My Mum was a resident in the dementia unit for 17 months. During this time we witnessed and dedication, compassion, caring, friendly manner the staff showed to each resident. My Mum was very happy during her stay. It is a place with high standards of cleanliness. I couldn't have wished for a better
home to take care of my Mum. The staff work extremely hard and are so kind and patient. They gave our family support at the end of Mum's life, making a traumatic time easier.

My mum was a resident Meaux House and all the time she was there the staff couldn't have been more helpful. They were always polite and willing to explain/answer any questions or queries we had. We always found my mum clean and tidy and in good health, she enjoyed chatting with other residents and made
a couple of close friends. From my mum leaving the hospital not eating or speaking she left Salthouse Haven eating 3 meals a day and speech improved. We would certainly recommend Salthouse Haven to family and friends.

Since my mother has been at the home, she has settled very quickly and come on leaps and bounds.
She has been looked after extremely well.
She is kept clean, changed regularly and fed very well.
I have found the staff to be very helpful, friendly, supportive and professional.
I am very happy that
my mum is here.

My mam went in to Salthouse Haven in Bilton House in January 2018. The care my mam received was excellent. The staff were amazing. Sadly my mam ended up on palliative care and passed away in Salthouse Haven but the staff made her as comfortable as possible and I thank them.

Both the admin team and the care team were extremely helpful and caring from before my aunt took up residence. This friendly care continued until after my aunt sadly passed away. Very homely environment. Staff that really care.

When Bilton Lodge is fully staffed I.e. Four staff and a senior, it runs quite well with no problems. Occasionally one staff member is sent to replace absent staff on other lodges. When this happens the lounge area can be left unattended for 5 to 15 minutes, this can cause stress to patients in wheelchairs
or seated who cannot move away from an occasionally disruptive patient.

Reply from Clare Sheehan, Careline Advisor at Saltshouse Haven Care Home

Thank you for your review; we value all feedback as this helps us to improve our service where required. The happiness and well-being of all our Residents are of paramount importance to us. Unfortunately, staff will call in ill occasionally at short notice which does not give the home adequate time to arrange for immediate cover. When this occurs we will look to utilise our existing staff in the home and use their skill mix accordingly to support all lodges whilst we seek cover. I appreciate this is not ideal but it does work well for immediate support until covering staff can come into the home.

Myself and my family cannot thank the care home enough for the support they have given us since my grandad came into Saltshouse Haven. The care my grandad has received has been amazing. Thank you to all staff and especially on Meaux Lodge.

During my dad's time at Saltshouse Haven, he was given the utmost care and attention. All the staff were very kind and wonderful. During his final moments, I found the girls to be utterly compassionate and sympathetic to the situation. I can't praise them enough.
Thank you for all your hard work.

Saltshouse Haven Care Home is the best home we've encountered. Unfortunately, we've had experience of homes that fall well below standard. We liked the way the home was divided into lodges making small communities rather than having one huge lounge for everyone. The gardens make it a lovely setting.
The home is clean and fairly fresh, which is hard to achieve when dealing with the elderly and disabled.
Nurses were compassionate and staff were trying their best to look after everyone. Food was appetising. Staff from management to carers were always busy, no one lounging about like in some homes.

We have been using this service for the last two years. At first, we were unsure of the care as some of the staff were a bit off hand and made us feel uncomfortable asking questions. Then, my Mum was moved and it was a completely different atmosphere. The staff were very caring and made us feel at home
and you could ask any questions. If there were any concerns someone would always ring us. Lots of activities and fun days which we were willing to help with. We lost our Mum in November but all the staff were wonderful to the very end. Thank you all.

Thank you for your review. We are thankful that your Mum eventually settled into Saltshouse Haven and was made to feel at home along with all the family.

I cannot thank the carers, lodge manager and housekeepers enough. My friend moved in last year after a very severe stroke. She is cared for with kindness and dignity.
This is a very busy care home but nothing is too much trouble for the staff. Thank you all.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.307)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.307) out of 10 for Saltshouse Haven Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 24 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 23 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 4.540 for Saltshouse Haven Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (181 Excellents x 5) + (79 Goods x 4) + (24 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 285 Ratings = 4.54

  • 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 4.767 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Saltshouse Haven Care Home is based on 23 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 150 registered maximum number of service users is 30. 23 Positive Reviews ÷ 30 = 0.767

  • 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.
