After a bad fall my Mum left hospital on a Discharge-to-Assess basis. We had no input to where she might be placed so I feel we were very lucky that Arden Park was home to Mum for 10 weeks. I struggled with the idea that Mum was in a specialist dementia care home as most of the residents were clearly
much further down their dementia journey. But I needn't have worried as the care team were absolutely brilliant. Everyone was hardworking, compassionate and caring, not just in dealing with my Mum but also in providing reassurance to our family. There is a lovely atmosphere in the home and it feels calm and welcoming. The staff are attentive and formed a lovely relationship with my Mum. There was often laughter between the carers and Mum which really helped her to settle.
I also must mention the food provided, what a great chef they have. Lovely meals and frequent tea and cake/biscuits throughout the day. Thank you to everyone at Arden Park for all you support and kindness.

On my first visit, I was very emotional but realised it was because a lot of the residents were visibly very poorly, time has shown how the staff are kind, caring and hard-working. I would like to thank all the staff who have looked after my sister so nicely, I also think the food and kitchen facilities
are excellent.

I would like to see more done in the garden i.e. open it up to make it more accessible with some nice flower beds and seating etc. in different areas as I do think it is important for the residents to be able to walk outside into the fresh air.

Thank you for your review. Hopefully the weather starts to pick up so we can start getting the residents outside

My mother came to Arden Park Care Home via hospital, initially for a six-week assessment period.
I had resigned myself to having to struggle with her to remain in Arden Park as she is a fiercely independent lady who had continually said she wanted to go back to her own home.
My brother and I were
absolutely astounded when, at the end of the six weeks, she decided she didn’t want to leave Arden Park.
I can put my hand on my heart and say I cannot fault the staff for the care and attention they give my mother and whilst visiting her I always see the “girls” chatting to all the other residents, simple conversation goes a long way!
The food at mealtimes smells amazing and the menu is varied.
The manager is lovely, there’s always a smile on her face and nothing is ever any trouble.
Wonderful home that may not suit everyone but nor do all hotels, we are all different but this home suits my mother.

Reply from Nicola Hambridge, Care Home Manager at Arden Park

Thank you very much for your kind words regarding your mother's care at the home. She is a pleasure to care for and I am so pleased to hear she is enjoying being at the home. I am very proud of my team of hardworking, dedicated staff and I am pleased that you have noticed their hard work on your visits.

When my mum first came to this home in 2022 I found it welcoming and plenty of staff there to help. The rooms are lovely with plenty of light, they seemed to have activities for them to participate in if they wished to do so and if not it was fine. I have however found in the past six months or so seen
it go downhill, hardly any staff about no activities whatsoever are in place, and staff don’t seem to listen to the residents about what they need or want. I have noticed a lot of the residents including my mum go downhill fast as there is nothing for them to do, they stick on the radio and telly even if they want it on or not and let them amuse themselves, it’s so sad to see as this was a lovely home and we were very happy. I hate seeing my mum like this and other residents. I do understand it’s a very hard job and a thankless job and they are all underpaid and overworked but this is still no excuse for the leaves of care and kindness.

We were sorry to hear of your recent experience in relation to activities at Arden Park. Unfortunately, our activities member of staff has been away from work for some time. While we have made an effort to cover these hours, this has not always been possible. We hope, however, you will witness a return to your previous experience regarding a full provision of activities in the near future.

Arden Park always has a very calm, family, friendly atmosphere. My mother has been warmly welcomed and enabled to settle into her new home very quickly. The staff are very courteous, consistently kind and very caring. They got to know my mum very quickly. Her holistic needs are verin met at a high standard.
The staff are able to answer any of my questions due to their in-depth knowledge of my mother.

Reply from Deborah Hambridge, Care Home Manager at Arden Park

Thank you very much for the comments that you have made on the home. I am very pleased that your mother has settled well into the home and is making herself some new friends in the home. I have seen that your mother is enjoying spending time in the communal lounge and interacting with everyone, staff included. Staff have informed me that your mother is a joy to care for and is always very grateful for the care provided to her.

I visited Arden Park today and was very impressed with the staff in regard to safeguarding the residents from covid however I am disabled and find it hard to stand up for very long and in Arden Park, there is no room for a chair to sit down (awaiting the covid test result). I think the porch needs to
be extended so people with a problem standing could sit down. That is the only moan. You can be very pleased with the people who work there.

My mother entered the home following hospital treatment. She was made to feel very welcome in the home and was treated with a great deal of kindness which was so important at a very anxious time for her. I also felt very confident form the start that she was in good and caring hands. My mother has now
been in the home for 17 months and has been looked after really well during that time.

My mum was in Arden Park for a number of years. She was always treated with respect and cared for by care staff and management who made her as happy as they could. Any health problems were dealt with without delay and I was always contacted if there were any issues. Her final days were made as good
as was possible with loving care and consideration.
I was always made welcome at any time and all staff were very kind and helpful to me. I couldn't have managed without them.

Current Review Score: 8.9 (8.860)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.9 (8.860) out of 10 for Arden Park is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.2 out of 5 from 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 7 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 4.160 for Arden Park is calculated as follows: ( (49 Excellents x 5) + (35 Goods x 4) + (15 Satisfactorys x 3) + (4 Poors x 2) + (3 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 106 Ratings = 4.16

  • 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 4.7 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Arden Park is based on 7 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 = 3.7

    • 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 31 registered maximum number of service users is 6.2, which has been reached with 7 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.
