Although Dad was only at Hamilton Park Care Home for a short period of palliative care, I'm glad I found this caring group of human beings to see him through his final days. Staff here are friendly and professional in all aspect of nursing care. Dad was always treated with respect and dignity. He very
much enjoyed the home cooked food, which always looked appetizing. Yes, the building is old and the grounds small, but this home has a warm "homely" feel all thanks to the manager and her wonderful team who are full of kindness and compassion.

My Mother has been a permanent resident at Hamilton Park Nursing Home since the end of January 2025. Hamilton Park was introduced to us by my Mum's social worker and we are very grateful to the Manager and her staff team for all their care and support as my Mum has settled in.
Mum's room is clean,
bright and cheerful and we have been able to make it even more welcoming for her by bringing in her belongings, other familiar items and family photos from her last residence.
Every member of staff that we meet when we visit is always so welcoming, helpful and cheerful and as a family we now all feel part of the Hamilton Park Nursing Home family. We are very grateful to all the staff for their on going care of my Mum.

The manager and care providers are faultless in the way my mother receives her care. We have never had any concerns about the quality of accommodation, meals or treatment provided.
We are always kept informed if there are any concerns about changes to mother's health.
A very dedicated and professional

Dad, who suffers from dementia, has been a resident at Hamilton Park Nursing home since July 2024. Since his admission all of the staff have been fantastic, they absolutely get Dad's needs, which are many both physical and medical, and meet them. Nothing is too much for the staff to support Dad, they
are compassionate, friendly and extremely caring, each and every one of them knows Dad and his needs. Dad is not left alone for hours on end, every day they get him out of bed, dressed and take him down to the lounge with other residents. He is fed well and his personal care is well catered for. I cannot praise, the manager, and all her staff for all that they are doing for Dad, knowing the care that they are giving makes it so much easier for us as a family. Thank you to all of the staff in recognising Dad is still a human being and for treating him as such.

I have Power of Attorney for a friend who has no relatives but is part of our church family.
He was taken ill in early June and despite 4 months in hospital trying to rehabilitate him to go home, they failed to get him out of bed.
Various Care Homes in our town were approached about offering him a
place and in the end Hamilton Park were the only place to do so.
I must say that they have been absolutely wonderful, the staff are so friendly, compassionate and caring. Nothing seems too much trouble for them. Our friend has settled well, very well looked after. The staff get him up every morning and he is taken down to the lounge, which is good for retaining social interaction. Last Sunday, he was taken to the nearby church where he has friends.
I could write so much more about the excellence of Hamilton Park, but all I can say is that they go far and beyond in doing the best they can for each resident, treating them as individuals and promoting the best for each of them.

My mother has been at Hamilton Park for 6 months and is very contented. She joins in all the activities every day, even winning the 10-pin bowling at the age of 102. Her nails are done frequently and at the moment they are sparkly silver, she enjoys the food and seems to eat everything. The best part
of the home is the caring staff, they all seem so patient and kind and retain the residents' dignity as much as possible. Sadly the building is tired, but my mother only sees the care and love she receives.

I understand you are busy however to visit and no carers on the floor at all, with residents alone downstairs is disgraceful and a severe health and safety risk.
Not the first time!

Although my father was not at Hamilton for long, he received the best care from the staff, on visiting they all seemed very friendly and helpful.
The activities and food were great. My only negative would be inside the home especially the bedrooms they could do with updating.
The Manager was always
contactable and quick response.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.696)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.696) out of 10 for Hamilton Park Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 24 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.696 for Hamilton Park Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (223 Excellents x 5) + (48 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) + (2 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 286 Ratings = 4.696

  • 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 Hamilton Park Nursing Home is based on 23 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 32 registered maximum number of service users is 6.4, which has been reached with 23 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.
