Staff and management could not have done more to help me arrange suitable care for both of my parents with their differing dementia and general old age needs. They continue to be kind and attentive to them both, giving me peace of mind. This home manages to combine a bright and clean environment with
a high standard of care. All staff are friendly and seem to take a real interest in their elderly clients, despite their significant workloads.

My mother has lived at Hadrian House for just over a year and I am very satisfied with the care she has received. The staff are very busy with many demands on their time, but they aim always to be responsive. It does mean though that it is sometimes difficult to get through to speak to my mother on
the phone. This is particularly important to me as I live at a distance.
We feel that the staff know her, are kindly and attentive and allow her to be as independent as possible. The home is clean and well run with a welcoming ambience. It is bright and airy and the wide corridors make it easy to move around. My mother enjoys the view from her room and especially from the large sitting room windows which give a view of the activity in the village below and a vista of the landscape beyond - all of which keeps her engaged.

Hadrian House made the difficult job of moving my 96 year old father and step-mother into care much easier than anticipated. The staff were compassionate and welcoming and are genuinely interested in the people they look after. They have handled all of their care needs and issues with falls and illnesses
very well. Medical professionals have been brought in to assess and treat both of them as needed and even had them admitted to hospital when they were very poorly while we were out of the country. As needs have changed, Hadrian House have adapted the care plans to accommodate these changes. It is very reassuring to know that they are in a safe and caring environment.

To have to hand the care of someone very special to you to somebody else is a very hard thing to do. It has been made bearable due to the amazing care, help and support from a fantastic team of people much more than we could have hoped for. A very big thank you to everyone, we appreciate it very much.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.615)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.615) out of 10 for Hadrian 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 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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 4.615 for Hadrian House is calculated as follows: ( (133 Excellents x 5) + (37 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (4 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 182 Ratings = 4.615

  • 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 Hadrian House is based on 15 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 63 registered maximum number of service users is 12.6, which has been reached with 15 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.

Job Title: Home Manager

Joined: 2014

I joined Care UK in 2014 as I knew it was a great company to work for. It was rapidly becoming the number one care provider in the UK (which it’s subsequently achieved) and I wanted to be on board!


I’m an experienced home manager and have also worked as an operational manager in a housing association. I think to be a success in this role you need to be a combination of things: kind and caring, as well as organised, driven and innovative.


I love working at Hadrian House. We have a wonderful team here, who I’m hugely proud of, and I enjoy all day every day. We’re working hard to achieve our goals, and evidencing the great care we provide, so we’re ready to match – or hopefully enhance – our rating at our next CQC inspection.
