Hart care is a lovely, vibrant home! The staff are kind and very welcoming. The residents are very nice and friendly. As an agency worker, I frequently work at Hart care and return all the time due to enjoying working with the company! The company care a lot about the residents and always aim to provide the best care possible! Another reason I enjoy the company is because of how accepting they have been! As a non permanent staff member I have been made to feel very welcome. A big shout out to the friendly reception dog, who always manages to light up the long shifts we do with his loving energy

I have been lucky enough to work with Hart Care for several months. The whole team are compassionate and professional. The care given is personal centred and always of the highest quality. The management team are responsive to people's needs and constantly lead by excellent example. There have been positive improvements to the service and it keeps getting better all the time. I feel very proud to be part of the Hart team.

My auntie has been at Hart Care for a few months now and have been extremely impressed with the care and support she has received. The staff are so friendly and helpful and my auntie is very settled and happy. I understand that the care home has made lots of changes recently and can see the improvements when visiting the home. Thank you all at Hart Care and keep up the good work.

I have worked at Hart Care for the past 11 years within 2 different departments and throughout this time I have always felt proud to be part of a team which is constantly striving to be the best that we can for our Residents. The Directors and Management team are fully committed to achieving the highest standards in all areas of the home and this is the ethos that is expected from all staff. I believe that we are a great team, hardworking, professional and still able to provide a warm welcoming environment that our Residents can call Home. The reason for not giving the Home 5 stars is that there
