"My stepfather stayed for 6 weeks respite care whilst his wife was recovering from a knee operation. Lovely setting with beautiful gardens, attentive staff, excellent food and good variety of activities to keep residents stimulated. Well appointed room with good level of cleanliness. Would highly recommend."

"My mother spent eight days in the hospital with leg pains, unable to walk. Removed her from the hospital to the care home. The attention she received was excellent, leg pain reduced in days with the change of medication, so much so, that after three weeks she was asking to go home. Thanks to all the staff for the attention received, mum has stated if her condition has a turn for the worse, she would be quite happy to return."

"I was admitted for a short respite following a brief stay in hospital. My immediate response was how attractive the site and interior of the care home and the warm welcome from the staff. My room was comfortable, en-suite with garden views. At this time because of coronavirus, a negative test is required before admission. All the staff were meticulous with us of masks/gloves. The menus were varied and the food excellent. Day and night care included carers and nursing care. Management is without a doubt excellent. Thank you to one and all"

"My mother has been in Hempton Field for over 3 years now. The care and love she receives from all the staff is amazing. They are patient, kind and very tolerant and she is totally "At home" because of their care. She recently celebrated her 100th birthday and we gave a little party. Mum is a very private person normally and mainly stays happily in her room but on that day she shone with happiness and all the extra fuss everyone made of her! What a day for us all! We, as a family, will never be able to thank the staff enough for all the unstinting care they give her. As she says “they are my family “what more could you want! Thank you Hempton Field!"

"As we all know, the current situation we find ourselves in is incredibly hard, harder still when you cannot visit your loved ones (my Nan - 100). The lockdown at Hempton Field is keeping all residents safe and as family members, we could not ask for better care! The staff at Hempton Field have gone above and beyond to offer videocall sessions for residents and families. I am able to speak to my Nan at least once a via video call and it makes my week! She also gets to see her 2yr old Great Grandson and their wonderful relationship can continue, even if only virtually for now. A huge thank you to everyone at Hempton Field for keeping my Nan safe, for loving her in our absence and for keeping her smiling! We can’t wait to be able to come and thank you in person and visit Nan but for now, please know that we are eternally grateful to you all!"

"Would highly recommend. From initial contact and making an appointment to look around, to our father moving in and later leaving, everybody at Hempton Field was caring with a 'can do' attitude. The room and facilities were very clean and comfortable, a very homely, cheerful atmosphere. Updates regarding care were treated seriously and with great sensitivity. Nothing was too much trouble, feel lucky to have been able to access care at Hempton Field for my father."

"What a special day we had on Saturday 18th Jan 2020 mum's 100th birthday. We were celebrating with a party in the lounge at Hempton Field, a really beautiful room. From the start of the day until bedtime mum was treated like royalty! Nothing was too much trouble and it was the little things that were so touching, getting her dressed, putting her makeup on etc, the care was unbelievable while all the time her dignity was paramount. The food was excellent and the presentation first class too. I cannot thank the manager and her amazing staff for all their care and compassion not just on Saturday but every day, I can’t thank you enough. Hempton Field is a lovely home (from home) where not only do they care for the residents but also for the family as a whole."

"We needed to find residential care accommodation for our mother and were impressed by how straightforward this was to arrange at Hempton Field and with the warm welcome we received from everyone. The room provided is clean, comfortable and tastefully furnished and opens onto a well-tended garden. Mealtimes are sociable events and most residents choose to eat together. The food is home-cooked and appetising. The manager is professional, approachable and fully involved in the care of all residents. She leads a team of first-class staff; most of whom are local, having worked at Hempton Field for many years, which gives a real sense of community. Everyone we have met has treated our mother with dignity and respect. An excellent Occupational Therapist organises stimulating activities every day. Our mother’s physical and mental health has fluctuated since she has been at HF and throughout she has received appropriate and necessary care from a team of kind, competent and compassionate staff."

"Mum lived at Hempton Fields for over 5 years and, apart from a year when the home was being transformed under new management and standards dropped, was extremely well treated and looked after. The last two weeks of her life there were very happy and we really felt that the staff did all they could both for Mum and for us as a family during this difficult time. They went beyond the call of duty in keeping her comfortable and cared for and two members of staff sat wither in her final moments. We felt they became part of our family."

"I have just got my aunt who is (100 and a half years of age) into Hempton Field, after a long struggle to get her to leave the cottage she lived in for 70 years. I have had great support from the team in encouraging to move, her social, hospital and her care workers have said she was not fit to live alone (bed-bound and nearly blind). But being a feisty old lady it's been very hard work getting her into a home. I cannot believe how well she's settled due to this amazing home and wonderful staff, so kind and thoughtful."

"My mother has been a resident here for 3 years and we are so pleased with her accommodation and care. It is a small home so the staff know all the residents. Many of the staff are local and have worked at Hempton Field for years. It is always clean and never smells like a hospital. It has a light, airy feel and many of the rooms have a door into the garden. Gardens are beautifully kept. The OTs organise activities 5days a week. They also arrange for external entertainers to visit and have a bus which takes residents out occasionally. All the staff seem to get on well together. They are a small team so sometimes very busy, particularly in the mornings when so many residents want to get up at the same time. My mum has had serious mobility issues over the last year and the staff have been very caring and inclusive of her, including arranging for other residents to visit her in her room. Mum speaks very highly of the quality of the food. Nurses have been happy to explain her nursing care to me."

"Our dear friend sadly died on the 8th of February 2016. The end of life care was excellent, and has made his death a nice memory, he died peacefully with us with him to the very last. We feel his care was okay, but the price paid we expected a little more. I think the food could have been more tempting for him, particularly in the last two months. We were both very saddened that no one attended our friends funeral from the care home."

My mother needed space, kindness, a feeling of safety and comfort, she found it - and us, her family, felt absolutely certain of the care and safety she received. The residents are well looked after, I would not hesitate in recommending Hempton Field Care Home, the manager and the staff or using the home in the future. The home and the people are incredible."

"Our mother was a resident at Hempton Field for just over a year. She had settled well and was fairly happy. Unfortunately, a recent incident involving her personal security was, in our opinion poorly handled by management.

"My mother-in-law was a resident at this home from early 2015 to early 2016 and initially seemed happy. However, there was a marked decline in the standard of care which led to her family repeatedly having to chase staff in order that various issues were addressed. Meals were arriving cold, the quantity and quality of food has become notably poorer since the catering service was outsourced to a food service. Staff made significant errors on more than one occasion and often had to be reminded to perform what should have been basic tasks. On each occasion these shortfalls were reported to the manager and whilst some issues may have seemed minor in isolation a worrying pattern emerged as despite being reported to the Manager they continued to remain unresolved. Overall it was felt that the poor management of the home along with the standard and cost of care were unacceptable and my mother-in-law decided to move elsewhere."

I was impressed at the longevity of a lot of staff members, they know each other well and that seemed important to the general running of the home. Forever grateful. Thank you."
