Superb care, fantastic staff, excellent management & facility. The staff are extremely well trained and professional. They are very caring and the home has a very welcoming and family feel to it. Since my father moved in seven months ago the staff have always been kind, friendly and approachable. They
treat all residents with dignity and respect. The facility is absolutely lovely and clean, there are no unpleasant smells at all,. They recently opened up a sensory room for the residents which has a relaxing and magical feel to it. My father's room on the ground floor opens up onto the beautiful spacious patio and garden. The corridors have beautiful pictures from the past throughout the home. The meals are varied & nutritious. The onsite Chef makes a point of finding out residents preferences. The building has good light, it is warm & spacious. I have peace of mind that my father is well looked after and taken care, thank you to the Manager and staff at Baugh House.

I visit my dear friend every Friday. I'm warmly welcomed and there are always staff around if needed. The home is well-run, clean and tidy. The residents have a social room where they can sit and they have various entertainers too and they join in with the songs. I get a lovely cup of hot chocolate...
Delicious.

My mother-in-law spent just over six months in Baugh House. During that time, we met so many members of staff who worked tirelessly to make her stay as pleasant as possible. Unfortunately, she was bedridden so was not able to participate in the activities. It was during her final days that the care,
support and friendliness of the staff shone through. They ensured that the family was made welcome and looked after. They all responded quickly to answer questions and help allay any concerns - we cannot thank them enough.

My mother moved into Baugh House in April this year and we have been very pleased with the care she has received.
Mum had her 99th birthday this October and we felt the staff went above and beyond in making this a wonderful day for her. The staff arranged for a cake, balloons and entertainment for
her birthday, this was followed by a small family gathering at the weekend where the staff again supplied savouries, soft drinks and a birthday cake.
It is obvious that the staff genuinely care for her and we are happy and content with her time at Baugh House.

I've been visiting my friend since March 2024. Each time I've had a friendly welcome by staff. My friend is bedridden - on each occasion, she is fresh and clean, no smells and happy in herself. She is quite lucid and relates stories about what happens outside her room window - the names of birds, the
apple tree, the planes going overhead. She says the girls (staff) are good to her. It makes me happy to visit, knowing shi is ok. Thank you for looking after her.

I have been a regular visitor to my nan's care home since taking over as POA in January 2024, following the passing of my father. I have nothing but positive comments to make. The staff have been welcoming and my nan is clearly well looked after, the staff are very in tune with my nan's needs and always
call upon me if there is an issue. I feel fully involved in her care and able to approach staff if needed. The accommodation is always clean, the food is great and the activities are fantastic. I always look forward to my visits!

My friend was brought to Baugh House due to having several falls at home and no longer had mobility or the ability to care for herself. She had prolonged spells in the hospital too. She settled quite quickly and in general was content. Due to dementia, she could be difficult and abusive but the staff
treated her with care and respect. Thank you to the staff who cared for her well when circumstances were sometimes difficult.

Reply from Seye Fadipe, Home Manager at Baugh House

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience of our home. Sometimes the dementia journey our friends and loved ones take can be difficult but it is always important to see the person behind the illness - our team is very experienced in providing patient and respectful care for those living with dementia.

My mum is always clean and there are lots of activities going on. She doesn’t always join in but is happy watching and taking in the jolly atmosphere.
All the staff are very kind and accommodating.
My mum has her own en-suite room.
She is safe and well cared for.
I highly recommend Baugh House
in Sidcup if you are faced with this difficult transition.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.592)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.592) out of 10 for Baugh House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 30 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 29 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 4.592 for Baugh House is calculated as follows: ( (239 Excellents x 5) + (97 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) + (4 Poors x 2) + (3 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 355 Ratings = 4.592

  • 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 Baugh House is based on 29 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 29 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.
