  • Visiting
  • Visiting is strictly by appointment in order to comply with COVID 19 restrictions. The number of visitors is limited at any one time to minimise any risk of infection coming into the Home. The Home encourages afternoon visits in order to minimise the disruption to the residents' morning routines, however, morning visits can be facilitated if necessary. Families and friends visiting people towards the end of their lives have their visits prioritised so that in a persons last days, they are surrounded by loved ones, in calm, comfortable and peaceful surroundings.
    Visitors are encouraged to perform their own LFD test prior to their visit and a negative test and temperature are confirmed on arrival. Where self testing is not possible, staff at the Home will conduct the tests in a designated testing room with a comfortable lounge available whilst awaiting the result. Visiting healthcare professionals are subjected to the same rigorous testing regimen to ensure the safety and well-being of all in the Home.


  • Parking
  • Plenty of on road parking directly outside the home on both Beacon Road and Carlton Road. Visitors are asked to be mindful of the other private residences in the area and not to block driveways, and to be considerate of the junction of Beacon and Carlton Roads which can, at times, be quite busy.

The staff took time to get to know mum. Communication in the house between staff was excellent. Mum was encouraged to join daily activities and she enjoyed her meals, tea breaks and coffees. Towards the end of mum's life the clinical care was excellent and reassuring.

Reply from Debbie Acton, HR Manager at Threeways

Thank you for your kind words - your mother was a pleasure to care for.

Threeways looked after Mum in the last year of her life at 98. The staff were wonderful, caring, compassionate and kind, always going the extra mile to make each day joyful and upbeat. The home is very clean and tidy, it has a lovely garden and communal space for events. She enjoyed all the varied activities,
trips out with the activity coordinators, and lunch club with the other residents. The nursing staff and carers were exceptional, especially as she aged and became frailer. I cannot thank them enough for the love and care with which they surrounded Mum and us as a family, so that we could visit her every day and be with her right up to the end. Thank you.

Mum came to stay here for E.O.L care from hospital. She was only at the home less than a month before she passed, but the care she received in the home was amazing. The staff all seemed so caring and they did all they could for Mum to make the last of her time comfortable. Even sat with her and painted
her nails even though she was sleeping most of the time. The home was always welcoming to my brother and I when we visited. I even had a situation where I needed help and they were so helpful and made an embarrassing situation less so. All in all I can't recommend this home high enough. Mum passed with care and dignity and respect from the staff.

An amazing nursing home with amazing staff and I cannot recommend them highly enough. My dad became a resident here over a year ago after sustaining a life-changing brain injury in the hospital. The staff are kind, caring and compassionate. Dad is so relaxed and chilled out here, it is truly a home
from home. There is a lovely, relaxed and homely atmosphere. Dad's family can leave Threeways with peace of mind knowing he is receiving the best possible care. Thank you to all the staff.

My mum has been at Threeways for just over a year. She is very well cared for, treated with kindness, respect and dignity and is well looked after. The food choice is great, fresh and appetising. Mum has put on much-needed weight since being there. Staff are kind, caring, polite and communicative and
responsive to her needs and any concerns we have. Threeways is always clean, well-kept and maintained and has lovely gardens. Outings and entertainment are organised regularly. Happy for Mum to be there.

Threeways provide fantastic care for my mum and she is always treated with dignity. The staff and management are always approachable and encourage family members to communicate any issues. Issues are always addressed accordingly. Every couple of months there is a friends and family forum where questions
can be asked and any news can be shared. Food and drink are tailored to the resident's needs and requirements. The staff work hard to put on activities for the residents. There are many activities including bingo and lunch club. We can leave after a visit knowing that my mum will be well looked after and if there are any concerns, they will ring us to discuss. I am so pleased that we chose Threeways to care for my mum.

I am writing a review about my mother's care in Threeways as I cannot fault the care they offer. We are so lucky to have found this nursing home as it fulfils all of my mother's needs. She is in the later stages of Alzheimer's and the nursing staff and carers show great respect for her dignity. She
was very poorly when transferred from the hospital to the home for long term care, but they have nursed her so carefully that her health has improved beyond recognition. The staff are all friendly and welcoming to visitors, and keep the family informed of all her progress and needs. A great relief to us that Mum is so happy and well looked after at this final stage of her life. Thank you Threeways.

Unfortunately, Dad's stay at Threeways was all too brief, but he was extremely happy there, and we could not have chosen a better place for him to end his days.
It is genuinely a home filled with love and care. Dad's medical needs were met by the excellent nursing team, and his social and personal
needs were covered by the rest of the staff.
My sister and I, live a distance away but we knew Dad was in safe hands and we knew we could phone whenever we needed to. We spent Dad's last two weeks with him and we as a family were shown compassion, respect and love, at such a sad time, the whole team wrapped us in a big warm hug.

Threeways is an excellent nursing home. We had found the staff kind, caring and highly professional to both residents and visitors alike. The home is always clean and tidy, food tasty and nutritious. I have highly recommend this home for respite or end of life care. Thank you Threeways!

Dad was admitted with Alzheimers, for end of life care following a rather traumatic stay in hospital. The manager went out of his way to secure a place in Seaford after we had been let down by others. From the moment he was admitted to Threeways and despite his lack of mobility and verbal communication,
Dad was treated with respect and dignity. He loved the music playing in his room and the interaction with all the staff and we could tell he was happier as he was eating and communicating better until unfortunately, his physical condition deteriorated. At this point, the staff were superb and nothing was too much trouble in support of the family. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Threeways for any family finding themselves in a similar difficult position.

Reply from David Miller, Registered Manager at Threeways

The best nursing home in the area - they are friendly, helpful, kind and extremely supportive. Very professional but they have a home from home atmosphere. Myself and my family were so happy with everything they did for us.

The support my family have had from this care home has been superb. Right through from May when making an initial enquiry about a room, to the day-to-day care Dad now receives. We have felt involved and respected at all times and feel confident leaving Dad in their care.
I can’t praise the caring,
clinical, managerial and support staff enough for their care, patience and expertise when caring for Dad. He has complex health and personal needs and it has been a relief to be able to rely on others to get to know Dad, maintain his dignity and deliver the standard and type of care his family want for him.

My mother was in Threeways for end of life care. She was given such tender loving care, in fact, the whole family was cared for at such a difficult time. Mum was kept clean and comfortable without pain and passed peacefully away. Her room was lovely, her favourite things were brought in. One really
wonderful thing was her beloved dog was able to visit which gave mum such joy in her final days.

My sister was at Three Ways for the last nine weeks of her life. The care and comfort she received was exemplary. As a family we felt very well supported too. I would not hesitate to recommend Three Ways.

Current Review Score: 8.3 (8.318)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.3 (8.318) out of 10 for Threeways is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 3 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.6 out of 5 from 3 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 4.735 for Threeways is calculated as follows: ( (25 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 34 Ratings = 4.735

  • 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 3.583 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Threeways is based on 3 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 = 3.25

    • 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 45 registered maximum number of service users is 9. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 9 = 0.333

  • 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.
