Carehome.co.uk, the UK's leading care home directory and comparison website, holds its annual Care Home Awards to recognise the 20 top-rated care homes in each region of the UK. These are based on individual review scores that carehome.co.uk have received from Residents, and their friends, family and loved ones, demonstrating real life opinions and first-hand experiences from those most closely connected to the home. 

Admirals Reach received an overall rating of 10/10 based on independent reviews, in recognition of the high standards of care provided at the home – which provides residential, nursing and nursing dementia services for the local community. The 128-bed home also received a recent inspection which was rated as SAFE.

Located in a quiet residential area, this friendly care home is known for its excellence in care, delicious food and incredibly friendly staff who are always there to deliver high standards of care to Residents, and support Relatives in all aspects of the journey. The home also provides a wide range of different facilities and features for Residents to benefit from, including a hair salon, regular coffee mornings, a wellbeing programme and sensory room. 

HC-One is committed to providing the highest standards of care in every community they serve, which is demonstrated by their 9.5/10 average rating on the carehome.co.uk website – which is among the highest review scores across the care home sector.

Review from Tracy B (Daughter of Resident) published on 30 May 2022, Carehome.co.uk, stated:
“My mother has been in Nelson House for nearly two years. I can say all the staff are kind, patient and caring. Mum always enjoyed the food and chats with staff. Room was clean. In the last days of Mum's life, all staff went above and beyond for not just Mum but family as well. The staff here are heroes.”

Admirals Reach’s Home Manager, Lal Mangalam, said:
“Our Residents and their families, friends and loved ones are always at the heart of everything we do at Admirals Reach and so it means the world to know that they recognise the dedication and kind care of the whole team – as reflected in their independent reviews on carehome.co.uk and our position as a Top 20 Care Home in the East of England.”

“I am delighted that Admirals Reach have been announced as a winner of the Carehome.co.uk Top 20 Award 2022 in the East of England, based on independent reviews by those using our services over the past year. This is an amazing achievement, which reaffirms our mission to be the first-choice care home for Residents, their loved ones and our Colleagues in each of the communities we serve.”
