The staff have been extremely welcoming to my mum despite her initial anxiety of moving into a care home. After two weeks of respite, mum asked to stay. Now Mum is settled, loving the entertainment, joining in with activities and has made friends. Staff have also supported me through the emotional rollercoaster
I have experienced when considering care for mum, they provided assurances and demonstrated their ability to provide safe care while ensuring mum maintained her dignity.


I would recommend Hepworth House to anyone who wishes the best for their parent.


Reply from Charlotte Jackson, Customer Care Administrator at Hepworth House

I have been in Hepworth House for two weeks respite stay after having an operation. Every member of staff were helpful and nothing was too much trouble. The food was very good, an excellent choice every day. Staff bought refreshments round. I had lots of visitors they were made welcome with the same
drinks as I. I felt I had plenty of support, I was very comfortable and I didn't want for anything. I will definitely recommend Hepworth House to anyone who asks. One of my visitors is taking a lady who is in an EMI unit to look round Hepworth House.

Everything about this care home has been first-class! The care and the facilities are brilliant. On occasions, it would be better if there was a few more staff about, certainly during the evening.

Having been shown around the home, it was completely different to what I expected in a care home. It reminded me of a 5-star hotel ie. everything you need.

My uncle has been a resident at Hepworth House for five weeks and he loves it there, hardly surprising when he is surrounded by such caring, friendly staff who from data one made him feel so welcome and part of the Hepworth House family. I have been delighted by the support and the warmth shown not
only to him but to his family and friends who are welcome to visit at any time. From my initial telephone enquiry to all my dealings with management I have been hugely impressed by the utmost professionalism they have shown. Nothing is too much trouble and questions are met with patience and understanding. The cleanliness of the home, the many facilities it offers and the superbly equipped rooms are second to none. My first impression of Hepworth House was one of excellence and that has been enhanced on every subsequent visit. A big thank you to all the staff 'angels' that you are.

My mum came to Hepworth House for respite care initially but like it so much she decided to stay. Her favourite phrase whilst she has been here is that she can't fault it, night or day. The food is excellent and so are the staff. I feel very confident that Mum is very well cared for and she is much
happier here and is enjoying the company here.

Reply from Rebekah Steward, Customer Care Team at Hepworth House

Thank you for reviewing Hepworth House and for the lovely way you have described our home. How nice that your mom decided to stay with us at Hepworth House and what a pleasure it is to have her with us permanently. I am so happy that Mum settled in well and that she is happy with the care she is receiving, enjoying the wonderful food we have here, especially a latte and the occasional tip of whisky in her evening drink. We pride ourselves on really making a difference to our resident's lives and delivering care that is tailored to each individual's needs. I will pass on your comments to the staff at Hepworth.

I have been a district nurse for nearly 40 years and have visited many care homes over these years. I have never been in such a well-run and caring home. Everyone is friendly, compassionate and professional. The home is welcoming, nothing is too much trouble and it always smells nice. My mum always
looks nice and well kept. She is happy here which speaks volumes as she dreaded needing to live in a care home. Excellent place.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.776)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.776) out of 10 for Hepworth House 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 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 17 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 4.776 for Hepworth House is calculated as follows: ( (160 Excellents x 5) + (37 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 201 Ratings = 4.776

  • 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 Hepworth House is based on 17 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 17 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.
