My mother had a short respite stay with the view to staying but regretfully it did not work out for her. The staff were very friendly and helpful and tried very hard to make her comfortable. If circumstances change I would certainly consider trying the service again.

I have experience of this home from when my mother spent 2 and a half years there and was delighted that they could take my aunty for respite.
The facilities are second to none, tip top condition, smart and clean. The staff are outstanding and go out of their way to make the residents and visitors
part of their community. Time of day and smiles all round every time you visit - excellent!

After viewing Millfield we felt that it was the right place for our mum. Having waited for a vacancy, we have not been disappointed.
Mum has been treated with respect and had her dignity restored, she is much more engaged and is actually enjoying her days, rather than waiting for them to pass. The
staff are without doubt very caring and respectful and have met needs mum didn't realise she had. In the short time we have been here I have observed many wonderful interactions between staff and residents, who are treated as adults. This is a care home that should be a model to all others.

We initially found Millfield online plus we had a recommendation from a friend. We could not be happier with the facility and how they take care of our mother. The management and staff do a wonderful job and the rooms and public areas are clean and maintained to a very high standard. We would highly
recommend Millfield to anyone without reservation.

My sister has Alzheimers and the staff have dealt with her in a very caring and understanding way. They have infinite patience with her. I feel that she is safe, secure and very well cared for.

Cannot recommend this home highly enough A*. All residents treated as individuals and people. The staff really do care and not only care they respect all the residents. They cannot do enough and not only for the residents but also for the family and visitors- if only all care homes were like this one.

The home is exceedingly clean and it is noticeable that there are no bad odours that sometimes hits you as you enter other care homes. The entire environment is clean, tidy and welcoming. The staff are really friendly and obviously love the work they do in the day to day care of the residents. At meal
times there are choices and even if my mum doesn't like what is on offer on the standard menu she is offered an alternative. There is no "take it or leave it" attitude. The staff are a joy and I know mum is being cared fro in the best care home.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.922)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.922) out of 10 for Millfield is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 38 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 38 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.922 for Millfield is calculated as follows: ( (417 Excellents x 5) + (25 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 447 Ratings = 4.922

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Millfield is based on 38 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 38 registered maximum number of service users is 7.6, which has been reached with 38 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
