Review from Angela S (Sister of Resident) published on 24 July 2018 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
I made many complaints about the care my sister received she was unwashed room dirty items from her room missing, had several meetings and got nowhere even when showed care plan filled in two hours early saying she had been turned when no one had. I received a call from administrator to say that they were now shutting down the nursing unit as the home couldn't provide the care the residents deserved. I'm totally relieved the home received an unannounced visit and they found residents unwashed and uncared for. A national newspaper rated it the third worst care home in the UK, please don't send your loved ones there. I have now found a new home for my sister and can finally relax knowing she will be well cared for, she won't be left in bed all day half dressed in just a top and unwashed. I just wish someone would have listened to me sooner.

Review from Maria H (Daughter of Resident) published on 11 April 2018 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
My mam was in the care home 6 months until she died in February, my mam had Alzheimer's and was in the late stage when she went in, she was taken in to hospital in December with sepsis but she was also severely dehydrated, when she went back to the home in January she could no longer weight bare and was in a lot of pain, I was told because of this it would be best she didn't get out of bed. Having to sit at the side of her an tell her she had to use the bed as a toilet was soul destroying she was embarrassed and would say "that's dirty". Because she had Alzheimer's she had lost her dignity and the only bit she had left was taken away from her I believe solely because of the lack of carers. I don't blame the carers their care was excellent but you need to get more as it has been said in a previous review you are losing some of your best carers to other home's because they are of the opinion that because you are understaffed they can't give the care they want to give, I find this really sad.

Review from Simon O (Son of Resident) published on 14 March 2018 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
All staff were absolutely fantastic. Mum was resident for "end of life" care. She was very ill when she went into the home but actually picked up due to the friends she made who were her carers.
My wife said "Not only did they care for your mum, they actually cared about her"

Review from Vanessa H (Daughter of Resident) published on 23 January 2018 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
My father came into the home. The care and support he has received has been very good. The cleanliness of the home and my father's room is excellent. The staff have treated my father with dignity, which to me has been very important. Staff have been understanding and supportive after making the decision that my father needed to be cared for in the home. The meals that my father has been offered is good and he is enjoying the meals that he has had.

Review from Helen J B (Daughter of Resident) published on 18 January 2018 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
I am very happy with my mother's care, she is well cared for. The staff are all lovely and I know that they really do care for her. She is well presented, clean and well fed! If there is a problem of any kind I am informed (telephone or when I visit).
My only concern, and it is a very small one, is the rooms could be updated and more modern, but other than that, all is fine.

Review from L H (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 1 December 2017 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
In general, the care provided to our relative is good. The only issues we have had are the attitude of some of the older members of staff. They show lack of compassion and come across as impatient. The younger members of staff seem to have more time and explain what they are doing try to put our relative at ease.

We are generally happy with the care my mother receives at Hemsworth. The staff appear to care about the resident's welfare and are friendly to visitors.
The provision of stimulation for dementia sufferers appears to be difficult.

Overall Experience
My husband and I have been happy with the care given to my mother in law. She well cared for, clean and looked after physically.
The staff at the home are friendly and welcoming but I feel they could interact more with the residents. Some activities are provided by an activities coordinator but on a general basis, I feel that a member of staff should always sit with the residents in case any fell or just to provide conversation.

Overall Experience
I know the staff have a lot of paperwork, but I really think there should be someone around to deal with everything that happens.
Don't think there is enough supervision/staff presence in the lounge. We saw a man fall. (I have seen bullying).
I bring magazines and take the old ones home.
