My mother has been a resident here for 18 months and the team are fantastic. After a few initial concerns that were rectified quickly, we are very happy with the level of care that my mother is receiving.
The manager particularly goes above and beyond in all areas and is one of the most caring and
empathetic people I've ever met. We have total peace of mind that my mother is being cared for and, just as importantly, respected, by all of the team at Hawthorn Court.
The home is flexible on visiting, and during inevitable outbreaks of Covid the safeguarding that's in place installs confidence that the welfare of the residents is of the utmost importance.
Whether it's on the phone or when visiting, there is always someone on hand to speak to or ask questions.

Reply from Bethan Evans, CEO at Hawthorn Court

We are very happy with the care my Dad receives at Hawthorn Court, he’s been residing there for 12 months now due to Alzheimer’s.
It’s a small care home so it feels homely and intimate. My dad is very well looked after by all the staff there. They are vigilant when my dad is poorly and keep us informed
if there are any concerns. We feel confident he is safe and we are welcome at any time there to see my dad.

Reply from Bethan Evans, CEO at Hawthorn Court

Thank you so much for taking the time to write this review - and for your kind words. It is our pleasure to support Dad and I am pleased to see that you are welcomed when you visit the Home. I will share your review with the Manager and her team as they will be delighted to hear this.

Wanted to thank you for looking after my wife’s mother.
She passed away on the 4th of September this year and could not have received better care during her stay there.
The staff could not have been more helpful and caring to both my mother-in-law and our family.
All the staff were great but one
member of staff, in particular, guided us through this most difficult time and we shall be forever grateful.

Reply from Bethan Evans, Managing Director at Hawthorn Court

Thank you so much for your lovely review and your kind words; which is much appreciated. It was our pleasure to be able to support this lady and yourselves as family members, at this very difficult time. We will share this feedback with our staff, as we thank them on your behalf.

From the first meeting with the Manager, she listened and understood our father’s needs and empathised. The family felt they could ask anything and she gave us so much of her time. There was flexibility on the selection of a room. We received advice on setting up the room and excellent service from
the maintenance man. He was so willing and helpful. The staff welcomed our father and all his children. He was well cared for and the staff were sensitive to his privacy and independence. He enjoyed all the meals and was allowed to choose his seat both in the Dining Room and the Lounge. Excellent communication was maintained with the family, especially with the challenges of Covid. The family were pleased with how quickly our father settled. There was flexibility on visits and we were made to feel comfortable with him. When our father’s health deteriorated, the staff gave their all, managing his care; taking advice from doctors and paramedics; constantly keeping the family informed.

My Mum has been resident at Hawthorn Court since December 2019. She has settled in really well and has been looked after by the staff. They are all very caring and friendly and great with the residents and their families. Mum loves the home-cooked food and the home is spotlessly clean. Would definitely
recommend.

I am pleased with the care given to my mum. She has gained weight since being here and looks well. There are activities and outings which my mother enjoys in the moment. I would definitely recommend the home to other people in the same circumstances and I have.

Very caring staff. They took great interest in Mum and were very kind and considerate. The manager stayed with Mum for several hours after she should have finished work to make Mum feel settled. I cannot praise the staff at Hawthorn Court enough. Excellent food, home cooked and healthy and freshly baked
cakes available regularly.

You can't fault the place, especially the staff. It's incredibly friendly and welcoming and every resident is well looked after. I wouldn't want anything but the best care for my nan and that's what she receives here. All of the carers are very engaging and it always seems like a happy place.

It was a traumatic time for my brother and I. The manager and staff couldn't have been kinder to my mother for which we are both very grateful.
My mother has settled in and now calls Hawthorn Court home which brings us to a very happy situation to be in. The manager and staff are very kind people.

Considering that my mother has only been at Hawthorn Court for just over 2 weeks she has made friends, loves the bedroom, gets on well with staff, enjoys the food.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Hawthorn Court to friends and family.

Current Review Score: 9.0 (8.995)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.0 (8.995) out of 10 for Hawthorn Court 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 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.2 out of 5 from 4 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 4.787 for Hawthorn Court is calculated as follows: ( (39 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 47 Ratings = 4.787

  • 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 4.208 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Hawthorn Court is based on 4 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 = 3.375

    • 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 24 registered maximum number of service users is 4.8. 4 Positive Reviews ÷ 4.8 = 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.
