Well, what can I say? My mum moved in in June 2020 and as you can imagine was a difficult time due to Covid. The entire staff went over and beyond in their care for my mum. I cannot begin to express how thankful and appreciative of the love and care that was given to my mum during her time there.
Even
towards the end of Mum's life the love and care never faded. I thank each and every member of the team from the bottom of my heart for all the love and care you gave to my mum.

From the day that I first viewed Hanningfield in 2021 for our precious mum, I believed that she would be very happy here. Mum took up residence in February 2022, following a period of social isolation she quickly became herself again, safe, happy, contented, singing and she even regained her appetite.
She was so well cared for in every aspect with complete dignity and kindness and treated just like one of the family. Mum could join in with activities or spend time in the comfort of her own room, the choice was entirely hers, she constantly reported: "This is a good place to be". Staff were always courteous and telephone communication was excellent. As a family, we cannot recommend Hanningfield more highly. Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts.

The staff at Hanningfield go above and beyond to make the residents feel welcome. The care for individual needs is exemplary whether it is dressing, bathing or nutritional needs.
Communication is excellent and when action is excellent and when action is needed the team resolve any issues immediately.
My father looked a different person within two weeks being in Hanningfield

My father was at Hanningfield Care Home for over three years, up until his death in January 2023. The level of care he received throughout that time was excellent. The staff were always very caring because of his condition (Alzheimer's and Dementia) he needs took up a lot of their time.
We, my father's
family cannot thank them enough.

My mother spent eight weeks at Hanningfield to enable her to return home after a hospital stay. As a family, we were so grateful to the team for providing a happy, secure and positive environment for our mum. The personal care and compassion received were of a very good standard. The rooms and building
looked tied in some areas, but what really matters is the care. Areas for improvement are food (not enough home-cooked or food quality ingredients).

Reply from Ian Tobiansky, Proprietor at Hanningfield

I'm very happy to hear that you were satisfied with the level of care we provided for your mother. We do have a very wonderful team, and your praise means a lot to us all. All our meals are produced fresh on a daily basis with locally sourced ingredients by our dedicated chef for which your mother's personal preferences were always catered to, and your father was always provided with a meal upon request. Though we appreciate all feedback and have nothing but fond memories of both your mother and your family as a whole.

Since my mum has gone into this care home, she is kept clean, well-fed, she seems to have settled in very well, the manager and staff are all polite, helpful and friendly. I would not hesitate to recommend this care home to other people.

My mother stayed at Hanningfield for respite care for a week in April 2022. I can not praise the staff highly enough for their hard work and warm welcome.
From the second we came through the door, the manager and her team made my mother feel at home and since she has come back, she has been full of
stories about how well the staff treated her, how good the food was and how welcomed and cared for she felt while she was there.
From my family and myself, we just want to say ‘thank you’. We will always put Hanningfield as our first choice when Mum has to have respite care in the future.

My father went into Hanningfield Retirement Home in March 2018. He was always kept well groomed, clan and felt happy/settled in his new surroundings. Hanningfield keep their residents entertained with a variety of in-house activities and employ the services of musicians for musical activities. This
care home focuses on 'care' and not cosmetical, modern building and equipment upgrades. What they have is, indeed, sufficient to meet the residents daily needs. It is a very 'homely' environment. My father's palliative care needs were treated with utmost sensitivity. Our family were always kept well informed of changes in my fathers health. Thank you Hanningfield!

From the first meeting, Mum was treated with the utmost respect, dignity and every effort was made by all staff to make her feel welcome and comfortable.
The home's open door policy is very open, welcoming and convenient for all members to pop in.
We all had a high opinion of all staff members we
met and Mum was looked after by all with a genuine and caring manner.
A BIG THANK YOU to all the staff and the lovely and caring owners for all they have done for my mum and our whole family to feel completely welcomed and cared for.

This care home is the best residential home in this area in my opinion. I have recently had experience of all aspects whilst visiting one of my previous clients. I have recommended this home to many people. Excellent care provided by professional well-trained staff who are motivated, polite and the
most caring staff I have met. The owners put the care of the residents before everything and provide a happy family environment.

A lovely friendly home. The staff are all wonderful, as are the homeowners who are often on site and getting involved with the residents.
My mum has been here a few months now and has settled in well. It's lovely to not have to worry about her any longer, I know she is well looked after and safe.
It may not be the most modern of places but the care and attention are second to none and that is more important to me for my mother than decor and soft furnishings!

My nan was a resident for a short period of time, but in that time she was well looked after and cared for. The manager, staff and owners were understanding, friendly and always had time for me to have a shoulder to cry on or a cuddle.

My father had to go into care and I placed him in Hanningfield and he absolutely loves it there. He was always saying I've had my life and wanted to die but now he's got a new lease of life. The owners are an amazing family and the staff from management to the carers, cleaners and kitchen staff are
fantastic with all the residents. My dad is always laughing when I go and visit him. I can't thank the Hanningfield team enough.

My mother has been a resident at Hanningfield for 16 months now. Mother went into care after dementia was taking a hold of her memory. Since being there my mother has always been well cared for and fed. The staff are always very helpful in every respect. The times that mum has been taken ill the staff
have never hesitated in calling in medical qualified assistance.

Current Review Score: 9.0 (8.988)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.0 (8.988) out of 10 for Hanningfield 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 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.1 out of 5 from 5 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 4.847 for Hanningfield is calculated as follows: ( (51 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 59 Ratings = 4.847

  • 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 4.141 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Hanningfield is based on 5 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 = 3.5

    • 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 39 registered maximum number of service users is 7.8. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 7.8 = 0.641

  • 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.
