My dad has settled into Braintree Nursing Home after being extremely unhappy previously in a residential home. His daily needs are met and his medication is given on time. All the staff are very smiley and friendly and go out of their way to help with any problems. One member of staff, in particular,
is a godsend and keeps all the residents involved in activities and makes them all feel special. Dad enjoys the food and the way the staff takes time to talk to him.

The care you have given my mum has been very caring and so helpful to my mother and helping her to get better but it's a slow road to get better. The staff have been so supportive to our mother and family too and myself which has been so good.
Mum has enjoyed the company from all and keep up the good
work. Thank you.
Note, on two times this has happened. Just one thing is please make sure the alarm/button, which are there for residents, are at the bedside where they can use for help etc. because my mother can't sit up out of bed to get to it. Needs to be with them.

Staff at a very low morale as when I first came they were so happy.
They are very well looked after. I'm glad to say my husband gets very spoilt. They keep the home very clean. So very happy.

My mum, who has Alzheimer's, was welcomed into Braintree Nursing Home, with care, patience and understanding. All the staff and carers are professional, warm and friendly and our family have always been made to feel welcome and included in all decisions regarding Mum's care. The food is really good
and there are outings and in-house activities, to keep residents active and stimulated. The home has a real family atmosphere and I would not hesitate to recommend it.

I have been here since August 2021 till now, February 2022. I have loved the home since the day I came here. Everybody is so helpful from staff to the residents, I found two ladies who are activities people, who do activities with the residents. These staff members made all the residents join in the
fun. All the care staff, from the kitchen to the cleaning staff are all very lovely and caring and the management are very understanding and helpful. I would love to stay here again. I really enjoyed the friendly atmosphere.

Finding a nursing home for mum was one of the hardest things my sister and I have had to do, but this place is not just a 'care' home, it is a caring home. Cosmetically it wasn't the smartest one I saw, but it was the warmest and most homely. After 6 months there my mum, who suffers from dementia, is
so much more stable and physically healthy than she has been in the last couple of years. She loves the food and has gained weight. The staff are just lovely - I can't praise them highly enough, and mum always tells me they are wonderful. There is the security of having trained nurses as well as carers there. The rooms are nice and they encouraged me to personalise it with mum's possessions before she moved in. We are very happy with our choice.

Braintree Nursing home have provided and are currently providing excellent care for my father, as a family we have found the manager approachable, considerate and most importantly highly professional. I have appeared unannounced from the West Country at various times of the day and night only to find
my father well cared for, safe. This nursing home has improved the quality of my fathers life through their dedicated holistic approach.
I wish to take this opportunity to address the public compliance report and voice my astonishment that they were not awarded excellent throughout. It is an unfair portrayal for an excellent service provider and dedicated team.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.667)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.667) out of 10 for Braintree Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 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 4.667 for Braintree Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (91 Excellents x 5) + (33 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 129 Ratings = 4.667

  • 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 Braintree Nursing Home is based on 11 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 51 registered maximum number of service users is 10.2, which has been reached with 11 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.
