The care my mother-in-law is receiving is outstanding. The staff show great empathy and always seem to go the extra mile. The home is welcoming, clean and odour-free. A range of activities are provided and as far as possible individual interests of the residents are taken into account. It feels more
like a hotel. Thank you.

My husband has been a resident at Greenhill Care Home for a month. He had several falls at our home, he was in hospital for 11 weeks. I knew I could not look after him in our home. It was a tough decision but Greenhill has made the move easier. The staff are pleasant and welcoming, they encourage him
to walk. His room is good too.

We were concerned about my mother staying in a care home but Greenhill Care Home has been a completely positive experience for all of us. The environment is safe and calm and the staff are exemplary, always available, kind, supportive and approachable. We are more than happy with Mother's care, she
is settled and relaxed. Thank you Greenhill.

The home is outstanding, from the care, the room, the staff, couldn't ask for better. Activities take into account of each resident's interests. Nothing is too much trouble. Management and staff are very informative about anything concerning my Dad. My dad loves it at Greenhill, plus it really gives
me the peace of mind that he is being cared for so well. 100% from everyone.

I don’t know anyone who would want to end up in a care home, least of all my mum! With that said if it did happen to me one day Greenhill is where I would go and I’m so glad we found it for Mum... What a fantastic welcoming and caring facility set in a beautiful location. I’ve been blown away by the
way every member of staff has engaged with my mum. She wants for nothing! There always seems to be a stream of delicious food and homemade cakes coming from the kitchen and a huge range of activities going on. The place is spotless warm and fresh with a real effort to engage with all the residents.

I visited a friend on 23rd of February. I was welcomed in and someone fetched my friend from the activities room without any protestations. We were taken to the new Daffodil Café Bar which she was proud of after the official opening. Not my first visit but each time she was happy, obviously well cared
for. Everywhere looks clean, bright, and welcoming. The staff are very pleasant and helpful. No one makes you feel like a nuisance. Hope you realize how important and appreciated your roles are for family and friends to know their loved ones are cared for. My own lovely Mum died in totally different 'care' home circumstances which I don't think I'll ever come to terms with.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

I cannot praise the management and staff at Greenhill enough for the wonderful care they gave to my sister in the few months she was a resident there. My sister had terminal cancer and originally went into Greenhill for respite care, but soon found she was surrounded by the most caring, respectful,
professional team who took such gentle care of her that she decided to stay until she died on the 13th of December 2023. I will never be able to thank them all enough for all their loving to care to my sister and also to myself and sister and I would have no hesitation in recommending Greenhill to anyone who may need their care. Without exception every member of staff are a credit to Shaw Healthcare. Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to write this review.

Greenhill Care Home is warm, inviting, friendly, joyful, a wonderful place to visit as a relative and work (I am a Chaplin, working through the church out in the community). We feel so blessed as a family that both mum-in-law and great-grandmother are so well cared for. The staff are so attentive, nothing
is too much trouble. The feeling is always one of positivity. They are led by a very caring, present manager who is fantastic and gets involved with all activities. Thank you so much for all you do.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.800)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.800) out of 10 for Greenhill Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 44 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 44 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 4.800 for Greenhill Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (431 Excellents x 5) + (74 Goods x 4) + (15 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 520 Ratings = 4.8

  • 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 Greenhill Care Home is based on 44 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 22 registered maximum number of service users is 4.4, which has been reached with 44 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.
