This attractive and professionally managed care home rated ‘Outstanding’ in March 2020 by the Care Quality Commission, has been supporting the local communities of Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire and Dacorum for over ten years. Established and purpose-built with an excellent reputation, St Pauls Care Centre offers quality nursing, residential, convalescent and dementia care in an accessible but peaceful location.
An award-winning home manager and deputy manager have been leading the home since the day it opened, and a stable and skilled staff team provide responsive, compassionate, high-quality care to meet the changing and individual needs and expectations of each resident. The home does not use any agency staff and new staff are often recruited through direct referrals. The family ethos and the warm relationships achieved are greatly valued by both residents and visitors, and make St Pauls Care Centre a special place to live.

The charming garden is a favourite with residents, with its spacious areas for them to relax or socialise with friends and relatives.

We understand the importance of finding the right care home, especially after a previous unsatisfactory experience. It's heartening to know that St. Pauls has met your expectations and provided the quality care your mum deserves.
Mum went to St Paul's during Covid. It meant that I hadn't been able to visit beforehand and for many months the only visits were between glass with microphones. So imagine my delight when these restrictions were lifted that I got to see her delightful room and meet properly her carers and nurses....
I have absolutely no issues with Mum's care and wellbeing. It was obvious these were being met and I was very reassured by this. I was always kept fully informed of any changes in Mum, both physical and medical.
The whole team were always friendly, caring and kind. My Mum's needs changed considerably during her time at St. Paul's but I never had any concerns. I would recommend St. Paul's to anyone considering nursing care for their loved one.

My wife has been a resident at St Pauls Care Centre for a little over two years. She has dementia and is difficult to care for as she is generally non-compliant with carers and is still very mobile. I am very happy with the care my wife is receiving. In my view it is exceptional and the carers and...

Thank you for your lovely message. We're so pleased to know your mother's care brings you comfort, it means a great deal to us.
St.Pauls is very welcoming to both residents and their relatives. It is light, airy and very welcoming. Everywhere is spotlessly clean. The medical and domestic staff are all very friendly and it is clear they are all very caring. The care and respect for the residents is outstanding.

Can't thank the nurses and carers on Floor 1 enough for the care and compassion they showed my mother before she passed away in August 2024. Nothing was too much trouble and was always greeted with a smile, the nurses always made sure I was kept up to date with my mother's needs either in person or by telephone. They also had a doctor who visits on a regular basis which meant that any issues were dealt with very promptly. I would 100% recommend St Pauls Care Centre.
Thank you so much for your kind words. The St Pauls team were honoured to have been there for your mother and your family. It means a lot to hear that we helped provide the support and communication you needed during this time. Thank you for recommending St Pauls Care Centre.
We chose St Pauls in 2022 as the hospital had only given my Mother a few days, at the most a few weeks to live. Thanks to St Pauls dedication and skills, she is still thriving 2 1/2 years later. Nothing is too much trouble, always welcoming and professional. 11 out of 10 as far as we are concerned,...

Mum has been a resident since July and has settled in well with the help of the wonderful staff who are very good at their jobs and willing to help Mum with everything concerning her care and wellbeing. They keep me up to date every day about Mum's health and whether she has been strong enough to go to the activities etc. We visit quite often and are always welcomed by all the staff.

We visited the care home with our miniature ponies from Keysoe Cuddle Therapy Centre. We found the staff to be very friendly and a caring team who clearly put the needs of the residents at the forefront. Would recommend as a lovely home.

Thank you so much for your kind words and for bringing your delightful miniature ponies to visit! It was such a special experience for our residents, and we're happy to hear you enjoyed your time with us.
A very kind and caring environment. Wonderful staff. St Pauls became my second home and I was always made to feel welcome. Mum was very well looked after. The staff did the very best they could. I'm so grateful to them.

My dad spent his final two weeks of life at St Pauls after a very distressing month in hospital. I can't fault the care given. They let residents retain their dignity and show so much compassion and pride in what they do. Every member of the team I met, from the excellent nurses, to the fabulous carers, activity co-ordinators, reception, kitchen, laundry and maintenance staff, go above and beyond to ensure residents are clean, comfortable and safe, no matter how complex their needs. It genuinely feels like such a well-run and professional environment. I have no regrets in choosing St Pauls to help my dad and me. It's little wonder they have earned an 'outstanding' CQC rating. Can't thank them all enough!
Thank you for your kind words. We're grateful to hear that our care and compassion made a positive impact during your dad's final weeks. Your feedback means a lot to our team.

For the care, support, dignity and love they all showed my father from the day he arrived until the day he sadly passed away on 01/07/24. We as a family and anyone who visited my father were treated exactly the same way.

To all the staff, a heartfelt thank you for your outstanding care. My mother arrived at the end of November 2023 with weeks to live. Your kindness, empathy, compassion and yes, dare I say love, made her end of life happy. You helped her find the strength to live a further 6 months. Every day she told me of the little unnoticed kindnesses from the staff on the second floor. I witnessed the dedication of the staff not only towards my mother, but all the residents, often when they were totally unaware. The last few days of my mother’s life were very difficult, for her and our family, all the staff did everything humanly possible to make my mother comfortable and to support us as a family. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything you have done. You work in a very difficult environment and are truly underappreciated, but what you did made a difference! I don’t know what we would have done without you. You are all wonderful human beings. Thank you.
Our sincere condolences for your loss, the team at St Pauls Care Centre are very grateful for your heart-warming review and kind words. They thank you immensely for your feedback and your comments have certainly touched their hearts.
My lovely Mum has advanced Alzheimer's. From the moment she arrived at St Paul's, we knew we'd struck gold. The team were ready to greet and settle Mum in. It was a very smooth transition from hospital and they quickly learnt Mum's needs. The health care assistants and nurses are wonderful. They...
Food is always plentiful and tailored for Mum's needs.
The quarterly relatives meetings provide a forum to engage with management.
There's a calm, friendly and inclusive atmosphere where residents and their relatives can socialise. Mum's been resident for 6 months now and she has been looked after wonderfully. As a control freak, I felt nervous about trusting and outsourcing something as precious as my Mum's welfare to anyone else, but I could not be happier with St Paul's.
Thank you deeply for your heartfelt review of St. Paul's. We're truly touched by your kind words and are thrilled to know that your mum has found such wonderful care with us. Your trust means the world to us, especially given your initial apprehensions. We're committed to maintaining the high...

I have been very pleased with the close attention of the staff. They are all very friendly which I have appreciated. The permanent residents who are able to use the dining room and the lounge have been very good company for me. I've never spent time in a care home before so my judgement is difficult to make. There seems to be a lack of soundproofing which I've been affected by during the nights.
The team at St Pauls are very grateful for your feedback, we are pleased to hear that you have enjoyed the companionship in our social areas and hope that your experience has left a positive mark. We will pass on your feedback regarding the night time noise.

Mum has been at St Pauls since April 2022. In that time the carers and all the staff have been kind, caring, helpful and professional. I like the consistency of staff, having dementia Mum is wary of strangers and having the same members of staff regularly helps with this and other anxieties. Mum is pretty much nonverbal but the staff seem able to understand her needs. The activities team always make sure there is something to do for the residents and organise regular events and parties which friends and family are invited to. Security is good and I have every confidence that once I leave her Mum will be safe. The nursing staff keep on top of health issues and have regular medication reviews with the GP surgery allocated to the home.
Thank you for your lovely comments, the team at St Pauls are grateful for your lovely words. We are pleased to hear that you feel Mum is safe and well cared for, if there is anything you need the team are always on hand to help.
Found the care centre clean, tidy, fresh and friendly. It was nice to see a safe and secure place for my cousin to stay in. Her room was a good size and with a window onto the world outside. Lovely staff, who were keen to help us. Lots of things to do. A cinema! Altogether, very nice indeed. My...
