We needed respite care for my mother after a lengthy stay in hospital.
We were impressed on the exterior and even more impressed with the interior. All very clean. Staff go above and beyond to get to know residents and their needs.

My mum went into Belmont View in Hoddesdon after a stay in hospital. Unfortunately, Mum passed away after a few short weeks of moving into the home. I cannot praise the home and the staff enough. They were so kind to my mum and her end-of-life care was second to none. Mum had dementia and was very confused
a lot of the time but the staff were very patient with her and sympathetic to her condition. I should also make a point of thanking two members of staff, in particular, who were also very kind to the family who had a few really bad days due to Mum's condition.
Thank you Belmont View for making Mum's passing easier for her and the whole family.

My husband came into the respite wing for a short stay which turned into a stay of three and a half months. In all that time, he was welcomed and cared for by the staff members. I cannot praise them enough for their dedication to their residents' care.

Mum was well looked after and was healthy and happy when I arrived to collect her.
All her clothes were clean and washed and so was she.
I was very happy knowing she was happy.
The girls were lovely and nothing was any trouble.
Thank you!

My mum has been in the home for two months now, and the staff are so caring and attentive not only to Mum but also to the other residents of the home.
I and my wife could not be happier with the home and staff, always on hand if we have any questions; most importantly, I know Mum is safe and well
looked after.

It was good to see residents up in the lunge together, and they had an entertainer. They all seem to be enjoying the music. My sister and I were able to sit with Mother while the entertainment was going on. It was the first time we have been able to go in and see our mother for two months. It's good
to see that the residents are well cared for and not just kept in their bedrooms.

Reply from Deborah Yadev, Marketing Manager at Belmont View

My mother is being looked after in a kind, caring environment. The staff are as responsive as they can be in today's economic climate. Ideally, there would be a provision of physiotherapy to maintain and improve mobility, but I understand that this and more staff are required would cost money.

Reply from Deborah Yadev, Marketing Manager at Belmont View

Good day, and thank you for the review. It really has been a difficult period, there were so many things we usually provided that we could not, like most other care providers we were tied to the changing guidelines and regulations. Hopefully, as things change we can offer more services and be able to make more residents stay with us enjoyable. Have a lovely day!

Belmont View is such a lovely place, I feel very welcome when I visit my mum. Everyone is so friendly and happy to help. I feel that my mum is very well looked after and always smells nice and clean. Even though I'm sad when I leave her I know that she is in safe hands. I would recommend this care home
to anyone.

As my brother was admitted during the pandemic I have not had much access to lounges and all facilities or much experience of activities and food. My experience of the place has been good. The staff are always helpful and though there is obviously a shortage of staff it appears everyone is doing their
best.

Reply from Deborah Yadev, Marketing Manager at Belmont View

Good day and thank you for the honest review. We were faced with similar staffing conditions as other care providers during the height of the pandemic. This has improved and we are now at full staffing levels in relation to the number of residents. Our home is a lovely home and we continue to be on hand to accept any suggestions. Have a lovely day!

Pandemic visit - The staff are trying hard to provide necessary access to our loved ones, but at times difficult to arrange, but struggling with why so few appointments available understand staffing. The actual visits and staff are very very helpful. Not always sure what we can and can't do.

Reply from Deborah Yadev, Interim Marketing Manager at Belmont View

Good day, and thank you for taking the time to write a review of our home. As you would appreciate every day there is the possibility of new guidelines that need to be followed by care homes. We try our best to ensure families are able to interact with their loved ones but this is not always as easy as it should be. There are many protocols to follow for the safety and well-being of everyone. Please continue to bear with us and feel free to contact the home manager directly for clarity on any issues. Have a lovely day and hopefully we can better bridge the gap of visiting soon.

The 'family' evenings I have attended, including the Valentine's Evening have been excellent, with great care going into their preparation and equally during the events themselves. The food especially was excellent and I'm sure my wife enjoyed it also. Thank you all very much.

Valentine's Day Party - a lovely idea, thank you. A good atmosphere, good food and an opportunity to meet another couple, at table, from another part of the home.
Much effort had been made with decorations, lighting and snow pictures.

Current Review Score: 8.8 (8.839)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.8 (8.839) out of 10 for Belmont View is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.0 out of 5 from 6 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 4.886 for Belmont View is calculated as follows: ( (63 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 70 Ratings = 4.886

  • 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 3.953 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Belmont View is based on 6 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 = 3.6

    • 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 85 registered maximum number of service users is 17. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 17 = 0.353

  • 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.
