  • Midhurst Road Residential Home, Sheffield
Midhurst has a dedicated staff team who treat residents like family, ensuring they receive the best care. The staff are passionate about looking after people, and it shows in the positive feedback they receive from District Nurses and GPs, who refer people to Midhurst because of its reputation for excellent care.

The 54 en-suite bedrooms offer views of the beautiful gardens and countryside, and communal areas are spacious and comfortable, with 60-inch TVs and bay windows. There is also a purpose-built conservatory with a piano for residents to enjoy. Regular entertainment and physical activities, such as music and movement sessions, help keep residents engaged and active.

The food at Midhurst is home-cooked and varied, with three cooks catering to different dietary needs. They hold birthday parties and celebrations in the conservatory, and the senior cook regularly checks in with residents to ensure they’re happy with their meals. Snacks and drinks are available throughout the day, and residents can even keep their own beer in their rooms.

There’s always something happening at Midhurst—whether it’s baking, quizzes, gardening, or trips to local attractions like Meadowhall or the countryside. They also have a hairdresser visit once a week.

The team understand that families may feel worried when leaving a loved one in care, but they reassure them that their family member will always be well looked after. Visitors are welcome at any time, with no restrictions. The staff are here 24/7, offering consistency and support, while also respecting residents' privacy.

Midhurst is clean, fresh, and welcoming and the team pride themselves on creating a warm, comfortable home where residents feel cared for and supported.

As a retired Vicar I have visited a great number of residential homes. Midhurst Road is without doubt one of the very best. Clean and welcoming providing high quality caring service to residents. My mother-in-law has been made to feel part of a loving and caring extended family.

I would like to say that since my mum moved into Midhurst Residential Care Home that the staff have gone above and beyond to help her settle in and made sure she feels safe and content in her new surroundings. The staff were amazing when she wasn't feeling very well and managed to get the doctor out
and she got the medication she needed straight away and was feeling much better within a couple of days. The staff have all been very helpful and are willing to answer any queries and questions we had. The staff are hard-working and have made the home look beautiful with Christmas decorations. My mum has improved her mobility since she came to this home and she loves to chat to staff and other residents. We have nothing but praise for all the staff who care for my mum and to the rest of the staff who work there.

Reply from Amelia Charlesworth, PA to CEO at Midhurst Road Residential Home

My 98-year-old Nan has lived here for many years now and they take such good care of her, it was her birthday a few days ago but I couldn’t see her due to not being well but the staff sent me a picture of her having a nice time at her tea party, even through Covid not being able to visit we knew she
was in great hands, she always looks well cared for and well fed. I enjoy seeing the pictures of her joining in with the activities, all the care staff are amazing but one particular lady is a diamond! She used to work nights but it’s now in the laundry, she always checks on my Nan she’s great.

Reply from Amelia Charlesworth, PA to CEO at Midhurst Road Residential Home

Mum moved into Midhurst 21 February, from the start the staff were so helpful and kind, allowing us to personalise her room with her own bits of furniture, the kitchen staff were so helpful, but Mum was a picky eater and if the menu wasn't to Mums liking they would cook her something that she did like.

All the staff were kind and respectful towards Mum.
Mum suffered from a few falls whilst in the care home, because she was stubborn and wouldn't wait or ask for help but the staff always got her back on her feet again and she was so very well looked after.
When Mum suffered a broken shoulder the staff and management were so very kind, making sure Mum was still included and not left in her room on her own, and when Mum came to the end of her life they looked after myself and my hubby, making sure we ate and had drinks, I can't praise the staff enough and thank you just does not seem enough for the care we all received.

Reply from Amelia Charlesworth, PA to CEO at Midhurst Road Residential Home

Thank you so much for sharing your experience with Mum's time at Midhurst Road. It warms our hearts to hear about the exceptional care and kindness she received from the staff. It's evident that they went above and beyond to make your mum feel comfortable and well looked after.
We truly appreciate your gratitude and are touched by the efforts of the staff and management, especially during challenging moments. Your kind words mean a lot to us.

My mom was a permanent resident from March 2019 until the day she died. Words cannot explain how wonderful this care home is. The staff are absolutely amazing, treating the residents and their families with so much respect and compassion. From day on, my mum was completely settled and comfortable. The
care she received was outstanding, I can't praise them enough. The day she died, the staff were as upset as her family was which is a testament to the care, love and support they give. Nothing was too much trouble. This care home deserves ten stars! My mum spent the last four and a half years of her life in the most wonderful place. As a family, we are so very grateful.

Reply from Amelia Charlesworth, PA to CEO at Midhurst Road Residential Home

We're so deeply moved by your heartfelt words expressing gratitude for the care your mum received at Midhurst Road. Your feedback means the world to us and it serves as a poignant reminder of the impact we can have on the lives of those entrusted to our care.
I want to extend my sincere condolences for the loss of your mum. It is truly heartening to know that she found comfort, care and a sense of belonging during her time with us. The dedication and compassion of our staff are integral to the quality of care we aim to provide and I am thrilled to hear that they made such a positive difference in your mum's life.
I will be sure to share your praise with our entire team as it is their tireless efforts and unwavering dedication that make our care home the special place you describe. We are honoured to have been a part of your mum's life and we are grateful for the trust and confidence your family placed in us.

I have been in Midhurst Road Residential Home. I am aware that this is a review, not a complaints procedure, however as you have the option for rating very poor/poor, I feel it apt to elaborate.
Meals - poor presentation and choice.
Staff - some members are pleasant and helpful, others are discourteous
and rude. I am disabled and can walk short distances, only with a walking frame. Other than meals, I do not see staff.
Laundry - when it is returned, often it is clothing belonging to others even though labelled.
I am a resident who pays for my care and feel strongly I am not getting value for money.

Reply from Amelia Charlesworth, PA to CEO at Midhurst Road Residential Home

Thank you for taking the time to share your concerns with us and I apologise that you are not happy with the service you are receiving at Midhurst Road.
I have passed this onto our Care & Operation Director and a member of the Quality Team will be in touch to discuss your concerns further and help to resolve the issues you have raised.

We can only give high praise to this care home.
Right from the first enquiry, the staff were so helpful. We were put at ease from the beginning.
My aunt was treated as an individual, and her needs both physical and emotional were supported.
The staff group from domestic staff, carers and the management
team were all respectful at all times.
My auntie had just 11 months at Midhurst; she was happy and safe there.
The home is so lovely and clean (no nasty smells).
The environment is relaxed and inviting.
The decor is homely and pleasant.
The staff group go beyond their duties to care for and support the residents.
We have been massively appreciative of all that they have done.
The management should be proud of the staff group they have.
100% first class. Thank you.

I went to see my great-grandmother in August of 2022, and I can't thank the carers enough for taking such great care of her. I have only been about once or twice personally due to Covid, but during both visits, the staff have always been super welcoming and really nice.

My mum lived at Midhurst care home for approximately three and a half years. During her stay, she was treated with the utmost respect and compassion by all your dedicated and professional staff. Mum died on 10th June, nothing was too much trouble for your caring staff during her stay, from her first
day until her later and last day. May I thank all concerned for her welfare and well-being.
Yours faithfully.

I am a church minister who used to go into Midhurst way before Covid to do user friendly church services.
These were always received well and encouraged.
During Covid our visits have been sparce although we have kept links with the home and they have with us, keeping us well informed of the many
activities that they do with all resident's.
On our visits there is always a friendly, happy atmosphere and the residents treated with dignity and always a nice smell of food.
The residents are always clean, well dressed and very happy. Joining in with the services and some of the staff joining us too.
Mothering Sunday we, as a church delivered flowers and chocolates, and these were lovingly recieved by staff and residents.
They activity team do keep them occupied in a lovely way.

All the staff have been incredible throughout this pandemic, as a family, we could not have wished for better care and communication. We, as a family, have felt our Mum has received an outstanding level of care and compassion. It has been a very difficult time for care homes, but we have had confidence
in all the staff team. A massive thank you to you all.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.360)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.360) out of 10 for Midhurst Road Residential Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 9 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 4.627 for Midhurst Road Residential Home is calculated as follows: ( (98 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (6 Poors x 2) + (3 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 118 Ratings = 4.627

  • 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 4.733 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Midhurst Road Residential Home is based on 9 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 = 3.9

    • 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 54 registered maximum number of service users is 10.8. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 10.8 = 0.833

  • 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.
