We had a very pleasant year with Atfield House Care Home whilst my friend lived in the Memory Lane wing. The staff are professional, caring and approachable for conversation at all times. I appreciated the regular relatives meetings which were hosted quarterly, to give updates on conditions and activities
in the home, and allow relatives to raise questions and concerns.
Well done and thank you!

My father has been at Barchester Atfield House Care Home for the past four months, I live in the United States. Sadly, he passed this past week, though I am thankful that I was able to spend his final days with him. The nurses, carers and reception have been absolutely magnificent. They kept me updated
throughout his time there, including using video chat. Towards the end, they made sure he was comfortable and not in any pain. I am very grateful to everyone at Atfield for the care and compassion they showed him, while ensuring we as a family were kept informed.

We found the Atfield House facility atmosphere and ambiance calm and efficient with a very high level of care for the service user and visiting family members.


The positive approach of the care staff at Atfield House enabled Mother to progress from being bed bound, on discharge from hospital, to

walking with a frame during her few weeks' stay.


We had a very positive experience and would be very happy to use Atfield House again.

The family's experience with Barchester Atfield House Care Home has been a positive one. My mum has been a resident in the Memory Care Unit for almost 5 years. The nursing and care staff are excellent and I trust them completely with my mum in their care. Working day in and day out with residents living
with dementia takes an enormous amount of patience and energy. The staff do an excellent job in the face of a very challenging environment. I'm grateful to them all and wouldn't hesitate in recommending them to families requiring specialist care.

Our aunt entered Atfield House in November 2022, bedridden with very little ability to do anything. Through the care and attention she received whilst there, she has left there today a very different person t the one that entered. She is now able to be out of bed all day and manoeuvre herself in a wheelchair
around to enable to take part in activities. She can also now stand and get herself to the toilet and in and out of the wheelchair. She has left Atfield House to be with her husband in another care home. As a family, we are very grateful to Atfield House staff for their care and the attention she received whilst in their care.

The resident's son, partner and our two teenage grandchildren (and pet dog) visited this afternoon and we were all looked after like royalty. There were other events happening, which unfortunately we missed, but we were still welcomed and given our own room with coffee, tea and a selection of cakes.
Best of all, I had mentioned that two of the family only ate gluten-free food and the home provided a selection of gluten-free cakes for us, as well as regular cakes. Fantastic. I would also like to emphasise how very welcoming and keen to look after you everyone at the home is. Also how lovely the place looks. A really sweet Valentine's vibe indoors and colourful flowers and plants outside and indoors. It's a lovely place to visit and we all had a great time together. Thank you.

During my mothers 11 months stay at Atfield House she was extremely well cared for. The staff very quickly learned her likes and dislikes and what was very important to her and the family was always kept informed about her health and welfare. Her personal care was carried out in a very professional,
respectful and gentle way and hearing my mother laughing and chatting with the carers was reassuring. When she managed to join in the activities she really enjoyed herself. Her family and friends were always made to feel welcome when we visited and everyone at Atfield contributed to her well-being. When she started to slip away, she received end-of-life care which led to her peaceful end. The management and admin staff are very approachable and always willing to listen and address any problems. The regular meetings with relatives proved to be very useful in answering any questions and giving us details of forthcoming events and works within the home.

Reply from Subin Sebastian, Manager at Barchester Atfield House Care Home

Thank you for your kind words and recognition of the team at Atfield. We are really sorry for your loss and we hope that we made your mother's stay at Atfield enjoyable. Your comments will be passed on to the team.

My husband was looked after very well in Atfield House where he spent the last eight months of his life. The decision to take him to a nursing home was the most difficult decision I had ever had to make. It means a lot to me to know he was in safe hands. The home is run professionally with a high standard
of care and excellent food. The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming. I would have no hesitation in recommending this home.

I'm hugely grateful to the Atfield House Care Home team. They made mum's last days very comfortable and she was in clean clothes every time I visited she would have appreciated that. Her room was peaceful and calm. The staff were practical and upfront in describing mums condition. I really appreciated
that approach so I could be well prepared for the final outcome. One tiny niggle- There was mould on one sippy cup, mum had not eaten or drunk anything so I guess it was just sat there for a while.

Mother has been at Atfield House Care Home for over five years. She has Dementia but seems very happy. She is well cared for. The food is excellent and plentiful. The staff are welcoming and take great care of all my mother's needs. The home is well-run and holds regular meetings with relatives. It
is expensive, but in my opinion, is worth it for peace of mind knowing that my mother is well cared for.

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.
