"Absolutely disgusted since Barchester took over. The room and toilet are filthy! When I took Dad out this week, I took photographic evidence. Dad never had his clothes and always someone else's. Dad's new clothes were "lost". I lost a lot of money. Dad's fingernails are always filthy and long. Dad has lost over two stone, looks awful, dirty, thin and uncared for."

My sister and I have been able to visit Mum in the pod which has been great and the staff have been very accommodating in fitting us in, for that we are very grateful, thank you. Knowing mum is safe and being looked after is a huge relief. The outside needs a tidy-up."

"Obviously, during the pandemic, it has been difficult to really give a well-informed opinion of the overall facilities and care. From the good rapport, my mum has with the carers that I have seen I am pleased that she is comfortable in their care. I hope soon that hairdressing will resume and other activities to raise my mums' interest. A little disappointed that we can only have one visit a week at the moment and it can be difficult sometimes to speak to mum on the phone."

"My father went to Hampton Grove for respite to give my mum a break. He walked into the care home walking and talking but came out in a wheelchair and has never been able to talk to us again and an ambulance had to be called when we got him home. He was admitted to hospital with a bad UTI which had been undetected by the care home. During his two weeks stay, he had two falls, having never fallen over at home at all since his dementia diagnosis or stroke. We struggled to get any details of what happened and what injuries he had, communication within the care home team was very poor and also communication to my mother. I had to call a meeting with the assistant manager to get some kind of answers which she was reluctant to have and during that meeting it became pretty apparent how bad communication was. Once we got my father's belongings back, quite a few items of clothing were and still are missing but to our horror in his case were items including medication belonging to other people."

"Do not use this company. My 98 yr old father stayed here for one week and really did not enjoy the experience. He said that no one talked to him, so our explanation that he was profoundly deaf, was ignored. On collecting him all his clothes were in the laundry, even though we had expressly said not to wash them, and I was told that they could not retrieve his clothes for 5 days! I made a complaint in person and was not offered anything but apologies, even though we had to buy extra clothes for him in the interim. We had him booked for a haircut and they couldn't even manage to get him to that, they forgot..... When we got him home his speech was slurred due to lack of fluids, which took days to reverse, our doctor had to put him on hydration medication! I hate to think what state he would have been in after 2 weeks. We felt so guilty that we had left our lovely, frail dad, with people who just care about the numbers. I'm sure this is down to poor management."

Although quite a private person, Mum made lovely new friends with both residents and carers and enjoyed activities such a char aerobics, cake decorating and crafts. I could call or visit whenever I wanted and was always welcomed and brought up to date with and medical needs etc. They really upped their game during the covid pandemic, quickly locking down the home, wearing PPE and having staff and residents tested.

"My mother has been a permanent resident here for just over two years, and as neither my sister nor myself live close by, I am totally dependent upon the carers and administration staff for all aspects of my mother’s wellbeing; a task that they perform admirably. They are all friendly, caring, efficient and good communicators, and I know they will always contact me if there is anything she needs. I am, therefore, confident that my mother is in capable hands."

"Avery House has a lovely setting and within a dedicated team of carers plus all of the other roles - managers, administrators, activities people, housekeepers, catering and maintenance staff - whose work is vital to provide a safe, secure and welcoming home for elderly people. It is a fairly large home which affords a highly-developed organisation but it still has a warm feel to it because the staff are friendly, and as it has four floors, each floor is like a little home in itself. I've always observed that residents are treated with warmth and dignity and I know that my mother is well looked after here."

The team at this care home were excellent in the way they came to the hospital to assess Mum and explained all the procedures very clearly when my wife and I previously visited the care home. The transfer by the NHS was smooth and the welcome at the home was comforting and well carried out. Mum has a lovely light room and has settled in well with excellent support from all the staff. This move has taken a lot of stress out of our lives."

"My great aunt moved from her home of 50 years into Avery House Care home in May 2017. This was a huge lifestyle change and initially, she was upset as she could no longer live independently. The management and staff were extremely kind, caring and welcoming and this gave us (her family) huge comfort knowing she would receive the care and attention she required. The facilities and room were homely, clean and a very high standard. Unfortunately, my aunt died of a heart attack in September 2017 and the kindness, support and care they gave not only to my aunt but the family, went above and beyond expectations. They are simply amazing."

"Avery House has been a lifesaver for my father and me. Following a stroke, he was withdrawn, not getting out of bed or washing (even with carers) while living in his own home. Once in Avery, he was helped out of bed in the mornings. He is clean and happy. He is well fed and can mix with others though chooses often to eat in his room. He is helped with all daily activities. The staff are very caring and compassionate, despite my father having some inappropriate behaviour. The home is well run. Every one smiles and chats when I visit (daily). My only negative points are it is quite expensive compared to some other homes. But are they as good as Avery?"

The home is kept immaculately clean and up to date with its decor, my sister-in-law's room on the ground floor overlooks a beautiful garden through her patio doors.

"Avery House has restored my faith in residential care. My mother who suffers from Alzheimers was initially admitted for emergency respite care when my father was hospitalised but is now permanent. I have been impressed with the very good care shown as well as the approachability and friendliness of staff who listen and try to accommodate clients' needs. Medical care has been good and appropriate. My father is now also in residential care at Avery House, initially for respite following his hospitalisation, but has now requested to stay and he really likes it there. It was a welcome surprise to be invited for a care review for both parents to discuss any concerns or issues I might have had. I was also grateful of the offer of an escort for a hospital appointment. For me the only improvement is that there seems to be a loss of personal clothing through the laundry process. I have been a carer from afar and wish I could find somewhere equivalent on the South Coast closer to my home."

"My wife was a resident of Avery House for five months until January 2017. She has Alzheimers and has difficulty in communicating her needs. The management and staff managed her difficulties with care and imagination and were always ready to chat and distract her if she was agitated or upset, over and above what was expected. Any problems were dealt with immediately. There was always a friendly welcome and I felt she was in a safe, secure environment. She was settled, enjoyed the activities. Unfortunately, her condition deteriorated to a point where she had to leave for a more suitable environment. Many thanks to Avery House."
