Reviews for Harper Fields Care Home

Wish we had found Harper Fields earlier for my father.
Sadly we needed their services in a hurry, and they went above and beyond to facilitate it. Helping the whole family in the process.
My father was only there a very short time, but during that time we felt completely confident about the care he was getting and the professionalism.
The liaison with hospital and GP was excellent and they were there when we needed them.
Thank you.

I visited this care home shortly after they had completed a significant renovation project and was extremely impressed.

The standard of the accommodation and community areas was very high, the whole place very clean and all the staff members to whom I was introduced were very friendly and polite.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Harper Fields.

My 93 year old Father has just had a two week respite stay here. Staff very friendly & attentive, food menu varies daily and overall home is clean and nicely presented. If he needs care in the future, he’s keen to go back

It was a great pleasure to visit our Harper Fields home today. How nice it is to see residents enjoying their home and staff continuing to provide ongoing support well done 🍀🌻🌍!

I visit Harperfields to deliver singing for health and mind. I always receive a friendly welcome and the home is always clean. The staff are wonderful, they join in the activities which encourages the residents to join in too. There is a great relationship with the staff and residents and everyone seems happy to be there, which is wonderful to see. I love watching everyone singing along and thoroughly enjoying themselves.

"2 weeks in June, overall I was very contented and well looked after, as I was only booked for 2 weeks I wasn't concerned too much re any problems. I noticed that mealtimes ran much smoother when there were sufficient staff on duty, frequently short staffed some breakfast times. The food wasn't always to my taste but I tried to eat everything and certainly haven't been hungry."

"Overall, we find the standard of care very good and the staff are helpful, friendly and caring. Some staff members, in particular, go above and beyond to resolve queries regarding residents' care and health and to encourage them to take part in activities."

"We asked for dad to be admitted to Harper Fields as he was vunerable at home due to a series of falls. He feels much safer and settled here. The staff are so warm and friendly. Dad is happier here than he has been in a long time."

"My mum has received excellent, kind care & attention since moving into Harper Feilds. Earlier this year, her medical & mental needs have been promptly & effectively attended to. Both the nursing & care team are very professional & friendly and have made her and our family very at home and welcome."

"My wife has Alzheimer's and has now been in Harper Fields for four weeks. I cannot fault anything; she is definitely more content there than she was at home and is looked after by wonderful caring staff who have also been very supporting to me. The staff treat everyone with respect and kindness. I have no complaints there. The whole process of admitting my wife (who does not have awareness of her condition) was handled with great understanding. Also, the carers help when visiting, particularly when saying goodbye can be stressful. I have no doubts that my wife is being looked after in the best possible way."

"We needed dementia care and nursing care for our frail relative with complex needs. Even though she was only there a few weeks our experience was very positive. All of the staff are polite, professional, helpful, kind and well trained. As a doctor for many years I was sooo impressed. The care has made what was a difficult time for us as pleasant and peaceful as it could be. A big shout out for the chaplain who offers spiritual support to those who want it. She is so kind. The home is welcoming, clean and lots of activities going on. A real community"

"My partner spent a week @ Harpers Fields - I was very worried as it was our first ever experience of respite. I really didn't need to as, she was welcomed warmly and so much respect - with her likes and needs a top priority. He room and the home overall was spotless, staff visible - doing their best to keep it so. Food was lovely. Plenty of choice - healthy options too. I was pleased to see a variety of activities. Staff were so kind and caring. I felt I was leaving her in good hands. We would use this place again as I have peace of mind."

"My father went onto palliative caring in hospital + we needed to find a suitable nursing home for him. From the moment we walked through the door of Harper Fields we felt welcome + that a) they could cater for his needs + b) that he would be well looked after. The staff went to great lengths to facilitate his discharge + welcomed us all when he arrived. Sadly his stay was very short but we had total confidence that the nursing team could meet his needs - + they did. Thank you. It meant the world."

"My mother was still poorly on arrival to Harper Fields. The care from the Nurses care manager, carers, Ancilliary staff then and subsequently, have improved my mothers quality of life. The staff treat everyone as an individual, with respect and patience. The personal care and hygiene is a credit to the staff. Even on the busiest of days the Residents are calm and give time. Attention to detail is excellent."

"I spent 3 weeks at Harper Fields recuperating from a fall and surgery. The staff were absolutely excellent, kind and caring - nothing was too much trouble for them. The room was comfortable, but there was an ongoing problem with no hot water in the bathroom which was not resolved during my stay. The food was very disappointing - bland and lacking in variation. This was a shame given how excellent and dedicated the staff are."
