Brentwood Arches Care Home - Avery Collection

Being in The Beeches has given my mum a completely new lease of life. I truly believe she has extended her life due to the care and companionship she receives here. I cannot praise the staff enough for her care and compassion shown. She particularly enjoys the 'poker' nights.

First class. Help was always on hand when you needed it but you were allowed to be as independent as you wanted. The food was excellent. Staff were friendly and helpful in all ways. Management was efficient in all respects and whilst our stay was only short we felt welcomed and part of a family.

I looked for some time for a pleasant day centre for my partner who has Lewy Body Dementia. Most of which were grim, however, as soon as we walked through the doors of Signature The Beeches, I knew that this was the one! It is beautiful. The managers, staff, cleanliness, surroundings and most of all the loving care are fantastic. I felt my partner is safe and well cared for each week when I drop him off to give me some time.

Everything was first class.

An absolute par-excellent care home that shows efficiency, professionalism, but, above all, compassion. All staff - management and carers - are warm, compassionate and caring employees that showed my sister-in-law loves and treated her with the utmost dignity. They also showed the same qualities to her family.

Everyone was a life saver to me, offering medical care and support post op. I cant thank you enough.

Very helpful and very satisfactory.

I have been here as a resident now for two years and two months and I love it. The love and dedication of the staff is beyond ordinary praise. The activities could be improved as they were better when I first came than they are now. Too many repeat pop singers. The activities programme so often at fault as regards time and cancellations. My overall feeling for the place is that I could not do better anywhere else. Rooms, food and drink are good and varied. Praise must also be given for decor and dining room staff. Very well run dining rooms.

Mother is very happy at The Beeches and I am pleased that she is well looked after and at a level of care and comfort that I feel confident that she is receiving the best care and comfort available. We had researched other residential care homes within Brentwood/Chelmsford area etc and found The Beeches to be the best, the staff are excellent, the rooms, facilities are of a high standard and I can rest assured in the knowledge that mother is being very well taken care of and that all her needs are being met and she is happy.

We researched the care homes in Chelmsford/Braintree/Brentwood area and found The Beeches to be the best by far. Excellent care, friendly staff, very helpful management, fabulous surroundings but most of all my mother is happy and very content in her new home. Her family feel she is safe and secure and really enjoying the last years of her life as she deserves.

Very good care. Unsure about changing but settled in very well. Have everything I need. Everyone is very caring and considerate. In fact all is very good with nothing to complain about, only complimentary. Very good all round care. Thank you.

I came here from hospital as there was no one at home to look after me. Everything/one was very good and most helpful towards me and helped a great deal with my recovery.

Excellent residential/care home built for purpose. Great atmosphere extremely well run all round helpful, friendly and committed service.

Wonderful care and attention. We were in residence at The Beeches. The staff and management were without fault always sincere, caring and attentive at all times, especially the final three weeks when everyone went the extra mile to ensure that my husband did not suffer in anyway, and my needs were always cared for.

Very happy with stay but feel it is rather expensive, would not be able to do on a regular basis.

My husband and i came to Signature The Beeches for one month. I had been ill and unable to look after him. The care he has received has been good to excellent. I feel better in my health after our stay. If we needed respite care again we would definitely come back again.

My uncle was a resident for a very short period 23rd December 2015 to 19th January 2016 but I can say without any doubt that the care he received was outstanding. His care while in hospital was diabolical. From the moment he arrived at The Beeches he and our family was made welcome by every member of staff that we had contact with. The home is beautifully clean and well maintained and nothing was ever a problem. I can honestly say that the staff in The Woodlands could not have done anymore for my uncle than they did. I could not be there all the time but I was constantly updated on his condition. He died with dignity and they managed to let me know so I could be with him. I would recommend this home to anyone without hesitation.

My father went into The Beeches respite care for two weeks. From start to finish from the receptionist to the admin staff, to the cleaners, to the carers he was treated with the utmost respect and friendliness. The home was spotless and welcoming.

The care my mother received at The Beeches in the last weeks of her life was superb. Every member of staff knew her by name and they all dealt with her appropriately; she was nervous about being there when she first arrived but the staff went out of their way to make her feel comfortable and welcome. In the three weeks she was there she put on weight, various skin problems were sorted and she ended up looking and sounding better than she had for months. Her sudden death from a heart attack shocked and saddened the staff, and they were all very supportive to me and the rest of mum's family. I cannot praise The Beeches highly enough.

Excellent stay - cannot fault it in any way.
