I enjoy visiting the home, it is such a relaxed atmosphere. My relative, on residential AD, says it's her home. Everyone seems happy in the home, lots of laughter. The home is clean and lots of changes with the decor. Every time I go, there is something new added to the home, lots of staff around attending
to residents. The garden area is lovely and big and used well. The staff are really kind to everyone and activities are brilliant. There was a singer on when I went, she is amazing, she got everyone up dancing, so lovely to see.

Mum is very happy and well cared for in the home. She has had ups and downs but has come through and eating and drinking again with the care from the carers, and the staff are always friendly and approachable. She likes the entertainment watching the singers and going to the bar and tearoom.

My mother has lived in Brackenfield Hall for nearly six years and has received a high level of care and support throughout her time here. She is clean and well cared for and her personal needs are met. My mother struggles to communicate socially and will voice her concerns and opinions to me rather
than staff so I would like my mother approached more frequently by staff to ask if she needs anything. On the whole, care is excellent.

Reply from Cheryl Schofield, Home Manager at Brackenfield Hall

Thank you for taking the time to review Brackenfield Hall. We are really pleased to hear you are happy with the care your mum receives with us, I will pass on the feedback to the team. We are more than happy to offer additional check-ins with your mum to ensure she is feeling settled and offer anything additional she may need. If you wish to discuss this with me, I am happy to do so at a mutually convent time.

My wife has been in the care home six weeks (i.e. Brackenfield Hall). During this time, she has been well looked after, she seems happy and settled, the staff are all helpful and caring. On a personal note, I would like to thank the deputy and team leaders who threw a comforting arm around me during
the first four weeks. Many thanks.
P.S. I would recommend this care home.

Always very welcoming and the carers work really hard, looking after a lot of residents.
Any queries are dealt with and I am phoned immediately if any problems.
My mum had a fall about six weeks ago, they phoned for an ambulance and by the time I arrived the paramedics were there and dealing with
her. Fortunately, it wasn’t a serious fall but it made me feel confident in the people there.
I have given four for food as I am never there at mealtimes when they are busy. Mum seems happy with the food.

The most excellent care is given by all of the staff to my grandad. Everyone is welcoming and very polite. Food is great. Excellent accommodation to stay at. All around excellent service. My grandad always looks very happy and enjoys his stay here. The staff at Brackenfield Hall Care Home are very helpful
and supportive when it comes to seeing to both care home residents and their family members that visit. During my grandad's stay, there has been a big improvement in his physical and emotional well-being.

Mum has only been at Brackenfield a short time but I know it's been the best move, as her emotional health and mobility has improved already. Brackenfield has a lovely family feel and there's always a smile, friendly face and a chat. Every member of staff and management are fantastic, they have been
so supportive and you can tell they genuinely care about the residents and families. Mum is encouraged every day to participate in everything that's happening. I can rest assured knowing, Mum is happy, safe and well cared for in a warm and happy home.

My dad has been a resident since March 2023. This was a very difficult decision to make, but the staff here have been very helpful and supportive in this move. We have had Dad's room decorated with the help of a staff member - doing a fantastic job of decorating and putting some shelves up for us.
The
staff are very helpful with everyday concerns and tracking missing items.
Dad seems to have settled well, which gives me peace of mind to know he is safe.

My mother has happily lived at Brackenfield Hall for nearly two years. The carers became her second family, and she was very happy and well cared for.
Sadly, she has just passed away, but the care and support that was given to both her and her immediate family was fantastic.
All went the extra mile,
and the painful journey we were taking at the end was a lot less scary knowing they were there and listening.
We are forever grateful to them for allowing my Mum to end her living journey in her home with her familiar surroundings and her family around her.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.943)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.943) out of 10 for Brackenfield Hall 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 43 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 43 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 4.943 for Brackenfield Hall is calculated as follows: ( (483 Excellents x 5) + (29 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 512 Ratings = 4.943

  • 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 Brackenfield Hall is based on 43 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 43 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.
