The care home is very tired and could do with a bit of modernisation. Apart from that, the care is wonderful. The decor is in need of brightening up. Better ventilation as it smells of urine.

Friendly welcoming caring staff. Clean and spacious room with delicious food and never a problem to adjust the menu to personal needs. Can't praise the staff enough from the enthusiastic entertainment manager to the efficient nurses and dedicated caring staff, day and night they have a smile for you.

My Mum has been in the home since September 2023. Was very tough for her and me at the beginning but slowly it became easier. I visit my Mum nearly every day and help make sure she eats dinner etc. I feel the staff also need to make sure she drinks plenty as I usually get there to find the same drinks
there! The staff are mainly lovely and caring but I feel over the last few months they don't seem happy as a team! Mum and I feel like it's her home now.

I feel confident that my husband is well cared for. He is bedridden, but always kept clean. The food is very good. The staff are friendly and mostly helpful. There have been occasions when items I have taken in for my husband, for example, shaving foam, and razors have disappeared and not been available
for me to use. In general, however, I am happy with his care. It would be nice if sometimes my husband could participate in the entertainment/activities as he is always left in his room. It would also be nice if management would make themselves known, as I visit daily and don't ever see them. Thank you.

Reply from Clare Sheehan, Careline Advisor at Chandlers Ford Care Home

Thank you for taking the time to write such a lovely review of the care and support at Chandlers Ford. From your comments, we note you would have preferred your husband to take part in the communal activities and that you would have wanted to see the manager more. The home manager reports having a long conversation with you on 17 September 2024 where these two points were discussed. We hope to continue providing high quality care and support to your husband. Please do not hesitate to liaise with our team on all matters, they will be happy to help.

A really nice rest home with peaceful surroundings and well lit. Car parking was easily accessible.
Dad has enjoyed a trouble free 2 and a half weeks and has been well looked after by many friendly and competent staff.
On my visits, I was assisted with where to go and found the staff were more than
willing to help out if Dad needed something.
Phoning the home was east enough and reception clean.

Mum was transferred here on discharge from hospital. She had a lovely little room which had the sunshine in the afternoon, which she always enjoyed. She was here for around four weeks until she passed. I cannot give higher praise for all the staff, nursing staff, carers, laundry, and catering, everyone
I came across was kind, patient and provided the utmost care for my mum in her final days. Treated well with full attention, care and dignity. I thank you all from the bottom of my heart for all the care and kindness, I could not have asked for anything better.

I have had a quite outstanding time here. The staff on all shifts have been so friendly and helpful and the kitchen staff will try to make what you ask for.
I could nit pick about storage/electric plug ins etc, but you cannot tailor make rooms.
Without any doubt, I give staying her an excellent mark.

I came here in October 2023 as I am completely on my own in the world and have kidney disease, type 2 diabetes and arthritis having dialysis 3 days a week at the hospital. I could not have found a better nursing home. I have a lovely room, a wonderful, loving family in my dearest carers and my darling
nurses, the very nice kitchen staff, office and entertainment staff. I am very happy here and very content.

I have visited my father at different times of the day over the last months. I have been so heartened by the level of care given to my father by all the staff at Chandlers Ford Care Home. Everyone is so supportive and kind, from the medical team, carers and entertainers to the cleaning staff. We are
so happy that Father is in such safe hands at Chandlers Ford Care Home. With thanks.

My mother had been a resident at Chandlers Ford Care Home for just a year when sadly she passed away in hospital. The staff were amazing, looking after my mother thoughtfully and with kindness. Always with a smile and a cheery word, Mum had settled into a regular routine and was comfortable in her new
home. Thank you everyone for taking care of my mother and being so welcoming and kind.

My dad is extremely well cared for. The staff do a fantastic job, even under difficult circumstances as my dad sufferers from Alzheimer's, so, not always cooperative. My mum visits every day so is able to witness the wonderful way in which they help my dad. The staff are always friendly and welcoming.
The food is excellent, and the accommodation is comfortable. I would not want my dad to be in any other care home. We are extremely fortunate that he receives such good care.

The recent change of management seems to have improved the overall standard but it is early days. There have been too many staff changes - thankfully some of the good staff are still here and so the level of care for my mum has been maintained.

Dad was only here for a few days, but the team made his last few days so comfortable - it was a huge relief to the whole family. After 45-days in hospital with no privacy or relaxation, it was a blessing to know that he could have his own space and his own things around him. The staff put themselves
out to accommodate his needs and ours as we visited him.

Current Review Score: 9.1 (9.122)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.1 (9.122) out of 10 for Chandlers Ford Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.2 out of 5 from 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 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 4.222 for Chandlers Ford Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (55 Excellents x 5) + (36 Goods x 4) + (23 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 117 Ratings = 4.222

  • 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 4.9 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Chandlers Ford Care 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 45 registered maximum number of service users is 9, which has been reached with 9 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.
