Mum came to Hen Cloud due to an illness. We've been so impressed with the level of care she has received. We were so uncertain of how mum would adapt. The friendly staff and their caring nature has been amazing in many ways, from reassuring us and keeping us updated with how mum has settled into her care. The entertainment and the variety is excellent from visiting entertainers, craft/classes, outings to scenic places, parties, celebrations are all wonderfully coordinated. More than impressed.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. We're delighted to hear how well your mum has settled at Hen Cloud House and that our team have helped to reassure you along the way. It's wonderful to know she is enjoying the activities, outings and celebrations too. Thank you for your kind words which we will be sure to share with the whole team.

After 58 years of marriage, when my husband's Parkinson's took a sudden downward spiral early this year and his care needs could no longer be met safely in our home it was a very emotional time for myself, my husband and our sons and daughter. From from the time the Deputy Manager called for a home assessment, I was shown empathy and kindness. My husband was admitted to Hen Cloud two days later where we both knew he was in a much safer environment. Staff at all levels offered support to us both from day one, and have continued to be there for me when I have had an emotional 'wobble'....and there have been many 'wobbles' over the last three months. My husband is settled, enjoys the varied daily activities, good food, and tells me the staff cannot do enough for him. It is a bonus Hen Cloud employ activities co-ordinators who have time and enthusiasm to organise the interesting events for residents enriching their lives. Many thanks to all the Hen Cloud team.
Thank you so much for sharing this lovely review. We know how emotional and difficult it can be when things change and a loved one needs more care, so we're really pleased to hear how supported you and your family have felt since your husband moved to Hen Cloud.

We recently arranged a short respite stay at Hen Cloud for my mum, and I honestly couldn't have asked for a better experience. From the moment she arrived, the staff made her feel completely welcome and at ease, especially Richard, which was such a relief as she had been quite anxious beforehand.
The care and attention she received were outstanding. Every member of staff was kind, patient, and genuinely caring-nothing ever seemed too much trouble. It was clear they took the time to understand her needs and preferences, which made a huge difference to her comfort and confidence.
The home itself was spotless, beautifully maintained, and had a really warm, homely atmosphere. Meals, which were varied and freshly prepared, were excellent and she loved having the option to join in with activities or simply relax in her room.
What stood out most for me was the peace of mind it gave our family. Knowing she was safe, happy, and well looked after meant we could truly relax during the break.
We're really pleased to hear your mum felt so welcome during her stay with us, and that Richard and the team helped her settle in and feel comfortable. It's great to know she enjoyed her...

I find Hen Cloud satisfactory despite my sister's condition; they are always willing to talk to us and discuss any problems. The cleanliness is top class. The food is excellent.

We find Hen Cloud very satisfactory, especially the staff, and since the new management, who are Kristen and Robert, it's been much, much better. I do think the ironing could be better.

The staff are all very lovely.
There's been a couple of occasions where he has been damp when one of us have arrived at the home I feel like more regular checks asking if he needs a wee would prevent this as sometimes he doesn't remember to ask.
Also we appreciate due to staffing and risk assessments that time to do physio with users is restricted, but more one on one time getting up from the chair by himself and some walking would benefit and keep him moving, but fully understand Health and Safety regulations and convenience and quickness of using a hoist.
Also i understand this is due to staffing but making sure he is got out of bed every morning and not left in there to have his breakfast when people have visited who have had to see him Still in bed rather than him sitting out and dressed.
These aren't criticisms but things we've noticed and suggestions for improvements.
Aware of staffing issues.

Thank you for such thoughtful and constructive feedback regarding your father's care at HCH. All comments are truly appreciated by the entire team.We apologise for the occasions where your father has been found damp. This is not the standard of care we aim to provide. We're committed to ensuring the comfort and dignity of all residents and will review and reinforce our continence care protocols with all staff.Regarding your mobility observations, we offer at least 2 exercise classes each week, to encourage movement and improve physical capabilities. We've just secured the services of a qualified physiologist who will visit weekly, to run group and individual sessions, allowing more personal attention to mobility needs, where appropriate and safe. Should your father return for additional respite (he would be most welcome) we'd be sure to include him in the sessions.Please feel free to contact me directly should you wish to arrange a meeting to discuss these points further.
Found everything to be spot on.

The home is always clean and tidy. The carers are always friendly and willing to help if I ask. My mother is always presented well with matching clothes and always clean.

A lovely care home with up to date decor. It is kept very clean and there is plenty of food provided to the residents. A team of senior and junior carers works well, with any medical issues supported by regular visits of a GP.
