Overall Experience  Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5

Berkeley is a clean and presentable home. I feel there are a few minor issues at present, but other problems have been dealt with by the new manager.
The majority of the staff are very friendly, but very busy. This stops a lot of interaction with the residents.
My mother has a good appetite, and has
no complaints regarding the food served. Fluids are now more available in the rooms and in the lounge, but many of the residents need encouragement to drink but are unable to serve themselves.
All in all, Berkeley is a comfortable, clean and normally happy care home, and I wouldn't discourage anyone not to apply to live there.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.833)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.833) out of 10 for Berkeley House 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 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 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 4.833 for Berkeley House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (202 Excellents x 5) + (34 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 239 Ratings = 4.833

  • 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 Berkeley House Care Home is based on 20 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 84 registered maximum number of service users is 16.8, which has been reached with 20 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: Activity Coordinator

Joined: 2018

I have worked at Berkeley House Care home since 2018 but worked at another Bupa Care Home prior to this for 13 years. My main roles before becoming an Activities Coordinator were housekeeping and laundry. My journey with Bupa began as a housekeeper until my Unit Manager put me forward to the activities team. I haven’t looked back since! I applied for a job at Berkeley House as a new opportunity and the rest is history.
I am local to Berkeley House, just a five-minute walk away. I have a husband, two daughters and four grandchildren. My hobbies are going on holiday, seeing my friends and I am passionate about my eyelashes! I like music, dancing and being happy. My motto is “If you’re happy, I’m happy”.
