There is a real sense of community at Harts House. They offer a seven-day holistic weekly activities programme that incorporates creative, social, physical, musical, animal and recreational activities.

Review from R P (Resident) assisted by family/friend published on 20 August 2019 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Was there only four weeks for respite care which was beneficial. There was a pleasant atmosphere throughout the house and, in general, a good quality of staff who were most caring.
My critical points relate to things like the whiteboard giving the name of the nurse in charge and carers for the day
not kept up to date; some laxity in the timing of giving medication; and each day although the food was good, there was much wastage as portions were huge!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I stayed at Harts House for respite care for four weeks in April 2019.
I found the care of an excellent standard, the whole building of high excellence.
While I was in residence, the entertainment facilities were suspended due to a virus but the few I experienced were set at just the right level for
the residents.

Review from John P (Power of Attorney of Resident) published on 7 June 2019 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
Positives:
Warm and safe environment. Good facilities for those fit enough to use them.


Negatives:
Management - poor advice, nothing followed up (needs continuous prompting eg finance, care).
Care/support - patient often unkempt, poor care of finger/toe nails, poor hygiene at times.
Communication

- no joined-up approach between hospital/GP/patient and nursing staff (patient 'falls down the middle').
Food - significant weight loss over the past 6 months by the patient. This should have been noted by the care staff that the patient's food was often not eaten.
Correspondence - sometimes gets misplaced.

My sister has been at Harts House Care Home for 18 months following a fall at home. Since arriving at Harts House she has been cared for and made comfortable. There are numerous events/activities for the residents which are optional for them to participate in.
The level of care is very good and we
can relax knowing she is safe and looked after.

Excellent loving staff. Staff unstinting with the time they give patients. Not impressed with G.P. but since then my sister has seen other G.P's who seem more aware of her cancer problems.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My auntie stayed at The Grange on respite. I found the home very friendly and the staff were very approachable, any concerns were answered efficiently. I felt I had made the right decision for my auntie as soon as I entered the home, it just felt the right place for her. The manager was very involved
with the residents. The activities in The Grange are excellent and there is something going on every day for everyone to join in a good range of activities.

This facility ticks all the boxes as far as my father is concerned. Both he and my family have been treated with care and compassion especially by the management team who are first class. My Dad has been here only 2 weeks yet we already feel part of the very special family. Thank you to all staff at
Harts House.

My mother was transferred to Harts House from a hospital in Margate for palliative care.

My father has been a resident in Harts House Care Home for palliative nursing care having been discharged from hospital two weeks ago. My mother, sister and I are very impressed with the care dad is receiving. He is treated kindly and with dignity in what are distressing circumstances. All the staff
are professional, kind and caring to us as well as dad. We know he is in safe hands.
I would not hesitate to recommend Harts Houe Care Home.

Mum thinks that overall her experience is very good. She sometimes finds the food, not to her liking. She likes the way that the staff banter with her, and allow her privacy.

Review from Paulette (Daughter of Resident) published on 15 November 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Having looked at numerous care homes for my then 90-year-old mother in 2013, we found Harts House Care Home. The setting, gardens and welcoming attitude in addition to caring staff, mostly excellent meals and organised care plans for each resident resulted in our choice, one which we have not regretted.
My mother is well cared for, warm, comfortable and happy as she can be in her "home from home". Her only sadness is that everything that she and my Dad worked for will be spent on her fees, sadly nothing can alter that. Thriftiness doesn't always pay!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
There is a pleasant atmosphere. One is given a choice of meals sometimes meat is a bit tough. We have breakfast and supper on a tray in our room and lunch in the dining room. There is a lounge, armchairs for activities on five days. One can sit in open at tables overlooking attractive well-kept garden.
Shower twice a week- ones standards slip a bit. Meetings, residents, staff, management and relatives at regular intervals. There is camaraderie. It must be quite hard pushing us about in wheelchairs when necessary I can walk in any room using a stick. We have TV set in our room - Watch in bed until 10pm with round down or switched off.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.682)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.682) out of 10 for Harts House 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 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 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 4.682 for Harts House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (110 Excellents x 5) + (31 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 148 Ratings = 4.682
  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 Harts House Care Home is based on 12 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 12 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.
