  • Rathmore House, London
Rathmore House is a quality care home with specialist care for people living with dementia.

Situated in a quiet residential street in the Swiss Cottage district of Camden, Rathmore House is an ivy-covered, Grade II listed Edwardian building with an attractive landscaped front and back garden. A renovation in early 2012 transformed the interior of the home, which now boasts contemporary furnishings, stylish print wallpaper and state-of-the-art facilities.

Rathmore House offers its residents an inspirational life, filled with meaningful activities and supported by care staff committed to C&C's Principles of Care, which promise respect, independence and dignity.

The focus is on an ‘Out Not In’ approach that looks holistically at both mind and body acknowledging that engagement with society and nature is key to experiencing life. It uses everyday events to stimulate and maintain cognitive function and uses retained conditioned behaviour as a tool to encourage engagement and reduce anxiety.

My uncle and his late partner first came to Rathmore House early 2023. Whilst I live in Australia since that date I have visited UK six times and Rathmore House multiple times each visit. I continue to be thoroughly impressed by the level of care afforded and believe my uncle couldn't be in better
care.
Reply from Chrissie Guest, Care Co-ordinator at Rathmore HouseThank you - we appreciate you taking the time to leave us such a lovely review. We are pleased that you feel Rathmore House has been a good home for your Uncle and his late partner and look forward to welcoming you again when you are able to visit next!

Rathmore is a small care home, so staff and residents get to know each other. Where I've given 4 stars, it's because there may be room for improvement, not because I have any particular criticism. I have heard some criticism of the food. I wish there were more activities outside the home, but I know
that's difficult. Perhaps there should be more staff.
Reply from Chrissie Guest, Care Co-ordinator at Rathmore HouseThank you for your valuable feedback. We are aware there were some issues with the food which we have taken steps to resolve by working with our chefs to introduce new menus which our residents seem to be enjoying. In terms of activities we are looking to introduce some new options to meet the various needs and interests of our residents and increase the frequency of those sessions they really enjoy. Over the summer a number of outings were arranged, and we have plans for an upcoming Christmas trip. But were also always happy to get input from family and loved ones with any suggestions for new activities or days out so please reach out to the home if you have any ideas. Thank you for taking the time to write a review, as I said we really do appreciate all feedback as this helps us to improve.

With just 20 residents, Rathmore House has a kindly but relaxed and unrestrictive atmosphere. The layout is open and welcoming, the decor unpretentious , and much of the original Victorian building and garden is unchanged. Meals are often excellent, cooked on site, and if weather invites we are able
to eat in the garden. Visitors can stay as long as they like and I greatly appreciate being allowed to be as involved as I wish in my mother's day. Rathmore House is very well located for short outings, such as in a wheelchair. It's about 15 minutes walk from beautiful park. The area itself provides an interesting saunter, being lined with trees and fascinating Victorian mansions and leading to a pleasant little park behind the theatre.
Most important of all, Rathmore House has some lovely, caring members of staff, whose warmth, kindness and sense of humour has kept this particular family member's head above water on frequent occasions!
Reply from Chrissie Guest, Care Co-ordinator at Rathmore HouseThank you for taking the time to provide such lovely feedback. We are very proud of our beautiful home and the team work hard to make sure it is a warm, homely and friendly environment for everyone who lives there. It is also great to hear that our team have been able to be supportive to you when needed and I will make sure that your feedback is passed on to them so they receive the acknowledgement they deserve. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review - it is really appreciated.

Rathmore House is friendly and fosters a family atmosphere. It is small enough to provide individual care which is so important. I represent 5 friends who have formed a team to visit and support our old friend who has now lived in Rathmore House for 4 years. The garden is an excellent space when the
weather allows, and activities such as art projects and parties are very well organised and enjoyed by all. Outings are challenging to organise for these residents, and we hope the current local funding will help with providing even more outings.
Reply from Chrissie Guest, Care Co-ordinator at Rathmore HouseThank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review. The team works very hard to provide a warm and homely atmosphere - not just for residents but visitors too and they will be pleased that this is seen and acknowledged. In terms of outings, we are working closely with our Engagement Officer to ensure that all opportunities for activities and outings for our residents are explored and maximised and I know there are a number of plans underway for the coming months - more information on these will be shared within the home. Thank you again for your kind feedback.

I have supported more than one member of my family as a resident of Rathmore House over the past 4 - 5 years. I have always found the staff very supportive and caring. I have never observed any of them 'time-wasting', if they have a free moment they spend it with one or other of the residents. The house
is clean and tidy, mostly well-maintained and smelling fine. The garden is a great safe outdoor space which is generally welcoming and a good place to sit in when visiting with your resident. As a relative of a resident, I have experienced much support for my own needs, particularly from the office and management. It is not easy to choose a care home for one's loved ones but I have never regretted my choice of Rathmore House.
Reply from Chrissie Guest, Care Co-ordinator at Rathmore HouseThank you so much for your kind words about Rathmore House.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My cousin has been at Rathmore House for almost 5 years and suffers from mixed dementia. He has been very settled while has been at the home and is well looked after by the team of carers. There always seems to be a homely feel to Rathmore House, and staff do very well to make the residents feel part
of a family. The home is kept very clean. Support when necessary from external providers, i.e. NHS, doctor, mental health services, always appears to be prompt which is much appreciated and ensures continued care for the residents. The home is situated in a quiet area reasonably accessible by public transport, and has a secure garden which is used by residents in the Summer. I am very content that my cousin is well cared for which is very reassuring.

My partner has been a resident at Rathmore House since August 2020. In that time his dementia has inevitably progressed a lot, but the excellent care, love and understanding he has received has never wavered for a moment. His emotional and medical needs have always been fully and sympathetically met
and I am so grateful to all the staff, especially one staff member in particular who has been an inspiring and exceptional manager. I am so sorry that she is leaving, but she leaves a wonderful institution behind her.
Reply from Chrissie Guest, Care Co-ordinator at Rathmore HouseThank you so much for your feedback. We are very proud of our wonderful care team at Rathmore who all work so hard to create an environment where our resident's individual needs are fully supported. I will make sure to pass on your thanks to the manager and the rest of the team.

My mother is very well looked after by a very kind, loving and attentive staff.
She is always very well-groomed, clean, and well-fed.
Her well-being and health are closely monitored and timely action is taken. The family are kept informed of any developments.
The staff engage in conversation with
her and encourages her to take part in activities.
My mother has found a new lease of life since she moved to Rathmore House 18 months ago.
The family are thankful and appreciates the love, kindness and professionalism of the management and the staff.

Our relative has advanced dementia and poor mobility. She is not very sociable and is preoccupied with her next meal. In the year she has spent at Rathmore House, her mobility has improved because of staff encouragement. The staff are very friendly and engage with her, and sometimes she responds with
a smile and an acknowledgment of their efforts. The ambiance of Rathmore House is pleasant, cheerful, and positive. It’s nice to be able to visit our relatives without feeling any anxiety.

My mother moved to Rathmore House just over a month ago. She suffers from the dementia/Alzheimer's package and before the move, she really hadn't left her bed for six months. Within three days of moving to Rathmore, she was coming downstairs and socialising which she continues to do. Her overall mood
and appearance have both changed dramatically: she is brighter, happier and more positive. When I visit I notice that all the staff are kind and treat the residents with great respect and understanding. They are also very friendly towards their residents' visitors - I always get offered coffee/tea and a cake! I must also say that while we all understand these are difficult times for both our loved ones and ourselves, the management and staff at Rathmore have made the whole process of finding a safe and caring environment for our elderly relatives that much easier.

My mother came to Rathmore during the lockdown of 2021. I can honestly say the care and attention she has received from all the caring staff has been excellent. The Manager is a super caring person, giving me confidence in the service that is provided by Rathmore House. This is a small care home and
it feels like an extended family. We are always made to feel welcome and all the staff are always willing to listen to our concerns or to update us on mum's activities. There are activities organised regularly for all the residents that they are encouraged to participate in, art, dance, music etc. The food is wholesome and tasty and prepared fresh every mealtime. She recently had her 90th birthday, Rathmore made a tea party for her with a birthday cake too to celebrate. I am really pleased that mum came to Rathmore, she has definitely flourished here.
Reply from Chrissie Guest, Care Co-ordinator at Rathmore HouseThank you for such a lovely review, Maria.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Sadly in Nov. 2018, my husband's Alzheimer's condition developed so bad that I had to part with him. After two wrong choices of care homes, our daughter found out Rathmore House. Its manager came to assess my husband and she made him feel so relieved and comfortable that he felt readily at home when
he started his now three years residence. The main reason is the genuine care provided by all lovely carers well managed by the manager, never heard any complaint of tiredness or resentment from them.
Rathmore is homely like a family house and we enjoy the garden where birthdays are unmistakably celebrated. The way Rathmore has dealt with Covid restrictions has been made smooth for the relatives as much as for the residents through window or skype contacts and the cosy pod.
My husband is still a happy eater... probably due to the chef's talent.
It is a pleasure to see how the residents are securely going around as if they were still at home, as a relative, I found a consoling second family.
Reply from Chrissie Guest, Care Co-ordinator at Rathmore HouseWe are so pleased that your husband is happy and settled at Rathmore House and that you all feel part of the Rathmore 'family'. I know that our teams strive hard to provide a home from home environment and particularly throughout Covid did all they could to ensure contact with relatives and loved ones was maintained in a safe way for all. Thank you for your feedback - I will make sure to pass this on to the Team at Rathmore.

From the day that my mother moved into Rathmore House, the Manager and the entire team have ensured that mum has felt calm, well looked after, and loved. This extends to the rest of the family, we have also felt cared about and well informed every day as to what is happening. It’s one of the hardest
decisions we have ever had to make, moving mum to a care home, but Rathmore’s kindness, experience, and the amazing way they are with all the residents and their families have made everything so much easier. I cannot thank the Manger and the team enough.

My mother moved to Rathmore House from another care home outside London a few weeks ago. I was anxious about moving her as she has Alzheimer's and vascular dementia and is not able to understand what's happening. But with the recent COVID pandemic, I have not been able to travel to visit her so often
and the visits have been shorter, so a move to be closer to me was essential. I'm pleased to say it has been a success and my mum has settled in very well. She's recognising me more and is smiling a great deal. The atmosphere at Rathmore House is very special. It feels more like a home than a care home. Everyone I have met has been so friendly and welcoming, but also extremely responsive. The moving process, too, was great. They dealt with the transfer very effectively and safely and organised the logistics. They even lent me a wheelchair and asked me to chose the paint colour of my mum's new room. Very happy indeed.

My cousin has been a resident of Rathmore House for 16 months during which time he has become much more settled and comfortable despite his dementia diagnosis. No matter the circumstances, the carers at Rathmore House display great empathy to the residents, and appear very supportive, and always willing
to assist. The home is managed very well by the manager, who likes her staff to interact with the residents making them feel at home and part of a family. The home has a very homely feel and I am sure the residents appreciate that. The home is very quick to identify any special needs for residents and is well supported by the local health authority. I highly recommend Rathmore House.

(1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 3.825
    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 20 registered maximum number of service users is 4, which has been reached with 13 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.
