Please note that the following observations have already been advised to local management. Some inexperienced members of staff entering bedrooms unannounced. Some staff have poor understanding of English, yet talking with residents partially deaf! More training and supervision is required for these people who put an extra burden on the regular staff. Meals were substandard when no supervision was available in the serving area. My room was not serviced for 50% of my 2 week stay. I was expecting a higher standard of professionalism for £1600 per week, most staff were excellent but they faced an uphill task.

The staff are always pleasant and caring and professional. The facilities are second to none and it has a comfortable homely feel even though we have only been visiting for a few weeks. Would definitely recommend.
04 September 2024
I would definitely stay again. The overall service was excellent. However, I like traditional food (meat, fish, vegetables) and not food in sauces etc. That said, an alternative was offered. The breakfasts were fantastic! The staff were lovely and I received super support and care.

I pop in most weeks and found the reception staff along with the rest of the care staff friendly and welcoming, I'm very happy with the care and accommodation given by all at Hanford Court Care Home. Also, the most important person (my friend) seems very happy too.

I thought there may have been more activities going on during her stay. Mum commented she had lovely carers and the food was excellent. The rooms were a little on the dark side. Sometimes long wait for the telephone to be answered (Sundays only). Otherwise Mum and her daughter had a pleasant experience.

My review covers care for my husband which is excellent. The home is clear, offers welcoming coffee and cake to visitors, staff always helpful.

Nice modern property, staff very friendly building looks well looked after as do all the rooms. I felt Mum was safe and well looked after.
15 April 2024
The staff are always very helpful and the general appearance of the internal surroundings is very pleasant. The patient has to have a riser and lowering bed but we don't think it is up to a good standard. It is not a comfortable mattress.

Mum's only been there since November. She settled very well. I didn't think she would. From day one the staff and management have remembered her name! So smart and friendly, so far all good. Mum couldn't be in a better place. Thank you!

I can’t fault the care my grandad has/is receiving at Hanford Court, after him initially being very apprehensive about moving he is now integrating into daily life and has improved greatly from when he first moved. All the staff treat him as an individual and family are kept up to date with any information. We all know he is in safe hands.

Words are not enough to express our sincere gratitude for the kindness and wonderful support given to my wife and me whilst staying at Hanford Court Care Home. We received safe dementia care for my wife whilst I required professional convalescent/rehabilitation care following a hip operation (be it we resided in separate rooms and on separate floors). The attentive staff make one feel very welcome, and supportive and take pride to ensure your stay here is happy and memorable. We would have no hesitation recommending Hanford Court to any prospective guests. First-class care throughout!

My sister and I are extremely satisfied with our mum's care at Hanford Court. The internal and external surroundings are very pleasant and well maintained and the staff work very hard to provide a homely atmosphere with many varied activities. Mum has made many friends and is always telling us how happy she is - it gives us great peace of mind. A big thank you to all staff!

Since joining the care home, my sister has thrived. She enjoys the company of the other charming residents on her floor and agrees that all the staff are really caring and wonderful. As a visitor, I always feel welcome and at home and I know that my sister's needs are met 100%.
05 September 2023
As a resident from April 2022, it has taken me until recently to adjust to my change of lifestyle. I am reconciled and understand how my life will be. The tick box is largely a waste of time for example staff range from excellent through to poor, willing to do the least they need to. Under facilities, a personal plus would be a simple gym but I realise this would be difficult to supervise. As requested I have marked every box of the course assessment.
04 September 2023
My aunt has only been a resident for a few months but staff are helping her to 'settle in' and encouraging her to join in activities.
25 July 2023
Enjoyed my stay, carers and all staff were excellent and welcoming. My room was spacious and very well equipped. A beautiful dining room and communal areas. Enjoyed the quiet, secluded gardens. My only slight complaint was the service of food at meals time and I regularly had luke warm hot meals.
08 June 2023
The care that I have seen given is excellent. As a nurse, the practice and care that is upheld throughout is excellent. They really go the extra mile for the service users ensuring personalised care is given. They ensure that they have a wide range of activities to ensure everyone takes part. The manager should be proud of their staff.
20 April 2023
My total experience when visiting Hanford Court Care Home from the moment you go through the door was staff are friendly, if you need talk to management they are always on hand for a quick chat. There is always activities going on and keeping residents active and motivated.
21 March 2023
Everyone is very friendly and the staff keep me informed. Happy to answer any questions. Dad seems reasonably happy and does take part in activities. Very recently there are not many residents on the top floor and Dad is isolating himself in his room a lot. Activities were reduced initially because of Covid but have not seemed to have started up fully yet. Dad enjoyed his shave/haircut.
28 February 2023
My dad's care has been exceptional. Since my dad went in, his health and mobility have very much improved. He really likes being there.
