  • Barchester Ashfields Care Home, Norwich
Situated in a semi-rural location in a friendly village in Norfolk, Ashfields is a purpose built home with a high standard of décor, spacious courtyard, pleasant gardens and modern facilities.

This home really does get the best of both worlds; plenty of local amenities yet within easy reach of the historic city of Norwich and the sea side town Great Yarmouth and its beautiful coastal resorts. They're also only 10 minutes from the famous Norfolk Broads.

The home provides first-class 24-hour residential care alongside expert care for people with dementia. They also provide care for those with a physical disability, while a team of highly-qualified and attentive staff really focuses on the individual needs of residents with a tailored care plan for each person.

My father stayed at Ashfields for two weeks respite care. The home is friendly, caring, professional and well run. The staff are very approachable and constantly interact with the residents. The hygiene is very good, food is excellent and the home is safe and very secure. Our sincere thanks for looking
after Father so well.

Absolutely lovely place, my dad could not speak more highly of the staff and food and the care that he received for two weeks here. As his daughter, I could not have asked for more care than he received, but they went over and beyond. We took fish and chips in for him one evening, they had set the private
dining room table with plates, cutlery, condiments, tea, coffee and juice and even sorted bread and butter. There was me expecting to eat them out of the paper! Staff keep up the amazing work, every one of you from the cleaners to management you are amazing and thank you.

A wonderful care home. From my initial enquiry the manager was truly invested in listening to my Mum’s journey. A personalised first day entering the home, Mum and I were welcomed with afternoon tea in the private dining area. Mum has been here a month now. She has settled really quickly with the care
and support from the wonderful staff. Rooms and facilities are lovely and clean, staff are very kind and friendly and regularly update me with any health matters. There are regular activities and entertainment for residents, music playing throughout the care home which gives a lovely relaxed atmosphere for staff, residents and family. Food is plentiful and delicious. I really couldn’t ask for a better home. Thank you for sharing the home with my Mum.

There are not enough thank yous in the world to give to this home. They looked after my grandad with such care and compassion. Not only did they care for him but also us, as a family, and could not have been more supportive during some tough days. The home was always so clean and welcoming and watching
how much the staff cared and gave to the residents was amazing. There was always an activity happening and the home was just always a happy place to go into. The food was amazing also! The home is a credit to the care industry, thank you again.

The staff are always accommodating and helpful when I need help to put my husband into respite. It is a difficult thing for me to do but I feel they are very supportive to my needs too. They have activities for the residents which is so important and I understand that the food is excellent too. I have
already arranged further respite care for the end of September.

Mum was admitted for a short respite stay.
I visited Mum at 11.00 am that weekend, to find her wet in bed, through to the bed sheets, lying flat in bed, barely able to obtain fluids from that position.
I felt like she'd just been left and not cared for.
Even if clients are not compliant early morning,
you would hope they would be checked on again earlier than 11.00 am.
I took Mum out early.

Reply from Feedback Team, The Feedback Team at Barchester Ashfields Care Home

Thank you for your review. We understand that at the time a full investigation was completed and this was sent in full to you on 19/07/23. We were sorry to hear that despite attempts, your mother declined personal care and we understand completely how upsetting this was for you and your family. At our Ashfields Care Home we always want to provide a high standard of care and have many respite stays that go on to stay permanently. We are sorry that you did not feel that we could progress with the care provided and we do hope your mum is happy and settled in her new surroundings.
You are more than welcome to contact us directly if you wish for your concerns to be further addressed with our team on feedback@barchester.com Kind Regards, Barchester’s Feedback Team

Each time we bring Dad to visit Mum, we enjoy it. Ashfields is always clean, smells pleasant and the staff are so friendly and professional. Mum always looks nice and is quite happy here. Dad has been here during meals and says the food looks good. He has even been offered a meal and enjoyed it as well.
Hot drinks are plentiful and provided with a chat and a smile by the host.

Ashfields is a wonderful place for my father to be, the care staff go out of their way to see my dad happy, and nothing is too much trouble. Always clean and tidy, and as for the food which is all homemade, it's amazing and dad loves

My elderly friend has been a resident at Ashfields for almost two years, since becoming unable to care for herself at home due to failing general health and mental capacity. During those two years, she has been cared for by the Ashfields staff with dignity, kindness and love. The care staff work together
to provide a very clean, comfortable, loving and family-oriented home for their residents. There is a varied programme of weekly activities which is also emailed to relatives for information, and meal menus look tempting and nutritious. In addition, I appreciate greatly the fact that the care home administrator always finds time to help with any queries I may have relating to my friend and her personal affairs when I visit. I can only admire, praise and thank all the staff at Ashfields for their patience, care and dedication to my friend and all the residents in their care.

My mother who was 103 at the time had to go to Barchester after being in hospital with an infection. The staff nursed her back to herself and she has had a wonderful time being able to be included in many of the daily activities the home provides. She has been looked after so well she has now reached
her 104th birthday. The home is clean and the food provided in the dining room or in bed is of a very high standard. I would fully recommend Barchester to anyone.

My mum has settled so incredibly well thanks to the staff and environment of this lovely home. The cleanliness of the provision, care and dedication of staff, whether those directly involved in my mum's care or those in the office offering a kind, a listening ear when needed, are all exemplary. Activities

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.614)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.614) out of 10 for Barchester Ashfields Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 31 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 29 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.614 for Barchester Ashfields Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (267 Excellents x 5) + (79 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (9 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 368 Ratings = 4.614

  • b) 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 Barchester Ashfields Care Home is based on 29 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 42 registered maximum number of service users is 8.4, which has been reached with 29 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
