Whenever I called on the tablet to speak to my mum over lockdown she was always happy and smiling. When I visited her the other day she was pleased to see me and she told me she was happy.
The carers and activity staff keep me updated, and the activity staff sent a lovely Easter card from my mum with
a picture of her on it. It was lovely. Well done.

Reply from Stella Roberts, General Manager at Barchester Paternoster House Care Home

I came to visit my dad as he had recently moved from another care home to Paternoster, and the staff that greeted me at the front entrance and showed me to my dad's room were very welcoming and friendly. I couldn’t wish for better staff to be looking after my dad. The atmosphere in the home was very
warm, caring and absolutely spotless.
I also met the new manager, who I must say, was absolutely outstanding, so very helpful.
I personally couldn’t ask for a better manager to be running this home.
I will certainly be recommending this care home to friends and so on.


Thank you so much to all staff and manager for making my dad comfortable and caring for his every need.

Firstly, if you have a relative/friend in The Barchester Paternoster care home in Waltham Abbey, you will be pleasantly surprised by the caring, kindness and professionalism of the staff. On calling daily to speak to my father, I was treated with respect and got to speak to my father, every time.
I
have to mention the one person that struck me as one of the most professional and kindest people I have met, during my father's time in the care home, the manager. She went above and beyond on my visit to the home, to not only make me, as the visitor comfortable, but also the genuine care she had towards my father. I got to witness this first hand. She completely understood, the mental health impact, on not only the visitor, on seeing their loved one, but also the resident's mental health too. The manager seemed to have a built-in understanding of the consequence, this pandemic has had on us all. I could tell straight away, on meeting her, that the care for her residents was paramount.

Reply from Stella Roberts, General Manager at Barchester Paternoster House Care Home

Thank you for this wonderful review, it really is my absolute focus for us to continue to provide the very best, exceptional care at our home for all our residents care needs; nursing, senior care needs; dementia, residential, respite and palliative care.

After 2 and a half months of my dad being in hospitals and a care home (assessment unit), eventually, he was put into Paternoster care home. He spent almost 6 weeks there on end of life care and it was the 1st time in months that he wasn't talking about coming home almost every day. I know he really
liked it there and we were all really happy with the care that he received until the day he passed. Obviously, things have been different due to covid and not being able to visit but we were given the chance to see him in his last couple of days which we were really grateful for. All the staff were fantastic. All were very polite and helpful and we can not thank them enough for the amazing work that they do and the wonderful way they looked after my dad right up until the end. I would highly recommend this care home. They are great.

The staff at Paternoster are caring, friendly and very professional. My Partner has been in the home for nearly 3 years now and is very settled and well cared for. The lockdown has been particularly hard for both of us but Paternoster has been wonderful and nothing has been too much trouble in making
the window visits as nice as possible for everyone. Although I would normally visit every evening I have no worries that my partner is being well looked after during this difficult time. I would like to thank all the staff at Paternoster but in particular the staff on Memory Lane for all the care and hard work they provide every day for the residents to feel safe and well cared for.

I have been really impressed by the dedication and hard work of the OT staff during COVID. My elderly mother has been supported in many ways to ensure that she is still able to visit my father, and whilst COVID has made visits challenging, my mother has been helped to understand the changes and also
enabled to have time with my father which is important for both of them. Communication from the OT staff has been good, and I feel that my father is being supported.

Considering we are in lockdown, the care of my father is a priority. The only thing I would like to see is that we are allowed visits to the rooms. The staff have taken every precaution to keep him safe, but it's frustrating sitting outside. But the way you keep him safe is excellent; everything is
done to a high standard. Staff are excellent and friendly.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.884)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.884) out of 10 for Barchester Paternoster House 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 29 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 29 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 4.884 for Barchester Paternoster House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (305 Excellents x 5) + (25 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 337 Ratings = 4.884

  • 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 Barchester Paternoster House Care Home is based on 29 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 94 registered maximum number of service users is 18.8, which has been reached with 29 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.
