We are very happy to leave my mother-in-law in such a lovely location - it's so clean and beautifully presented - is more of a hotel than a care home. We will defitely be using for future respite stays and would definitely consider if permanent care was needed. All staff are so lovely and caring and
very welcoming.

This place is incredibly well organised. It is clean, attractively decorated; everything works very well and is done with style. Most importantly, all the staff are very professional, charming, good humoured, respectful and have the knack of remembering everyone's names from day 1! The only slight negative
was the food which was occasionally below par.

My aunt has been a resident at Barchester Tewkesbury Fields Care Home since the beginning of July and has settled in well. I have been very impressed with the high level of care given to her along with the fantastic staff and facilities available. There are lots of activities to keep her busy and lovely
trips out. I would highly recommend Tewkesbury Fields.

I only stayed for one week respite care and found the experience very enjoyable. The staff were all very pleasant and helpful. They did not keep disturbing me in the night but I am sure they kept a discrete eye on me to check I was still alive! The food was excellent but I cannot walk without a frame
so I stayed in my room, although they did offer to help me to the dining room every mealtime. There was no shortage of activities to meet every taste. I have a chiropodist and physiotherapist, both of whom were allowed to visit me and treat me as required. There seem to be plenty of meeting places to meet and greet visitors so I did venture out occasionally. It is worth noting that all walkways had a banister so getting around was not too difficult for most people. It would have been more convenient if my room had been a little larger but I look forward to my next visit.

Our whole experience at Barchester Tewkesbury Fields Care Home has been wonderful. Staff are super friendly and really helpful. Being able to use the cafe facilities at any time is wonderful, as is being able to stay for a meal occasionally. My friend loves it here and we are all pleased with his progress.
It
is sometimes hard to realise that this is a care home and not a very welcoming hotel. Thank you all so much.

I couldn't wish for my mum to be in a better place. The care and kindness she receives is excellent. There is so much going on, from music, quizzes, crafts, trips out, and my mum recently celebrated her birthday and was treated to a cake, balloons and entertainment. The staff are very attentive and
friendly and very professional at all times. They are always happy to talk over any worries and deal with any requests. Thank you to everyone at Barchester Tewkesbury Fields Care Home.

My aunt has recently moved into the home but initially was very resistant to moving to any care home at all. I am delighted with how well she has settled in such a short space of time and can only put this down to the welcoming and caring approach of the staff in the home. It's such an enormous relief
for me to know she is safe and well looked after.

Mum has dementia and came in for respite care. The changes to her frame of mind and cleanliness were so improved that the decision was made by us as a family with Mum's agreement for her to remain. We believe this is all due to the care of the staff. The transfer from respite to permanent was made simple
and straightforward with the guidance and help of the management and admin staff.

We were looking for a residential care home for my mother, on inspection we were happy with everything Tewkesbury Fields had to offer. Mum has been here for 10 months now and her quality of life since being here has greatly improved. The social activities and food are first-class and the staff are all
so friendly and helpful.

My friend of almost fifty years has no living relatives and when he started showing signs of being unsafe and incapable of living alone, my wife and I decided he required professional help and attention.
Having investigated other care homes, it was obvious that Barchester Tewkesbury Fields Care Home
was, by far, the best option available. He was welcomed to the home and settled very quickly due to the actions of the manager and staff.
The care and attention given, backed up with excellent facilities, food etc., shows we obviously made the correct decision.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.837)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.837) out of 10 for Barchester Tewkesbury Fields Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 31 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 31 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 4.837 for Barchester Tewkesbury Fields Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (316 Excellents x 5) + (46 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 369 Ratings = 4.837

  • 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 Barchester Tewkesbury Fields Care Home is based on 31 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 31 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.
