My Dad had dementia and was taken to hospital. After treatment of an infection he picked up, we were informed that he needed more care than the present care home could provide and were told that Braeside Nursing Home had a vacancy. After reading some of the reviews we were quite concerned however, these
were unfounded. The nursing home is spotlessly clean although a little tired but the staff couldn't do enough for you and actioned (within reason) any requests put to them. They're helpful and cheerful rather than grudgingly carrying out residents'/families' wishes and preferences. As a family, we were overall very pleased with Braeside and its staff.

My Grandma has recently been a resident at Braeside Nursing Home. The care provided by the staff was exceptional. The staff were caring and kind and treated my Grandma with great respect and dignity. Braeside became a lovely home for her in her final days and months and we could not have asked for better
care. Thank you for everything you did for her. With love from my family.

My mum is a resident in the EMI unit and has only been there just over a week. She has been in two other homes previously, which were fine but I can honestly say that Braeside is an absolute gem and that is after such a short time of her being here. It is spotlessly clean, Mums room is lovely, all the
staff are extremely friendly and nothing is too much trouble. You are welcome at any time of the day or night and I have been kept up to date with all that is going on with Mum, both medically and personally. The staff are very attentive and I couldn't ask for more than that. They actually appear to be happy working there and I put that down to good management. My dad was a resident four years back and a lot of the staff are still there so something must be right. My uncle, Mums brother-in-law, visited and his first words to me were about how clean Mum looked and he is absolutely correct. No one wants to place a loved one into care but I am so grateful Mum is in one of the best with Braeside.

My Mum has been a resident for over a year now and after settling in very quickly she is still very happy. All the staff do a great job and I feel that they treat residents as they would their own elderly family with respect and dignity.
When I visit the atmosphere is always friendly and I always
leave knowing she is in safe hands which means I have peace of mind.
I recommend Braeside highly.

My sister has lived at Braeside for some time, unfortunately she passed away on Friday 30th of March. I can honestly say she was very happy living there, her comments on the good meals she had and the care she received mean a lot to me as I live far away and was unable to visit as much as I would have
liked. Also the carers were always kind on the telephone. The last time I came up I was able to spend some time with her in her room which was spotless. I was more than happy with my visit. I would like to thank everyone for the care they gave her to the end. Wishing Braeside carers and staff every success for the future.

Current Review Score: 7.8 (7.832)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 7.8 (7.832) out of 10 for Braeside 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 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.1 out of 5 from 1 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 4.700 for Braeside Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (7 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 10 Ratings = 4.7

  • 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 3.132 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Braeside Nursing Home is based on 1 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 = 3

    • 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 38 registered maximum number of service users is 7.6. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 7.6 = 0.132

  • 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.
