My sister became a resident in Hartcliffe Nursing Home in May 2016.
I am so happy that we choose this home, it is well kept and my sister is well looked after. She is always clean and happy. The staff and helpers are friendly, helpful and always polite. My sister cannot talk or do anything for herself,
so it is a great weight taken off my mind that she is so well looked after.

Reply from Raji Sunil, Home Manager at Hartcliffe Nursing Home

Thank you for taking the time to provide us with your feedback. We do appreciate that having a loved one in the care of others can be a worry, so we were delighted to see that the staff team at Hartcliffe have been able to reassure you that your Sister is well cared for in our home and you are able to give such an excellent review.

I visited my nan (who is a paying resident) and unfortunately, I was disappointed with the level of cleanliness and care attention shown to my nan. She just came out of a short stay in a hospital and needed around the clock care & attention, which she was not getting. When I arrived around 9:30am, I
found white powder all over the carpet in her room, along with some of her poo that was stepped into her carpet. Her bathroom was covered with poo, which was also in her slippers. It was devastating to see my nan in this condition. Staff said the mess was left by the night staff. To me, this was passing the buck. Even if it was the night staff's fault, my nan was still being neglected by staff that were currently on duty, as they obviously been in her room to give my nan her breakfast, as the empty plates were still there. They obviously decided to leave my nan, her room & her bathroom in a right state. Once I complained, they still took their time to deal with it. I was not impressed at all.

Reply from Karen Hall, Area Manager at Hartcliffe Nursing Home

Since mum has been at Hartcliffe Nursing Home her health has improved, mum is less anxious and much more settled. She eats better and has quality of life. Staff understand her and provide good care. There are activities if she wishes to do. They work very hard and long hours. I feel mum is safe and
well looked after. I see her 4 days a week but can relax on the other days, she is in safe hands.

The team at Hartcliffe are all very friendly and very helpful. The food is first class and plentiful to the extent my friend is starting to put weight on which is a good thing. The staff give a good professional approach while keeping the friendly but respectful attitude. There are lots of activities
going on both in and out of the home.

Reply from Raji Sunil, Home Manager at Hartcliffe Nursing Home

My Dad moved to the care home in February this year. He has settled in really well thanks to the caring and friendly staff. The food is really good quality and the home is kept clean and tidy. Nothing is too much trouble when you ask for things and the staff have also been very supportive to me and
my family when we decided to move my Dad there. It wasn't an easy time for any of us and we've been made to feel very welcome every time we come to visit.

Reply from Raji Sunil, Home Manager at Hartcliffe Nursing Home

The management team fully appreciate you taking the time to give them your feedback. We do understand how difficult it can be when making a decision to move a loved one into full time care. We were so pleased to see that the team have gone a long way to making this somewhat easier. Thank you for your positive comments.

Mum found herself at Hartcliffe by accident. Quite literally! After having a nasty fall whilst living on her own she was sent for rehab through the NHS. It became apparent that Mum would no longer be able to live on her own, and as a family, we were given enormous support by the whole team at Hartcliffe
to enable Mum to stay. We cannot praise the staff enough in making Mum feel welcome and she has gone from not wanting to enter a Home to wanting to stay at Hartcliffe. All the staff from Manager to Maintenance know Mum by name and will always have time to stop and talk to any of us. I would have no hesitation in recommending Hartcliffe Nursing Home. Indeed I have already done so!

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.578)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.578) out of 10 for Hartcliffe Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 30 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 4.578 for Hartcliffe Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (251 Excellents x 5) + (76 Goods x 4) + (11 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) + (11 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 351 Ratings = 4.578

  • 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 Hartcliffe Nursing 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 66 registered maximum number of service users is 13.2, 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.
