"Mum has been happy, comfortable and content in Barchester Hempton Field Care Home despite vowing she'd never go into a home. Her frailty has necessitated the move. All the staff have been so kind and considerate to her and made a difficult time as pleasant as it can be."

"Very good - people polite, helpful. It's not like some places where you go and it's not welcoming - everyone takes time to get to know you. Everyone is friendly, cheerful and makes you feel at home. I come every day to visit my partner and the care here is marvellous, they look after me as much as they do my partner!"

"I found the home and staff were excellent with all aspects of care. Also, I found that my mother in law was treated very well with dignity during the past few days after returning to the home from the hospital. The staff were also very compassionate and caring to all members of the family."

"Hempton is a bright and extremely friendly home. I have visited a number of homes in the past and this home is light, fresh and appears to be well run. Mum made the very difficult decision to move into full-time care, but it was made easier for her because she felt well looked after and settled. It is a pleasure to visit her at Hempton."

"Excellent. Staff were caring and considerate, creating a warm and hospitable atmosphere which is also a credit to the management. The catering was first class and the meals were delightful. The interlude between hospital and going home could not have been better."

"I am 94 and until 2013, I drove a care, had dogs and went shooting. I can no longer look after myself. Illness has happened, balance and memory going. They are wonderfully kind and cheerful all of them and we have constant, trained medical care so it couldn't be better. For me, dreamy beyond words. I am very lucky."

"The gardens are lovely to walk around and beautifully kept up. Room comfortable and clean. I would prefer the door to be kept closed when possible during the day as other people's TV can be very noisy and turned up loud especially in the evenings. At night the home is mainly quiet."

"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."

"Hempton Field is an excellent care home, well run and with lovely caring staff. Any problems or change in medication and I am notified immediately. My partner is happy, kept clean and although her food has to be pureed it always looks appetizing. A home can only be as good as it's staff and at Hempton Field that's 5 star +"

"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."

"We chose Hempton Field because we knew that the manager was a competent and caring one. She inspires her staff to provide a kind and homely setting for older people. When my husband was ill, Hempton Field nursed him back to health by ensuring that appropriate medical help was called in and I am very satisfied with the care they provide."

"My husband was at Hempton Field for nearly 9 months. His needs were extensive and complex. The nurses and carers couldn't have been more caring and compassionate. In fact, all the staff irrespective of their capacity, seemed genuinely interested in the welfare of the residents and supported not only them but the immediate family as well. 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."

"When my husband and I first stepped into Hempton Field Care Home, we were relieved to find a beautiful, clean, welcoming and homely residence. Our first impression was continually reinforced by the dedicated staff who, along with their professionalism, showed a genuine care for all the residents. Staff enjoy chatting to residents and visitors; we have seen how this has helped my mother make connections and feel at home. She has told us that she is very happy there, has made friends, and looks forward to the daily activities and particularly, the weekly hairdressers visit! Thank you to all the wonderful staff!"

"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 father spent 8 years at the home and was extremely well cared for and retained his dignity and humour throughout his time there. I would thoroughly recommend the home but found the cost, particularly over such a long period of time, prohibitive."

"I have taken my father to Hempton Field several times this year for respite care. Lovely place with beautiful gardens and pots. Friendly staff and my father enjoys the food, very welcoming, laundry done and we can always ting to see how he is when staying there. Pleasant rooms and very clean. It's good to have somewhere to take him for respite that he likes and feels safe."

"My brother was admitted with Leukaemia and received excellent care from all the staff. Their dedication was not only kindness shown to my brother, but to our family. Hempton Field Care Home at Christmas also looked after my uncle with the same care, so would recommend it."

"The Hempton Field Care home manager and her staff are so special to our family. In an incredibly horrible time in our lives when we needed support. 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."

"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."

"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."
