All the bedrooms are very welcoming with personal belongings and have an ensuite. I find all the facilities and staff extremely good and caring. The home itself is always clean and tidy and the atmosphere is welcoming. I would always recommend Bridgewood to anyone needing care and nursing.

We would recommend Bridgewood Mews. They are caring, respect dignity and all the staff are very helpful and friendly at all times. Residents are treated with respect and as an individual, regardless of their needs. My son feels happy and safe in their care. Families are urged to take involvement in
care plans and are kept aware of everything.

Warm, kind and very caring carers more like friends, ensuring my partner is well looked after in every aspect. The management team are brilliant, nothing is too much trouble, any queries dealt with on the spot or as near as. Nurses are impeccable. I trust them 100 per cent. No worries for me and my
partner has excellent care. Win-win situation. Most of all my partner is happy.

Current Review Score: 8.6 (8.583)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.6 (8.583) out of 10 for Bridgewood Mews is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.6 out of 5 from 2 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 4.958 for Bridgewood Mews is calculated as follows: ( (23 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 24 Ratings = 4.958

  • 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 3.625 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bridgewood Mews is based on 2 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 = 3.125

    • 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 20 registered maximum number of service users is 4. 2 Positive Reviews ÷ 4 = 0.5

  • 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.

Job Title: Registered Manager

Joined: 2019

Hi, I’m Amanda and I’m the Registered Manager at Bridgewood Mews in Tipton.


I qualified as a Registered General Nurse in 1998 and worked as an Orthopedic Sister for most of those years. I’m a surgical nurse by background and have worked in numerous care settings.


Since leaving the NHS in 2015, I’ve worked as a Cosmetic Nurse and Disability Assessor. I have also worked as a Nurse in a nursing home and agency nursing. I was keen to develop my management experience and became a Deputy Manager before progressing to Home Manager.


I have been at Bridgewood Mews, with Exemplar Health Care, since November 2019 and have enjoyed every moment of working here.
