My mother has come here for rehabilitation on an Intermediate Care Scheme.
It has a warm, caring atmosphere. All the staff are devoted to their residents and committed to doing the best job possible. The food is homemade, plentiful and it looks absolutely delicious.
Staff treat my mum like a regular
resident. They are kind and patient with me to in spite of my anxieties about my mum.

My mother was cared for from 25/7/18 to 5/8/18. During that time the staff have been wonderful and so caring and considerate to her (and all of her family). She has been treated with dignity and respect and lots of humour which I feel is so important. Her last days with you were special and we appreciate
that so much.

My mother-in-law had been in and out of hospital three times when it was evident she couldn't manage on her own at home. Going into the home to give her time to recover from the operation was fantastic she had time support and meals provided which meant she recovered. Now she is ably living in her own
home.

My sister has been a self-funding resident in the EMI ward of Hollie Hill since 24/04/2008 with advanced Alzheimer's Disease. The EMI ward is on the ground floor with access to a secure garden. Residents are normally washed and dressed for meals and helped with feeding where necessary. They are encouraged
to walk when able. The bed in my sister's room has an 'active' mattress to reduce the risk of bed sores. Medical attention appears to be prompt and I have been advised whenever this has been necessary. Trips out for residents have always been a few compared with claims from other homes but now my sister would be unable to participate. Staff spend some individual time talking to residents though recently effort appeared reduced due to increase in monitoring paperwork. The home is clean and has had modifications and bright redecoration at least once during our involvement.

Staff are extremely friendly, caring and professional. I know that my mother will be looked after without fear of her being rushed into A&E at the first problem. I feel totally satisfied and reassured that I can leave her to go on holiday and more importantly she feels safe and very happy. The staff
have gone the extra mile to help her settle in for which I am totally grateful.

Mam was a resident for 9 weeks until her death. During that time she received excellent care, all the staff treated her with true kindness and dignity. On the day she arrived a carer said 'this is your mam's home for a while and it is also yours, help yourselves to tea/coffee etc'.


The home itself

has a lovely calm welcoming atmosphere and there was always someone available to answer our questions and guide us through this very sad time. I'll never forget when mam had a hospital appointment; they got her ready, did her hair, she looked a million dollars, and after getting back later we were exhausted, a lovely lady arrived with a tray of tea and cake.
Hollie Hill should be proud of their amazing dedicated staff. Thank you.

My grandmother was admitted for end of life care. The carers and staff treated her with dignity and respect, making her as comfortable as she could be in her final days. They also made us as a family very welcome and showed us compassion.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.456)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.456) out of 10 for Hollie Hill Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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 4.456 for Hollie Hill Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (101 Excellents x 5) + (66 Goods x 4) + (13 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 182 Ratings = 4.456

  • 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 Hollie Hill Care Home is based on 15 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 62 registered maximum number of service users is 12.4, which has been reached with 15 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.
