Review from Duncan P (Son of Resident) published on 2 November 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Further to my mother being transferred to Seven Arches when she needed nursing care due to her vascular dementia condition, she now seems to be more settled and happier, and this is due to the care and attention that she is receiving from the hard-working staff who are doing an excellent job of giving
residents a quality of life.
I would not hesitate to recommend this nursing home to others.

Review from Theresa R (Daughter of Resident) published on 2 November 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Seven Arches care home has always welcomed visits from relatives (Covid restrictions allowing). This is very reassuring. For instance, when there have been any concerns regarding my mother's health, I have been contacted immediately, and for instances, where I may have had any concern about my mother,
I have been able to discuss this immediately with a member of staff. There is a spirit of openness within the home, which is very reassuring.
I have been impressed with the way the home has applied the Covid restrictions whilst maintaining contact with us relatives, ensuring even in the worst times, we were able to speak to my mother on the telephone. Staff went to great efforts to maintain contact between relatives and users.
There seems to be a personal interest by staff in every aspect of my mothers care needs.

Thank you for your review. We are very happy and delighted that you feel confident in our care and treatment of your mum.
Take care from Sevenarches Team.

The staff of all grades were very caring, even though we were only there a week.
My wife was treated with dignity and professionalism throughout. Visiting by myself and the family was very good, as we came and went virtually as we wished.
Very good.
Reply from Neeta Varghese, Manager at Seven Arches

Thank you for your review. We are glad that you and your family find the care home very caring.


Take care,

My family and I found the home very welcoming. The staff were anxious to please and make the patient as comfortable as possible. They also kept the family informed, and if there was the slightest concern, medical help was consulted.

Considering my mum's mental and physical health when she first became a resident at Seven Arches, two years later she is a different person. This is all down to the fantastic care and support that has been provided by the staff at Seven Arches. There is a truly friendly and homely atmosphere here, I
am very lucky to have found such a special place to look after my mum. My heartfelt thanks are extended to everyone at Seven Arches, it is a wonderful place!

My mum has been living at Seven Arches for nearly three years. In that time she has been treated with kindness, respect and a great deal of care. I would not hesitate to recommend this care home. I feel completely at ease with all the kind, caring staff. Mum's clothes are washed and ironed and folded
away neatly every day, all staff are an assist to the home. One member of staff who arranges entertainment and outings is a ray of sunshine.

This was my first visit to my sister-in-law and I found the staff to be very attentive and friendly to the residents. It was very clean and tidy and no resident was left on their own. I would highly recommend this home to anyone.

This is a very well run home with a very strong team of caring staff.
My mother has been a resident for over three years now.
Management is currently in the process of being changed, the temporary manager has not been in charge for long but is impressing.

Whilst conscious that the home has had some issues in recent months, standard of care, dignity with which they treat their residents has been consistently high. Home is always spotlessly clean and staff care about the residents and their environment. I have no hesitation to recommend Seven Arches. My
mum has been a resident here for 3 1/2 years.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My friend moved into Seven Arches Nursing Home a year ago.
She has settled in very nicely and seems to be well-liked by all the staff. The staff there are very friendly and seem to enjoy what they do.
The room she has is very comfortable and has just been re-decorated.
There are plenty of activities
and entertainment going on. She has been taken out to the local carvery and for pie and mash, which she thoroughly enjoyed.
We now have peace of mind, knowing that she is well looked after and gets three good meals a day.
I have no hesitation in recommending Seven Arches.

Overall satisfied with the home. Any problems with my sister's care are resolved with the help of staff and management. Management are really listening to what I am saying.


Good to have more trained staff in attendance.

Review from David P (Son-in-law of Resident) published on 18 September 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have been very impressed over a 5-year association with Seven Arches with the homely atmosphere and the kindness of the staff and the respect they always show to the residents and relatives. Residents enjoy the benefit of lovely gardens and can involve themselves in a range of activities. The size
of the home is conducive to family members getting to know one another which makes an important contribution to the overall "home from home" feeling that pervades.


My one criticism relates to an over-reliance on a single lift for residents on the upper floor. There needs to be a backup contingency (in the form of a stair lift) for occasions when the lift is out of service (which it was for an extended period of many weeks earlier this year).

I am extremely pleased with the care that my father has received. He is always treated with dignity and compassion. Staff are happy and they try hard to brighten up his day. The standard of nursing care is excellent. I would thoroughly recommend the home to anyone in need of loving care and support.
The meals are very tasty too! Activities are well planned and a lot of extra time and effort goes into the organisation. Well done!

My brother has been living here sometime. We have found it to be warm, welcoming, friendly the food is excellent, excellent care.
Way and above what is required. My husband has been in hospital making it impossible for us to visit. Members of staff have used their own phones to phone me so my brother
has been able to talk to me which has been very important to him. I can't thank them enough.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.835)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.835) out of 10 for Seven Arches is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.835 for Seven Arches is calculated as follows: ( (108 Excellents x 5) + (17 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 127 Ratings = 4.835
  2. 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 Seven Arches is based on 11 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 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
    2. 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 30 registered maximum number of service users is 6, which has been reached with 11 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
