The care home is always clean and tidy. Staff are always about, friendly and helpful. They are always trying to put the residents' well-being as their number one priority. There are a lot of activities that the residents are encouraged to take part in, to make their time and experience in the home an
enjoyable one.

We were invited to join the Avery blooming open evening. The event was well organised, and staff were on hand to help the residents and families.
The event was lovely, with cheese and wine for the residents and guests.

My dad has been a resident in residential care at Seagrave for almost 12 months. It is a warm, caring, well-run home - with a real emphasis on helping residents to get the most out of life while looking after their individual care needs. I feel Dad is well looked after by the lovely staff, but more
than that, the effort staff make daily to make residents feel included and offer all kinds of activities just makes me feel like he still has a purpose, feels valued and is seen as an individual. I would highly recommend Seagrave.

The staff and manager could not have been more helpful and understanding in helping my mother to make the difficult transition from her own home into care. The home environment is very welcoming, and Mum has settled well into her new life, making new friends very quickly.

My husband came for respite in March; however, it was decided he should stay for full-time care due to a few safeguarding issues. The care home is an extremely homely and friendly place. Very loving, patient and caring staff. He is always occupied with the many varied activities and trips organised
by the wonderful lifestyle girls. Everyone has gone above and beyond to make my hubby and me happy and settled. Keep up the brilliant work, Seagrave team.

Review from Linda C (Daughter of Resident) published on 29 May 2023 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum has been here since January after having a stroke in November and losing the ability to live on her own. It has taken her a long time to settle in, and it has been difficult for her, the family and the staff, as she has had repeated infections and TIA's along the way. I couldn't recommend Seagrave
highly enough. Mum is a very difficult person to handle since her stroke, and the staff have treated her with the utmost respect. There is always something going on at Seagrave, and although she doesn't join in much, they try their hardest. Staff keep in touch with me when necessary, and it is a lovely place to be from the moment you walk in the door.

My mum came to Seagrave House to be assessed, and last week, we received the good news that she is to be a permanent resident. She absolutely loves it. The staff are fantastic and genuinely care. The food is lovely. There is daily entertainment, which she takes part in, and has made friends. Overall,
Mum couldn't be happier - she is living her best life, which makes us happy as a family and gives us great peace of mind. Thank you all for everything.

My mum moved into Seagrave House in February 2023 following my father's passing. It is great knowing she is safe, warm, happy and well looked after. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff, from management to the cleaner. My mum is happy, and the family are making memories. I can't thank the staff

My wife has been in care at Seagrave House for six months now. I have nothing but admiration for the staff; they go that one step beyond to make sure the residents are well looked after. I cannot fault anyone of the staff; they are a credit to their profession. I include everyone in my praises, the
carers, kitchen staff, cleaners and laundry staff; they are all a credit to your company. I think the catering is excellent. Well done to all.

This was the first time we had visited from the moment you walk in there is a feeling of warmth, homeliness and general well-being. The premises is like a quality all-inclusive holiday resort. The staff from cleaners through to manager are genuinely caring and loving. It is a place I could not recommend
highly enough. The person we visited is so happy living there. If either my wife or I ever need care then Seagrave House is the one for us.

Review from B T (Nephew of Resident) published on 5 January 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My aunt is now in her second month as a resident at Seagrave House.
She suffers from Alzheimer's, and struggles to properly care for herself but still has the desire to feel independent. It was a big family decision to move her into a Residential Care Home but have to say that she could not be in
a better place now.
She has fitted in quickly and enjoys mixing with both staff and residents. Staff work very hard attending to everyone's needs in a very friendly and caring manner.
My aunt happily feels part of the Seagrave House "family" now.
Her room and the ensuite toilet and shower room are perfect and overall the standard of all facilities in Seagrave House is top quality.
There are good varied meal options and the creative kitchen will try to satisfy everyone's tastes.
There are also plenty of activities to do - something for everyone.
In summary, I would find it hard to criticise anything at Seagrave House. It's better than we could have imagined.

Review from Karen W (Niece of Resident) published on 29 November 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Feeling the weight of such an important decision, my sister and I turned up unannounced at Seagrave House.
The staff member at reception asked the manager if she could have a word with us; the manager was busy but said she would be available in 15 minutes. The receptionist showed us around. I was totally
impressed by everything from the staff, cleanliness, activities, decor, gardens and security.
They were both so lovely. My aunt went into Seagrave House, and I could not believe the change in her. From not wanting to eat, she was now eating three courses. She tells me, "it's more like living in a hotel rather than a care home, and they are all so lovely here, they can't do enough for you".
They clean her room, change her bed, do her laundry, give her medication and keep her safe. When we visit, she no longer gets embarrassed watching us clean her house.
I want to thank all the staff for their kindness and compassion shown to my aunt, and hope this review helps others make a difficult decision easier.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.766)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.766) out of 10 for Seagrave House Care Home - Avery Healthcare 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 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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 4.766 for Seagrave House Care Home - Avery Healthcare is calculated as follows: ( (170 Excellents x 5) + (38 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 214 Ratings = 4.766
  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 Seagrave House Care Home - Avery Healthcare is based on 18 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 84 registered maximum number of service users is 16.8, which has been reached with 18 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.
