Thank you for your very honest review. Those first few weeks of settling into a care home can be tough for everyone but our experienced team members quickly get to know their residents and how to best reassure them.
It is lovely to read that you believe your mum is safe and well cared for. Thank you for sharing this.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review.
Each of our homes has a rolling environmental plan which is regularly reviewed to keep on track. Often in care homes part of that plan are also the bits of the home you don't see but I will follow up on the points you raised.
All team members should wear name badges so I'll raise this with the home manager.
It's good to read that you feel the staff do a great job. We think so too!
With best wishes.

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.577) out of 10 for Hilltop Court Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.
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 4.577 for Hilltop Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (85 Excellents x 5) + (27 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 123 Ratings = 4.577
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 Hilltop Court Care Home is based on 11 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 50 registered maximum number of service users is 10, which has been reached with 11 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.
