Mum moved into care home in March this year after a 4 month spell in hospital. Since moving in she is happier, integrates more with people in general. Participates on activities when she can (in wheelchair) and says she is happy. If she's happy we're delighted I find all the staff from reception to
manager all helpful and friendly and Mum says all staff very nice.

We are delighted to hear that she's feeling happier and more connected since moving in-it means a lot to us to know she's comfortable, enjoying activities, and surrounded by people she likes.Our team, from reception to care staff and management, work hard to create a supportive and welcoming environment, and it's lovely to hear that both you and your mum feel that warmth. Please don't hesitate to reach out if there's ever anything we can do to make her time with us even better.Thank you again for your trust and support,Team HCH

Mum couldn't have been better cared for and looked after than she has been at Haddington Care Home. The staff are all excellent and very caring; the home is beautifully furnished and laid out and is clean, spacious and light. The menus and food are lovely and there are lots of activities for the residents.
I never would have believed that Mum would settle in a care home but have been proved completely wrong! Thanks all.

From the moment we were given a guided tour of the home by the deputy manager, we knew that Mum would be given the best of care. Mum's needs are more than being met and the staff are truly wonderful. There are lots of activities, including singers, dancers, boat trips and days out in surrounding towns.
Overall, we are extremely happy and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Haddington Care Home to anyone wishing to place a family member in care.

Excellent in all areas. Staff friendly and professional from management, clerical, nursing staff, carers, support staff etc. Mum really enjoyed all the activities and said the meals were all lovely.
The home was very clean and spacious. Beautifully furnished throughout from the reception, residents

I was completely confident from the outset that Mum would be in the best of hands and would highly recommend Haddington Care Home. The whole team were amazing and I am so grateful.

Haddington Care Home has provided a safe and friendly environment for my Mum who has mixed dementia. She has settled in very quickly spending most of her day in the communal area or taking part in activities. This has given her the interaction we were unable to give her at home and she has already made
new friends. The staff are very compassionate and treat her with respect and dignity, and I have confidence that she is being well cared for. The building is very clean and airy and maintained to a high standard. The rooms are very spacious and always clean and tidy. We were apprehensive about moving Mum into care, but everyone at Haddington Care Home have gone over and above to help with the transition.

Reply from Leigh Young, Manager at Haddington Care Home

Thank you for your positive feedback regarding your Mum's experience at Haddington Care Home. We're thrilled she has settled in quickly and is enjoying her time in our safe, friendly environment. Providing engaging activities and fostering friendships among residents is a priority for us. Our compassionate staff are dedicated to treating all residents with respect and dignity, and we're pleased you have confidence in the care your Mum receives. Moving forward we are excited to be a part of creating meaningful moments for you and your mum here at Haddington Care Home. Our aim is to provide a warm and welcoming environment where she can feel at home and cherished. Welcome to our community!

I found Haddington Care Home exceptionally friendly, competent and comfortable for my wife who has been a resident since November 2023.
The staff were very eager to help and there was an atmosphere in the home which verified this from management down. The carers and nurses couldn’t have been kinder
and the cleanliness of the home was obvious from the reception area throughout.
I would commend this care home without reservation.

My mother's individual needs are very well catered for. I feel the home knows and understands her.
She is always clean and well-fed, and she is happy to engage with all staff and residents.
I marked down the room as it's a bit small with little room for visitor chairs. The wardrobe feels very small,
so we had to buy a larger one ourselves.
A lovely, happy place my mother now calls home.

My husband, with severe vascular dementia, settled very well for a week's respite. The facilities were excellent, and the staff was caring and respectful of his needs. There were plenty of activities, and he joined in everything. The bedroom accommodating was very clean and spacious. The staff also

Amazing helpful staff. The lunches and dinners are well-prepared nutritional meals and birthday celebrations are made special. The residents are always being taken on trips out to different places and they do really enjoy it. Well done Haddington Care Home Staff.

Reply from Richard Manson, Deputy Manager at Haddington Care Home

Thanks for your kind words they are much appreciated. Barge trips at Ratho to concerts at the local church are some of the activities our residents enjoy. We are also looking to vary our activity programme for example we have a student art therapist who recently joined us. The residents will hopefully enjoy expressing themselves through this medium. We are always aiming to provide a wide variety of dishes to cater for all palates, we are having themed menus such as 60s night, and Mexican night for example.

What a lovely, well-run and friendly place. The care team have helped my relative to settle in smoothly and he says everyone is kind and the food is pretty good.
I feel the staff are warm and attentive. They are continually checking that everyone's OK: Would you like a juice? Do you want a cuppa?
And the place itself is spotless.
It's a relief to have an enjoyable visit and leave knowing that my loved one is happy and cared for properly.

My aunt moved into Haddington Care Home in February 2021. She was made very welcome and I was so relieved to see the attention and individual care given to someone moving in. Due to Covid, I have not had freedom to move about the home. We are all tested beforehand and must adhere to guidelines however
I can see that the home is spotless. The lounge and dining room on my aunt's floor is bright and cheerful and her room cosy and bright. We are encouraged to bring in personal items for their rooms to help them feel at home. The staff from reception are friendly and efficient, happy to carry out Covid tests, pass on messages and put through phone calls. The Team Leader and all the staff are attentive ensuring my aunt is helped with showering, encouraged to come along to the lounge and join in with the other residents. The team leader and senior staff spend time with relatives visiting too. My aunt has dementia and I am very happy with the care and attention provided for her wellbeing.

It's a great comfort to know that Mum is in good hands at Haddington Care Home. The staff are clearly well trained and experienced. They are empathetic towards both Mum and me and I know that when I leave her in the home she will be well looked after. The home is clean, bright and airy with a simple
layout which is ideal for dementia care. The river walk next to the home offers a lovely walk when I visit mum and she gets to see birdlife, plants and flowers which are all the things she most loves. Thank you to the care home staff for all that you do. It's appreciated.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.691)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.691) out of 10 for Haddington Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 11 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 4.882 for Haddington Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (114 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 127 Ratings = 4.882

  • 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 4.809 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Haddington Care Home is based on 11 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 68 registered maximum number of service users is 13.6. 11 Positive Reviews ÷ 13.6 = 0.809

  • 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.
