Stroud House: Nestling near the foot of the Downs is in the heart of the South Downs National Park. The small, homely Home, can care for just 25 people, fitting the sensitive needs and feelings of those living with dementia. Their aim is to provide a strong sense of community and the best tailored care on an individual basis.

To do this they focus on feelings and cherish each person’s unique life and character from the moment they join their family. They find that this deeper understanding allows them to stimulate mental health as well as looking after physical needs.

The home has been adapted to provide a safe secure environment for dementia. With most rooms on the ground floor, assisted baths, a wheelchair accessible shower room and a beautiful secure garden.

They provide fresh nutritious and tasty home cooking from professional chefs who know everyone and their specific dietary needs. Plus, outings, musical events, specialist diversional therapy, birthday parties, and personalised activities that are intrinsic to daily life.

My mother received very good care throughout her time at Stroud House. In particular, she was cared for with sensitivity and attention during her end of life. The care staff are exemplary, work as a team and support each other. Residents are clean and well looked after, laundry is done regularly and
items rarely go missing. The care is second to none. The facilities and ambience could be better.

My mum has been living at Stroud House for nine and a half years. She has received the best care anyone could wish for. My mum isn't always the easiest of people living with dementia but the staff are really good with her, always meeting my mums needs.

Whilst Stroud House was scruffy, the level of care given to my late husband's short stay was second to none. The staff gave my husband a level of care over and above the line of duty, and on many occasions, the manager and her staff stayed on well after their shifts had finished. The staff were also
very courteous to myself, my husbands family and friends.

Reply from Paul Rogers, Managing Director at Stroud House

Dear Mrs C, thank you for your review and recognition of the amazing work that our staff do, I know that they appreciate this. I am sorry that the home was not in the best condition. This is mainly because we were expecting to start some building work, as this has been postponed we have restarted our refurbishment program.

New care home manager in post wanted to do a care review with my grandmothers next of kin. We discussed her care in general, and recent hospital admissions and any other info or concerns we had. She was excellent in addressing any queries or concerns we had and proactive in implementing any suggested
care practices. Since new care home manager arrived my grandma (with advanced Alzheimer's) is far less confused, more alert and engaging. She was underweight, but with review of her nutritional care and implementations of food changes, she has gained 15% of her body weight and eating better. The staff all clearly care for her and us is so appreciated.

The home is in a quiet safe location, security is good and the gardens for residents are lovely. The staff are friendly, helpful, professional, and the food is very good. The care provided for my father has been excellent and the staff have a genuine interest in his well-being. Many thanks to the team.

Mum was admitted to Stroud House after weeks in hospital, on the orders of Social Services, and I wanted her back home with us as we had cared for her for 13 years. I found the experience very distressing but the staff at Stroud were so wonderfully caring and supportive of both Mum and myself. I have
now come to terms with Mum being in care, due to the wonderful level of care and support she receives. I am so pleased that we chose Stroud. The location is lovely too.

In view of the fact that my wife has lost her sight, it is encouraging to see her joining in with various activities eg., entertainment, quizzes and games etc.

If you are considering a care home for a relative, the professional advice is to research a few. We visited Stroud, then looked no further because the genuine care was so impressive. Residents are offered a range of activities to engage, stimulate and exercise. Outings include the seaside, the Heath
(local beauty spot), the pub opposite. Relatives are kept well informed. Daily routine accommodates residents preferences eg., bedtime. Everyone employed is exemplary - a fantastic team. Any concerns are addressed immediately and practically. I visited twice a week and believe the quality of Mum's life is enhanced by being at Stroud House.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.819)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.819) out of 10 for Stroud House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 30 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 30 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 4.819 for Stroud House is calculated as follows: ( (294 Excellents x 5) + (47 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 349 Ratings = 4.819

  • 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 Stroud House is based on 30 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 25 registered maximum number of service users is 5, which has been reached with 30 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.
