Beech Hill Grange is an incredible care home. My mom was taken in for palliative care and after a challenging time with hospitals and lack of communication, the staff at Beech Hill were incredible in their care and communication. The whole place is amazing with its facilities as a care home and all
the staff, truly easing and providing comfort for my mom and in turn, our family.
I would like to especially thank a nurse, in particular for all of her kindness to my mom when working with her and to the many family members she took under her wing during the difficult experience, we are and always will be so grateful.
There were two sisters who were also exceptional and always smiling and a special mention to Blue, the cat, who we loved.
When my mom finally passed away, the staff brought us mounds of tea and biscuits and as much time as we wanted to spend with Mom, we will always feel indebted to the staff of Beech Hill for the kindness and dignity they granted to my mom at the end of her life. Thank you.

From day one, on arrival 13/12/2022, they have been marvellous. We arrived very late after a long journey from Edinburgh, immediately, staff were at hand with a wheelchair. They were so compassionate and immediately caring. From day one, my aunt has had the most marvellous 'total care' - I have loved
her being there. The room she has is excellent, it can be furnished with her own items (if she wanted), all her personal care in 100%, emotionally and physically another 100%. As said, it's "home from home", I feel, as a relative, very included. I'm actually happy to think even I would be happy as a resident eventually.

Reply from Sonia Nixon, Home Manager at Beech Hill Grange

It's wonderful to hear such positive feedback about the care your aunt has received! It sounds like the staff went above and beyond from the moment you arrived, ensuring that both you and your aunt felt supported and comfortable after a long journey. The fact that they immediately provided compassionate care and made you feel included as a relative is truly heartwarming. It's also great to know that the facilities allow for personal touches, like bringing in familiar items to make the space feel like home. Your description of the care being 100%, both emotionally and physically, shows how dedicated the team is to your aunt's well-being. The idea that you would feel comfortable living there yourself someday speaks volumes about the quality of care and environment. Thank you for sharing this lovely review!

I came to visit my aunt during dinner time. She looked very well for her age. It can be a little difficult at that time as some residents tend to play up a bit. But all in all the staff tend to deal with situations very well. Probably need another member of staff on at meals to help residents who find
it hard to eat and some can be disruptive to other residents at that time. Otherwise very good and plenty of activities.

Reply from Sonia Nixon, Home Manager at Beech Hill Grange

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're so glad to hear that your aunt is doing well and that you observed how our team manages various situations.

My dear mother has now been a resident of your wonderful care home for just over six years now. And to say that I am so glad that we chose Beech Hill Grange Care Home is an understatement. I have seen many carers, nurses and other staff come and go over the years and I have always been met with that
same high level of care and dedication from these wonderful and professional people. I have always been welcomed by a smile and a chat and made to feel at home and comfortable throughout my many visits to my mum.
What I also love about Beech Hill Grange is the building itself. The interior has that feeling of "home from home" and what I mean by throughout is the structure and decor of all the communal rooms reminds me so much of my mum's home, a style shared by so many from my mum's generation. I'm sure this helped my mum settle in very quickly.
Also, at the back of the care home is a huge patio and a well-kept grassed area amongst the trees and plants that I'm sure my mum loves.

My wife has been a resident here for almost three years with Alzheimer's and has received excellent levels of care, compassion and consideration that the whole team show to all residents. A variety of activities and entertainment complements this.
Led now by a determined, enthusiastic manager, I can
see how this will motivate all departments to even better performance levels.

My father-in-law was moved due to cost from another home where he flourished to Beech Hill Grange. As a sufferer of both vascular dementia/Alzheimers, we knew change could lead to agitation. His grandson was called out on 5 consecutive nights even at 2 am to settle his grandad. BHG chose to do a telephone
assessment and knew no facts about him. It was only after asking for a meeting with a temporary manager this was addressed. We never once saw him engaged in any activity or any other resident. After less than 3 months he was given 28 days' notice to leave due to his challenging behaviour. An incident whereby they asked the paramedics to take him to the hospital to check his hand, the hospital found nothing wrong but as that day was the 28th day they refused to take him back. They clearly do not have the skills nor desire to care for people with dementia or Alzheimers. This home would only be fit for purpose if you are frail or catatonic and require no engagement with anybody.

Reply from Sonia Nixon, Manager at Beech Hill Grange

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We understand how important it is to find the right care for your loved one, especially with dementia or Alzheimer's. At Beech Hill Grange, we carefully assess each resident's needs and always strive to provide appropriate care. We regret that your father-in-law's stay did not meet your expectations, but please know that our staff worked hard to support him, including involving family members when it was believed to be in his best interest. Regarding the notice to leave, this decision is made only after very careful consideration and with the safety/wellbeing of everyone in mind. We also strive to engage all residents in activities suitable to their needs, and we are sorry if this was not evident during his stay. We take all feedback seriously and are committed to providing the highest standard of care. If you would like to discuss this further, please feel free to contact me directly. Thank you again for your comments.

I am more than satisfied with the care my husband receives at Beech Hill Grange. He has been there for about sixteen months as I am too ill to care for him at home. Most of the time, he is happy and settled but due to his condition, some days he is unhappy but the staff really understand his condition
and help him, talking to him and sometimes even singing with him. I am kept in the loop about his care from the senior staff and always consulted about ongoing care or any changes. Every member of staff is friendly, caring and professional.

I am visiting an elderly gentleman who is in Beech Hill Grange Care Home. As soon as I entered the home, I was made welcome, i.e. management and all staff. My friend (95) is so well looked after and it's down to the care and attention given to him as he wasn't expected to live when he first came to
Beech Hill sixteen weeks ago. Apart from the excellent staff, I love the resident cat, Blie, who also greets me when I visit! 10/10.

I visit a resident at Beech Hill Grange every week. I am always greeted at the door with a smile and made to feel welcome. It is exactly like visiting family. Without exception, I have found all the staff the same, very caring and concerned for the welfare of all in the home. The facilities are superb
and very well maintained. If I had to enter a care home this is the place I would wish to be.

Having visited my mother for two years at Beech Hill Grange, I can honestly say that I've been delighted with this loving, caring nursing home. The environment is plush and attractive. When visiting the care of residents is evidently outstanding. Clients are clean, well-nourished (great meals), well-entertained
and dressed in well-coordinated outfits. Any unwanted facial hair is promptly removed. Clients enjoyed free hair-dressing on the saloon with qualified hairdressers - multiple times weekly if they fancy!
Leaders and managers are rigorous and on the ball. Staff genuinely care about their chargers, I feel so glad to have found this gen which offers excellent value for money when compared to similar settings.

My mother has been living at Beech Hill Grange for just over a year and I feel it necessary to place on record just how well she is looked after.
My mother is severely disabled as a result of a major stroke she suffered in March 2018. As a result, she requires total nursing care and is peg fed as she
is unable to swallow. She is superbly looked after by the staff on a day to day basis, the nursing staff follow up any issues or enquiries raised about her needs. This ethos is supported totally by managers in the home. Members of our family can feel relaxed and reassured about the quality of care, help and stimulation she receives and unlike other homes, we have had dealings with we can feel absolute confidence in Beech Hill Grange.
Given our mother's situation, they provide the best we could hope for. Our thanks and gratitude goes to all of the very caring staff.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.681)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.681) out of 10 for Beech Hill Grange 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 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.681 for Beech Hill Grange is calculated as follows: ( (167 Excellents x 5) + (23 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) + (7 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 204 Ratings = 4.681

  • 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 Beech Hill Grange is based on 16 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 74 registered maximum number of service users is 14.8, which has been reached with 16 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.
