Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We felt as a family extremely lucky to get our beloved sister/mother/grandmother a room at Fairfield for what we knew would be the last weeks of her life. I have nothing but praise for them all and especially some individuals who went beyond what we ever imagined. Their personal attention to us all
was a huge help in what was such an incredibly sad and difficult time for us. I cannot thank them all enough -from the wonderful cleaners, cooks, carers, nurses, and managers- forgive me if I've left any staff members out- It takes a certain kind of person to be able to cope with this job and you've got the balance so right- so I simply have nothing but huge admiration and gratitude for you all. You were all caring, sensitive, efficient, and always professional- and made us able to cope better as we went through the great sadness and challenges we faced. My heartfelt thanks to you ALL.
Reply from Sharon Hill, Manager at Fairfield HouseThank you for your heartfelt thanks. it was an honour to care for your beloved sister.
at such a difficult time for you all it is so very important that not only do we care for a loved one but as a family it is paramount that we give families as much support as they need.
when caring for anyone that comes to the home for end of life care as your dear sister did, you only get once chance to get their end days right and this is what we are most proud of being able to achieve.
I will share this review with staff as it re-affirms to us all that we are providing the right care at the right time every time.
thank you from the team at Fairfield

My family and I were so relieved when mum was accepted for a place at Fairfield. We visited prior to her move from the hospital and were immediately impressed with the positive interactions between the staff and residents, and also the facilities. Mum has now been at Fairfield for five months and we
are so happy with the care she receives, she is treated with dignity and her needs are met with compassion. There are regular planned activities, which mum enjoys, and a lovely garden for the residents to enjoy. The food is freshly cooked and well balanced. There is effective communication with the family; we are kept informed about any medical issues by the doctor who visits weekly, and any other issues are discussed with us by the managers or the nursing team. It is so good to know that mum is now in a safe environment, being cared for by friendly and attentive staff. I would highly recommend .
Reply from Sharon Hill, manager at Fairfield HouseThank you for your lovely review of our home, I will share your kind words with the team, it means a lot to us to have recognition for all our hard work. Your dear mum is joy to care for and we know that she gets a great deal of joy from all the outside activities. Feeling re-assured that your mum is in a safe and caring environment means such a lot to us all.

My Mum moved into Fairfield nearly 2 years ago. It was a difficult decision after trying several care homes in Dorset. They were not equipped to deal with my Mums needs. All changed when Fairfield was able to provide the best possible healthcare which she required. She has been given the care that she
needs and all the staff makes the whole family feel very welcome, especially my Dad who visits everyday.
Reply from Sharon Hill, manager at Fairfield HouseThank you so much for your kind words, choosing a care home for a loved can be difficult and filled with lots of anxieties and emotions. we want to make the transition into our care as smooth as possible, we are not only going to be caring for a family member or friend but our aim is to care for the whole family through a process that can be challenging.
we will be sure to share your feedback with the team it will mean a lot to them to have such positive feedback.

My Mother came into Fairfield after nine weeks of hospital care after breaking her hip and leg. That was August 2025
She has had excellent nursing care and the carers here are have made her stay so much easier, being so respectful and kind, they always have a smile too.

Dad moved into Fairfield after spending two months in hospital. He was diagnosed with complex medical needs requiring 24/7 care. From the outset the staff at Fairfield went above and beyond their regular duties to ensure that my father was cared for with the utmost care and attention. Even prior
to moving we found the Manager extremely helpful in assisting with the transition from hospital to the care home, ensuring that a full assessment of his medical needs was undertaken prior to admission and giving particular attention to the transition. This was a very worrying time for the family and we were reassured by the kindness and support shown by not only the manager but the entire medical and caring team.
Dad has settled well into Fairfield and we remain really impressed by the high levels of care, the quality of the food and the cleaniness of his room.
I would not hesitate to recommend the Fairfield Care Home to those in search of an outstanding care provider.
Reply from Sharon Hill, manager at Fairfield HouseThank you so much for your heart felt words, it is so important that our staff and prospective residents and their families have an honest and personal reflective review of the care we provide at Fairfield.
it is a pleasure to care for your dear father and to support you all as a family.
We always endeavour to provide the best care possible for all who reside at Fairfield Care

Dad moved to Fairfield after a bad experience at another local care home. The level of care provided at Fairfield is second to none and his safety and security has been st the forefront of every conversation. We have visited Dad on a fortnightly basis over the past few months and have left happy every
time.
Thank you Sharon and the team!! Amazing job.

Mum moved into Fairfield at the end of May 25 after 2 months in hospital. As a family we immediately felt she would like Fairfield, be comfortable in her room and it met her nursing needs very well. From day 1 management and staff were so friendly with Mum and attentive to us as a family which we
appreciated. It was obvious to us that she was happy there and was treated with dignity and compassion which is so important. Unfortunately and unexpectedly she became ill early in July 25 but was able to remain at Fairfield to be cared for and kept comfortable during her last few days until she died. Certainly our experience of Fairfield albeit brief was very positive and we say a big 'thank you' to all involved in her care.

My dad was in the care home for 3 weeks until he passed away. In these 3 weeks my dad was looked after amazingly. We visited every other day and every visit the staff were friendly and made us feel welcome and relaxed.
All staff both day and night were supportive and caring to both my dad and the
family.
They always kept us informed on everything that was happening.
I would like to thank them for all they did and making my dad comfortable and giving us support throughout.
A great team and they should all be very proud of what they do.

When I visit Mum, I always find the staff calm and helpful.
Mum has been at Fairfield for 4 months now, and every visit I find her happy and settled. I find the home clean, good food, and it looks like the staff work as a team and nothing is too much trouble.
The other nice thing I've noted is that
all the staff sit with residents and talk and spend time with them.

My dad stayed at Fairfield over the Christmas period, he was admitted for emergency respite. The home manager went above and beyond to facilitate Dad’s stay, at very short notice. Dad appeared very content and happy, the staff spent time talking to him and offering reassurance. The food smelt wonderful
and Dad always appeared to clear his plate, I would highly recommend Fairfield the manager and her team.

Lovely home from home. Mum went to Fairfield for a week over Christmas and stayed in one of their new en-suite bedrooms. The staff were attentive welcoming and friendly - nothing was too much trouble for them and showed genuine respect for the elderly. Special mention of the experienced carers there
and from the first day made mum feel welcomed, special and safe. The only downside for me was cosmetically in that the older part of the building on the ground floor lounge and dining area was tired with furniture well worn and both rooms in need of a total refurbishment which I understand is planned for this year. Other than that this home is a real find providing that friendly homely feel with high standards of cleanliness and care. It’s because of the superb staff who work there and who genuinely really care about their residents - you can sense the happy atmosphere when you first walk in which is important to live in that sort of environment to lift your day!
Reply from Claire Douglas, TBC at Fairfield HouseI appreciate your honesty regarding the older part of the building, we do have plans to totally refurbish the communal areas this year and upgrade the furniture. It was lovely for Mum to stay and have the opportunity to spend quality time with you over Christmas. I will forward your kind words to all the staff.

We had the need to use the wonderful services on offer, at Fairfield, during Christmas week 2023. My Dad has dementia and we needed a few days respite for him, the staff and management were incredible, both caring and understanding to our family and our father's needs, Dad was well cared for, comfortable
and given privacy and was supported with anything he needed. The staff were friendly, we had great reports of the food and dad enjoyed the outside space for supervised fresh air, his room was comfortable, and had a homely aesthetic, a very nice and safe wet room and comfortable accommodation. From a family point of view, visiting was no trouble, staff were happy to escort us to him and very accommodating. The location was easy to find and on a main transport route, the home itself was impeccably clean and neat. If we need to use respite services again, we won't hesitate to use Fairfield. Thanks a million for supporting the family in our time of need and taking care of our Dad.

I thoroughly recommend Fairfield House. My wife transferred to this care home when her needs became more complex. Every staff member has been so wonderfully caring, compassionate and understanding of my wife and I. Always so friendly and ready to give a full report of how my wife is fairing.
I rest
easier knowing my wife is receiving excellent care with such patience, making sure the needs of my wife, however small, are met as far as possible. During my regular visits, it never seems like they are just following a routine but genuinely trying to give my wife the best quality of life she can have.
I cannot praise all the staff and management enough.
The treatment of residents as though they are their own family members is heartwarming.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.594)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.594) out of 10 for Fairfield House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 12 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.794 for Fairfield House is calculated as follows: ( (111 Excellents x 5) + (22 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 136 Ratings = 4.794
  2. 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 4.8 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Fairfield House is based on 12 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 3.8
    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 37 registered maximum number of service users is 7.4, which has been reached with 12 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.
