Hello Roberta. It is with heartfelt saddness and regret that your mum passed away in the hospital as a result of requiring surgery. The areas you have raised in your review have been fully investigated by the home and the Care Inspectorate to which you have received a response. At no time would your mum have been a hindrance to the staff within Hill View as they are extremely dedicated to the work they do. We are saddened that things did not turn out as expected, we do prioritise the resident experience and will take forward lessons learned. Best wishes.

The Review Score of 8.5 (8.460) out of 10 for Hill View 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 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.7 out of 5 from 5 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 4.793 for Hill View Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (48 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 58 Ratings = 4.793
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 3.667 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Hill View Care Home is based on 5 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 = 3.5
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 150 registered maximum number of service users is 30. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 30 = 0.167
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.

Job Title: Home Manager
Joined: 2020
"I have been in the care sector for 18 years, both in the NHS and in care homes, and I am a Registered Nurse with an SVQ 4 Management Award.
I've had the great privilege of being at Hill View since October 2020, firstly as a Deputy Manager and then as Home Manager from July 2021.
My goal has always been to make Hill View a home away from home for the residents that live here and we like to make sure that they are involved in everything that we do.
I'm very hands-on and if I'm not in my office you'll probably find me playing dominoes or having a sing-song with the residents."
