Take a video tour of our care home
Discover everything you need to know about our home with our latest video tour. It’ll give you an overview of our home, from the care we provide to the facilities on offer, with photography of the bedrooms and living areas too.
Bright and cheerful: a lovely place to invite friends and family
The Arkley has a huge atrium with a glass roof, letting light pour into the social areas below. Among all the indoor palms, it feels like the perfect place to sit and enjoy tea and cake with a visitor.
Great places to socialise, enjoy an activity or have quiet time
Residents can get their hair done in our salon, chat with friends in the tea-room and even get creative in our activity room before sitting down to a tasty lunch in one of our dining rooms.
Lovely garden screened by mature trees
Our garden has a patio with seating. Residents can enjoy the sunshine or sit in the shade under a parasol while enjoying the flowers and birds.
A therapeutic sensory room
The sensory room is designed to help residents remember old memories from images, sounds and smells.
Pretty bedrooms and WC facilities
All our bedrooms are spacious, nicely furnished, comfortable, and residents can have meals there if wanted. It’s the ideal place for a bit of ‘me’ time with a book or knitting.
There’s no typical day at The Arkley, but we arrange plenty to do, both here at the home as well as out and about.
Plenty to keep mind and body active
We take residents out on trips to the zoo and riverboat trips so they can see nature from a different angle.
Getting involved with daily tasks
Our residents love taking care of our home, whether that’s looking after the plants from their wheelchair or helping us with a bit of paperwork in the office. These are great for using skills and enjoying a sense of achievement.
Visiting animals always raise a smile
We get visits from all sorts of animals – from fluffy bunnies and waggy dogs to reptiles and creepy crawlies. They’ll even visit the residents who are spending time in the comfort of their own rooms.
“People received personalised care and support which met their needs, reflected their preferences. People benefited from a variety of activities, events and trips out that were available to reduce social isolation, give meaning and purpose and enhance their wellbeing.”
"The leadership of The Arkley is wonderful, as are all the home’s staff. As well as providing compassionate and loving care for my mother, the home does all it can to support the wider family. We cannot fault The Arkley Care Home."
Son of resident, 28 June 2021, carehome.co.uk
"This review is well overdue. First of all, I’d like to say a huge thank you to all the staff at The Arkley Care Home for their caring, compassion and patience in looking after my dear sister. My sister was barely 60 years old when she arrived at The Arkley, she was on death’s doorstep suffering so much with her rheumatoid arthritis that we, the family, were sure that she would not be with us for very much longer. So it was unbelievable to see my sister, weeks later, looking so much better. Unfortunately, I do not get to see my sister as often as I would like, living abroad, but speaking to her on video calls and seeing the huge difference in her is so heart-warming. I and my family cannot thank the staff enough for all their hard work and dedication. They do a great and amazing job."
Sister of resident, 21 June 2021, carehome.co.uk
"I am bowled over by every brilliant aspect of Arkley. The care, the standard, the humanity, the kindness, the patience, the ambiance, the environment, the meals provided, the homely feel, the very high professional standards of all the staff and I do emphasise the warmth (and repeating myself) the humanity and compassion towards the residents. The high level of care, the joys of a multi-racial staff, so experience and understanding is across a broad spectrum and not just an efficient, robotic response but such a comfortable experience for all concerned. It's obvious that information is reviewed, shared, and the staff are always there if I have a query, and the updates if needed, are fast and the delivery is always gentle and kind."
Daughter of resident, 7 June 2021, carehome.co.uk
