Hallamshire Residential Home is a grand and stately Victorian Manor, tastefully converted and extended to provide excellent facilities and care to all of its residents. The home is situated in the city of Sheffield, very close to shops, local amenities and public transport.

Hallamshire has recently been renovated to a high standard, developed as a luxurious, modern and beautifully decorated care home. It is registered with the Quality Care Commission to accommodate 32 residents in thirty two bedrooms, many with en-suite facilities, all fully equipped with telephone and television points, vanity basins, central heating and a high-tech nurse call system.

A spacious, well appointed dining room, two comfortable, plush lounges and bright and sunny conservatory all overlook the charming landscaped gardens. The beautiful grounds outside are perfect for enjoying the fresh air and delightful, picturesque surroundings. Residents are also welcome to take advantage of a quiet sitting area, two large passenger lifts, a number of assisted and unassisted bathrooms and off-street parking with level access.

Hallamshire is famous for the gourmet meals prepared by the chef every day. The appetising, tasty and nutritious menu at Hallamshire provides residents with a healthy and varied diet. Specific dietary requirements and residents’ preferences are catered for. Meals are served in the elegant dining room but residents can dine in their own rooms if they wish.

The dedication and devotion of highly-trained staff has established their reputation as an exceptionally ‘friendly and caring’ home. Residents’ quality of life is greatly enhanced by the comfortable, warm and safe environment that Hallamshire provides.

My mum came to Hallamshire in December 2022. Since the beginning of her time here, the staff have been incredibly kind and compassionate towards her, taking her to their hearts and doing their best to get to know her, despite her speech, language and hearing difficulties. The activities at this home
are absolutely outstanding and my mum was eagerly participating in many activities she had never done before, including indoor golf, until the day before she had a stroke, at 99. The care she has received since this massive increase in her frailty and disability has been of the highest standard, practically, physically, and emotionally. It is a huge comfort to know she is in such safe and caring hands.

I don’t get chance to visit very often but when I do it is always pleasant. The staff here are all very kind and attentive. It is nice to see the activities they get up to and brilliant that residents have the opportunity to go on trips after staying inside during covid for so long. I must say the meals
always look great too.

I've not seen my friend for some time, due to covid, but I managed to visit just after Christmas. I was made to feel very welcome by the staff. My friend loves the home, enjoys her food and loves all of the staff. She said they are all so friendly. The home is very clean, we went to her room, and I
noticed that it was very clean, and smelt clean. My friend also enjoys the activities they provide, she says she doesn't want to join in all activities but enjoys watching.

I have recently had to make the hardest decision of my life and place my lovely mum in a home. The only thing that made it slightly easier was visiting this home. The home is beautiful and the staff are all lovely, you can tell they genuinely care. The activities provided are absolutely fantastic and
very varied (not just bingo everyday) The home is clean and her room is lovely with a nice view. I would highly recommend this home to anyone.

My mother has been a resident for nearly two years. During that period the staff have been wonderful. She has been seriously ill and their care and consideration for her and for her family has been outstanding. When she is well they try very hard to combine the best physical and mental care to give

My mum moved into Hallamshire Care Home in December due to worsening dementia symptoms. The staff and manager were wonderful at a very upsetting time. Mum has some challenging issues with her dementia, but the staff have all really helped her settle in, to the very best of their ability. She also has
some friends she's palled up with and she has been engaging in some of the activities. To be able to look for photos of my lovely mum engaged in things with other residents such as crafts, and movement class is a real comfort to me. Mum's room is always spotless, and Mum always has her hair done nicely, her make-up done, and often her beloved earrings in place, which to me just shows the extra level of care that is shown here. So far, I have to say the home has exceeded my expectations, and the beautiful grounds are an added bonus!

My Mum has been a resident for three years now and settled in very quickly at Hallamshire care home after a period at her own home with visiting carers, during which time her health, anxiety levels and well being all began to suffer.
Since moving to the home, her health has improved and Mum is very
happy in a safe and caring environment. The Management and staff continue to be excellent, particularly in the most recent challenging times. The prompt decision to "close" the home to visitors and families at the beginning of the Covid outbreak was clearly a difficult but necessary decision. The visiting tent in the garden is a great idea and the most successful way to meet loved ones in a safe and caring environment. The dedication of all the management and staff, levels of care and humour is inspirational. Finally, the entertainment packages provided on a daily, weekly basis continue to be stimulating and good fun.

It was a very difficult decision choosing a home for our mum and we visited many homes in the area. We are so pleased we chose Hallamshire as she has been very happy there and we have felt extremely comfortable that she is receiving great care and love. The home has a good family feel to it with many
visitors knowing other resident's names and saying hello and chatting with them. The staff are great and it is clear they care for their residents very much despite how difficult some of them might be at times. There are lots of activities both in and out of the home (pre-Covid) and there is plenty of communication of this, with photos etc. I would definitely recommend this home and would make the same choice if doing it all again.

Mum has been very well cared for in the Hallamshire for 6-years now and clearly feels safe and looked after. Covid-19 has been a massive challenge, and I have been so impressed by the dedication of the staff and their determined good humour, good cheer and resourcefulness. They have done their absolute

Our mum went to the Hallamshire for respite care in March and, once lockdown began, ended up becoming a permanent resident. The staff have been absolutely amazing at making the transition easier for her and we cannot thank them enough for all they have done. In what has been a difficult time for everyone,
it is so good to know that Mum is being cared for and great to see what she is up to with their daily activity posts on the blog. Given the limitations over what the staff can do without visiting entertainment, the amount of activities they put on for the residents is also fantastic. Finally, we are very thankful for their innovative way of allowing visitors via their marquee – it has been wonderful for our family.

Reply from Scott Melville, Manager at Hallamshire

Good afternoon Sarah, many thanks for your lovely comments about the Care Home and the Staff team, we really are grateful for you taking the time to share those with us and other potential residents. I am so pleased that you are all happy with the care and support that your Mother is enjoying here at Hallamshire and that you are interacting with us and her both online and in our visitor's tent. Many thanks again and have a lovely afternoon.

I can't say enough about the care and love the staff at the Hallamshire Care Home are giving to my very special grandmother.
During the current coronavirus pandemic, she couldn't have been in a better or safer place. It's been tough not seeing her over the last 3 months while the necessary restrictions
have been in place. However, we've had very regular updates about the activities the home have been providing with photos and video messages of her looking very happy, safe and well. These have been lovely and extremely thoughtful.
On the 5th of June, my Grandmother celebrated her 98th birthday. We were delighted that the Hallamshire had just organised a fantastic way for family members to visit residents in a purpose-built double marquee. This is a very personal experience where you can really interact properly with you loved one and the staff with the added reassurance of a plastic screen.
This is such an amazing place and it's been run by amazing people. Thanks to you all.

My mum is receiving the best care for both her medical and personal care but also is involved in many social activities that she wants or is capable of.
All the staff are lovely and caring and really look after mum plus they make the families and friends visiting most welcome and actually encourage
you to take part in any of the activities on offer if you want to.
However a huge thank you must be said to everyone during COVID-19 for keeping everyone safe and well. Also for the imaginative ways they have kept everyone occupied plus the ways used to keep relatives informed. This has helped to give peace of mind to me whilst I have been unable to see mum on a regular basis during these trying times. Thank you!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.928)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.928) out of 10 for Hallamshire 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 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 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 4.928 for Hallamshire is calculated as follows: ( (244 Excellents x 5) + (19 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 263 Ratings = 4.928

  • 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 Hallamshire is based on 22 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 32 registered maximum number of service users is 6.4, which has been reached with 22 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.
