Everyone takes the time to talk and answer any questions you may have.
It's a lovely friendly, welcoming place to visit. The management of it all is excellent. If I ever have to end up in a home, this is where I would want to be.

Two years ago, following the death of her husband, increasing frailty in her own health, and her family residing overseas, my friend had to move to residential care. Her son in law and I visited many care homes prior to our decision that Hammerwich Hall was the most suitable choice to care for her needs.
Set in peaceful surroundings, the home is welcoming, clean and bright. Staff offer outstanding care, respect, patience and compassion to their residents. The transition from independent living to residential care is not necessarily one smoothly achieved, yet the staff have done everything within their power to make this as pain-free as possible. The home offers a variety of well organized social activities and outings and whilst residents are encouraged to engage in these, their right to 'opt out' is also respected. Residents are encouraged to personalize their bedrooms into their 'home from home'. The staff are welcoming to visitors and the management team is always accessible.

Reply from Erica Neal, Manager at Hammerwich Hall Care Home

Moving into a Care Home is not always an easy decision to make. We do endeavour to go the extra mile to make "our home your home" and are pleased you are happy with our care and service.

Since our Father/Grandfather has moved into Hammerwich Hall, he has received fantastic care. The staff are attentive and show a real understanding of his needs and requirements. He entered with mid-stage dementia which has, over the last few months progressed but they have always shown a great understanding
of the condition and have always been patient even when he has the really bad days. He is monitored regularly and the home has even invested in new monitoring equipment throughout the whole home as well as a pressure mat just for him as he is no longer capable of alerting the staff using the usual triggers. On his worst days, we have entered his room to find some of the carers sitting with him helping him to eat, just chatting to him or holding his hand to comfort him. Finally, the residents themselves are lovely people that make everyone including the relatives feel welcome into the home. We feel this is more than just a care home it's like a home from home.

Reply from Erica Neal, Manager at Hammerwich Hall Care Home

Thank you for a lovely positive review, we do try our very best to make Hammerwich Hall feel like home from home and it is good to know that you feel we have achieved that.

In looking for a care home for my mother-in-law I visited six care homes in the area and found that Hammerwich Hall run now by Advinia was far the better home for my mother-in-law. In cleanliness and staff, smartness and professionalism. The variety of food was the best for choice. The dignity the staff
and management provide is far above and beyond their duty, nothing is too much trouble. We were anxious at the initial entry into the home but we had no need to worry, my mother-in-law is most happy at Hammerwich Hall which makes us as a family at ease.

Reply from Erica Neal, Manager at Hammerwich Hall Care Home

It is always good to know that the service we provide is a positive experience for both resident and relatives. We endeavour to go the extra mile to give a great care experience and make Hammerwich Hall as much like home from home as possible. Thank you for taking the time to review our Home.

Mum moved into Hammerwich last summer after an accident that sadly meant she was unable to return home to live independently. It has been a very emotional time for her but the staff have all been very supportive and extremely caring in helping her to settle in. It is an extremely clean, bright, homely
place where we, as her family, are always made to feel welcome by all members of staff. She is treated with dignity and is encouraged to join in activities by the staff and the activities coordinator, who is doing a great job.

Reply from Erica Neal, Manager at Hammerwich Hall Care Home

Thank you for your complimentary comments, our activity coordinator is a great asset to the home. I and my team strive to achieve the best outcome for our residents; I am pleased your experience of our home for your mum is a positive one.

My Mother constantly remarks how lovely her room is and how happy she is at Hammerwich Hall. She says she feels safe and well looked after.
My Wife and I feel confident of the care my Mother receives and are kept well informed of any issues that may arise.
To sum up, we are delighted that she is so
happy and well cared for.

It would be difficult to criticise any aspect of the care given to my father during his 4-week convalescent stay at Hammerwich.


In addition, the administration and the effective and sensitive communication and attention given to his wife, myself his daughter and other interested members of the family

were exemplary.


At the age of 94, after a serious illness and 2 weeks in hospital, he was very weak, had lost weight and was generally very low both physically and psychologically.


The care he received resulted in significant weight gain, a recovery of his appetite, which has been maintained since and a general air of optimism and return to his old self.


As well as the personal treatment and care given to my father, the entertainment, stimulation and general positivity of all the staff made the experience as good as it could possibly be in the circumstances.


The cost of care at Hammerwich is by no means the cheapest on the market but for us was worth every penny.

Reply from Erica Neal, Manager at Hammerwich Hall Care Home

It was a pleasure caring for your father, seeing him progress so positively is what makes our job so worthwhile and reminds us of why we chose to work in Care....
" Our Golden Moments".Thank you for a lovely review.

I am extremely pleased with the care provided at Hammerwich Hall Care Home. Unfortunately, my Father passed away while my mother was in your home. You were very understanding and caring to my Mother and indeed the rest of the family when they came to visit. All staff are excellent, giving care and support
when needed without any hesitation. My mother has settled really well and is now socialising with encouragement from staff and beginning to join in with the varied activities provided. Thank you.

Have found this home to be very friendly, quiet and clean. We visit every week and are welcomed by the manager and resident staff. Activities keep the patients occupied and the menus look good and variable. We are treated to a cup of coffee and biscuits which makes our visit more enjoyable. We are looking
forward to the Summer months and maybe spending time in the garden grounds. Parking is easy and convenient.

Just before Christmas, we were seeking urgent respite for my mother. We arrived unannounced at Hammerwich Hall at 8pm in the evening for a viewing. As soon as we stepped into the beautiful hallway we knew that we had found a lovely, warm, welcoming, clean home. Both staff and residents were friendly
and helpful and the rooms were immaculate. Circumstances have dictated that my mother is still there three months later. Throughout that period we have not had one cause for complaint or concern. This home is a real gem.

Dad has lived at Hammerwich Hall for over seven years and we are very happy with the overall standard of his care and believe his needs are met at the Hall. He is treated with respect by the staff who refer to him by name. If he has any medical issues, they are dealt with quickly and we are informed
of any problems which might arise. Dad is happy in his room and just uses it to sleep, he prefers to sit in one of the lounges where he enjoys joining in with activities such as Communion services, Bingo and other activities put on by the Activities Manager. Dad’s room is kept clean and tidy and we are informed if he is in need of any particular toiletries or clothing on a regular basis. Dad enjoys the food and always has a choice of where and what he eats. If any issues arise, they are dealt with very quickly and the Hall manager responds quickly to emails and sends minutes out of meetings regularly.

My mother-in-law has made a big improvement since moving into care at Hammerwich Hall. She seems more alert and appears to be happy to take part in activities going on in the home, which can only be down to the good care from all the staff. She is able to move around the home safely as her room is on
the ground floor. All the staff are very helpful and friendly.

I spoke with care home manager to discuss dad's care needs in a review.
I was very impressed with the thoroughness and detailed knowledge of dad's condition and needs.
All the carers that I've met treat Dad with kindness and respect, in spite of the fact that he can be a tricky customer.
Everyone
seems to go beyond the remit of caring for him - including taking the time and trouble to engage with him in his particular interests and preferences.

I am very satisfied that my mother is being treated with care, respect and kindness.
This is a lovely place for her to be and she tells me that she feels safe, very well looked after and has plenty of things to be involved with.
The staff all seem to me to be excellent including the management.
The
village post office and general store closed recently which is a shame but that's not Bupa's fault.

From the moment I stepped through the door I knew Mom would love it. She only went for a week's respite but loved it so much she is now going to be a permanent resident. She is like a "new person" and so happy.

We visited Hammerwich Hall for an aunties 90th birthday party. There was a singer for entertainment and they set our a "tea room" for relatives and the auntie after they made us so welcome. The staff were genuine and so caring.
It was a lovely afternoon and meant a lot to the family.

My sister has been a resident for just over a month now and says she is very comfortable and happy, something I never expected because she is very discerning, to say the least. There are no unpleasant smells when you enter and everywhere is spotlessly clean and the staff are very thoughtful and genuinely
care for the residents. My sister so far enjoys most of the meals from the daily multi-choice menu and it is a pleasure to see the dining room always neatly laid out with table cloths and fresh serviettes. The three lounges are very pleasant and there is a nice feel of homeliness about the place. She enjoys the many daily activities that are provided like art and crafts, bingo, play your cards right, seed planting, flower arranging etc. Each month a visit by a musical artist is made with a light buffet to follow and I must say that the two that we have attended have been excellent. Music and song is a good way in getting the residents to participate in some way despite their disabilities.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.659)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.659) out of 10 for Hammerwich Hall Care 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 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.659 for Hammerwich Hall Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (166 Excellents x 5) + (76 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 246 Ratings = 4.659

  • 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 Hammerwich Hall Care Home is based on 21 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 39 registered maximum number of service users is 7.8, which has been reached with 21 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.
