My mother has been at Kew House since the end of February 2016. She is on the residential floor. Staff have always been very friendly, helpful and were very kind to both my mother, my sister and myself when she moved in.
Care is good, although my mother sometimes has to wait a while if she rings for
help.

Reply from Yetty Adepegba, General Manager at Hallmark Kew House

Thank you for your comments. I have now introduced daily checks to ensure that call bell response times are acceptable, meaning you should see an improvement for your mother. If you do have any concerns, please do come and see me in the home and I will be happy to look into these.

I was reluctant to send my independent mother to a care home but because of her health we had no choice. She settled in surprisingly quickly and that was due to the patience and kindness of the staff, they have coped admirably with her difficult dietary requirements and nothing is too much trouble for
them. We do feel a weight has been lifted off our shoulders as we know she is being cared for by such an excellent team in a lovely home.

My wife was suffering from Alzheimers and died here at just 62 years old after last three months here at Kew House. Generally myself, family and friends all liked the friendly ambience of Kew together with truly compassionate care staff.

From the initial contact with the team at Kew House, everything felt right. The registration process was slick and efficient and the entire administrative aspect was dealt with seamlessly. The facilities at Kew House were first class, and so were the nursing staff. My mother has a very nice, welcoming
room and the overall feeling of the establishment was very friendly. It felt like a home more than a care home. I had visited many potential care homes, before choosing Kew House for my mother; it was by far the best.

Beyond the very tastefully, colour coordinated furniture and wallpaper, lays a team of hard working staff. They care and it shows. They treat with dignity. If they are unable to answer a query, they go out of their way to find someone who can.

Staff at Kew House are all very friendly, nursing staff on my fathers floor are efficient. Sometimes a long wait for his bell to be answered and then another wait while staff find someone else to help as he needs two to move him.

I am 91 years of age, reasonably active and have been here since May 2014. I have been very happy and well looked after. The food is great and they will always get me something special as I am allergic to some products or cannot eat or do not like what is on offer. The menus are not large but perfectly
adequate for my purposes. En-suite is cleaned every day, my bed is made to my specifications every day.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.788)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.788) out of 10 for Hallmark Kew House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 43 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 42 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 4.788 for Hallmark Kew House is calculated as follows: ( (420 Excellents x 5) + (69 Goods x 4) + (11 Satisfactorys x 3) + (4 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 505 Ratings = 4.788

  • 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 Hallmark Kew House is based on 42 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 81 registered maximum number of service users is 16.2, which has been reached with 42 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.
