Our mother moved into Cherry Hinton Care Home in December as she needed nursing care. This is her third care home and we are blown away by her care. The staff are kind, enthusiastic, efficient and caring. I cannot fault them in any area. The nursing staff, in particular, have been amazing, always keeping
us informed and constantly monitoring our mother's care. I could not recommend this home highly enough!

My mother has been here for over two years, she is 94 and was very happy to move here as she wanted the company and had been falling at home and outside.
Up until recently, she has been mobile with a frame. She is very happy here. It is a great place, wonderful staff and activities. I have felt reassured
that Mum is being very well looked after. Thank you.

My mother was discharged from hospital and into Cherry Hinton Care Home on a discharge to assess. She has been very happy and comfortable throughout her stay. All staff are polite and professional and, as a family, we are all at ease that Mum is being cared for 24 hours a day. I would recommend this
care home.

A high standard of care, plenty of nurses and all very friendly. Everything is well-organised. Very easy to contact nurses. Always ready to help. Very good care for the individual. Very good communication by email. Very open to concerns and quick to do something about it. Some nurses needed a bit of
help with the hearing aids. Altogether, a very good care home.

My father has been resident in this care home for the last 15 months after having a life-changing stroke and a long hospital stay. The staff working here are simply amazing; they go above and beyond to support the residents. My father has been treated with such kindness, care and understanding. He has
made great progress while here. The facilities are excellent. The rooms are spacious, spotlessly clean and have en-suite facilities. The communal kitchen-diner is a nice relaxing social space. The food is excellent. As a health care worker in the NHS myself, l cannot find any fault with this place. l have peace of mind knowing that my dad is happy in this home and he is being well looked after.

Reply from Amber Christou, Business Development Manager at Cherry Hinton Care Home

Care and consideration for my mother and our visiting family were very good. We felt welcome at any time of day which put our minds at ease.
The feel and appearance of the home were clean and comfortable.
The entertainment team encouraged Mum to join in with various activities where she was able
but without pressure to do so.
The food and drink were readily offered and of a good standard, I would have liked to see more variety of fresh salad/vegetables available.
The kitchen/dining room and lounges were always very clean, warm and welcoming and I was pleased that my mum was encouraged to join other residents at mealtimes. The lovely gardens made this care home just right for us and I'll always feel grateful for the view Mum had from her window.
Sadly, my mum is no longer with us but I am glad that we chose Cherry Hinton Care Home for her, I felt reassured to know she was safe and well looked after in our absence and my family and I always felt welcome, which was so comforting.

My dad was only with you for four days.
Right from the beginning when we spoke to the community development manager and looked around, we felt it would be just the right place for him as it has such a calm and homely feel.
When we arrived ahead of Dad we were warmly greeted by a member of staff
and were able to get his room ready for him - which was to a very high standard of cleanliness and finish. We were very soon looked after by two other members of staff who made sure Dad settled in well.
Another member of staff was very helpful and knowledgeable about my dad's care and treated us so kindly, not forgetting our names or my sister's. We felt as well cared for as Dad.
We were reassured by the regular checks made on patients day and night and the level of comfort Dad was given during his stay. My husband and I were also so well looked after during our visits, being offered lovely fresh food, drinks and snacks.
We were contacted by staff in good time for us to travel to be with Dad when needed and we are so grateful for this.
Thank you all.

My grandmother took residency at Cherry Hinton Care Home for a short amount of time after having surgery.
The care she received was wonderful and she was extremely happy to live there for the final chapter of her life.
Her room was spacious and kept clean and tidy.
She really enjoyed the variety
of activities and loved the trip to the local garden centre with the well-being team.
Towards the end of her life, we were really impressed with the level of care she received. She seemed very comfortable and peaceful.
The management team at Cherry Hinton were very helpful and super friendly.
A great place to live and gave us all utter peace of mind knowing my grandmother was cared for to a very high standard.
Thank you, everyone!

Reply from Shelly Prakash, Home Manager at Cherry Hinton Care Home

Thank you so much for your feedback, it is so greatly appreciated. It was so lovely getting to know your grandmother in the short while she was with us at the home. With our range of activities we have at the home means that there is enough for the residents to do during the day alongside our dedicated volunteers and well-being team. The garden is a big bonus as well, allowing for the residents and family members to enjoy during the summer months. Thanks again for taking the time to review our beautiful home. It is greatly appreciated.

My lovely mother-in-law has been residing at Cherry Hinton Care Home for almost two weeks. During this time we have been very impressed with the quality of care and attentiveness given by the team. We have been regularly informed of my mother-in-law's progress and are pleasantly surprised that carers
remember us when we visit. The call from the well-being team to gather non-medical information about my mother-in-law makes us feel that she will be treated with dignity and genuine interest. We are comforted that my mother-in-law is being well cared for in her final days.

My wife has been a resident since July. Settled in very quickly - first as a short-term care resident then as a long-term resident in September. Initially occupying a smaller single room and later a larger room with an ensuite shower. Never been bored or left for long with nothing to do. She has Parkinson's
disease which has caused challenges for staff which they have overcome cheerfully and competently.

Reply from Shelly Prakash, Home Manager at Cherry Hinton Care Home

Thank you so much for your feedback, it has been so lovely getting to know you both over the last few months. We are very lucky to have a large amount of volunteers who work alongside our well-being team to ensure we can offer both large group activities and 1:1 activities on a personal level. There is always something for the residents to do here at the home, seven days a week. Thank you so much for your feedback, it is greatly appreciated.

I am relieved and encouraged to see my husband cared for in the way the staff do here. There is a buzz to the place of positivity and care both for my husband and me too. He enjoys the food, interacting with the staff and the view into the gardens, to name but a few. The open visiting is a measure I
think, I think, of the confidence with which they know the place is run. Thank you.

Thank you so much for your feedback, it really is appreciated. It's been so lovely getting to know both your husband and yourself over the last four months. He is a pleasure to have at the home. We are very lucky to have such a tranquil garden with some of our rooms overlooking this lovely space and where our residents can enjoy watching the wildlife that lives in our garden. Thanks again and look forward to seeing you soon!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.899)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.899) out of 10 for Cherry Hinton 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 43 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 43 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 4.899 for Cherry Hinton Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (459 Excellents x 5) + (37 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 503 Ratings = 4.899

  • 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 Cherry Hinton Care Home is based on 43 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 43 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.
