My father has been in The Highgate for 10 months. He has been welcomed into The Highgate family and has received exemplary care. A stable team of carers and nurses means they have got to know my father well and have been able to adapt their care as he has become more frail. This personalised care is
the mark of The Highgate. Communication between the home and our family has been excellent. Regular GP visits to the home make both regular and one-off medical interventions very straightforward. I am relieved that my father is in such safe hands.

Reply from Fran Donno, Customer Service Adviser at The Highgate Care Home

Thank you for taking the time to leave us your kind words. It is wonderful to hear that you feel so relieved and at ease with your Father in our care. We are pleased to hear that the communication between yourself and The Highgate has been brilliant and that your Father is in safe hands. Please let us know if there is anything we can do to make your Father's stay as comfortable as possible.

The Highgate Nursing Home is run by an amazing team of managers (including the area manager), carers and staff (especially the night carers and night nurses). The managers are working so hard to make sure everyone is safe here. Staff are supportive and approachable. The atmosphere is professional and
calm and the carers are great and they are lovely carers. The new activity manager has joined the team and has already started lots of good work for the residents. Nurses all caring. Also special thanks to the staff for making sure the home is safe all the time. Really appreciate it. Due to confidentially, I could not include names, but if I could I would mention lots of names here.

Dear S, thank you so much for your kind words and positive review! We truly appreciate your support and are thrilled to hear you had a great experience. Your feedback means the world to us and motivates our team to keep delivering the best service possible.

The staff at the Highgate Care Home should be very proud of themselves and the service they provide. They are professional, compassionate, understanding and welcoming, they make you feel like you are part of the team/family that works there. For the whole time, my brother was at the home he was treated
with dignity and compassion and there was a sense of real care with the staff taking a keen interest in knowing the people they were looking after. The staff kept us informed on my brother's care plan and advised us at all times of changes, we always knew what was happening. I can honestly say that I have never met such a caring group of people who conducted themselves with such professionalism and compassion and I can't thank them enough, what a team.

My father had been struggling to live at home and he had several falls and ended up in hospital for 3 months. He was unable to return home as he needed 24-hour supervision and nursing care. Since being at The Highgate Care Home I have seen a remarkable improvement in his well-being and his anxiety has
greatly reduced. In my conversations with my father, he often tells me how much the care staff have helped him and shown him nothing but kindness. I would like to thank the manager and his team for all their understanding and empathy in caring for my father.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

My brother - a survivor of several strokes - has only been in Highgate for two weeks, and we can all already see a huge difference in his apparent state of mind and in how clean and presentable he invariably is. He looks much happier, and his engagement with the staff is very positive and promising.
Everybody is very friendly and supportive, yet reassuringly strict with residents' care protocols. Recently, I have contacted them to arrange an upcoming birthday do and was blown away by the offer of an in-house birthday cake, decorations, crockery and glassware and generally the whole-hearted intention to do everything possible to make it a very special day for my brother. It means so much to have this kind of peace of mind.

I am grieving for my recently dead father and on Saturday night one of the two-night nurses, who already knows that my father has died because I have told her 8 times.
She was very insensitive in my opinion and told me to cheer up. Something that I wouldn't tell anyone to do ever.

Reply from David Mclean, Customer Service Adviser at The Highgate Care Home

We are sorry for the loss of your father and having spoken to the nurses on shift, they are sorry that they made you feel this way however, they didn't mean for the disrespect and wanted you to know that they are here to support you.

This is an excellent care home. Very spacious and clean, beautiful gardens and overall a very pleasant ambience. My wife has received excellent care from the management, nurses and carers. We could not have hoped for better. I have not seen activities as my wife has not been able to participate, but
they appear to be good. My wife is in the home with costs paid by NHS continuing healthcare, so I have no rating for value for money.

My husband needed urgent discharge from hospital, and The Highgate Care Home gave him a lovely home, a room with a view over gardens, and all the care he needed to recover from bed sores received in the hospital and have given him a pressure releasing mattress. Because he had suffered a severe stroke,
he is fed through a peg direct into his stomach, all very professionally done by the nurses and carers. Thank you.

I was so impressed by the quality of care. The staff were kind, warm, helpful, efficient and professional. It was a major component in my post-operative recovery. Thank you to all who were part of the team. The kitchens were very accommodating and I ate well, thank you. The night staff were always responsive
in giving me pain medication. Thank you, I would be happy to stay again. There are always things that could be improved, some people came into my room without being introduced, but I managed. The cleaning in my room and bathroom was not every day, but I managed. The bed was not right for my hip pain, but I managed. The cupboards and drawers were stained, but I managed. I know how hard it is to maintain a property, so I am not complaining. Once again, thanks to all.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.858)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.858) out of 10 for The Highgate Care Home 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 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 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 4.858 for The Highgate Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (142 Excellents x 5) + (17 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 162 Ratings = 4.858

  • 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 Highgate Care Home is based on 14 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 55 registered maximum number of service users is 11, which has been reached with 14 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.
