Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
From our initial appointment with the Director of Nursing, and for the past three months, I have always found a friendly, warm and relaxed atmosphere throughout this beautiful home. All levels of staff, in very smart uniforms where appropriate, are always extremely caring and helpful in a dignified
way.
The residents' rooms are beautifully decorated and furnished. The catering/food is excellent and thoughtfully presented. The conservatory and garden - comfortably laid out furniture with lovely, well kept garden views.

I arrived here on the 1st of January in the evening. From that moment on I have been shown the utmost care and courtesy. Every member of staff whether medical care or general have made my stay here very special.

Review from Barbara S (Daughter of Resident) published on 13 December 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My mother was in this home for over a year until she passed away in November. The grounds are lovely and the rooms have been fitted out to a high standard and are generally more spacious than other homes that I've known. The standard of care she received was generally good, although nothing in life
is perfect and there were a few hiccups along the way; I sometimes found a bit of a defensive attitude amongst some of the staff at these times. Most of the staff were very good and some were absolutely wonderful. The food was good. I found that it was sometimes difficult to gain access once the main doors were locked after about 6.30pm, as the access code was not generally given out to relatives and some of the staff were not familiar with the telephone system, and this could be frustrating. This is certainly one of the best homes of its kind in this area.

As a family, we were really worried about finding a home that our cousin would be happy to settle into. Home of compassion, they have managed to get an anxious old lady to feel at home and to relax and be happy to live here.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Magnificent home and grounds only matched by the standard of care provided. My mother and the whole family were treated with the utmost kindness, respect, dignity and total professionalism by every member of staff we encountered. A seamless transition from respite to resident, palliative care to hosting
her funeral. We could not have wished for a more perfect care home for the last few months of my mothers' life; knowing she was well cared for and extremely happy there.

Review from Alistair O (Son of Resident) published on 23 July 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The Home of Compassion is a most beautiful setting on the banks of the River Thames, but most importantly the care provided by the staff is outstanding. My Mother lived in the Home of Compassion, which she called the Purple Palace, from December 2017 until her death in March 2018. The care she was provided
and love which surrounded her was second to none and I know there is nowhere better we could have found for her to enjoy her friends and family in the final months of a very full life.


Thank you, the manager and your team. You did a wonderful job for which me and my family will always be grateful.

Review from Beryl U (Friend of Resident) published on 28 May 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Impressive building, good location, limited parking even on a weekend. Nevertheless, the residents enjoy a very high standard of care in spacious, opulent surroundings, backed up by carefully selected menus to suit the most decerning palette.
Staff were in attendance without being intrusive and I welcomed
the chance to enjoy a tray of tea with my friend who sadly suffers from dementia. At 97 years she could not find a more fitting residence in which to entertain family and watch the world go by.
It would be a dream come true if I make that age - the big 90 is looming!

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My father was admitted into Home of Compassion when he was very ill and restless. He has been well looked after and seems a little more settled in himself. The staff effectively deal with his infections and are quick to attend to him if he needs attention. He has had a physiotherapist allocated to him
and he is getting stronger. Senior staff listen to any concerns raised about Dad's treatment.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I was made to feel very welcome. My room was comfortable and I had a table and two chairs outside when the sun was shining!! The grounds were very attractive and staff extremely helpful and visitors also made to feel welcome.
Meals are always on time, with a varied menu. My meals were with several
ladies permanently in residence and like myself short term after a knee operation - 3 weeks.
We had good talking subjects and our table was a happy one - I would like to think I made a difference in making us all just a little happier in difficult circumstances.

My mum has just spent 12 weeks at the Home of Compassion for respite. The care and attention from each and every one of the staff was exceptional, they were all friendly, professional and caring whatever their role and nothing was ever too much trouble. It was a safe haven and no doubt aided my mum's
recovery. Many thanks to all of the staff who looked after my mum during that time.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
When my husband of 94 became quite disabled and confused (temporarily) we could no longer cope at home and he went into the Home of Compassion as an emergency. Later he decided to stay on a permanent basis. We have experienced much-skilled nursing care as well as kindness, consideration, friendliness
and helpfulness from all the staff, nurses, carers, catering and laundry.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The Home of Compassion is excellent - from the upper management team through to everyone involved in the daily running and care
My father-in-law had some of his happiest days there. Disabled and with limited mobility, he quickly made friends with residents and staff. He was cared for with dignity,
compassion and real affection. Everything was attended to, at the very highest standard. The team looked after him and his visiting family excellently. When sadly his life came to an end, the team were there with us, helping us through the darkest times. We were so glad that he moved to the Home of Compassion and we can still see him now touring the beautiful riverside gardens in his electric wheelchair, taking good food in the lovely restaurant and chatting with us over a coffee in the bistro. We also knew that his medical needs and physical comfort were being met every day and that his chats and activities with staff and residents kept his lively mind and sense of humour alive.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Shocked! I had no idea this level of care was available - anywhere. I walked in for the first time to see my sister literally totally transformed in expression and 'connection'.


First impression - overwhelming. Such a sense of style and sophisticated decor. However even had it been a shed it

would be the place to be. All the staff I met interacted with the patients with such warmth, care and compassion. Everyone smiled. The atmosphere was one of calm and competence. Please please tell the staff how much their dedication is appreciated and valued. Truly a home of real compassion.

I came to the Home of Compassion after a knee replacement op at the hospital. So I was only here for nine days. I received the kindness and friendly care I could have wished for. Happy faces made my recover all the quicker. I made new friends with permanent residents and hope to pop in to see them in
the future.

My husband came to the Home of Compassion in January of this year and I am very pleased with the level of care he is receiving. I find the nursing staff and carers to be very patient, kind and also helpful to me when I come to visit my husband. They keep me up to date on any changes to my husband and
any falls he has which is very reassuring for me.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.878)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.878) out of 10 for Thames View is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 29 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 29 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 4.878 for Thames View is calculated as follows: ( (305 Excellents x 5) + (36 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 344 Ratings = 4.878
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Thames View is based on 29 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 4
    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 78 registered maximum number of service users is 15.6, which has been reached with 29 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.
