Our aunt was in the care home seven months. She was well looked after. She was always clean. Food was excellent and her room always clean. Any needs or problems were immediately addressed and resolved. Staff are very caring and professional.

I arrived to visit my friend, we had a coffee and a cake. Wonderfully inviting, clean and friendly. Superbly decorated and comfortable. Care team were absolutely lovely. Interested in my friend who said she felt valued like a princess. Definitely treats residents as individuals, I'm impressed greatly
by the care here. Celebrating life is the motto here. In practice also.

All staff were very welcoming, nothing was too much trouble. Demonstrated to me, dignity and respect for the elderly nursing care is excellent.
My husband was very anxious at being in a care home for the first time, would meet his needs. They always listened and took on board his worries and panic
sometimes.
They showed concern for me as his carer. Lovely surroundings like a hotel.

Having used the care home for respite care in 2023, it was an easy decision to choose this home again when our mother needed more urgent permanent, 24-hour care. The home "pulled out all the stops" and found her a room the same day of our request.

I met with the team at Barchester Atfield House Care Home to discuss my father's complex needs and was instantly met with understanding, empathy and support. I was thoroughly impressed with the room, facilities and gardens and left feeling comforted that all of my father's needs would be met.
Upon
commencing my father's four weeks respite stay, the team made him feel at ease and were always willing to provide something different or change times of meals to suit him. I want to personally thank the deputy manager who has provided sound advice and support for his ongoing medical needs and we only hope he can make a full recovery.

Barchester Atfield House Care Home has been a good experience for my 88-year-old mother. They have been very caring following her stoke and the setting has enabled her to have a better experience in a caring environment. The activities have kept her mentally stimulated and the staff have been very caring.

Barchester Atfield House Care Home is a well-run care home, clean and tidy, with care staff who do a good job, sometimes in trying circumstances.
The activities staff provide things for the residents to get involved in but the more servere dementia patients don't generally join in which I suppose is
understandable.
Whilst security is generally good, some thought to making exit doors more secure ought to be considered
Finally, I would add that this is a care home I would recommend to friends and family.

Atfield House Care Home,
That's what stays in my mind.
Finding a suitable shelter, for an
Individual who life left behind.
Ever patient, kind and supportive,
Like a wrap-around shawl and a hug.
Dementia care that is calm and unfolding.
Happy people walk, talk in the gardens,
Ours to help if
we can.
Up with the lark or night owl.
Say yes to a stay at this care home,
Every day, every year: no regrets.

In 2023 I had three short stays at Barchester Atfield House Care Home, Isleworth, so when it became necessary for me to have more care, I knew exactly where I'd go! It is a very welcoming, cheerful home with modern colours and art. Rooms are comfortable, there is a variety of activities, morning and
afternoon, with professional guests at times. There are regular doctor and physio visits, hairdresser. I feel very safe here, so if you were looking for care of a loved one, you would have no worries at all to place them here. Staff always like to make sure you are happy. They are cheerful and run a very happy care home.

I was delighted to see my friend in such a lovely care home - the staff were very helpful and the cakes and tea were a yummy surprise. The home is spotlessly clean and odour-free. My friend is very happy being in this home.

My mother, who is living with dementia, has been at Barchester Atfield House Care Home for just over a year after a fall that put her in hospital. She is receiving a good level of care. We had initially selected Atfield because of the atmosphere, that seemed to be less institutional than other homes
we had visited. What is a key factor now is that the management and teams seek feedback and respond to improve the service. We have seen the staff develop (at least one of the members of staff has won an external award), there is little churn of staff which is a good indicator.
There has been a significant development in the activities program. There were many events around Christmas that engaged the families, these included panto, carols, tea, trip to the local church for a nativity service. There has been similar engagement for Mother's Day and Easter. There is a varied and busy weekly program of activities that includes exercise, visits from schools and pet farms, trips to garden centres and parks.

The staff are very caring and keep me well informed of my mum's progress.
Laundry is done very promptly and the home is clean.
The food is mostly good, though my mother has difficulties with eating. The staff are very attentive to me too, e.g. offering me tea and biscuits as well when I visit.
The
home is safe and welcoming.

Mum stayed at Atfiled House, Isleworth at the beginning of March 2024 while my husband and I went on holiday. It was the first time we'd left her since she came to live with us 4 years ago. We were quite apprehensive, but we needn't have been. Mum really enjoyed herself and was well looked after. I
will definitely use Atfield House again when we go on holiday. Thank you to all the staff!

I have been very impressed and grateful for the excellent, caring and professional care shown to my close friend over the last few weeks as her dementia has progressed. She has presented with challenging behaviour on many occasions. This has been dealt with empathy, love and thoughtfulness until she
complied. My friend is able to be the person she is now but ensuring safety for herself and others which is something I value greatly and appreciate. The staff keep me fully updated at all times. The staff are excellent.

My father had a couple of falls at home and his mobility was poor. The local hospital said he was at risk of falls so should go to rest in a respite home. I searched and found Barchester Atfield House Care Home and I can honestly say the care my father received was of the highest standard. The staff
and facilities at Atfield are amazing. Thank you to everyone who looked after my father.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.753)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.753) out of 10 for Barchester Atfield House Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 66 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 66 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 4.753 for Barchester Atfield House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (595 Excellents x 5) + (167 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 774 Ratings = 4.753

  • 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 Atfield House Care Home is based on 66 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 68 registered maximum number of service users is 13.6, which has been reached with 66 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.
