Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

My sister has Alzheimer's and therefore was not very keen to go into residential care. However, the staff have been very thoughtful and helpful in reassuring her. She also had to go to hospital after a fall and fracturing her pelvis but they were keen to have her back and have continued her rehabilitation
with a lot of care. I like that there are a number of activities going on and the staff provide stimulation. They also contact me when necessary and respond positively when I request something. It has been enormously helpful that they arranged for my sister to have another hearing test and now has been provided with new NHS hearing aids.

The Hyde is set in a beautiful setting with a warm welcome to a wooden surrounding hallway, the staff are welcoming and friendly they are true Professionals. The Food is lovely with variation in a beautiful dining room. They do many occupational things daily from skittles, basketball, bingo, and making
jig saws, to crafting and taking part in all occasions, chair excises, dancing, singing, entertainers, flower arranging, cake, biscuits and sweet making, going out around the grounds daily and feeding the chicken and ducks and gardening with staff escorts going on trips.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5

My husband has Parkinson’s Disease and attends daycare regularly at The Hyde and sometimes respite care when I need a break. He enjoys the beautiful gardens in good weather and the peace and quiet of the library at other times. He likes the interaction with residents at meal times and sometimes joins
in the activities.
The management and staff are kind and considerate and allow him to make his own decisions but keep an eye on him in case of falls etc. They help him to be independent but remind him to take his frequent medication doses. He enjoys being at The Hyde, in its happy atmosphere and all the other residents appear to thrive in the next best to family care.

My mum has been cared for sensitively and with love and understanding. This loving environment of love and care from staff members has enabled Mum to feel secure and be involved with social activities as she wishes. Therefore, through the love and care Mum has received, this has definitely benefited
her well-being and given her a good quality of life in her later years. Thank you to all staff members who have contributed to the care of my mum.

I am very pleased with the care my mother receives. The staff are caring, respectful, efficient and knowledgeable and fully understand the needs of my mother. The dedicated care has ensured that during her stay her health has been maintained, despite her severe dementia, lack of mobility and poor swallow
reflect. It is reassuring to know she is so well provided for.

The Hyde Care Home is an excellent, well-managed residential home. The staff are always kind and courteous. Nothing is too much trouble. Numerous activities keep the residents amused or entertained, happy and healthy as far as is possible given their advanced age. There can be no cause for concern on
any aspect of the way in which the home is run by management.

A great happy, friendly and family-orientated place. It's the team there that really makes it. They take great care of everyone and treat everybody as an individual. My aunt has made great friends with many of the team there and that helps make it into a real home.

My mother has been a Resident at The Hyde for three and a half years and has been cared for very kindly and efficiently. All her medical needs are met, and communications with the home are informative and helpful. It is a pleasure to visit, the staff are cheerful and pleasant and the atmosphere is homely
and contented. Like so many care homes, The Hyde has had its ups and downs as staffing levels fluctuate due to the pandemic and subsequent difficulties in recruitment, but under its new management, this appears to be smoothing out. The senior management team have worked very hard to keep standards of care high. I can recommend The Hyde to anyone seeking a placement for an elderly relative - a happy home in beautiful surroundings.

Just been to see my sister, so happy. We were given coffee and made so welcome. The staff give her lots of support as she's terrible with her legs and she is not so mobile now after breaking her hip. The activities they have are wonderful; just lately, they even wrapped in blankets stargazing and looking
at the snow moon. My sister really enjoyed that. So overall, The Hyde, we give 100% and thank you.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.664)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.664) out of 10 for The Hyde Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 19 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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 4.664 for The Hyde Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (151 Excellents x 5) + (64 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 220 Ratings = 4.664

  • 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 The Hyde Care Home is based on 19 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 28 registered maximum number of service users is 5.6, which has been reached with 19 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.

Introducing Rebecca Dawe
Home Manager at The Hyde, Bridport


What does ‘kindness’ mean to you?


“Empathy, dignity and wellbeing.”


As a dedicated healthcare professional, Rebecca has gained a wealth of experience in providing care and nursing support to elderly people, to enrich their lives. She is a knowledgeable and dedicated leader who is passionate about delivering the highest standards in care and quality of life for Residents.


Rebecca closely shares HC-One’s vision in aiming to provide the kindest care for each and every Resident. She decided to work in the care sector because, as a young child, she helped her grandmother care for children with learning difficulties; this gave her a passion to improve the lives of others.


When asked what she enjoys most about her role, Rebecca remarked:


“Working in an amazing team who are dedicated in providing the highest levels of care.”


Outside of work, Rebecca enjoys spending time with her family, including her sons, and she also enjoys travelling. She counts herself very lucky that she was able to go traveling to East Africa and worked in two orphanages and a maternity hospital.


If you would like to find out more about The Hyde, Rebecca would be delighted to have an informal discussion with you over the phone to answer any questions and provide further information.
