Mum has been a resident at Glen Arun for over 2 years. There were minor issues with the transition to the care home, however any gaps in the required processes have now been addressed by the change in management. Although quite weak and confused when she arrived at the care home, the staff have always
ensured that her best interests and personal requirements have been considered, and she is now happy in a regular daily routine. Communication with the management is clear so as a family we are always aware of what is planned and any medical concerns that they have, which gives us great peace of mind. Food is of a good standard, and residents are encouraged to take part in a range of activities. All staff are friendly and very welcoming when we visit. So, our overall experience is of an excellent care home which always has the residents' interests at its heart, and which is open and transparent in all its dealings with their relatives.
Reply from Jade Tauli, Deputy manager at Glen Arun Nursing HomeThank you so much for taking the time to share such thoughtful and positive feedback about mum's experience at Glen Arun.
We are delighted to hear that she has settled well and is happy in her daily routine. Your kind words about our staff, communication, food, and activities mean a great deal to us. We also appreciate your understanding during the earlier transition period and are pleased that the improvements made have had a positive impact. Providing care that is centred on each resident's best interests, while maintaining open and transparent communication with families, is very important to us. It is truly rewarding to know that this gives you peace of mind.
Thank you again, Joseph for your trust and support. We look forward to continuing to care for her and to working closely with your family.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We knew the care given by all the staff at Glen Arun was wonderful, as they look after my mother. Therefore, when my aunt and uncle (both in their 90s) needed to move out of their home into somewhere where they could received the care and support for both their personal and medical needs, Glen Arun
was the logical choice. They have now been there about 18 months and have really settled in well. They both enjoy the companionship of others in the Day Room and participating in the events with the staff. Even though we visit them several times a week, it's lovely to see them pop up in the Facebook posts enjoying themselves. On occasions when one or other is unwell and stays in bed, we know that there are staff checking on them regularly to make sure their needs are met. We cannot fault anything about the Care Home or the staff - they are all brilliant.
Reply from Jade Tauli, Deputy manager at Glen Arun Nursing HomeThank you so much for taking the time to share such wonderful feedback. Your kind words truly mean a great deal to all of us at Glen Arun, and we take them with immense pride. It is incredibly rewarding to hear how well your family(Aunt &Uncle) settled in and how much they enjoy the companionship, activities, and day-to-day life within the home. Knowing that you feel reassured about the care and support they receive-especially during times when they are unwell-means everything to our team.

When visiting the staff are courteous and friendly. In the lounge staff are very patient with residents and attentive. Staff encourage residents to eat drink and join in with activities. Rooms are clean and clothes are hung up or put away properly. The menu shows that residents get wholesome familiar
food such as fish and chips, shepherds pie, roast dinner, syrup sponge and fruit crumble. A very homely home.

My father spent 6 months in Glen Arun and the care and kindness he received was amazing.
During the last few weeks we were updated on his health frequently in the most caring and compassionate way.
On the days leading up to Dad's passing both he and our family were treated with dignity and kindness.
We
spent a lot of time with Dad during his stay and even at the end we could be there as long as we wanted with constant visits from nurses, carers, and the Manager.
I cannot fault this care home and everyone that works there
Reply from Neema Clinton, Manager at Glen Arun Nursing HomeThank you for your loving and kind words , we are also very happy that dad had his final moments with his loved ones around. Keep in touch and feel free to visit us with mum.

My mum was admitted to Glen Arun after a stay in hospital and the home environment was no longer suited to her care requirements. During her time at the care home she was cared for with dignity, respect & compassion. As a family we were constantly updated with any changes to mums care.
The fact that
all the staff are employed by the home and are not agency staff means there is a sense of pride & community among them. It also ensures a continuity of familiar faces for the residents, which helps to build a level of trust & friendship.
I only hope when my time comes, I am fortunate enough to receive the same level of care. Thank you everyone at Glen Arun.
Reply from Neema Clinton, Manager at Glen Arun Nursing HomeThank you for your kind words . Please feel free to visit us with dad on next week for the open day events starts from 17th to 20th . Thank you Neema

From the moment my mum arrived at Glen Arun Nursing Home, I felt a sense of relief and calm. We were all welcomed so warmly and each and every member of staff who we came into contact with gave us the feeling that my mum would be not only well looked after but genuinely cared for. She was only, sadly
at Glen Arun for a few days of end-of-life care before she passed away. During those few days though she was kept so comfortable, warm and safe and that meant so much to me after all the confusion and anonymity of the hospital environment. Thank you to Glen Arun for making my mum's last days so peaceful.

I visited my friend on 21st June, he had been transferred from East Surrey hospital to have palliative care at the home. I couldn't have been more impressed with the comfortable room that he had been given, or the caring, cheerful staff attending to him. A difficult time, but I'm confident that Alan
couldn't be in a better place.

I cannot thank you enough for the excellent care you gave my husband, nothing was too much trouble. His privacy was respected. The kind staff were always positive, caring and encouraging. They were also chatty and fun when needed to be. The food was good with excellent choices and the chef was always
happy to make spicy side dishes as requested. My husband enjoyed hearing about the staff's interests and families. I appreciated all the information given to both myself and my sons regarding my husband's care.

Glen Arun Nursing Home is very caring. All the staff are exceptional in every way. Always time to care and chat with us as a friend of a resident. Always offers a cup of tea or coffee and a biscuit and make sure we have chairs to sit on. The home manager is one in a million - caring and always ready

After a challenging start because of her dementia, the staff helped my mother settle in. They also tried to involve her in the various activities available but she chose not to. I was very satisfied with the way my mother was looked after during her year-long stay at Glen Arun Nursing Home. I found
the staff to be attentive and caring and I was kept informed and made welcome on my visits. Throughout her stay, she was treated well which I found reassuring, especially in her final weeks. Thanks to all of the staff.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.601)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.601) out of 10 for Glen Arun Nursing Home 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 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 12 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 4.801 for Glen Arun Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (116 Excellents x 5) + (22 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 141 Ratings = 4.801
  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 4.8 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Glen Arun Nursing Home is based on 12 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 3.8
    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 57 registered maximum number of service users is 11.4, which has been reached with 12 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.
