Barchester Hampton Grove is an excellent care home. The home itself is finished to a high standard and is very welcoming. My mother has been very well looked after since moving in a year ago. The staff and carers are doing a fantastic job despite the current Covid19 pandemic.

It's taken a while but I'd like to thank on behalf of our family all the staff and management at Hampton Grove for their outstanding care of my mum in the last few months of her life. They took in a very poorly and confused elderly lady in the middle of a global pandemic and gave her the love and security
that she needed, and made her feel safe and looked after. At the end of her life, they were very compassionate and supportive to us and helped us to cope with such a difficult time. We can't really thank any of them enough.

I can only give my review prior to lockdown as I have not seen Mum since lockdown. However, I can only assume she is being looked after exceptionally well, as she was prior to this.

As we cannot go into the home it's hard to do a review. But all the staff are very good and care for him. We have had garden visits and he comes out and is always smart and tidy. Now is the time we worry about coming to see him as it is too cold outside for him. My mum is in assisted living and has
a flat with care but it is too cold to bring her now at 93 years old.

My mum has to have temporary care whilst her husband was in hospital due to her having vascular dementia. Whenever I visited Hampton Grove or rang the staff were so friendly and kind. If my mum ever had to permanently go into a nursing/care home I would only choose Hampton Grove.

My father went to Hampton Grove for respite to give my mum a break. He walked into the care home walking and talking but came out in a wheelchair and has never been able to talk to us again and an ambulance had to be called when we got him home. He was admitted to hospital with a bad UTI which had been
undetected by the care home. During his two weeks stay, he had two falls, having never fallen over at home at all since his dementia diagnosis or stroke. We struggled to get any details of what happened and what injuries he had, communication within the care home team was very poor and also communication to my mother. I had to call a meeting with the assistant manager to get some kind of answers which she was reluctant to have and during that meeting it became pretty apparent how bad communication was. Once we got my father's belongings back, quite a few items of clothing were and still are missing but to our horror in his case were items including medication belonging to other people.

Do not use this company. My 98 yr old father stayed here for one week and really did not enjoy the experience. He said that no one talked to him, so our explanation that he was profoundly deaf, was ignored.
On collecting him all his clothes were in the laundry, even though we had expressly said not
to wash them, and I was told that they could not retrieve his clothes for 5 days! I made a complaint in person and was not offered anything but apologies, even though we had to buy extra clothes for him in the interim.
We had him booked for a haircut and they couldn't even manage to get him to that, they forgot.....
When we got him home his speech was slurred due to lack of fluids, which took days to reverse, our doctor had to put him on hydration medication! I hate to think what state he would have been in after 2 weeks.
We felt so guilty that we had left our lovely, frail dad, with people who just care about the numbers. I'm sure this is down to poor management.

Although due to the coronavirus lockdown we have been unable to see my mother, I have been impressed with the response from the staff. We have been doing 'Whatsapp' calls with my mum, who seems to be in a good state of mind and is constantly reassure by the staff when she becomes upset about her situation.
She seems to be well-fed and cared for.

My nan was transferred to Hampton Grove after a fall at home amidst the covid pandemic, so it has been extremely stressful for our family, but after a shaky start with the reception team (I had the phone put down on me after enquiring about visitation, sounded like he was too busy to talk to me) The
care team and entertainments staff have been amazing! My nan seems fairly happy (Which is a miracle in itself) I would like to say a special thank you to the lady who works with my nan as she has gone above and beyond for her.

Hampton Grove was Mum's happy, caring home for the last 20-months. Although quite a private person, Mum made lovely new friends with both residents and carers and enjoyed activities such a char aerobics, cake decorating and crafts. I could call or visit whenever I wanted and was always welcomed and
brought up to date with and medical needs etc. They really upped their game during the covid pandemic, quickly locking down the home, wearing PPE and having staff and residents tested. They also found ways to continue the activity programme without outside help. I have already recommended Hampton Grove to others. Thanks for all your hard work and best wishes to all the team.

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.
