My dad moved into the home in February, and we were delighted that he has settled in really quickly. My dad was so independent living on his own. All members of staff have been excellent at making him feel at home.

We were impressed after our initial tour of Hawkhill House for my mum who has dementia and didn't feel that we needed to view anywhere else. Hawkhill House is very homely, the rooms are a good size and all with ensuite and tv's. It has an open-door policy so you can visit at any time, staff allow access and is therefore very secure. There are daily activities displayed on their wall which we like to look at. The staff are caring and treat residents with dignity. Mum has settled in and appears relaxed and happy there. Relatives are encouraged to make suggestions and feel involved. Excellent overall.

From the moment I entered Hawkhill House, I was impressed by the general atmosphere and friendliness of the staff I met. Sadly, my wife was only in the home for four days and was unable to take part in activities other than watching the lovely pantomime put on by the staff. Throughout that time, everyone was extremely kind and caring and I knew she was being very well looked after.
I was impressed by the professionalism of the staff and the very obvious positive team spirit. It was clear that everyone enjoyed their work in Hawkhill and this good feeling is transmitted to visitors and residents.
The manager should be very proud of the team she has built up.
Thank you all very much for helping me and our family through such a difficult period in our lives.
Thank you, for your kind words and recognition of the team at Hawkhill House. We are sorry for your loss, and we are pleased that your wife received the care that she deserved while she was staying with us. Your comments will be passed on to the team.
My father is 96 and was admitted to Hawkhill House, a couple of weeks ago. Since that day, I have felt a sense of relief that my father is being so well cared for. He says the food is ‘first class’ and the nurses and staff are kind and caring. My experience with the Manager and her staff is that...
I first rang Hawkhill 2 weeks ago to get help for my father (I live in New Zealand and had just arrived). The Manager and a senior Nurse came and assessed him within 3 hours, and with both his and my agreement, moved him into the care home the same day. Since then, his appetite, general demeanour, mobility and conversation have all improved beyond expectation. I can only thank them all for their continued kindness, calm professionalism and genuinely caring attitude, which prevails throughout Hawkhill House.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are so pleased to read your positive comments about your father’s care at Hawkhill House, and it is lovely to hear he is settling in at the home and enjoying the food that’s provided.

I would like to thank everyone for the service and care every time we came in he was cheery and he said he liked the activities and concepts, food and company.

It's very difficult to live so far away and depend on others to care for her.

I was invited to join my mother in preparing and then enjoying the meal which was cooked in situ. It was a great opportunity to bond with my mother in a scenario just like we used to do when she lived independently.

My mother has been here for 4 years - the reason we chose Hawkhill was because of its homely feel, unlike other homes in the area. Overall she has had a good experience, treated and cared for well! Staff do a good job and act upon queries efficiently.

The basics of cleanliness and nutrition are wonderful.
For me, the amount of activities and organisation the staff do day-to-day is just outstanding, and the compassion shown to every person there is just the best.
It was a sad day when, because of dementia, my aunt could no longer care for herself, and I had to find a home for her; however, choosing Hawkhill care home was indeed the best decision I could have made.

Each resident is a unique and special individual; I am hugely privileged to have the opportunity to work in the care industry. Every day brings opportunity, and I want to play my part to enable each resident to know that they have an amazing purpose and find fulfilment in everything they do.
Everyone has a unique set of skills and talents, and I want to help our residents to both utilise and build these. In a great team of colleagues, I want to play my part to the full to help both residents, those close to them and my colleagues all thrive individually and collectively.

I love getting to know residents on a one-to-one basis and hearing all their stories. I like to make sure activities are meaningful for each resident.

Lovell Castrence is our Site Maintenance Officer at Hawkhill House.
