Designed by award winning architects, High Meadows is a 45 bed care home providing premium rooms and landscaped gardens in the heart of Pinner.

Their mission is to provide a home from home environment, delivering personalised care by highly skilled and compassionate staff. They believe respecting people’s choices and beliefs is just as important as looking after their physical well-being. As such, all care plans are individually tailored and regularly updated by doctors and therapists in consultation with the resident and their loved ones.

Our smart and comfortable bedrooms have en-suite and shower facilities, and are furnished with an electric bed, smart TV with Sky, as well as Wi-Fi and telephone access. Ground floor rooms also have a private terrace garden, and everyone can participate in gardening the communal grounds.

Communal areas can be used for socialising and relaxation, including dayrooms, a library, cinema, salon with attending beauty therapists, and newly landscaped gardens.

Each unit has its own dining room with daily menu’s tailored to taste. Vegetarian and special dietary considerations are provided for. Meals can be served in the dining rooms or as room service, for those residents who prefer to eat in their own room.

High Meadows is a lovely home in every aspect. My friend is so happy and content there. When it was his birthday, a lovely get-together with all the other residents was organised which is lovely for all the other residents too.
A very well-liked care home with all the residents cared for in all facilities.

Reply from High Meadows, Manager at High Meadows

Dear Susan, thank you very much for your kind words. We are very glad that your friend is happy here so as you feel reassured. Thank you again, for the feedback.

Everything is excellent except for the food which is deteriorating, not as good as it was when I first came. Everything else is very good.

Don't be fooled by the smart surroundings. The care is very poor. We raised concerns, the manager did not comply with the concerns procedure. She was defensive, one of the most dismissive and arrogant people I have ever met, who also lied. It is clearly a business and not a caring organisation at all.
The carers were pleasant but they were overstretched which meant people did not have their basic care needs met. I have escalated my concerns to the company director - he listened but nothing changed, so it is now with the CQC.

Reply from The Manager, Manager at High Meadows

We regret to learn of your dissatisfaction with your recent experience. Our commitment is to provide exceptional service to all clients while maintaining a zero-tolerance policy towards impolite or abusive behaviour directed at our staff. Regrettably, we were compelled to discontinue the intended service for your loved one due to the family's unacceptable conduct. As a healthcare provider, we endeavour to strike a balance between the best interests of our staff and the standard of care we extend to our residents. We are disappointed that we could not work with you to provide the best care to your loved one. It is imperative to highlight that bodies such as the CQC play a pivotal role in providing support to care providers and safeguarding the public from harm, so as a secure work environment for healthcare professionals. We take your feedback seriously and seek to redress any issues, always mindful of our legal obligations. we appreciate your feedback.

My mother has settled in very well and I would highly recommend this nursing

I am very happy in this excellent care home, celebrating my 90th birthday next month. I have as much care as needed being fairly independent. In fact, my health has improved since living here, having 24-hour care and enjoying excellent food, though too much at times! My patio garden, bird feeders, and
water bowl give an excellent source of pleasure. My computer keeps me in daily up-to-date info into the big wide world while living in a comfortable bubble.

I value my independence (such as it is) for there is help when needed. I value the endless number of carers for their empathy and kindness. It is no easy task for these Indian lassies caring in a different language and culture and they do very well on the whole.

My dad came into High Meadows for respite care after a hospital stay. The staff are very caring and look after him very well. Everything is immaculately clean and the food is good. Dad has Parkinson's and having his medication managed for him has been a higher weight off his mind. I would not hesitate
to recommend High Meadows.

Dear Katy,

My Grandfather was very well cared for at High Meadows and I would recommend them to others. His room was very comfortable and we always felt that all family members including much younger members of the family could visit at any point. The staff were always very friendly and caring.

I have been convalescing at High Meadows now for 15 months. I have found the house and staff welcoming and supportive. The home is clean, tightly run and has a nice ambience; the staff are friendly and helpful. Some staff have gone beyond the call of duty by providing me with emotional and mental support
when needed. There are regular stretches/exercises involving residents as coordinated by the activities team and a steady stream of activities that culminate in a summer fete. The food is satisfactory although more healthy options would be good. Like most care home establishments turnover of staff is an issue.

My father is on the nursing unit and has been treated well with his health issues as they have progressed. The staff, although busy, find time to communicate with me and update me, there is a choice of food at mealtimes and it is always well presented. We have experienced some problems with laundry.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.646)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.646) out of 10 for High Meadows is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 34 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 33 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 4.646 for High Meadows is calculated as follows: ( (294 Excellents x 5) + (78 Goods x 4) + (17 Satisfactorys x 3) + (7 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 396 Ratings = 4.646

  • 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 High Meadows is based on 33 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 45 registered maximum number of service users is 9, which has been reached with 33 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.
