Our initial meeting was professional and reassuring, helping us through a difficult time. We couldn't have asked for a better room and we could rest easy that mum was being looked after. We were very happy with the care she received during her final months.

Harnham Croft is in an idyllic setting and very conducive to the relaxed atmosphere that I always find when visiting my mother. The carers and other staff are always considerate, warm and compassionate. My mother's condition, I believe, has improved over that last months and she appears very happy and
content in her life.

I visited my sister from 11.50am to 2 pm on Thursday 11th April. She was happy, well turned out and had just had her hair done. I had lunch with her. The meal was set out on a table for two and was delicious, nutritious and well balanced. The correct attention had been given to my sister's diabetic
diet. The carers serving the food made sure that the quantity was to our liking. After lunch, I left my sister happily settling down to watch a film show with the other residents.

The management and staff of this homework incredibly hard to provide a happy, caring and relaxed atmosphere for my father to live in. Nothing is too much trouble for them, they are always cheerful and patient and professional. My father is safe, well-fed and comfortable. The home is beautifully clean,
the views are amazing and I am always made to feel very welcome when I drop in. Very good all round.

My mother was in Harnham Croft Care Home for 3 months, receiving palliative care. The care was excellent and I was kept informed at all times. I can't praise all the staff enough for the support they gave me and the family from beginning to end.

My father lives in a peaceful, caring and pleasant environment. It is clean and tranquil with lovely food and delightful nature right outside.
The staff are highly professional and caring.
The standard of everything is very high, only occasionally so I wonder if they may need more staff available
at times. He is very happy and well looked after, which makes us happy.

I can only praise all aspects of the care my mother receives at Harnham Croft Care Home it may not be her own home but its the next best thing! All staff are wonderful to her and all the other resident's nothing is too much trouble for them. I live 200 miles away from Salisbury and I have no need to
worry about her as I know she is being well cared for.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5

This one of the better care homes that I have been involved with, but it is not brilliant. Most of the staff are kind and caring, but there are one or two who do not have the patience to look after elderly people and treat them as naughty children. The food is plentiful and edible, but bland and unadventurous.
There is no curry, spicy dishes, or much use of herbs and garlic, but plenty of stodgy cakes and puddings. Housekeeping can be a bit erratic. Bathroom bins aren't always emptied when they need to be, even when full of used continence pads, although generally, the place is clean enough. Laundry gets lost or is sent back to the wrong resident. Activities are fairly banal. As I said, better than average but not brilliant.

My mother has been at Harnham Croft for 2 years. In that time, we have found the management sympathetic and always willing to make the time to see us, if needed.
The nurses and carers go out of their way to try and engage with my mother, and they persevere when this isn't easy. There are many regular
activities organised for residents, and this creates a relaxed community atmosphere. I would be very happy to recommend Harnham Croft to friends.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.770)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.770) out of 10 for Harnham Croft Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.770 for Harnham Croft Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (145 Excellents x 5) + (41 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 187 Ratings = 4.77

  • 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 Harnham Croft Care Home is based on 16 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 40 registered maximum number of service users is 8, which has been reached with 16 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.
