needs.
The staff from the management team to the handyman have made to move to the

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.563)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.563) 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 4.6 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 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 4.563 for The Beeches Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (102 Excellents x 5) + (32 Goods x 4) + (17 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 151 Ratings = 4.563

  • 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 13 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 64 registered maximum number of service users is 12.8, which has been reached with 13 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.
