The change in my dad since being here is amazing. He is the happiest he has been in years, he's eating properly, and is joining in socially with everything offered to him (usually he shies away). The staff are beautiful, and are so involved with all residents. I couldn't ask for anything more than what
my dad receives here. I'm happy because he's happy. Thank you.

Review from T L (Daughter of Resident) published on 15 August 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
July 2024 and my dad has been in hospital since November 2023 (9 months!) with two breaks in his back and two in his hip following an unwitnessed fall in Rowan Garth - he was there less than a month and was admitted to hospital twice! Social Services initiated a safeguarding inquiry and Rowan Garth
were found to be negligent in their care of my father from a falls perspective but also his medication was changed by the hospital and they did not read the instructions properly and gave him two lots of medication that could have caused him serious harm. The way we have been treated by Rowan Garth as a family is appalling - you would think that it was us who were at fault.
Further, £50 of my dad's money has never been returned to us despite it being deposited with the Manager. Clothes were stolen - not the supermarket ones... no, branded names and football tops etc. £270 glasses disappeared. The General Manager ignored all letters.
Appalling place.
Reply from Julie Veritiero, Operations Manager at Rowan Garth Care VillageDear T L, we sincerely apologise for the distress you and your family experienced regarding your father's care at Rowan Garth. The issues you raised are concerning, and we deeply regret that we fell short of the standards expected. Since your review, our new General Manager has reached out to resolve the matters you brought up, and we appreciate your engagement during this process. He and the team have been working diligently to ensure lessons have been learned and improvements are in place to prevent similar incidents. While we know an apology cannot undo the difficulties, we are committed to making things right. If there's anything more we can do, please reach out to him directly. Thank you for your feedback, which has been crucial in driving positive change at Rowan Garth. We wish your father all the best in his recovery. Warm regards...

I have been a resident at Beach House since December 2023 and have found the management and staff have treated me with dignity and kindness to make me welcome and feel at home.
The management put on musical shows daily, games, like bingo etc., and also have baking classes for the residents and in the
spring and summer, there will be days out for residents wishing to take part.

Absolutely Bloom Care Home is a caring, loving and friendly place. I recommend this place for anyone that needs personal care, rehabilitation and general well-being. I personally like the way they attend to their clients with love and kindness. It's also a good place for rehabilitation and I will say
I love the counseling they provide.

Since my mum became a resident of this care home I have to say she is happy and content to be among the other residents and excellent staff at the care home. The last I visited here my mum was beaming with joy as there was a singer performing songs most she recalled from her youth. She was up dancing
and singing among the staff also. The care my mum gets is 10/10. The staff are 10/10. In fact, each time I go I bring in biscuits for the staff simply because they are lovely people and a credit to your care home. Can't praise them enough 10/10 thank you.

Current Review Score: 8.8 (8.758)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.8 (8.758) out of 10 for Rowan Garth Care Village is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.4 out of 5 from 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.3 out of 5 from 14 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 4.441 for Rowan Garth Care Village is calculated as follows: ( (109 Excellents x 5) + (53 Goods x 4) + (10 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (6 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 179 Ratings = 4.441
  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 4.317 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Rowan Garth Care Village is based on 14 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 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 3.85
    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 150 registered maximum number of service users is 30. 14 Positive Reviews ÷ 30 = 0.467
  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.

Paddy Murphy

Job Title: Registered Manager Joined: 2025

I’m Patrick, the Home Manager at Rowan Garth and a Registered Nurse with a career in healthcare spanning from the age of 18. I began as a Healthcare Assistant at Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital before completing my nurse training at Liverpool John Moores University.


After qualifying, I gained experience across post-operative care, palliative care, Accident & Emergency, and elderly care. My passion for supporting older people led me into the private care sector in the North West, where I progressed from Clinical Lead Nurse to Registered Home Manager.


Over the past five years, I’ve had the privilege of leading a large, complex nursing home delivering dementia nursing, general nursing, an NHS step-down unit, and dementia residential care. During this time, the service achieved a “Good” rating in all key areas with the CQC and “Excellent” with the local authority.


I’m now proud to be supporting Rowan Garth, with a clear focus on delivering high-quality, person-centred care and achieving the same strong outcomes.


I look forward to welcoming you to Rowan Garth.
