Harnham Croft Care Home

With a condition like my wife's (Alzheimer's disease), there is no such thing as perfect. That which is in the care provider's power to contract is done to the very best that can be expected, is all I could ask for.

I visited a lady in Harnham Croft over two years and met many staff. They were all so kind, caring and attentive, whatever their role. The senior staff were so professional and I knew my friend was in the safest hands. I would highly recommend this care home.

We were weekly visitors to one of your residents from July until last week, and the standard of care and friendliness shown by your staff to our friend was immense. He could not have been looked after any better. They always had time to stop and chat.

My mother entered the home following a fall and a month in hospital. Her life changed at this point. The nursing care she received at this time was wonderful from all the staff. The nurses and carers always treated her with the utmost dignity. Staff always had time for family to discuss any matters concerning them. A positive experience at a difficult time.

My husband needed respite and was allocated a bed attic. He suffers with extreme anxiety and finds any change difficult. His stay at the home was excellent, all staff were very welcoming, enthusiastic, and professional. They made him feel safe and secure at all times, considering all his needs. They were friendly and nothing was too much trouble for them. This made his short stay an enjoyable experience and we would both recommend this home to others.

I am very pleased with the all-round care of my husband at Harnham Croft Care Home. Individual concerns are well attended to and the general care is excellent.

My father received excellent care. The home was always clean and tidy and there was someone around to answer any questions we had. Staff were attentive and caring. Management were very approachable and gave us amazing support.

My father was here for four weeks receiving palliative care. All the staff were brilliant, from the chefs to the cleaners, the care staff and nurses. Nothing was too much trouble for any of them. They were always compassionate with all of our family.

I was extremely pleased with the care, love and attention given to my husband for the month he was in this care home. I would recommend this home to anyone.

Really happy my friend is in there surrounded by caring staff.

The admin staff were lovely. So helpful, friendly and always made to feel our views mattered. Thank you all so much.

Fantastic care for my Grandad. Super attentive and down to earth. Clean areas and always on hand to assist. Our grandad was in good hands throughout. Was there to support family as well as Grandad. Thank you to the lovely staff at Harnham Croft.

Although staff are very busy nothing is too much trouble to explain and talk through worries about resident.

3) Food. Could you offer a bedtime drink between 8-10pm?

My father was admitted for end of life care after a somewhat-traumatic experience in hospital. The staff and management could not have been kinder or more attentive to his needs and his care. They allowed him to die with dignity and with his self respect intact. I cannot thank the staff enough for making this possible. Their attention to detail was impressive, nothing was too much trouble for them and they went out of their way to make visiting relatives (some of whom had travelled long distances) feel welcome.

A special mention to the nurse/management who has been an incredible support. She is friendly, professional and exceptional at her job.

Nurses and carers have cared for my grandad at the end of his life with dignity and respect. They have gone above and beyond for our family.

Would they return to Harnham Court? A definite 'Yes'!

Harnham Croft have been outstanding in the care of my mother-in-law. She was very poorly when she arrived at Harnham Croft in November 2020 without their absolute dedicated care and help she would not have recovered to where she is now. Even with Covid 19 we were informed and assisted as much as possible in relation to her welfare and our allowed visits. Thank you all so very much; you have been marvellous in every way possible.

The staff continue to provide a caring and kind service in spite of all the difficulties this year has presented. A big thank you to all the staff in their efforts to keep residents safe and well. I appreciate the personal touches and acts of kindness shown to my friend at all times.
