Comfort, support and wellbeing are central to life at Hamble Heights. Its reputation is built on exceptional standards of care, so residents and their families know that they are in the safest hands.
Hamble Heights provides the highest levels of 24-hour, personalised elderly care available; including dementia, nursing and residential care. The care home team provides the best care and support, as well as companionship and empathy. The team are all focused on helping residents to thrive and enjoy each day. An in-house Wellbeing team support residents to enjoy a range of events and activities, to keep them entertained and offer them the chance to socialise, either one to one or within a group setting.
Hamble Heights’ Wellbeing Team has been recognised for its creativity, enthusiasm and dedication in bringing smiles to residents' faces every day. It was the winner of the regional award for Best Activities Coordinator in The Great British Care Awards (January 2016), and two-time winner for Evidence of Outstanding Activities in the Ladder to the Moon Awards (September 2016, 2017).
The modern and purpose-built home was designed to put residents’ needs first. For example, all rooms are extra-large, private and have an en-suite wet-room. The communal spaces are all furnished to a high standard. The emphasis is on comfort, to make it feel like a home from home. Hamble Heights offers a great community feel with comfortable lounges, bistro dining rooms, a bar, and even a hair salon. The home's professional chefs ensure appealing, varied, healthy and nutritious meals are offered, with resident's encourage to request their favourites and asked for feedback.
The residents’ rooms are fully furnished and kept spotlessly clean, and there is plenty of space to personalise the room if residents wish to bring their own furniture, pictures or ornaments.

Both of my grandparents are residents of Hamble Height and I can't thank Hamble Heights enough for the continuing high standard of care they provide both of them. They are always accommodating to their needs and treat them with the utmost kindness and respect. For my gran's birthday, Hamble Heights went out of their way to make my gran's birthday a special experience, particularly two staff members in particular. They decorated their private dining area for her and the family, prepared menus and table settings to make it feel as if we were at a restaurant and Sandy even baked a cake for my gran. Although my gran has advanced dementia, it was clear she enjoyed the experience, as did my grandad and the rest of the family. One staff member in particular also assisted my grandad in selecting and coordinating a birthday card and gift, which pleased him greatly.
Thank you so much to the manager and the team for the wonderful support they provide!

Having lived independently and aged 90 I was worried when my beloved mother, through sudden illness, could no longer care for herself and required 24/7 nursing care. The Care Home is managed by the capable and enthusiastic Manager who is supported by Business Development Manager, who welcomes us each morning and a Clinical Lead. Each individually professional but who together create an awesome and formidable team where the residents care is the priority. The room is cosy and kept scrupulously clean. The meals are freshly cooked.
There are no sad faces just a happy dedicated team of nursing staff and a care support team who genuinely love their residents and their work.

For the last few months of my friend's life, it was clear that she needed professional care and nursing in a warm friendly efficient environment. In all respects, I can safely say that all her needs were cared for in a highly personalised manner. All the staff, regardless of function or level were very communicative and attentive. If I had any questions, I was very satisfied that they knew the answers relating to my friend. I never felt any sense at any time that my friend was not getting the very best attention that she needed. The staff clearly communicated with each other maintained good records and gave of themselves freely. I feel that the best leadership is in an environment, where the staff know what to do at all times and use their initiative in an appropriate manner. The staff here demonstrated that the leadership and training were excellent.
I cannot fault the staff at this home in any way and would recommend this home to anyone.

Our sister has been a resident for 18 months. We completed a review last year and believe we can say most of our responses were good or excellent. Unfortunately, however, we feel we need to complete another review due to the deterioration of the Home. Our sister has informed us there has been a real change, i.e. food, some inedible, lack of choice and variety, especially as she is diabetic Cleanliness, rooms ok, but the crockery and utensils in the dining room are disgraceful. Very badly stained with some having dried on food. Although this has been pointed out many times to the administrative staff there appears to be no change.
Staff, no continuity with residents as they are moved around the various floors. Agency Staff employed are not as caring as the permanent staff

My husband has just had his first rest bite stay at Hamble Heights for two weeks. On arrival, the staff were friendly and reassuring and took a lot of time making sure my husband was comfortable also putting plans in place for safe transfer and to make sure he would be safe at all times. I had requested that my husband spend his days in the lounge rather than his room and I feel that every effort was made to make this happen, safety permitting. The food always looked delicious and I know my husband enjoyed it. The carers were attentive, although two or three of them to fifteen residents didn't always feel like another. There often seemed to be an agency nurse on duty rather than the wonderful nurses who knew the residents.

The warmth and friendliness of all staff members is lovely for both the residents and their visiting families. Staff are always informative, patient and also genuinely kind-hearted. The carers go above and beyond and treat all residents with dignity and affection. The rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable, providing a sense of relaxation. Mum enjoys the food and engaging in activities. Although there is already a fantastic wellbeing team in place, I would love to see a few more opportunities for dedicated one-on-one social time. My mum has experienced some minor health issues, but they have been promptly addressed and suitable medication has been prescribed by the local GP. The communication between the nursing home and the GP surgery is truly commendable. As a daughter, this alleviates a significant amount of worry from my mind.
Overall, my family and I are incredibly grateful and content with the exceptional level of care and attention that Mum receives at Hamble Heights.

My elderly mother was assessed and accepted by Hamble Heights for long term care. After less than two weeks she was admitted to hospital in the early hours of the morning. The care home struggled to deal with my mother who has dementia and failed to administer her prescribed medication. This resulted in deterioration of her condition as well as behaviour and resulted in the home informing her family they could not have her back with immediate effect.
Although some staff were very helpful and kind there did not seem to be an adequate care plan in place.

Thank you for your review. We are sorry that we have not met your expectations. Giving notice to a resident and their family is never a decision that we take lightly. Unfortunately, it became clear very early on that we would not be able to meet your mother’s needs. We must balance the needs of all the residents within our home to ensure that we have the best interests of each individual at the centre of our care. It is with a heavy heart on the rare occasion that we decide we must give notice, however, we believe it is what is best for the residents concerned to ensure they receive the highest standards of care that they require.

Dad resided at Hamble Heights from September 2020 until May 2023 following a stroke which left him paralysed down one side, unable to swallow needing a rig for medicine and food with severe speech difficulties. Dad has been looked after under very difficult circumstances with the utmost respect, care and attention from all members of staff. They have always communicated well with the family and kept us well informed and allowing access to Dad at all times to all members of the family which are many to visit. During Covid, the home provided the best possible visiting access that rules would allow, which we really appreciated. We have always felt that Dad was in the best place receiving love, care and attention at all times even under very difficult circumstances which gave the family peace of mind.
Thank you all very much.

My Mother has been a resident at Hamble Heights for 17 months. We chose the home as its near the family and is purpose built. However, the most important reasons are the wonderful care staff and nurses and the excellent food. My Mother tells me that there is always an alternative dish served if you would rather have this. The activities organiser is great and very innovative, although it is difficult for those with a visual impairment to take part in too many activities. They gave my Mum a fabulous 100th birthday party! I mentioned the care staff and nurses above but of course thanks and praise should also go to all the other staff in the home who help to make everything run smoothly.
