It is so lovely to walk into Henrietta House and be welcomed by smiles and laughter from all the staff. The care given is second to none. It is clean and tidy, and all residents are treated with respect. I would not hesitate in recommending Henrietta House to anyone who asked. All in all, a wonderful
place for our loved ones.

The home has a very warm and friendly atmosphere. I like that staff interact well with the residents. They have a lot of activities. It's free to visit as and when we like night or day. The residents are involved in choices regarding changes in decor or new furniture.

I rang and made an appointment to visit the home with a view to place my mum there, after a short spell in hospital. I was made very welcome and had an excellent tour of the home. The residents were very friendly and the staff were cheerful, caring and keen to help. Mum has settled in and is gradually
improving, feeling a little stronger each day.

We always receive a warm welcome from the manager and staff when we visit Mum and Mum greets us with a happy smile. She is well cared for, very well fed and above all 'loved'. She is kept clean and all her personal needs are taken care of. We no longer worry that she is lonely or will have a fall as
there is always someone on hand to help. She enjoys all the singing, games and animals. When she asks if she is going home and we say 'not today' she answers 'oh good!!' so what more could you ask for. Thank you so much to you all for helping to give our lives back as well as making Mum so happy.

My husband and I visited Henrietta House 4 months ago as I needed to find a care home quickly as mum was 'bed blocking in hospital' how lucky we were to find it, it may not have all the latest gizmo's ensuites bathrooms etc but the atmosphere is like home from home amazing, kind, caring staff and nothing
is too much trouble. Fabulous home-cooked food too.

Mum is very well cared for here. The staff are great and very caring. Before becoming a resident here, she lived alone and was isolated but is now much more open and friendly.
That's because she's not lonely anymore.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My sister has dementia and is not an easy person to look after and deal with, but the staff at Henrietta House have always been kind and caring, treating my sister with respect even when she is being very difficult and taking care of her needs where they can. My sister is kept clean and her personal
needs taken care of.
I feel there should be more room for residents who wish to sit quietly or walk around and receive visitors with more privacy.

Henrietta House, what can I say, but congratulations to a wonderful team of people. Their dedication to residents is outstanding, always treated with respect and dignity. My friend spent a month in hospital after which he had deteriorated. The team, together have progressed him well again. Its taken
many weeks to achieve, which is remarkable considering his condition. My thanks go to all the team for all their hard work and kindness, not just for my friend, but for all the residents.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.864)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.864) out of 10 for Henrietta House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 10 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.864 for Henrietta House is calculated as follows: ( (102 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 118 Ratings = 4.864
  2. 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 Henrietta House is based on 10 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 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
    2. 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 25 registered maximum number of service users is 5, which has been reached with 10 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
