My Aunt was suffering from Vascular dementia when she entered the house 18 months before her death. The staff showed her kindness and understanding and dealt well with her mood swings and confusion. Despite being in her nineties, she was still a very active lady and found it difficult to come to terms
with having so little to do at times, but the staff let her help with washing-up and other small jobs to help her feel more at home. Up until her last few weeks, she enjoyed her food and the meals always seemed well cooked and substantial. At the end of her life, she was cared for with compassion and dignity. I would definitely recommend Havengore House to anyone considering going there.

After my father's last visit to hospital we knew it was only a matter of time before he passed away. He was in the latter stages of dementia and on the last downhill slope. The staff were excellent, showing real care and compassion for my father. We couldn't have wished for better care in his last few
days. I would certainly recommend Havengore House to anyone hoping to get good quality care for an ageing loved one.

My mother resided in Havengore House for 2 yrs and five months. Over this period she was very happy and content with her surroundings. All care homes are only as good as the staff employed and the management and owners of the property are always on hand and aware of all facets of the home. There is
nothing posh about Havengore House but there is a homely feel about the place which makes the patrons feel comfortable.

Excellent. Extremely caring staff who look after the residents and individuals. They make the residents feel valued like they are an important part of a big family.
There are lots of activities organised throughout the week and relatives are encouraged to join in if they wish. I can visit whenever
I and the staff make me feel like a part of the family too.

Warm and friendly.
Old fashioned but that is what old folk relate to.
I have made countless unannounced visits and never found anything to worry about.

Our mother was very poorly with cancer and in the end with advanced dementia. She spent 6 weeks at Havengore House and she was very happy to be there. We thank all the staff there who helped her in her end of days. We were all very happy with the staff who helped her.

In 2012 we brought my father up from a home in Kent. The reason being that my mother was finding it difficult being on her own. After quite a long search we found the above care home for dad and it really stood out from all we had seen. They were very happy to show us around and we were impressed right
away with their friendly attitude. The cleanliness and the general good feeling we had about the home overall. Dad seemed to settle very well and in the early period he was always in the company of the other residents and had a good relationship with the carers. In the last few months of his life the dementia deteriorated and he was unable to manage his food alone and had to be fed by carers. This worked very well and we were impressed with their patience and caring ways.

From the first time I visited Havengore House I knew what a caring home it would be for my mum. Each resident was made to feel special, they catered for mums individual needs and nothing was too much trouble. I cannot fault this home. It's what all care homes should strive to be like.

My mother was at Havengore House for 14 months. I visited many homes before deciding on Havngore House. As soon as I walked in the door I knew this would be the place I would like my mother to live. I spent many full days at Havengore and was able to see the constant respect and loving care given to
the residents. My mothers room was very pleasant and always very clean. The in-house prepared food is very good. Management was very professional and attentive.

A really homely place. A lovely atmosphere and friendly staff. From mum's late arrival at 10:30pm (thanks to hospital transport!) she was treated with respect and cared for well. visiting is welcome anytime and staff ring if there are any concerns. Her stay was brief but I was confident she was cared
fro. The cats make it a home from home a lovely touch.

My mother was in the home for two and a half years and in that time she was treated with dignity, loving, caring and nothing was too much trouble. Home cooked food was excellent and met her requirements. I visited daily and on no occasion did I witness any wrong doing. In my opinion this is an extremely
good care home and I have nothing but praise.

We found Havengore House to be a very pleasant, homely, relaxed place for our mum. Nothing was too much trouble. The care she received was excellent, lots of entertainment, days out, hairdresser and chiropodist all visited regularly. The room was spotless and bed changed regularly. Staff were thoughtful
and had compassion and empathy with residents and their families. When mum was poorly they made sure she has the best care possible. It was a hard decision to put mum in a home, but we were always pleased with our choice of Havengore House.

My Mum was in Havengore for two and a half years and it is a really lovely home from home with excellent care. The owner was always helpful and the manager so kind, supportive and caring, as were her staff, that I could relax and know that Mum couldn't be anywhere better. As Mum's dementia progressed
and she became very poorly, the time and attention they gave Mum was more than I could have hoped for and I was always kept informed of any problems and knew that a doctor would always be called when necessary. I thoroughly recommend Havengore and will miss my visits there. Thank you.

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.189)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.189) out of 10 for Havengore House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 7 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 4.489 for Havengore House is calculated as follows: ( (67 Excellents x 5) + (17 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) + (3 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 94 Ratings = 4.489

  • 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 4.7 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Havengore House is based on 7 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 = 3.7

    • 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 31 registered maximum number of service users is 6.2, which has been reached with 7 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.
