Barchester Hempton Field Care Home

Hempton Field is a lovely care home with extremely caring, attentive staff. It is a very pleasant environment, with lovely lounges, a dining room and beautiful gardens, including an inner courtyard where residents who are interested are encouraged to nurture the displays they helped create. I am often aware when visiting of well-organised, fun games and activities which lots of residents enjoy taking part in or watching. There's plenty of opportunity to socialise or just sit with others, but equally, there's no pressure if residents prefer quiet days in their rooms. Nothing seems too much trouble for the staff, and the food is excellent, with the chef keen to find out any particular preferences or favourites. As always, it's the people who really make a place, and the staff at Hempton are wonderful. It has a family feel, and is well-run, and I would highly recommend it.

My dad took up residence at Hampton in June 2022. He had recently been widowed and was reluctant to go into care. However, within a couple of months, he was suggesting that I should get a room there! In short, he became more outgoing and was extremely happy, made friends and connections with other residents and thoroughly enjoyed the company of all staff. Access to my dad was never a problem (Covid permitting), and I was able to visit anytime along with his great-grandson. In his final days, he was looked after with great dignity and care. I cannot praise the staff a Hampton high enough for the love and care that they gave my dad.

I came here for a week's respite following hospitalisation. The atmosphere here was one of peace and rest. The staff were incredible and nothing was too much bother. The food was superb, and without a doubt, I would come again if necessary.

We have only marked down the activities as my relative remains in bed and it might be better if they were moved. The staff are excellent and treat the residents with dignity. The food and drink, we have been told it is very good.

Along with another friend, we visit Hempton twice a month and for the last 2 years meet with them via zoom. We come from the local community church. The staff are all very friendly and caring and assist residents to join us for Bible Club if they want to attend. There is a great homely atmosphere there.

My wife had palliative end of life care for the last three and a half weeks of her life. The nursing and care staff were all wonderful and took great care of her.

A wonderful happy home with an excellent team of professionals dedicated to the care of it's residences happiness and well being. Hempton Field offers a wonderful variety of entertainment and it's always a joy to visit.

My stepfather stayed for six weeks respite care whilst his wife was recovering from a knee operation. Lovely setting with beautiful gardens, attentive staff, excellent food and good variety of activities to keep residents stimulated. Well appointed room with good level of cleanliness. Would highly recommend.

I was very impressed by the care and help they gave to my mother, sorting out her medication so she has now returned to her own home (at her wish) with carers. Friendly, helpful, and caring staff nothing too much trouble.

The loving care given to my husband helped through this very difficult time and also the kindness shown to me.

The care my aunt received during her stay at Hempton Field from every single member of staff was exemplary. Her move from a different county into a new environment was made seamless with no attention to detail spared.

Day and night care included carers and nursing care. Management is without a doubt excellent. Thank you to one and all

Thank you Hempton Field!

A huge thank you to everyone at Hempton Field for keeping my Nan safe, for loving her in our absence and for keeping her smiling! We can’t wait to be able to come and thank you in person and visit Nan but for now, please know that we are eternally grateful to you all!

The staff were most pleasant and helpful. The home was warm and comfortable. Various activities were available every day. First-class!

Would highly recommend. From initial contact and making an appointment to look around, to our father moving in and later leaving, everybody at Hempton Field was caring with a 'can do' attitude. The room and facilities were very clean and comfortable, a very homely, cheerful atmosphere. Updates regarding care were treated seriously and with great sensitivity. Nothing was too much trouble, feel lucky to have been able to access care at Hempton Field for my father.

Excellent carer and friendly and cheerful staff. The food is of a very high standard and much enjoyed.

All members of staff have been supportive, kind and caring in a professional manner.

Our mother’s physical and mental health has fluctuated since she has been at HF and throughout she has received appropriate and necessary care from a team of kind, competent and compassionate staff.

I have been truly cared for in every way during my stay here. The staff all being kind, friendly, efficient. The management have been helpful, sympathetic and diligent at all times. This is my 2nd stay, and would not hesitate to return for a third.
