My dad was diagnosed with widespread cancer and given 4-6 weeks to live. I stayed with him for 7 days and nights and I never went home, the staff looked after me and dad like we were family, they were fantastic. Dad died after 10 days. The home management were two lovely ladies and a lot of the staff
came to dads funeral. I will never be able to thank them enough.

In my opinion, Heartlands Care Home is an outstanding facility and I would highly recommend it to other service users.
The Care Home is extremely well managed, creating a safe friendly environment for residents, staff and their families.
Staff are exceptionally kind and caring and resolve any issues
promptly and efficiently and their dedication and devotion to ensuring that residents are happy, active and enjoying life is magnificent.
The home offers a range of stimulating and creative activities during the day and all areas are clean and tidy.
The care given to my mother has dramatically improved her mental health and I have no doubt that being at Heartlands has extended her life.

Staff are very caring and after only two weeks have built up a good relationship with mum. Mum enjoys the smart environment and the activities mum no longer calls me for help as the staff are able to meet her needs.

After making the difficult decision for mom to go into a care home we set out to find one to meet her needs.
From the moment we walked in to look at the home we knew this is the place for mom
An Administrator assisted us with all the information and paperwork to get mom moved from hospital to the
home.
The manager sat down with us as a family and reassured us that mom would be cared for and her complex needs would be met.
All the staff are friendly and happy on mom's arrival.
We can see the difference in mom, she's happy, content and her appetite is back, down to the amazing kitchen staff.
One of the nurses, in particular, is clearly in the job for the love of the patients. Everyone loves him.
We are truly lucky to have found this beautiful home.

My mother is a resident of Heartlands Care Home. She seems to be quite settled and happy. We believe she gets adequate care and attention to her care and needs. The home is very well lead by management and the staff who are always pleasant and helpful when we visit. We get regular updates and reviews
on my mothers care. I feel this reflects on staff and management working as a team.

Whilst the new building is outstanding, unfortunately, the same staff remain from the old building. Most of whom are just purely in place to earn a wage without any concern to residents' needs no matter how simple - seems to be too much hassle. My mother had 3 seperate incidents which could have been
avoided by staff simply doing their job however I highly commend both care assistants who are outstanding staff. Thank you from my mom and family. You are amazing a true credit.

The review I felt went very well, very informative and caring. Help would be on hand as and when needed. I thought the people giving the review were showing great interest and very obliging. I find the staff very caring and I feel I can go and ask if I need to know anything.

I was very happy to find this home for my mum. It is a very homely place. The staff made you feel very welcome. I was happy with the care my mother received there. All the people that were residents seemed happy to be there. At the end of her life, my Mum was treated with dignity and respect. There
were also lots of activities for the people to do there.

Because the home is in the transition from old to new at the moment. Some of the answers (i.e state of rooms etc) will not be a true reflection of existing facilities. But overall, staff and carers attitudes are excellent and give you great peace of mind about residents comfort and dignity.

Staff members are pleasant and caring and interact positively with residents. Although the home is undergoing extensive building work at present good standards of care are still being met. Staff members are approachable and will help with any enquiry we may have. My mother has and will I am sure, continue
to receive a high standard of care.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.770)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.770) out of 10 for Heartlands Care & Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 25 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 24 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 4.770 for Heartlands Care & Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (255 Excellents x 5) + (22 Goods x 4) + (14 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) + (3 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 296 Ratings = 4.77

  • 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 Heartlands Care & Nursing Home is based on 24 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 24 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.

Job Title: Activities and Well-being Coordinator

Joined: 2005

I am Activities & Well-being Coordinator at Heartlands so together with my colleague we complete two group activities per day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. In between these times I spend time with residents one on one, we have quite a few residents that are unable to take part in group activities so I like to ensure they are not isolated and feel part of our family. I plan future events and activities and I work closely with our CRM to go through ideas. Because I have a background in care I also assist with self-care and mealtimes.
I love my job because I feel that I can contribute towards improving the quality of life for our residents, making them smile is so rewarding. Tracy lives locally, has 3 children and loves her job. The best part of the job is the ‘butterfly moments’, precious moments with residents. I like getting residents together and seeing how socialising can change the mood for residents making them feel more positive and upbeat.
I am also a Dignity Champion for Heartlands Care Home and a Dementia Friend.
I am working towards my Diploma in Care which I will complete in July 2019.
