For over 6 1/2 years my mother has been resident at Harker House, Long Stratton. During that time she received the very best of care, love, understanding and respect. She was always listened to by staff and treated with respect and kindness. She enjoyed a wide variety of activities and made many new friends. She played bingo just one week before passing away at 105 years old! She loved the staff and regarded them as family and they treated her as such. We are grateful to them all. Harker House is only as good as its staff, and they are excellent!!

My brother first came with Dementia and was always jolly and cheeky. The staff reciprocated, but with respect. Now for his last months, although unable to do much they still treated him with humour which he obviously enjoyed as he would smile, we appreciated this very much. They always treated us almost as friends and seemed a dedicated group. We were impressed by the whole service given and couldn't have wished for a better end for our much loved brother, husband, uncle and father. Thank you.

The staff and manager made sure my family were all looked after when the time was near by providing support, food and drinks and even a shoulder to cry on if needed. We couldn't have asked for a better place for my nanny to life over the past year, the staff we all so welcoming to her on arrival and to our family when we came to visit.

My mum sadly passed away in July after the heart failure she had had for years finally took her but I can honestly say that her last few weeks were filled with love and care and much of that was attributable to the staff at Harker House to whom I will be forever grateful.

My dad became a resident at Harker in Oct 22 and more recently has been joined by Mum as well. Both had previously been receiving respite care in other local private care homes and whilst they received a good standard of care elsewhere there is one very big difference - they are businesses, Harker...
Every member of staff from the managers to cooks, the carers to handyman treat the residents like they are their own family, no matter how busy anyone is they have a smile and a friendly word for residents and visitors. Ok, so the rooms might not be the poshest and the building might be a little tired but you need to look past that and witness the care, warmth and love which echoes throughout. There is nowhere else I would want my parents to be. Harker made Xmas so special, there was so much going on from singers to pantomines, choirs to a charity. It's not just for Xmas though, every day there is something happening, they have so much fun.
Thank you for your review, we are so pleased that you are happy with the service that Harker provide to your parents. We always try so hard to ensure everyone is happy and engaged in activities to maintain their wellbeing. There is a real family feel within the home and that's just how we all want it to be, everyone is made to feel welcome and included as they should.
