As care homes go this is a good one but there is still plenty of room for improvement, in hospitality and laundry as well as making the care more individual. We really miss the cafe as it was great for getting the residents out of the room for a change of scene and the coffee was lovely!

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

My mum has now been resident in 3 Bridges for 9 months. When she was first admitted straight from the hospital she was very poorly. As it is a nursing home the staff were wonderful and it meant she didn't need to go back into the hospital. The first few months were difficult but through the care and
attention from the staff, my mum has really rallied and is very settled and has good fun with the staff. She really thinks of the place as home now and is not stressed and most of our visits are very enjoyable and again made better by the friendliness of the staff. If I had one issue it would be sometimes short of staff but this is a recognised UK-wide problem and the staff at 3 bridges in my opinion go above and beyond.

My dad is currently a resident at 3 Bridges Care Home. My late mum was also a resident. I have nothing but praise for the level of care and kindness. It’s an incredibly professionally run care home and residents enjoy a very high standard of personal care. Any medical concerns are promptly dealt with.
Nothing is too much trouble for the staff. Communication with relatives is always prompt about any concerns. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming and there are lots of very well-organised seasonal events throughout the year.

My mother had exceptional care while a resident and the care and support given to myself and siblings over the three days we sat with our mother as she faded away was amazing. Cannot thank them enough

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.770)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.770) out of 10 for 3 Bridges 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 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.770 for 3 Bridges Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (217 Excellents x 5) + (44 Goods x 4) + (9 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 270 Ratings = 4.77

  • 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 3 Bridges Care Home is based on 23 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 72 registered maximum number of service users is 14.4, which has been reached with 23 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.
