She enjoys the lovely food served to her in lovely surroundings and takes part in all the activities and entertainment offered to residents.
She is enjoying life to the full - Thank you to all the staff at Hen Cloud.
Thank you so much for your lovely comments, they are very much appreciated, we will pass this on to the whole staffing team. Kindest regards.

I have been very pleased with the care and support my Mum has received, she has settled in well and enjoys the many activities in which she is encouraged to take part in. The staff are very nice and really seem to care about residents. My Mum's clothes and things always find their way back to her and her room is kept tidy and clean. She seems to enjoy the food, especially cake and fruit in the afternoons. Her care needs are reviewed and adapted when needed, it was a difficult decision to put my Mum in a care home but it was the right choice and I'm glad I chose Hen Cloud.
Thank you so much for the lovely review. We are very happy that you are happy with the care that your mum receives. And we are glad your mum loves the cake! Thank you for your support.
I still echo what a fantastic place that always ensures my mum's well-being comes first as all staff professionally work together to meet all my mum's requirements. I will always be grateful to Hen Cloud and the staff/ management as they not only support my mum but they give us guidance and...
Once again a massive thank you to all the staff and management team who work tirelessly to achieve positive, proactive outcomes for all.
Thank you so much for your review. We are very happy that we are able to give your family and loved ones everything that is needed. We will pass on your lovely comments to all of the team.

Booked mum in for respite end of May or early June for two weeks, no cheerful greeting on arrival took time to be shown to her room, no introduction, not a great first impression. On further visits to mum, sometimes could not get in as no one on reception. Had to extend her stay for five nights due to G.I. Infection on Doctors' advice, and felt this was not welcomed by the staff. When I asked to speak to a Manager sorry she is in a meeting all day! Always appear to be short of staff, long wait for any attention.
Mum has been a resident since April 2021 and although we have seen numerous changes in staff and managers, the care given has always been excellent. Recently, with a fall and hospital stay, Mum's needs have changed and the carers have been excellent in changing and adapting their care to meet her...
The activities are excellent and varied - all credit to the activities coordinator.
We really appreciate your feedback and I will pass the positive comments on to our activities coordinator as well.
As a friend of a resident at Hen Cloud House, I have been impressed by the level of compassion and dedication demonstrated by staff towards the residents. The atmosphere at Hen Cloud is warm and inviting, the staff are attentive to the needs of each individual and go above and beyond to ensure...
I am pleased with the cleanliness - the living spaces are kept tidy and well-maintained.
While no care home is without its challenges, I believe that Hen Cloud House does an excellent job of providing a safe and supportive environment for its residents. I would highly recommend it to anyone in search of quality care for their loved ones!
Thank you so much for your very kind and positive review. It is very much appreciated and we will endeavour to continue to strive to be excellent.

The staff are exceptionally caring and if their efforts to meet her needs are not met it is due to circumstances beyond their control such as staffing levels and levels of agency staffing. The lack of consistent senior management has also played a part.
I still feel that communication is an area that could always be improved on.
The effort to provide stimulation and enjoyment within the home is exemplary and I attribute this to how well my sister has settled and her mental health being.
The only problem that we have is that.
Mum dose not get her daily paper, and I have raised this quite a few times, please see if you can address this for me.
Apart from that I have no problems recommending the home.

I will ensure that the newspapers are sorted every morning. I apologise for this issue.
There is regular entertainment, and residents are actively encouraged and stimulated to take part wherever possible.

The home itself is beautiful and welcoming to family members at all times.
It took a while for my mother to settle there due to her dementia but I feel she is very well looked after and all her needs are being met.
I am very glad that you are happy with your mother's care and I am happy that she eventually settled with us.
No effort has been spared to make the transition into care as smooth as possible. Very helpful and attentive staff and delightful surroundings. We have been very happy with every aspect of Hen Cloud House.
