Most of the staff are extremely good, however, some of the staff need to be more committed and understand patients' needs. Overall the home is clean, tidy and a friendly environment.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My dad arrived at the home last August 2016. He had ben in a house where he spent his entire time in his room. Since he has been in the Bupa Hornchurch Care Home, he has thrived. He is now really enjoying his food in the company of other residents in the dining room. He enjoys outings and activities
most days of the week. The carers are cheerful and attentive and make him laugh

Review from Stephen B (Friend of Resident) published on 5 April 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My neighbour needed nursing care (vascular dementia) and other issues.
She is 90 years old and we looked at care homes in RM13 and RM12 over a few weeks.
The home we chose was far superior overall.
The whole team at Bupa Hornchurch are on the ball, all striving for the same goal, the people they
care for.
Over many years I have seen care homes where my family and friends have been.
This home is by far the best.
I'm sure my neighbour will be cared for and safe. We have kept an eye on her for 17 years and we would not just put her in any home, we feel this is a wise choice.
Reply from Emily Wilson, Customer Service Administrator at The Hornchurch Care HomeThank you for sharing your kind feedback with us. I am so pleased that you were impressed with The Hornchurch, we wish your neighbour all the best. I will share your feedback with the home's manager. The Bupa Customer Care Team

Review from Pam D (Daughter of Resident) published on 19 December 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
My mother has been a resident since August 2015 and we have been previously very unhappy. Management has changed and over the last few months improved but there is still a lot of improvement required. The rooms are small as said in a previous review, when we arrived our room was in a terrible state,
we painted it for our mum in the colours she wanted but the general maintenance of the building is poor, 'maintenance man' is not good. The room was very dirty, blue tac and holes in the wall from the previous occupant, dull and dingy. Her bedding was ripped! We cried that's how upset we all were, including my mum! Decor is tired.
Mum's clothes often go missing and are often shrunk. The food isn't good, no sugar/salt in food and the cuts of meat are cheap, fatty and hard for them to eat. Soup is not palatable and cake is tasteless. Needs improvement.
The staff, in general, are helpful and friendly. The entertainment is excellent and the entertainments coordinator does a fantastic job.

Review from Linda (Daughter of Resident) published on 28 November 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother does appear to be very happy and well cared for. The only unsatisfactory element is the rooms which for a long stay person are extremely small and basic. I would expect better lighting, in my mother's case, she cannot even see out of the window as the bed is in front of it, better seating
areas in the room and generally more space.

Under new management, standards have been raised including the opportunity to discuss care standards during planned meetings. My mother (and late father) have been here for 4 years and seem happy in their care.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.474)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.474) out of 10 for The Hornchurch Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.474 for The Hornchurch Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (149 Excellents x 5) + (81 Goods x 4) + (11 Satisfactorys x 3) + (4 Poors x 2) + (4 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 249 Ratings = 4.474
  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 The Hornchurch Care Home is based on 21 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (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 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 55 registered maximum number of service users is 11, which has been reached with 21 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.
