The Review Score of 9.6 (maximum of 10) for Henrietta House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 46 Reviews over all time. This Average Rating is also the rating value for Henrietta House in Google's Search Results - more info
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5 out of 5 from 20 positive Reviews in the last 12 months.
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating of all Reviews over all time. For each review the Care Home / service is rated Excellent, Good, Satisfactory, Poor or Very Poor on a number of areas eg Staff, Management etc. The Care Home receives points for each rating as follows: Excellent = 5. Good = 4. Satisfactory = 3. Poor = 2. Very Poor = 1. These points are added up and then divided by the total number of completed ratings to generate the average rating.
The Average Rating of 4.611 for Henrietta House is calculated as follows: ( (373 Excellents x 5) + (136 Goods x 4) + (37 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 547 Ratings = 4.611
b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 12 months. If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with 'Extremely Likely' or 'Likely' in answer to the question 'How likely are you to recommend this Care Home to friends and family if they needed similar care or treatment?'
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
4 points are available for the first 5 Positive Reviews, 3 points for the first Positive Review and then 0.25 Points for each of the next 4 Positive Reviews.
1 point is available for reaching a target number of Positive Reviews based on 20% of the number of registered maximum number of service users. If the target is partially reached then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home with 50 registered maximum number of service users has a target of 10 Positive Reviews, if it has 10 or more Positive Reviews it will receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews will receive 0.7 points.
If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. The calculation is the same as above, except the points are divided by 2.
The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Henrietta House is based on 20 positive Reviews in the last 12 months and is calculated as follows:
3 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 4
Target of 5 positive Reviews (25 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 20 Reviews ÷ 5 Target Reached = 1
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
Henrietta House has a Review Score of 9.6 (9.611) from 46 Reviews

My father thinks they are all wonderful and wishes to marry them all (he's a flirt) I can't say fairer than that.
I find them all good-humoured and teat him very well.

Having cared for my husband at home for so many years, I was delighted to find Henrietta House. I was drawn to them because of the friendly, extremely caring staff. It really is a home from home. I felt confident in the knowledge that my husband would be very well looked after which gave me peace of mind.
Should I have any queries or questions there is always someone to talk to, and in return, they never hesitate to advise me of anything that they might be concerned about his well being. I cannot thank them enough.

As a stranger to Bedford, I was very impressed with the welcome I received in this lovely care home.
The staff are wonderful, even the cleaning ladies who always speak to me and make me feel good.
They should all be given platinum medals as they are all so special.

What a wonderful care home Henrietta House is.
When my Dad first came to stay here I was very sceptical, how wrong was I. He settled in very quickly and I could tell he really felt looked after. Whilst I do find it very sad watching my Dad deteriorating I feel comforted by the fact he is receiving the very best care, from all the staff.
I cannot express my gratitude enough, but hopefully, this review will help.

Even with a huge amount of family support, my partner's mum couldn't cope at home any longer. We, therefore, had to find a care home suited to her personality and needs. Henrietta House was more like a home from the outset; making a surprise visit to the home, my partner saw a carer dancing with a resident - it was all very natural and showed there was a genuine connection. After moving in the staff soon had my partner's mum back to her old self. In fact, an improved version - she willingly did some painting. I would have never believed it if I hadn't seen it. She won't ask for help so staff have to be very attentive without smothering her. Somehow they manage this. Consequently, her hospital visits have almost ceased and when a hospital admission is necessary, the stay is very short. All staff are always on the residents' agenda and visitors are always welcome.

After a protracted period in hospital my mum decided that she needed to be looked after 24/7. In looking to secure a home for my mum I visited several witnessing a range of options and qualities, most of which I felt were not suitable. From the moment I entered Henrietta House it felt like a home rather than a residential care home and the happy, caring and positive vibe came over immediately. Whilst in hospital my mum had given up and emotionally she was in quite a bad place, within a couple of weeks the team at Henrietta House had turned things around and not only gave us our old mum back but a new improved person with a refreshed view on life. Mum had not only begun living again but was interacting with others including getting involved with craft sessions, quizzes and visiting entertainers. The staff are open, transparent and very supportive to everyone, they naturally exceed expectations, nothing is too much to ask for and the kettle is always on! Thank you the Henrietta Team.

The first thing that struck me when I went to visit Henrietta House was how welcoming, friendly and helpful the staff were.
My mother began her stay there mid-August 2017 initially for respite care, but it soon became obvious she needed longer-term provision.
The staff tried their very best for Mother at all times. They always kept me up to date with her progress.
If the fabric of the building and the interior decor had money spent on it, it would be a much nicer environment but I cannot fault the staff.

I find that all the staff are kind, considerate, friendly and helpful. Residents are treated with respect and their dignity is preserved.
I think more use could be made of the garden and perhaps residents could be encouraged to spend 10 minutes outside especially on sunny days. Also, there used to be exercises done in the lounge. This seems to have stopped. I feel that they would benefit from regular exercise to aid circulation. Several residents are very difficult and can cause tension.

I cannot fault anything about Henrietta House.
Firstly, my mum and dad both went in together for respite in April. Mum had 2 weeks in there and decided to leave dad in the care home as she was unable to cope with dad at home. Mum being 91 and dad 89. The care was second to none. The staff are so kind and dedicated, they kept dad there for his last weeks/ days until he passed in July.
The manager was wonderful and herself and her staff couldn't have done any more than they did. Well done team Henrietta.

I have found the care my mum has had and is receiving at Henrietta House to be fantastic.
The staff are extremely kind and understanding. We are always informed of decisions and problems with a high level of compassion. I feel they are a great team that are happy to include the carers in that team. They listen to concerns.
They have nursed Mum through a very difficult period. If I have a criticism it is that the owners could put some more funding in to perhaps brighten up the general decor and furnishings.
Otherwise a wonderful home.

The degree of care my mother receives is by far the most excellent care my sisters and I could ask for. The staff have fully informed us of every detail of her care, with care and consideration for our feelings. We would definitely recommend this home to anyone who would need care for their loved one.
The food looks delicious and the staff are wonderful, feeding and caring for their health needs.

The lovely care staff and management team looked after my late Grandmother in Law impeccably for 18 months during her stay at the home. She was always happy and content and whatever the day and however busy the staff were, nothing was too much trouble for them.
We visited regularly and at different times of the day and the care never varied from the highest standards. The staff also took the time to chat, cuddle and laugh with her, and our Nanna considered this home, her home. We are blessed that her final months were as happy as they were and this is all down the attention to detail from the staff. Thank you, everyone, at Henrietta House.

Residents appeared well cared for with respect and dignity.
Food served was appetising and in small attractively served portions.

Following a period in hospital, my father required urgent respite care at the end of November 2016. We visited Henrietta House without notice and were pleasantly surprised by the fantastic atmosphere. The staff were clearly well motivated and visibly interested in the residents and their welfare. An art and crafts session had just finished and the residents had clearly enjoyed it.
Two months later, my father’s integration has been a complete success. The manageress and staff have been more than supportive both to my father and to my family. We have jointly overcome some early challenges, and most importantly my father is happy and settled. Thank you so much HH Team.

I found all the staff caring and cheerful. My mother is happy to be in the home. She still has her opinions on the surroundings and would be able to complain if unhappy, she likes the food (mostly) and the home is quick to make note of preferences and dislikes and they remember them.

My mother was a resident in this home for three years, and even though she did not speak English, the manager and staff went out of their way to communicate with her. During the last year, my mother's health deteriorated and she certainly kept them on their toes, but they cared for her with the utmost professionalism and nothing was to much trouble for them, always making sure she was treated with dignity and respect.
We developed a lovely relationship with the manager and staff and my sister and I felt that we were part of a very big family.
Henrietta House is a lovely home, with a very caring manager and staff.

My aunt has been in Henrietta House for 3 years. Living a long way away I rely on staff to keep me informed of her progress.
I now know the manager and her deputy extremely well and we feel very comfortable talking openly and frankly about my aunt, her general wellbeing, medical and other needs. Although I hold them in high regard, they have of late excelled themselves by the dedication and kindness shown to my aunt during a recent trauma involving several hospital visits. The manager, although off duty, came in on several occasions to accompany my aunt to hospital due to her high anxiety levels and was able to keep her calm and responsive to treatment.
My aunt is very happy at the home and is well cared for. Her care plan is always up to date and very comprehensive.
I have only admiration for the staff who always seem very attentive when I visit.
Whilst the staff and general care given cannot be faulted, I would like to see the owners maybe spend some money on general decoration .

Henrietta House provides a loving caring safe house for their residents who to me comes over as a large extended family and with like all families you'll get the flare ups which staff deal with in a caring but professional manner. No matter what age or culture, Henrietta House is a loving place and the staff do a brilliant job. Like with all families you can see and feel the strength and dignity that our older residents have. They need to feel safe, loved and understood. Henrietta House does this.

My mother has been in Henrietta House since June 2014 and she has always been a difficult person and with dementia, she can be more so. The staff who care for her are out of this world it's like home from home. When I visit which can be any day, anytime night or day, to me it's like walking into a family home with all the family there. They are a great team and all of them work hard, they are all like close friends to me.

My mother went to Henrietta House three and a half years ago following a fall and worsening dementia. It is not a purpose built care home but a converted victorian house which now serves admirably as a small comfortable residential care home. There are two lounges, one for the frailer residents and the other where the most active ones can sit and socialise. There is a separate dining room where the more mobile residents eat. The food served is of an excellent standard and my mother quickly regained the weight she had lost when losing her ability to care for herself. However, the most outstanding aspect of this home is the dedication and commitment of all the staff and the low turnover. All the residents are treated with dignity and compassion at all times.

My adored mum was taken in for respite care in January 2015 and due to her deteriorating health is still there. She is so very happy to be here. I Myself and members of my family visit daily and are always made so very welcome by all the staff. Any problems which may occur can be easily discussed with the manager (who doesn't miss anything). The home really has a lovely family atmosphere and I am quite happy for my mum to be taken care of by the wonderful patient and caring staff. Nothing is too much trouble and I have visited at various times during the day. Indeed my mum thinks she is still in her own home. That says it all as far as I'm concerned.

Mr sister seems to be well looked after by the staff. When we visit she is nearly always still in bed in her room. She told us that is myself and my two other sisters that this is what she prefers as she is not happy sitting with the other residents. She has a radio but not a TV as her poor eyesight means she would not be able to see and when she did live by herself she rarely watched the TV anyway. Because she is single, and always had a good job, and was looked after that is why we feel she is as contented to lay in bed all the time as it's her choice.

Our mother has been a resident at Henrietta House for 3 years due to her complex health needs. The staff are extremely caring at all times and mum has settled in well there. There are various weekly activities that take place which residents enjoy and once a month a church minister goes there for prayers.
Also, the rooms are clean and tidy and mum enjoys the meals provided by the kitchen staff.
In general as a family we are very happy with the care provided by the home for our mother.

This is a very friendly and well run care home. My mother has now been there for 3.5 years after being diagnosed with Alzheimer's. At times she can be very difficult, but the staff and manager have been excellent at dealing with her outbursts. Her care needs are well met, hygiene and general appearance, and the hairdresser and chiropodist visit her there. My mother enjoys the food and is well nourished. Often there is entertainment, music or a church service and a Christmas party and summer fete. Recently there has been a Mad Hatters tea party and yet to come is a beach party!
