All I can say is staff are amazing, really helpful and have done so much for my mom over the last few weeks. Really glad my mom's in here. Plenty of activities going on, good that even the manager comes round making sure everything is fine. Lovely place, might move in myself.

I try to visit my sister as often as I can and always find her being well cared for. The staff I find go out of their way to look after their residents, very friendly for what I have seen, in my visits. I also find the home very clean, I was there today 19/8/23 and found all well.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has been a resident of The Hurstway since February 2023. I cannot sufficiently express our gratitude to the staff team for everything they have done for our mother. They are a fantastic team, well-managed and incredibly committed. The home has a warm and friendly feel. Communication with us
is fantastic and nothing is too much trouble for them. My brother and I wish to thank them for their dedication and we cannot recommend the home highly enough. Should you need to find an establishment to care for an elderly relative we would readily suggest giving the Hurstway a call and visiting.
Reply from Sarah Archer, Home Manager at Hurstway Care Home

We really appreciate you taking the time to leave this wonderful feedback for the team at the Hurstway. It is a pleasure to look after your mom. We would also like to thank you for your and your family's ongoing support.

Review from F B (Daughter of Resident) published on 15 June 2023 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
When Hurstway Care Home was suggested as a possible place for Mom's care. we were very wary due to previous knowledge and some of the reviews we saw. We paid an on spec visit with literally five minutes warning and were pleasantly surprised. The manager showed us round answering any queries we had.
The vibe we got from the whole visit was a very positive one. Mum has been a resident since the end of April and we couldn't be happier with the care she is getting. Every single member of staff from cleaners, management, carers and kitchen staff do everything possible to make residents as comfortable and happy as possible

Review from B R (Resident) published on 5 June 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Became a resident at Hurstway Care Home on the 23rd February 2022. It was my first experience of being in a home. l was made welcome and staff were friendly and helpful from the start. I got settled into my room and became more aware of the routine. All staff, from management to carers, were really
helpful and gave me full attention. Been here for fifteen months and it has become my home. l am happy here and really grateful for the love and kindness they have shown me. One of the beautiful ladies at Hurstway reassured me and took me out after years of being indoors. The activities lady has been super great and never fails to put a smile on all of our faces. She made this place very bright for us and therefore I am thankful for her. I have loads of friends here and a lot of company to keep me going. I love it here and l hope to remain here, at Hurstway, the rest of my days.

Review from Angela T (Daughter of Resident) published on 4 June 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
It is always heartbreaking to make the decision as a family to place your mother into care. We could not provide 24/7 care, for my mother's complex needs. But the Hurstway Care Home do.
As a family we could not be happier with the planning, support and handover provided by the home's Manager. She
promised us our mother would be in safe, caring hands. She was right! The staff are all wonderful, thoughtful, caring and make our mother very happy.
In my mother's words 'the staff are lovely, very caring, I could not wish to be anywhere better'.
We can't thank the staff enough for making our mother comfortable and happy.
Reply from Leigh-Anne Kettle, Home Manager at Hurstway Care Home

Thank you so much for your kind words, Angela. It is an absolute pleasure to care for your mother! Yourself and family have been amazing and the sweet treats are very much appreciated. As always we would like to thank you for your continued support and look forward to continuing working together to provide the best possible care for your mom.

Review from Kimberley W (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 13 December 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We recently had to make the sad decision to put my nan into a nursing home due to her declining dementia. We, as a family, went and looked at many different nursing homes. This was the best nursing home we found. The staff and manager were so friendly towards us and the residents. My nan often refuses
care, and the staff do everything they can to help persuade her. They are always engaging with us about how best to help her the most. They are like the residents are family. The atmosphere is welcoming and calm. The residents are always dressed appropriately, and their clothes are clean. I have had dealings with quite a few homes, and I wish I had found this home sooner. I can't thank all the staff enough. They have made the hard decision easy and stress-free.

Current Review Score: 8.3 (8.329)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.3 (8.329) out of 10 for Hurstway Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 3 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.6 out of 5 from 3 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.722 for Hurstway Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (26 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 36 Ratings = 4.722
  2. 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 3.607 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Hurstway Care Home is based on 3 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 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 = 3.25
    2. 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 42 registered maximum number of service users is 8.4. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 8.4 = 0.357
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
