Mum lived with me in a busy household for over 7 years. After breaking her hip and a month in hospital her dementia escalated. It was with a heavy heart that I realised it was not the best choice to keep her at home. She was no longer able to manage stairs, was sleeping most of the day and unable to
be left alone. Having visited 3 other care homes I entered Nightingale House and knew within 10 minutes that it was the right place for mum. The staff are all so lovely and care so much about each and every resident. Mum is thriving and doing so much more than she was at home. The food is very good and she's starting to put on a much needed bit of weight. She hasn't once asked to 'come home'. She is very content and settled. I have no concerns about her living with her lovely new family, she's in the best care home and we were so lucky that they were able to accommodate her. Our family is a close one and we all visit regularly and we feel very welcome by everyone. Thank you.

Reply from Theresa Rivera, Manager at Nightingale House

My grandmother became a resident of Nightingale House in January 2025 after living with my mum for eight years. We were so worried she would be sad to leave home, but we could not have been happier with how she has settled in at Nightingale House. The staff are exceptional, so kind, friendly and have
us feeling so confident that Grandma is in the best place. She literally looks like a new woman. After spending days alone at home while everyone is at work, she is now surrounded by the most attentive staff, all day, every day. Thank you so much.

Reply from Theresa Rivera, Manager at Nightingale House

My dad stayed at Nightingale House for three months and I cannot recommend them enough. All the staff are so caring and friendly. It was so amazing to see Dad, who suffered with dementia, interact with the staff and smile so much when he saw them. They were very tentative about his needs and made sure
he had everything he needed. They also made me feel very welcome when I went to visit. He had a lovely day when they did a bank holiday BBQ and put on an amazing spread of food, with a singer and everyone was dancing.
If anyone is looking for a care home for a loved one I would highly recommend Nightingale House. I couldn't fault them at all.

Reply from Theresa Rivera, Manager at Nightingale House

Thank you so much for sharing your positive review of your Dad's stay with us at Nightingale. We are truly grateful for your kind words and are delighted to hear that his time with us was so well-received by both him and yourself. Our team deeply committed to providing compassionate and attentive care, especially for those living with dementia, and it means a great deal to know that you felt supported and reassured during his stay. We strive to create a warm and secure environment where every resident feels respected and valued, and we are so pleased that this was reflected in your father's experience.

The staff at Nightingale House are all so lovely - professional, attentive, and always ready to help. The manager and activities coordinator in particular go above and beyond, taking my aunt out to her medical appointments and ensuring all her needs are met.
The facilities are simple but comfortable,
and the building is within a short walk from Twickenham High Street.

I am very happy with the care my mum gets from the staff, who are very attentive and I am very impressed with the home, which is always clean, inviting and fit for purpose. The addition of the events coordinator is a great asset, with all the activities she arranges for the residents. The summer BBQ
was a particularly nice idea.

This will be my last review as my dear mother passed away in mid July 2024. I thank all the staff for giving her the appropriate end-of-life care. They kept her comfortable most of the time. Even the kitchen staff did their best to prepare meals that they hoped she would eat. The cleaner kept her room
tidy.
The above staff always popped in to say hello and have a quick chat with her. The main carer has got a heart of gold. His care was genuine. Mum loved him. The best part was there was this lovely carer who stayed with her holding her hands till the end of her passing. I cannot thank her enough. I am not allowed to mention names but I am sure the individuals know who I mean. I take this opportunity to thank the Manager and all her team for all they have done. It can be busy sometimes but look out for each other. That is what teamwork is all about. GOD BLESS YOU ALL.

Reply from Theresa Rivera, Manager at Nightingale House

On behalf of the entire team at Nightingale House. I want to express our heartfelt gratitude for your kind review and for taking the time to share such thoughtful words about your loved ones experience with us.

Knowing that we could provide comfort and support during such an important time is deeply meaningful to us. Please know that our thoughts continue to be with you and your family.

I am delighted to submit this review, as on Friday 23rd of August, I had the pleasure of attending the Nightingale Care Home BBQ for residents, relatives and staff. The BBQ and afternoon events, including live singing entertainment, encapsulated and demonstrated the professionalism, integrity and understanding
of residents, by Stag Care, the Nightingale House and especially staff. The BBQ was an extremely happy event, blessed by lovely weather, where all the residents and guests were made to feel welcome, truly an all-inclusive social event.
Events such as this, coupled with the excellent and consistent care for my mother's health and well-being ensure the highest quality of life for my mother and the other residents.
I and my family are immensely grateful for all the care home does for my mother especially the extra events such as the BBQ, which make such a difference and require staff to work even harder than they do normally.

Reply from Theresa Rivera, Manager at Nightingale House

My mother has been a resident at Nightingale House for nearly 2 years. I want to praise the staff - carers, support and catering - who make her stay there very pleasurable. My mother is now in much better shape than she was in 2022 and that's fantastic given her age. The staff are kind and caring and
the catering is brilliant.

My mother has been in Nightingale House for almost two years now, and has received excellent care and support. The staff are so friendly and caring and always encourage her to participate in activities. It is very important for me to feel that she is well taken care of and safe. I live abroad and call

The home could do with some updating.

Following a home assessment, my wife was admitted to Nightingale, and a warm and friendly atmosphere with attentive staff greeted us. We were made comfortable and shown a large, bright room with adjacent W.C. The staff took care of everything and before long, my wife was settled in. Subsequent visits
have been many and refreshments and even lunch is always offered. I enjoy each visit and sharing a meal with my loved one is a bonus. The main carer is a particular asset.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.771)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.771) out of 10 for Nightingale House 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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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 4.771 for Nightingale House is calculated as follows: ( (146 Excellents x 5) + (27 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 179 Ratings = 4.771

  • 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 Nightingale House is based on 15 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 21 registered maximum number of service users is 4.2, which has been reached with 15 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.
