As the daughter of a resident, it’s important that my mum has entertainment involved in her care. She has always been a big music lover and loved to be involved in activities.

My mother has been a long term resident at Mill House due to her suffering from dementia. Since a fall causing a broken hip in November 2021, and a continued deterioration in her cognition her needs are now complex. I feel all the staff, whatever their role work hard to meet her needs and make her feel
safe and content. Our concerns as relatives are also understood and questions are answered in both a friendly and professional way.

My wife has been in Millhouse for eleven months. She had suffered a stroke which left her with multiple needs. The support and care she has received has been outstanding. The nursing staff and carers have been very professional, whilst showing tenderness and care when carrying out their duties. We went
to great lengths to choose a nursing home that would provide the best care that my wife needed. Also, the facilities that would provide the support for the family and the guidance that we needed. Needless to say, we have not been disappointed.

My wife has been a resident at Mill House since December 2022. She has Alzheimer’s which has progressed to a severe level, requiring a high level of support to meet all basic needs. The staff here are friendly and professional and work extremely hard to ensure she is safe and content. Communication
is good and I am well-informed about her health and well-being. Facilities are good and a range of activities are provided to keep residents stimulated.

My mum has been a resident of Mill House for almost a year; she is doing so well under the care and companionship of Mill House residents and staff. Life now is probably better for Mum than it has been for a few years, with on-tap entertainment, great food, a hairdresser etc, and some wonderful hairy
visitors. It's always a pleasure for me to visit too, and know she is safe and sound.

In my experience, Mill House and the wonderful staff have always shown great warmth and care to all the residents. They treat everyone with great respect and there is always a happy atmosphere when I visit. The activities help to keep the residents motivated and all seem settled and happy. My husband
is always warmly welcomed.

Due to my mother's complex needs, following a stroke and a lengthy stay in hospital, we agonised over which nursing home would be best for her. The process was totally daunting and everywhere we looked, there always seemed to be a compromise and then I found Mill House. Right from the offset, I was
assured that she would have the very best care, in the loveliest of settings and with lots of social activities going on too. It was arranged for us to meet the team, to allay any concerns and for the very first time, we felt confident that we had found the right setting for my mum. She arrived in September, and as expected, there were some initial settling issues, but how the staff dealt with them was reassuring to both mum and the family as a whole. Nothing is ever too much trouble, and the care and compassion that has been shown to mum from all of the staff, from the manager down, has been exemplary and professional at all times. Thank you does not seem sufficient!

My 93-year-old friend was extremely worried about going into a care home and was very concerned about the quality of food, as he loves to eat, his dignity during personal care because he is a very self-conscious private person and the way he would be spoken to and addressed by the staff. I'm happy to
say none of those worries did he need to be concerned about. He's been looked after with absolute compassion and kindness, lovely choice of meals and he's treated with dignity at all times.
I can't recommend Mill House or the staff and care team enough and my friend has flourished with the care he has received. He has a lovely room overlooking the fields and couldn't be happier.

I always love coming to visit Mum at Mill House. Everyone is always very kind and friendly. There is a sense of calmness that I notice, even when I know everyone must be very busy. Mum seems very content, and I know she is well cared for. She has pleasant and nutritious meals. I'm so glad she is here.

The care my aunt has received since emergency admission has been good. The staff have been kind and supportive throughout the pandemic.
The medical plan of care has been difficult to access. There was confusion over the optician and no known dental care.
We have requested physio and a better walking
frame which would have helped to prevent falls.
Unfortunately, the bathroom has not been kept as clean as one would expect.
However, most importantly, my aunt is safe and happy.

My husband was admitted on end of life care with dementia over a year before he died in April 2022. He was there throughout the pandemic, under very difficult circumstances, and the staff were always kind, patient and understanding of both my husband's complex needs and my own emotional rollercoaster.
They were always good at keeping me informed and enabling visits. There is very much a caring, family feel to the home. They supported me as well as my husband.

Although my husband was only in Mill House for three weeks before he passed away, his care and comfort was exceptional. He was clean and comfortable every time I visited, had been washed, changed, shaved, hair combed and looked immaculate. Their lifting equipment was comfortable, simple and easy. He
settled quickly into his routine and seemed happy when I visited. His main carer was exceptional and knew so much about dementia and in particular Capgras Syndrome which my husband suffered from (and some doctors know nothing of). His main nurse was also wonderful and caring - the agency nurses were not quite so good though.
I would often see his carer dancing with the other residents in the lounge, her attention to detail was phenomenal, and she really cared. She was with my husband when he died.
One member of staff, in particular, on reception, was most helpful - all were extremely helpful - I was more than happy to leave my husband in their excellent care.

All the staff at Mill House are very professional and treat my father with great respect. The care and medical teams do a great job, providing for all his needs and are always cheerful when dealing with him. The entertainment team are always looking for ideas to stimulate him and do a great job in getting
entertainment into the home which I know he really enjoys.
I do feel that, due to covid and not being able to get maintenance staff into the home, his room and the lounge are starting to look a bit tired and need refreshing.
I also feel that over the last 12 months the quality of food has fallen and the food doesn’t look as appetising given the fees he is paying.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.743)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.743) out of 10 for Mill House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 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 4.743 for Mill House is calculated as follows: ( (109 Excellents x 5) + (26 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 140 Ratings = 4.743

  • 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 Mill House is based on 12 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 45 registered maximum number of service users is 9, which has been reached with 12 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.
