My mum has been in Brushwood since 18th of November for some respite care, the staff are amazing. I have never had any experiences with care homes until now, and I couldn't be happier.
My mum looks so well, and she is very happy. I would highly recommend this home to anyone who finds they need some
care for there elderly relatives.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

My beautiful Mum moved into Brushwood in September and is settled in nicely. I can't begin to say how happy the family are with the home. We have had terrible trouble in the past with certain homes which can cause worry, upset and stress on the family but finally, we feel we now have a place we can
call home for our mum. Although it is still early with the move I can see the difference in mum already, she seems very happy and settled which is a massive relief to all the family. The staff are truly amazing and that includes everyone, reception, kitchen staff, nurses and of course the carers. Nothing is too much for any of the staff and they are so caring and helpful. I honestly feel she is genuinely loved by the staff. Every time I visit mum she is always having her handheld or being made a fuss over by the amazing staff. From someone who has searched years in looking for a home for there mum, I can honestly say this is the best! It's just a shame all other homes aren't this standard.

Current Review Score: 7.4 (7.407)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 7.4 (7.407) out of 10 for Brushwood is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 3.9 out of 5 from 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.5 out of 5 from 3 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 3.907 for Brushwood is calculated as follows: ( (17 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (4 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 43 Ratings = 3.907

  • 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 3.5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Brushwood is based on 3 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 = 3.25

    • 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. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 12 = 0.25

  • 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.
