The process to be admitted to visit my mother was thorough but professional and courteous, demonstrating the care with which the residents are treated. My mother has been well treated during her time here with excellent physio support.

My dad went into Amberley Hall for end of life care on the 8th December 2020. I can honestly say my dad had the best care we could have asked for, the nurses and staff gave my dad the best care ever, they made our dad last 5 weeks the best they could have given him, the dignity they showed was amazing.
We were very lucky that we were able to go in and see my dad every day wearing the appropriate PPE and having a rapid covid test done. My dad passed away on the 15th Jan and I was really pleased his last 5 weeks as spent at Amberley.

Reply from Jenny Boulton, General Manager at Amberley Hall Care Home

Hi Carole, it was an honour to take care of your father and be supportive to your family. Warmest regards, Jenny and all the Team at Amberley Hall.

Very poor care and communication, have to do things yourself if you want it done to the correct standard. So many changes of manager and staff which do not get told the full needs of residents. Also been slammed by CQC as being unsafe, would not use this home.

The carers were all very kind and caring and the rest of the staff were very friendly. Every effort was made to keep the Coronavirus at bay, with all staff changing on arrival and having their temperature taken. Activities obviously could not take place because of the lockdown but an effort was made
for a member of staff to visit individuals in their rooms for a chat. The lovely, well-kept gardens were very good to sit out and enjoy the sunshine. One thing lacking was a shelter for smokers in wet weather.

Overall very well cared for, all carers did very well in their care for me. No problems with anything at all. If the need arose for any reason I will consider coming to Amberley Hall again. The meals were too much of a big portion for me, small portions on a smaller plate will be better. Laughter is
what I did enjoy most and was a good part of my recovery care, it was good and therapeutic.

The care is great. The staff are very attentive and get to know the resident's individual preferences. The food is excellent which is very important to dad. Its great to have a variety of activities especially when they have all of the animals come in. Animals have a great effect on dad, keep it up.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5

I found the level of care and service to be first class. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff. Indeed, some of the staff went above and beyond the call of duty. I cannot praise them enough. There does, however, appear to be a shortage of physiotherapists because the physio was not always available
on a regular basis. The physiotherapists, themselves were very knowledgeable and dedicated, though overstretched at times. The discharge procedure could be improved, there were too many people involved and, as a result, I wasn't sure what was happening.

Reply from Joan Agcaoli, General Manager at Amberley Hall Care Home

Thank you for your review and I am delighted to hear that you found the care team at Amberley Hall to be first class. We will, of course, feedback your comments to the CCG who place the physiotherapists in the Home and, as a result, are responsible for the discharge of residents under their care.

My dad was given a place at Amberley Hall in January 2019 after five weeks in hospital.
Amberley Hall is a very lovely place to be - a hotel with care!
My dad's room was bright, comfortable, warm and clean. He had all the facilities he needed.
The staff were always polite, professional and friendly,
efficient and extremely caring. The food was great.
Sadly my dad was only there for one week before he passed away but even his death was treated with great dignity and compassion.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.462)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.462) out of 10 for Amberley Hall Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 28 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 25 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.462 for Amberley Hall Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (211 Excellents x 5) + (74 Goods x 4) + (30 Satisfactorys x 3) + (6 Poors x 2) + (6 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 327 Ratings = 4.462

  • b) 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 Amberley Hall Care Home is based on 25 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 106 registered maximum number of service users is 21.2, which has been reached with 25 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
