Dad came here as a lonely 87 year old who had lost his confidence following a fall. In the time he has been here he has become part of a friendly and supportive community which has helped restore his quality of life, I would not trust his care to just anyone and searched for a while to find the right
place for him. Avery House is definitely it and I would recommend it highly.

In the two year's my uncle has been a resident I've visited virtually every week and I've never seen or heard anything going on which has caused me any concern. The staff say they want to treat residents as they would want their own mother/father to be treated and this comes across.

The care both my mum and mother-in-law receives here is beyond words, the staff treat them both like their own mum's as I would expect. The home is managed very professionally and take great care to make sure all the resident's needs are met and also have time for the families at all times. My mum has
settled very well here after trying two other homes who couldn't meet her needs. The care here is so good. I have already put my name down for a room when I am ready, Seriously.

I believe it would be very difficult to find another care home where residents could have better care. Any needs are attended to promptly and staff are cheerful and friendly. Their attitude towards relatives is first class. Any concerns are always discussed and satisfactory outcomes achieved. If my
husband was not happy there I would know just by looking at him! The leadership of the management team permits through all departments.

Dad has been in the home for 18 months he was in fair health when he arrived, but has deteriorated in the last few weeks. He is cared for very well, on the whole. Sometimes I find that messages do not get passed on, But the staff are very friendly, quite a high turn over through, sadly.

Avery House has restored my faith in residential care. My mother who suffers from Alzheimers was initially admitted for emergency respite care when my father was hospitalised but is now permanent. I have been impressed with the very good care shown as well as the approachability and friendliness of
staff who listen and try to accommodate clients' needs. Medical care has been good and appropriate. My father is now also in residential care at Avery House, initially for respite following his hospitalisation, but has now requested to stay and he really likes it there.
It was a welcome surprise to be invited for a care review for both parents to discuss any concerns or issues I might have had. I was also grateful of the offer of an escort for a hospital appointment.
For me the only improvement is that there seems to be a loss of personal clothing through the laundry process.
I have been a carer from afar and wish I could find somewhere equivalent on the South Coast closer to my home.

my wife and I had no hesitation to make it his permanent residence.

I am very pleased with the overall care in Avery House. Nice clean environment, a happy place. All staff very kind to residents and families, occasionally they seem understaffed but try hard to care for everyone. They do need more activities as in the last few months I haven't seen or heard as much
singing going on and other activities.

The staff were very welcoming and kind. They assessed my father quickly and efficiently to get him the aids he needed to help him. The staff listened carefully to him and us to make sure he was happy. The food was excellent and family were invited to join mealtimes. When he went into hospital a member
of staff stayed with him until we arrived and the manager and her assistant visited him. They were very caring and he liked them.

Avery House has been a lifesaver for my father and me. Following a stroke, he was withdrawn, not getting out of bed or washing (even with carers) while living in his own home. Once in Avery, he was helped out of bed in the mornings. He is clean and happy. He is well fed and can mix with others though
chooses often to eat in his room. He is helped with all daily activities. The staff are very caring and compassionate, despite my father having some inappropriate behaviour. The home is well run. Every one smiles and chats when I visit (daily). My only negative points are it is quite expensive compared to some other homes. But are they as good as Avery?

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.725)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.725) out of 10 for Barchester Hampton Grove Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 43 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 42 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 4.725 for Barchester Hampton Grove Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (405 Excellents x 5) + (81 Goods x 4) + (16 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (6 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 509 Ratings = 4.725

  • 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 Barchester Hampton Grove Care Home is based on 42 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 86 registered maximum number of service users is 17.2, which has been reached with 42 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.
