My Mam has been in Evergreens since February 2022. Her move there wasn't planned but circumstances dictated she couldn't stay at home. It hasn't been an easy journey to get her settled but we've had good support from the staff and manager.


The staff definitely know my Mams needs which are at times

challenging but they deal with it well and in a very caring manner.


I feel confident my Mam is getting looked after well and feel quite confident to bring up issues as I feel necessary. I am told regularly my Mam is 'resident of day' and is there anything I want added to the careplan however I rarely do as these issues are usually dealt with when I raise them anyway.


The staff also get to know family members and are very friendly to us as a family.


There have been times when I've needed to escalate things which I have done by contacting the manager direct. I do this with confidence knowing he will deal with it and its always sorted quickly.


Reply from Honor Keatley, Group Business Development Director at The Evergreens Care Centre

Thank you so much for sharing you and your Mam's experience of The Evergreens. It's good to read how well you feel supported by the staff and management.It's so helpful for people new to the care seeker experience to read a first hand account that is so honest.

My experience and that of my aunt has been nothing but positive. My aunt is supported to be as independent as she can - when this at times has fluctuated then staff have changed that support to match her needs. I am kept informed of any changes to my aunt's presentation immediately so I feel reassured
about her being in a care home - also she sees Evergreens as her home where she has friends and she sees the staff as friends too. I feel fortunate that she is somewhere she feels happy.

Reply from Honor Keatley, Group Business Development Director at The Evergreens Care Centre

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review. The fact that your aunt sees The Evergreens as home and the staff as friends is testament to the amazing work they do and support they provide. By writing this review you have not only enabled our staff members to read what a significant impact they have but you've also provided a vital window into life at The Evergreens for new care seekers.With best wishes, Group Business Development Director

A lovely family atmosphere over the Christmas Holidays. This was the first Christmas we couldn't bring Mam out. Residents enjoyed the decorations, music, activities, and the 'no secco' to make things feel festive.
The care as usual is first class, the staff looked after Mam physically but also mentally
making Mam laugh.

My mother has been a resident at Evergreens since December 2023 and I'm delighted with the care she receives and can't recommend the home highly enough. All the staff I've met are wonderful - very caring, friendly and professional and always cheerful and welcoming - nothing is ever too much trouble.
The two activities coordinators always ensure a wide variety of regular activities are available and encourage residents to get involved, and the catering staff do a fantastic job providing good home-cooked meals - Mum has regained her appetite and put on weight since she arrived.
It's reassuring to know she's safe and being well looked after, and has plenty of company and things to do if and when she wants.
The home itself has a lovely 'family' feel, the bedrooms are clean and comfortable and the extensive garden is a big plus, especially in the summer.
Many thanks to all the staff for the care and support they provide.

My gran has been in The Evergreens Care Centre for a few months now and I can't say a bad word about the staff. Even if anything has gone wrong, the manager listens and responds quickly to resolve things. My family are made to feel welcome and never feel like we can't ask questions. Nothing is too much
bother. The home is always clean and smells clean too. It is homely and has a friendly atmosphere. Most importantly of all, Gran is happy and looks well and it's easy to see she is well cared for and the staff actually care about what they are doing and have a lot of pride. It's so reassuring for me and Mum to know that Gran is in good hands. Thank you so much to you all.

I am the daughter of a resident and happy to use this care home we had our mam in 3 years ago. Now the family have had no choice but to put Dad in this care home after his discharge from hospital was full-time care. The staff are amazing and Dad is well looked after and is settling in nicely, knowing
he is in a safe place and well looked after. Keep up the good work to all the staff. They work really hard to make our relatives comfortable and happy, great to see some of the staff still there from when we were last there.

We as a family have used this home in the past for my mother in her dying days and everybody involved in this home was totally professional in the care they showed back in 2019. Recently we sorted care for my father and again I contacted Evergreen through a senior member of the nursing staff. The lady
was so helpful and guided me through the process to make the transfer of my parent from hospital into nursing care simple, relieving the family of a lot of the stress involved. Since my parent has been in the home, the care shown has been exceptional from all members of staff involved in this home. The facilities are excellent for the residents' needs and the home is always well maintained and is always clean when entering. Never do you experience odours related to elderly care on entering due to the high level of cleanliness carried out by the staff. I want to thank all the members of management and staff for the continuous support shown and I cannot praise them enough for the care they give Dad.

Reply from Dan Shutt, Home Manager at The Evergreens Care Centre

Thank you for your positive and kind feedback. It is a privilege to have your father here with us and it means a great deal to us that you have faith in us to provide the quality of care you would expect for a parent. Your comments will be most appreciated by all.

My dad has had a challenging life with his health over the last 3 years, where the family has looked after him and this year he's got worse with his mobility. Incontinence has been a very stressful and challenging time and dad was sent to Evergreens from the hospital. The care dad is getting is second
to none. He's getting well looked after, staff are always there when you need to speak to them and are very friendly. The home is very clean and well organised.

My Mum has been at The Evergreens since we had to make the hard decision of her requiring full-time care. Initially, she was in the residential part of the care home, and subsequently, after an illness, she moved into the first-floor nursing part of the home. Both rooms she has had have been lovely
and have everything she needs. The care she has had and is getting has been brilliant and we cannot thank all the staff enough for taking such good care of her. Nothing is ever a problem and someone is always available, should we need to talk. A very well run home with excellent staff throughout and although it was a hard decision to make at the outset, it was the right one as the care Mum gets is excellent. Thank you all.

My dad was transferred from the hospital into the Evergreen care home as he was unable to care for himself. As I live in Spain, I was concerned I would have no contact with him but the staff are so efficient they arrange FaceTime calls for me. While I was home in February, they made it easy to see him
with covid tests in place. I have come back to Spain knowing he is well looked after and in a good place.

So pleased to write a review for Evergreen Care Home and their marvellous staff. I have discussed the review with my father as he also constantly sings their praises. My mother, unfortunately, is an advanced Alzheimers patient at the home. From day one we have witnessed the kindness, ‘care’ skills and
genuine guardianship exhibited by all the staff. The manager is particularly meticulous and thorough in ensuring high care standards for the residents and we can honestly state that he has a fantastic team of staff who have shown Mum genuine care, compassion, attentiveness and love. A special mention for one member of staff who is happy to go the extra mile with styling/dying Mum's hair and painting her nails. Also, the lady who spends hours feeding Mum to ensure her weight is maintained at a healthy level. Mum is thriving once again since being admitted in Feb 2021 and we cannot recommend this home highly enough.

Travelled from Portsmouth to visit my Mam in October as I hadn’t seen her for over a year due to COVID restrictions and travel restrictions. My Mam had always been very content and happy in this care home for the last 3 years and even though restrictions were hard, the staff always found time to talk
to us on the phone or set up face time appointments so we could keep in touch with Mam. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel valued and special and make sure that Mam was well taken care of. Our visit in October was long overdue and again the staff were so helpful, kind and caring. One nurse, in particular, made sure we were up to date with any news or how Mam was doing. It was an upsetting and emotional time as it had been so long, but to know what capable hands Mam was in made us feel so much better. Sadly, Mam passed away in January this year, but again to the very end, they sat with her and cared for her. I would not hesitate to recommend this care home.

My Mam was resident here for the last year of her life. The setting is lovely and the room was nicely decorated. The care my Mam received was exemplary. The nurses and other staff made sure she was clean, fed and comfortable. She was given additional high-calorie foods due to her condition. The kitchen
staff should be proud of the part they played in helping my Mam heal. When she arrived from another care setting, she was suffering from terrible pressure sores. The nurses worked so hard to help her heal. The staff were always happy in their work and the communication was second to none. The support offered to my Dad and the whole family in the last weeks of my Mam's life was amazing. Nothing was any bother to anyone. I wish I had more words to describe my Mam's and the family's experience. I would recommend this care home to anyone. We were so lucky to find this place and I would have no hesitation in using it again if the need arose. Angels without wings!

My father was admitted into your care last August after a long spell in hospital after suffering a serious stroke. He's always been a very independent man and doesn't like people doing things for him. We lost our Mum. His wife of 52 years and it was a big upheaval for him to suddenly not be at home
in his own surroundings. I'm kept up to date constantly and the staff are very helpful in setting up facetime for us, as I live in Australia, it is very hard to be so far away. I cannot fault the care my Dad is receiving and am blessed he is in such a caring environment. Nothing is too much trouble. Questions are answered quickly and professionally. Special thanks to the registered nurse.

Current Review Score: 8.8 (8.826)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.8 (8.826) out of 10 for The Evergreens Care Centre 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 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.3 out of 5 from 6 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 4.528 for The Evergreens Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (40 Excellents x 5) + (30 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 72 Ratings = 4.528

  • 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 4.298 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Evergreens Care Centre is based on 6 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 = 3.6

    • 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 43 registered maximum number of service users is 8.6. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 8.6 = 0.698

  • 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.
