My experience is very encouraging and welcoming in regards for the initial interviews and very accommodating on the day of induction, but the manager and staff seem to be carrying out all their duties very well and my sister-in-law seemed very settled and cared for, a most pleasing experience.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have found Haresbrook Park Care Home to be exceptional in their care, my mother in law has settled in really well, she has been there for 12 months and is very happy. My experience is that they go above and beyond.
There are so many acts of kindness that I just wish I could detail them here, It
honestly feels like an extended family.
She loves her room, she is doing activities that she never would have done for example swimming.
They encourage her to take pride in her appearance and in my opinion, she has gained a far better quality of life since being there.
We have attended many events and it's always a fun time with great food, they have a better social life than me!
Thank you Haresbrook.

Review from P D (Friend of Resident) published on 25 February 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I can't believe what I am reading in these negative reviews. All I can say is that when I am visiting the staff are happy and friendly and are doing all they can to make sure they are giving care to the residents. I have seen many care homes fail to give care. This however is not one of them. It's so
easy to put the blame on those caring for our loved ones when we morn the loss of loved ones ourselves maybe it's the guilt we couldn't get to see them much or have done more ourselves
Reply from Helen Whitehouse, Manager at Haresbrook Park Care Home

The staff do try to get things right every time and we acknowledge that we are not perfect. The staff team here work hard and we have kept COVID away throughout the last 2 years which is not an easy thing to do with residents who have a Dementia.
I will pass your comments onto the staff.
Once again thank you.

Just think before you use this place.
I’m totally destroyed with myself because I left my dad here.
I wish I could go back.
I would not leave my beloved dog here.
I miss dad more than life.
They made so many mistakes.
Yet will get away with it.
My life is just full of guilt because I left
dad here with these people.
Lies lies.
I hope nobody else goes to hell like I’m in.

I am deeply sorry that you feel this way and you have had a negative experience. There were failings, however, we are now progressing and working in partnership with our Regulatory Authorities and the Local Authority. Once again we are very sorry that you feel the experience did not meet your expectations.

The experience was stress-free, I felt secure in the knowledge that Dad was in excellent hands.
The whole team were super efficient from the administrator who I first dealt with to the manager.
I was treated with respect and felt comfortable discussing Dad's many medical and emotional needs. I would
highly recommend this care home for long and short term occupancy.
I cannot thank them enough.

All the staff that we have met to date are very friendly, helpful and efficient when dealing with our aunt who is a resident (and ourselves when we visit or telephone). The home's staff give the impression of being highly knowledgeable regarding dealing with residents suffering from dementia in order
to make their lives more relaxing, peaceful and acceptable. A great deal of empathy for residents is displayed.

My father-in-law is spending 2 weeks here for respite care. We visited for the afternoon and were very impressed by the accommodation, the lovely situation and mostly the kind reception we received from all members of staff. My father-in-law seemed very relaxed and we felt that he was most definitely
in the right place for his care needs.

We went to visit my sister today for the first time in 15 months, due to Covid, she looked amazing and well cared for - we had tears in our eyes. I do have to say they have made a great improvement to the home, we are very grateful to all the staff. We were treated with high respect on our arrival.
Thank you for the care of my sister and everyone looked so happy.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.639)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.639) out of 10 for Haresbrook Park Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 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 4.674 for Haresbrook Park Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (87 Excellents x 5) + (42 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 129 Ratings = 4.674
  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 4.965 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Haresbrook Park Care Home is based on 11 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 57 registered maximum number of service users is 11.4. 11 Positive Reviews ÷ 11.4 = 0.965
  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.
