Very friendly and nothing is too much to ask. Anything is done quickly and efficiently with no delay. The community relations manager informs us straight away if there is a problem with my father and finds a solution easily. He really cares for all the residents and appears to be devoted to every member
of staff equally. We are very grateful to him for all he has done for us.

After a long period in hospital, it could have been a difficult decision but it was made easy with excellent communication, information that was clear, transparent and responsive. Dad is very happy, eating like a horse and his mobility is improving. The online portal provides me with reassurance when
I am unable to visit. A first-class place with first-class staff. It has transformed our lives and relationships - no stress at all!

We are so pleased that your father is thriving at Blenheim House and that our care and communication has helped your family find reassurance. Your father is becoming a popular figure in our community and this is fantastic to see! We will share your kind words with the rest of our teams.

We were warmly greeted on arrival and made to feel very welcome by your reception staff. We were then introduced to the customer care manager who gave us a very friendly and comprehensive tour of Blenheim House. We were very impressed and my husband said he would like to spend two weeks respite care
there. The support and nursing staff were very professional and caring and his room was very nice. He also enjoys his meals. I am sure we will have respite care there again and would thoroughly recommend Blenheim House.

I came in Blenheim House on the 8th of June quite upset about leaving my home after 58 years, but I must say not living here long before I felt at home. The people here are all very kind and caring. I have a very nice room, which I am pleased with, kept nice and clean. I am very happy here and make
friends with most. There is quite a lot going on each day and lovely gardens to walk around, so in all, I am very grateful.

From my first visit to assess the home, the visits to my father and to the last day of his respite care, I have been met with continued feelings of warmth, kindness and a desire to make my father's stay as enjoyable an experience as possible.
My father is very impressed and he has thoroughly enjoyed
his two weeks stay at the home. A very caring and relaxing environment, it is a credit to all the staff here at the home.

I was shown around the home by a very helpful man who covered the home extremely thoroughly, showing us all aspects of the home with enthusiasm and knowledge. Communication throughout the admission process was excellent and reassuring. My mam's room is beautifully decorated, and photos were sent to
us well in advance of moving in. Mum is very happy here at Blenheim House, and I would certainly recommend the home to any families looking for care for their loved ones. Care-wise, I think the care at Blenheim House has been excellent, everyone has been so kind and ready to help my mam. This stay has done her the world of good.

My father spent two weeks having respite care in June. We cannot speak more highly of the care and attention that our father has received.
'I have been spoilt rotten' was my father's comment every time I visited him.
The staff have been so professional and respected towards our father and have at
all times been caring and friendly. Activities were plentiful and the garden was enjoyed. We cannot be more plentiful and thank you to all the staff for letting us 'catch breath' before he returns home.

We had been in contact with Blenheim House for a few months in the hope of getting my father in for some respite care. They were constantly in contact with us in terms of availability and when a date finally became available my father was over the moon and we thank Blenheim for finding him a room.
He thoroughly enjoyed his time at Blenheim House, the room and property was excellent and the surroundings, particularly the gardens were lovely. All the staff were so incredibly kind and patient with him and he was always grateful for their care and attention. Our thanks to all who looked after him during his stay.

We were super impressed with the way in which my mother-in-law’s move to Blenheim was handled. We received first-class help and support from everyone we came into contact with. The admissions process was faultless – we were guided through the entire process smoothly, carefully and very professionally,
ensuring her path into Blenheim was smooth and as stress-free as possible. We received a genuinely warm welcome from every member of staff we saw on arrival - a very pleasing and reassuring experience - as her next chapter begins, it is clear the entire team pulls together and wants to give their best. The home is lovely with excellent facilities.

Our mother spent seven years at Blenheim House, and we could not have chosen a better place for her to end her journey. At all times, the staff were amazing - very caring and loving towards her and very supportive of us - we always had a warm welcome when we visited and were very happy that Mother was
being looked after by people who actually cared that she was happy and comfortable - nothing was too much for them. Towards the end, all the staff were very supportive of us and facilitated visiting Mother whenever we wanted to. We will miss all the lovely friends that we made at Blenheim House and cannot thank them enough for making Mother's last few years as happy and comfortable as possible. I would recommend Blenheim House wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a safe, comfortable and happy environment for their loved ones.

Our beloved mother passed away at the beginning of April after being looked after at Blenheim for the past eight and a half years. We couldn't have wished for a better place for her to have ended her journey. Everyone she came into contact with in all her time there looked after her with kindness, warmth,
dignity and with professionalism. They also cared about the welfare of my sister and I as well, especially in her final days. I cannot recommend Blenheim, and the excellent level of care she received there highly enough. Thank you.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.693)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.693) out of 10 for Blenheim House Care 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 24 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.693 for Blenheim House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (232 Excellents x 5) + (35 Goods x 4) + (11 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) + (4 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 287 Ratings = 4.693

  • 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 Blenheim House Care Home is based on 23 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 85 registered maximum number of service users is 17, which has been reached with 23 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.
