Staff on the whole are very caring and approachable. They take any concerns I have seriously. Welcoming and friendly at reception, hotel services, very kind, caring and efficient. Food is reasonable, can be bland however catering staff will make sandwiches at request.

Review from S T (Daughter of Resident) published on 21 September 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Overall a very good experience for our father. After a period of illness and settling in my father was comfortable and very well looked after. The day staff were excellent throughout, both in caregiving and support. Night staff were significantly less caring and attentive, causing my father distress.
After I notified the day staff, this situation greatly improved. As a result, my father's sleep and overall health greatly improved.
Suggestions for improved residents' and their families' experiences are:
1. WiFi connection should be significantly upgraded in the bedrooms. Presently, at least on the third floor, this is too poor to operate WiFi communications with family. Strong, reliable internet is now an essential for staying in touch with family and friends, something critical to residents well-being.
2. Laundry services remained a frustration and could be improved. This was apparent in the mixing of my father's clothes with others and the loss of valuable clothes due to shrinking.
Reply from Amanda King, Care Home Manager at Antonine House Care Home

Thank you for your review. It was a pleasure to care for your Father. We aim to achieve high standards within Antonine House, ongoing training for all staff ensures that everyone has an awareness of these standards. This is a continuous process. We are currently having the IT review the WiFi connections. Kind regards.

Review from Kirsty B (Daughter of Resident) published on 17 March 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum moved into Antonine House in January 2021. The manager and staff couldn’t have been more helpful and supportive especially given we had never visited the care home due to Covid. Mum had to complete 14 days of self-isolation however a nurse phoned every evening to keep us informed. From week 3
I have been allowed to visit as an essential visitor due to mum's health. Infection control has been extremely impressive with me required to perform a full test weekly and a lateral flow test 30 mins prior to each visit. Full PPE is worn by the staff and myself so feel confident that the residents are being well protected. Relatives have been kept well informed of the changing guidelines re visiting and from 8/3/21 each resident will be allowed two visits per week which will be great. The manager and team have helped as much as possible to take the stress out of a stressful situation of moving a loved one into a home during lockdown. Thank you!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has been resident in Antonine House for a year now, and my wife and I have been extremely impressed by the dedication and care that the staff have given her, especially in the most trying of circumstances in which we find ourselves. My mother is always very happy when we call or are able to
visit in person, and always speaks so highly of her experience with the staff. Antonine House have coped remarkably well with the pandemic, from what we have seen, carefully controlling access, and enabling video calls, deliveries, etc. We would not hesitate to recommend Antonine House to anyone with complete confidence.

The care and attention to detail of the senior staff members, and those in their charge, was exceptional. Standards of food preparation and choice were very good, cleanliness exceptional, and the determination to provide mental stimulation, entertainment and friendship to the residents was very impressive.
Thank you so much to the senior staff for their counsel, advice and great care of my mother. It was lovely to know you and to share in your kindness.

My mum came into Antonine House in November 2018 and settled in very quickly. As my mum has dementia, this is the perfect place for her as the staff are very patient and encourage her to participate in the activities. I would happily recommend Antonine House as I have been very happy with the care
my mum has received.

I find the dementia floor well staffed with very friendly and efficient male and female carers and nurses. The rooms and public areas are of a high standard and are well equipped and comfortable and are kept very clean and tidy.
Management always tries to introduce new ideas (which should be maintained)
and have a varied programme of activities for the residents.
The meals and snacks are varied and of a high standard with a good range of choices. The garden is spacious and well kept with plenty of seating available. Trips out in the Home minibus are well planned and make for good memories.

My mother is settled and happy in her environment. The staff are pleasant, welcoming and happy to update me on Mum's present status. Over the winter period when she was unwell the staff took great care of her encouraging her to get up, eat and drink.
Her room and en suite is clean, well aired and tidy.
There is a lovely garden with good seating areas which can be accessed on request if on an upper floor .

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Can't rate this facility highly enough. Terrific care, food, environment and commitment to giving the best to residents. Staff continuity is great, motivation and morale are high, as is the dedication to go above and beyond the job. Staff care for the physical/emotional wellbeing of all the family,
not just the resident. The settling in period was very smooth. Nursing and caring staff took ample time to get to know my Mum's needs and they carry out their duties with accuracy and diligence.
The facility itself is excellent, purpose-built, flexible and kept to a high standard.
The staff made things easy at a really stressful time for us they embraced us and the transition was made easy. We have a tremendous faith in what you do at Meallmore and it enriches our family in ways I could not begin to explain. We enjoy visiting and come away happy that we have also done our best for our Mum. The snowy weather saw the manager driving through deep snow to keep Antonine going. They are angels.

Antonine House is a fabulous care facility the staff and management are superb. They very much foster a family atmosphere and are head and shoulders above the competition in this market. I interviewed and researched thoroughly many care facilities before deciding on this one.They very much look after
the resident but also care for the relatives and understand it is often a stressful process to trust others with your loved ones care. The surroundings are outstanding, facilities and activities are great. Meallmore Ltd who own the care home continue to invest in the infrastructure and I consider ourselves very lucky to have a place in Antonine and would recommend it to anyone.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Antonine House is an excellent care home. The quality of the environment is excellent. The standard of care is very good and the range of activities also help to maintain the resident's interests. The quality of food and range of menu claims to be of hotel standard.


However, at the residents and

relatives meetings, there have been complaints that this standard has not been achieved. We have been informed that improvements are being implemented. The management appears efficient but distant, although the residents and relatives meeting attempt to provide a forum to discuss concerns with management. Again these concerns have been noted and improvements implemented.


In general, I find the standard of care to be excellent and I would recommend Antonine House as an excellent care home where the residents are well cared for.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.829)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.829) out of 10 for Antonine House Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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 4.829 for Antonine House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (177 Excellents x 5) + (32 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 211 Ratings = 4.829
  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 Antonine House Care Home is based on 18 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 81 registered maximum number of service users is 16.2, which has been reached with 18 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.
