Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review and for your kind words/feedback about your mum's respite stay with us and that we could care and support her during her recuperation following surgery. It is important to us that all our residents and their loved ones feel part of our Brook House family and that they call this their home.

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.852) out of 10 for Brook House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 32 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 32 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.
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 4.852 for Brook House is calculated as follows: ( (328 Excellents x 5) + (46 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 378 Ratings = 4.852
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 Brook House is based on 32 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 53 registered maximum number of service users is 10.6, which has been reached with 32 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
Rhiannon is our Home Manager at Brook House Care Home, here’s a little bit more about herself and the home in her own words:
“One of the best things about my job is knowing that our residents are living their best life, seeing their smiles, and knowing we are looking after them.
I strive for continuous improvement and like to be hands-on and involved in the day-to-day care. I maintain good communication with my team, residents and families and feel that it is important to get to know everyone. I also like to have good community engagement, as it is important that our home is part of our local community.
Everything we do at Brook House is from the heart and it is not a job, but a passion. We are building a home together – team and residents.
There is always a lot going on in the area that we can get involved in. If you’d like to see our home please do get in touch, I would love to show you around.”
