Located in the heart of the Sauchie area of Alloa, Beechwood Park Care Home offers Nursing and Dementia care across five individual self-contained specialist care communities, where all the bedrooms are tastefully decorated and furnished to a high standard, each complete with ensuite facilities. The home has beautiful views of the large landscaped gardens, and there’s a summer house where residents enjoy outdoor activities.

The home has been organised to minimise symptoms of confusion or disorientation, allowing it to welcome clients with different types of dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease and vascular dementia.

With its own dementia training, the home highlights the importance of meaningful activities and a stimulating environment for people living with dementia, in addition to addressing clinical aspects of care. This specialist training also provides the hospitality team and chefs with the skills and knowledge to stimulate senses and increase creativity in the cooking and presentation of food. This can provide a much improved dining experience for residents living with dementia and or dysphagia.

I live abroad and Mum moved into Beechwood Park Nursing Home before I came home.
I have been so impressed with the care and attention she has received here. The staff have been attentive and accommodating.
The room is clean and warm. I am particularly impressed with the domestic staff who do a superb
job.
I am also particularly impressed with the manager.
He goes above and beyond to look after the comfort of the residents and their families.

I brought my wife here three weeks ago and have been more than pleased with the care she has received since arriving. The staff have pulled out all the stops to cater for her needs and that hasn't always been easy. So I have no hesitation in recommending Beechwood Park to others looking for a place
to care for their loved ones.

Reply from Marek Tarnaswki, Home Manager at Beechwood Park Nursing Home

My husband is now resident at Beechwood after refusing a place six months ago due to a disagreeable rude manager at the time. The atmosphere has changed dramatically - changes due to new management.
The staff are helpful and caring to my husband. The handyman is a gem. The laundry organisation superb.
Meals are tasty, nourishing.
Need activities.
Communal areas are sparce, some areas have had a facelift, needs to be throughout. Housekeeping is smashing, she greets everyone with a smile as does the receptionist, a huge thanks to all of you lovely people.
The Manager and assistant manager, both these guys are working their socks off. I've only recently just met this pair and I pride myself as being a good judge of character and I predict they will make this care facility the best it can be. This is going to be the care home that gives and gives, it's the place to be. All the best guys.

Mum was only at Beechwood Park Nursing Home for ten weeks, during this time, she received excellent care from all staff, particularly a good senior nurse and care assistants. She was treated with respect and was forming lovely bonds. Her meals were always well-presented and this helped to increase her
appetite and she commented they were very tasty! We were impressed by the efficiency and care of the laundry services too.
At the time of Mum's passing, she was given excellent palliative care by the trained nurses and care assistants. As a retired nurse, I felt grateful that I was afforded the ability to be her daughter and not her carer. The support our large family were also given at this time was also exemplary. A homely care home!

What a wonderful family day at Beechwood Park Nursing Home on Saturday, June 29, 2024. Just another example of how the team pays extraordinary attention to making sure the residents live in a safe, fun and happy environment. Live singing, a pipe and drums band, plenty of dancing and Chef Ian's wonderful
goodies. A great time was had by all who attended. Thank you to the whole team for always taking such good care of mom and dad, and making us feel welcome.

The staff and management at Beechwood Park Nursing Home are very dedicated and made my father and myself feel very welcome when my mum was a resident. Now my father is a resident, in the same home. I am delighted to have him here as I know a lot of the staff. The bedroom is lovely and nothing is too
much a problem.

After a long spell in hospital, my brother moved into Beechwood Nursing Home in Sauchie Clackmannan, as he was no longer able to live alone, he has settled very well and is very happy with his care, he is impressed with his large bedroom although the outlook is not great. He gets the opportunity to
go to a sitting room during the day and also goes to the dining room for meals, he is on a special diet and the home is very accommodating for this, and we were impressed that the chef is trained in dysphasia food preparation, and he seems to be thriving and stronger since transferring to the care home. A full refurbishment is underway in the home, but should be complete by the end of March.

Our experience with moving both Mom and Dad into Beechwood Park Nursing Home has been excellent. The manager has been extremely accommodating, everyone has been very welcoming and the care they are receiving is excellent. I know they are in good hands which is critical as I live overseas. Dad recently
had a medical emergency and the way it was handled was outstanding. Thank you!

The manager and all staff couldn't have been any more helpful in getting my parents settled in. They have gone above and beyond any expectations we had, to ensure the best possible care and supported us as well during this period. Communication has been good throughout. Any issues/concerns we have had
the team has listened to and come up with successful solutions.
It has made it very easy for us to relax knowing that my parents are getting great care.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.772)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.772) out of 10 for Beechwood Park Nursing 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 19 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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 4.772 for Beechwood Park Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (175 Excellents x 5) + (39 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 219 Ratings = 4.772

  • 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 Beechwood Park Nursing Home is based on 19 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 62 registered maximum number of service users is 12.4, which has been reached with 19 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.

Job Title: Home Manager

Marek is our Home Manager at Beechwood Park – here’s a glimpse into his role at the home in his own words:

“With over 20 years of experience within the care home sector, I remain deeply passionate about improving the experiences of residents, colleagues, and visitors in our care home. I’m responsible for managing the day-to-day operations of the home, ensuring the highest standards of care and service are delivered in a safe, comfortable, and enriching environment for all residents.

I work hard to foster open communication with residents and their families, ensuring their needs and concerns are heard and addressed, and by leading the team with a focus on person-centred care, we’ve created an environment where residents feel respected and valued.

I aim to further develop our ties with the local community, through volunteer programs, partnerships with local organisations, and initiatives that bring residents and the wider community together. Strengthening these connections enhances the residents’ social lives and enriches the culture of the care home.

Ultimately, the joy in this role comes from the opportunity to make a lasting, positive impact on individuals’ lives while continuously learning and growing as a leader.”
