Review of Hampden House from Erica B (Wife of Resident) published on 2 February 2026 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
This Care Home specifies it cares for people with Parkinson's.
Unfortunately in my experience their staff are not experienced enough for the care of someone with a difficult illness such as Parkinson's.
This is what my husband experienced between June and Nov.
Within 2 weeks he had a serious UTI. A urine sample was not taken for 10 days although I was asking and insisting they did. Everyone blamed each other as to why it wasn't dealt with and this meant he didn't get the correct antibiotics for 10 days.He was then ill until September, unable to walk and his cognative thinking became worse.
Weekends were difficult as the home was short staffed which left staff under pressure and resulted in poor care and attention.
Food portions are small,afternoon cakes are tiny and weekends sometimes there was not a warm drink or cake offered in the afternoon as there wasn't a member of staff available to organise it.
Management were made aware of my concern.

I was eventually asked to move my husband.

Review of Hampden House from L G (Daughter of Resident) published on 19 November 2025 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience

I looked at every nursing home in the Harrogate area and visited some homes, including Hampden, multiple times. I am leaving this review as I would have moved my mother to Hampden House had she not opted to move out of area to be closer to family. The home has very low to no dependency on agency carers/nurses - this is important for consistency of good care and in marked contrast to some of the other homes in Harrogate. The home is attractive, homely and has a very calm, peaceful feel to it. The manager made time to meet my mother, answer quite in depth questions about care, understood everything and I came away with a positive view of how the home is run.

Review of Hampden House from D S (Daughter of Resident) published on 1 October 2025 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience

Mum has been at Hampden nearly two years. Although it has taken her time to settle in, she is slowly getting there. This is no reflection on the Home, but more the fact that she is unable to do anything for herself anymore and she finds this difficult. We find the staff very accommodating and friendly, although at times I do feel that staffing levels are a little low. Any time I/mum has any concerns I take them straight to management and they are addressed immediately. Activities are always good. Mums room is lovely and we are fortunate to have a lovely outlook.

Review of Hampden House from A T (Daughter of Resident) published on 22 September 2025 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
Mum has been a resident at Hampden House for almost 2 years now,and she has settled brilliantly.
My family and I couldn't be happier with the care and support she receives.
The facilities are excellent,and the activities provided daily are first class. There is always something each week which suits everyone. Mum especially enjoys the music events and the bingo.
The home itself is beautifully presented and the gardens are amazing. Perfect for enjoying an afternoon in the sunshine.

Everyone goes out of their way to make sure Mum is happy, and it is so reassuring for us to know that she is safe,cared for, and in such good hands. Thank you everyone,for the wonderful job you do!

Review of Hampden House from J T (Daughter of Resident) published on 27 May 2025 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience

Overall the care home is good and Mum likes living there and taking part in the activities. Where I have given a rating of satisfactory it relates to the following:-

Facilities - The boiler/heating system is old and keeps failing frequently leaving residents with no heating or hot water and the management do not appear to be addressing the issue properly but appear to be taking the "patching" up approach.

Care/Support - use of agency staff due to being short staffed - something the new management said was one of their top priorities they were going to address 18 months ago when they took over the care home.

Review of Hampden House from Simon W (Son of Resident) published on 16 September 2024 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience

Mum was so well looked after by all the staff at Hampden House, who dealt with her needs with care and compassion. She loved looking out from her room onto the lovely gardens and my dad especially enjoyed his afternoon tea and cake when visiting her daily. I will always be grateful for the dignified way she spent her last months. Thank you.

Review of Hampden House from Christina M (Daughter of Resident) published on 9 August 2024 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience

Mum was always cared for with dignity and respect. The gardens were beautifully kept with hanging baskets outside the windows. Mum enjoyed sitting in the gardens under her sun umbrella. Mum was able to be signed out and taken into Harrogate to local cafes and restaurants when relatives came if she wanted. We felt really confident that we had chosen the right place for her.

↩Reply from Jane Hooren, Deputy Manager at Hampden House

Hello, Thank you for such a lovely review. All our teams work hard to ensure our residents are treated with dignity and respect. We are very fortunate to have such lovely gardens, which everyone can enjoy. And our residents are all involved in selecting the flowers, plants and colours each year. I will pass on your comments to our teams as well.

Review of Hampden House from Martine T (Niece of Resident) published on 2 April 2024 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
From the first phone call to our last day, the staff and support we and my aunt received was excellent.
I lived four hours away and I was always comforted to know that my aunt was safe and supported at all times and I was kept up to speed with how she was, which was a great comfort to me.

I got to know the staff really well and they knew who I was too. Overall experience was excellent.

Review of Hampden House from S T (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 17 January 2024 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience

The most welcoming, hard-working and friendly team are here at Hampden House! My Granny was no longer safe living independently at home and now needs some assistance with everyday personal tasks along with some social engagement and companionship. Hampden House has delivered on all of the above and she is settling well. The staff are so helpful and the rooms and laundry are kept to a high standard. I have been particularly impressed with the social engagement team and the activities that are on offer to my Granny should she choose to participate. Thank you all so much for your warm welcome and all you do to ensure our loved ones are safe and most of all happy in your care.

Review of Hampden House from J T (Respite Resident) published on 19 July 2023 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience

Overall satisfactory and apart from one day (Tuesday) the meals were good although limited choice. My room was a good size and clean on arrival but no cleaning of my room or ensuite was done during my week's stay. No activities or services were offered, I had to ask for everything. Most of the staff were pleasant, polite and respectful. The person who helped me to have the one bath I had, was excellent. One person refused to wash my hair, saying that it was the hairdresser's job, but another did wash my hair later. I did mention a recliner chair, to ease leg pain but nothing was offered. The laundry service was good, though some items were lost.

↩Reply from Jane Hooren, General Manager at Hampden House

Thank you for taking the time to send in a review. I would like to apologise that your stay was not as what we would expect here at Hampden and I will speak to the teams involved to ensure this does not occur again. I hope that this has not put you off returning to the home in the future.
