Our beloved friend recently passed away at Heathlands Care Home, and we are deeply grateful for the outstanding care they received. From the very beginning, the staff showed kindness, respect, and compassion, creating a warm and supportive environment that truly felt like home.
We would especially
like to thank the managers for their exceptional leadership and dedication. One of them cared for our friend with gentleness and professionalism, always offering patience and compassion. The other brought warmth and reassurance, ensuring that the home was well run and filled with dignity and kindness. Their support extended not only to our friend but also to us as family and friends during such a difficult time.
The wider Heathlands team also went above and beyond to ensure our friend's final days were peaceful and dignified. The home is always clean, welcoming, and nurturing, with staff who treat residents as part of their own family.
Although we are heartbroken by our loss.

My dad was pretty new to heathlands before getting a room there on bluebell I was his carerfor 3 yrs but unfortunately I was told it would be best for him to have all round care my dad had a terrible time in and out of hospital with different infections and then a dementia diagnosis before joining heathlands
so I was very worried about accepting a place I felt I was letting him down but he was given a lovely room to stay which was bright and sunny he was able to all his things from home to keep him company & for it to feel home which was lovely I got to know a few members of staff at heathlands & everyone of them was so lovely so helpful with any questions or concerns I had my father stayed with them for about 3-4 months before he passed away in hospital I can begin to tell you how happy & loved they made my dad feel while he was with them I saw a massive change in my dads spirt while he was there to describe it was just pure happiness and full of joy and laughter

My father came to Heathland's after a month stay in hospital with fractured ribs and spinal fractures
To be honest we didn't think he would make it out of hospital
Now he is walking again, eating well and having one to one care. Quite amazing
The owners are changing so we shall see what that brings
Downsides-
the help button hardly ever works and my requests for change of room so far haven't been acknowledged.
Reply from Gladys Danquah, Home Manager at Heathlands Care Home

Thank you for taking the time to share feedback regarding your experience with Heathlands. We truly value & appreciate your comments as they help us to continuously improve the care & service we provide. We apologise for the delay in responding to your request for a room change as we are looking for a room near the nursing station to ensure a smooth and comfortable transition, we want to make sure the move only happens once. We have identified one that needs a bit of refurb. We are also grateful for your kind words about the care your father received upon his transfer from the hospital and your recognition of our dedicated team. Your concern regarding the change in ownership is completely understandable. At present we do not anticipate any changes that would affect the quality of care or service and we remain committed to maintaining our high standards. Thank you once again for your thoughtful feedback and continued support. Kind Regards - Home Manager

My mum was transferred to Heathlands a few weeks before she died but the staff and management were brilliant. They were so kind, caring and could not do enough for us. My mum was treated with the utmost dignity and care. They were so patient with us as we have so many siblings. It was kept so clean,
plenty of parking, refreshments for visitors too. Nothing we asked was ever too much.

Although my husband was only in Heathlands Care Home for 3 weeks before he died, He was very happy there.
All the staff, care nurses, carers, kitchen staff and the management were excellent to name but a few.
They were all very sensitive to the needs of the patient and the family during visiting.
The
doctor seemed to come regularly (Thursdays) I believe was very nice.
Plenty of parking and visiting was not tied to certain times although they preferred you not to visit during mealtime.

We are deeply honoured that you chose our home for his end-of-life journey, and it was our privilege to provide him with comfort and support.

Generally all quite good, sometimes outstanding, and sometimes not so good. Management has improved recently. This has led to an all-around general improvement in all areas, however, they have lost the best member of the entertainment staff and needs to be replaced.
Reply from Gladys Danquah, Home Manager at Heathlands Care Home

Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate your recognition of the improvements in management and the overall enhancement in all areas. As you say, our head of activities decided to move on after being with the home for several years. However, we are currently in the process of recruiting a replacement and wish to ensure that our programme of activities and entertainment remains as varied as possible, and continues to meet our residents' needs and expectations. Thank you for your understanding and continued support.

My Nan is so happy at Heathlands which she now refers to as her home. She has her own room, the team is consistent and Nan adores her keyworker and praises the other staff. She couldn't ask for better care everyone is so friendly, positive and meets Nan's care needs. There is a nurse on Nan's level
at all times who meets Nan's medical needs booking her in with the relevant agencies ie audiologist and chiropodist. The home has fantastic choices of food. The activities team is led by a fantastic team leader, all are enthusiastic, caring and lovely making sure Nan has a great day, they do arts/crafts, coffee mornings and garden visits. The nursing home also arranged for the local day nursery to visit and Nan loved interacting with the children. They also have fun days including live singers for all the family to enjoy. There are regular family meetings and posters where you can keep up to date with what's going on. Nan gets her hair done every other week by a hairdresser who comes to the home.

The transfer from hospital to Heathlands was handled very efficiently and professionally.
The care was overall good. The food was very good with a good choice. The care of my uncle's clothes was excellent. The home was very clean and the majority of the staff were friendly and caring. My only complaint
was when my uncle died I didn't feel the bereavement care for us as a family was very good.

My mum spent her last six months under the care of Heathlands and we were extremely happy with the way she was looked after here. The staff always made time for a chat with her and were always very kind. Family members who visited her also voiced the same opinions about the home and staff. Her room
and laundry were always extremely clean and the cleaning/laundry staff members always made time to chat to my mum too. My mum always said that she had made the right decision about moving into this home and she was very happy here.

Thank you very much for your review. The team and I are delighted that you were happy with your loved one's care. We have fond memories of her joining in activities at the home, especially she loved bringing happiness and smiles, she loved having a good old talk and conversation and loved our pamper mornings she was certainly a big personality and is very much missed by staff and other residents. We would like to offer you and your family our sincere condolences, and our very best wishes for the future.

From the day she entered Heathlands staff went out of their way to make my mum feel welcome. Her bedroom was a good size, and she was able to personalise it with family photos and items to make it more homely. The level of care I witnessed was exceptional. The staff were attentive, and professional,
treated my mum with dignity, and put her needs at the centre of every interaction with her. Some of the individual carers are brilliant, exactly the sort of people I wanted to care for Mum.
I was welcomed every day as a visitor, and every staff member from the minute I walked into the home greeted me with a smile, and all showed an interest in Mum. I was very impressed with the way in which families are kept up to date. I had remote access to Mum's care plan and was able to see the current state of her wellbeing. Discussions with the nurses were always professional and realistic. I would certainly recommend Heathlands.

I am very pleased with my mum's care. Her health has actually improved since being in hospital! However, she feels the ‘personal touch’ from carers drops a little at weekends when contract staff come in.
It is also not ideal that some of her room is used to store boxes of medication materials.

Overall Experience 2.0 out of 5
It's a shame as this nursing home has potential, let down by head office and certain staff as some lazy carers with the amazing decent carers leaving or picking the slack up for the terrible ones.
Activities by team poor, they do not adhere to the activity schedule, hoodwinking management. Food indistinguishable
as to what meal it is, the cheapest ingredients used. Inadequate changing of residents, smelling, crying out in distress, no regular pattern of changing, it’s just as and when which doesn’t work as carers off on breaks/sat on phones. When meant to lock away items of great value, missing from residents' rooms and nothing done to rectify it.
Some carers are horrible and shout at the residents with severe Alzheimer’s and I've seen many go unfed at supper time whilst visiting and had to say they need feeding. Agency nurses do the bulk of nursing and are mostly useless, not adhering to the MAR chart, meds not crushed despite being put by GP. This went on for two years till my dad's death.

Definitely not worth the fees that they charge.
Management are rubbish and will not deal with any complaints.
Residents not showered regularly and therefore end up with infections that could be avoided.
Lots of safeguarding issues.
1-2 Carers that are rough with the residents to the point they have
had an investigation but still allowed to work with vulnerable people.
Lots of temporary staff, not enough permanent staff.
Food is awful.
The home has really gone downhill since we first arrived, and I was even told by the social worker that she wouldn't recommend my family member to come back after a hospital stay due to neglect and safeguarding issues.
The sad thing is there are about 8 careers that are amazing and very caring and if the whole home was like this and had a decent manager it could be turned around but all the good careers are leaving.
I am only talking about one floor of Heathlands but I know there are lots of complaints at the moment.

    1. 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
    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 84 registered maximum number of service users is 16.8, which has been reached with 17 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.
