We cannot fault Cadley Hill View. The staff are amazing, friendly, understanding and compassionate to both our father and to myself and my sister. The speed at which the home could accept our father for respite care was exceptional and it was a relief at how much he loved staying with you. Thank you
so much.

I am very happy with Cadley Hill View and my mum has settled in very well. I do however have a suggestion, there appear no 'set procedures' for doing things e.g Mum was on a fluid cap and different staff operated different systems which confused/worried Mum. She was unclear whether the water left in
her jug was the total allowance still permissible. Surely there should be one procedure for handling this rather than each team/person operating their own preferred system.

Well fed and looked after.

Activities are available, but Nan doesn't take part much.

Before considering Cadley Hill View we looked around and it was by far the best in terms of providing an environment that felt homely for my mother-in-law. Since moving her in, on a two-week respite trial, the staff have all worked hard to help her acclimatise and make her feel she's at a home away
from home.

My father has been at Cadley Hill View for over a year now. In all that time the staff have been excellent and very friendly, making time to initially settle him in and now make sure he has everything he needs and is happy. He enjoys the quizzes, bingo and singers and especially enjoys wild minds (exercise).
The staff are also friendly and helpful to myself and other family members and I do feel that there is a lovely family, happy feel to Cadley Hill View.

I have been to visit my friend today and what a lovely care this is. From the minute you walk through the door, to the end of the visit it is amazing. The staff are so friendly, I am not old enough yet (65, haha) but this is where I would love my son's to send me to make this my last home.

I am so grateful we were able to get Mum back into Cadley Hill View care home from the hospital. The staff are so approachable, kind and compassionate as well as professional. There are always plenty of activities and entertainments which mum has appreciated in the past, even though she isn't currently
well enough to enjoy them. Good standards of care and accommodation.

My mother has recently become a resident at Cadley Hill View. As a family, we looked at a fair few rest homes before choosing Cadley Hill. Our initial impressions have been surpassed by the experience of my mother's stay. The atmosphere is very friendly and the ethos is of enabling and treating residents
with respect and dignity. The establishment is very well run and my mother has settled very well. Many thanks to all staff and residents for making my mother feel so welcome!

Absolutely stunning from the moment you walk in. Feels more like a hotel! The range of activities is awesome with in-house and trips out. The staff are amazing and so friendly and helpful. The rooms are beautiful. I'd move in myself if I could! It is so clean. If you fancy a tipple, then why not! They've
got it. Life doesn't stop here and why should it?

The building and facilities are excellent. Sometimes parking is difficult. The staff, without exception, are cheerful, caring and helpful. We are always welcomed. Mum hasn't had many extra care needs, but when asked the staff always go the extra mile. It is early days for us, but I sometimes am not
sure about the system i.e. ordering medicines so feel I've been a bit muddled, but I'm sure we'll sort that out. The carer on the top floor does seem as though she has a heavy workload. All in all, I feel happy with Mum staying at Cadley Hill View on respite.

Mum went to Cadley Hill in April. She settled in very well and made a lot of friends. I cannot fault the staff, who are very caring. The accommodation is lovely, just like a hotel. Very welcoming when you walk in. The activities and trips out are brilliant. Mum very much enjoys all her meals. Nothing
is too much trouble.

I knew as soon as I walked in that Cadley Hill View was where I wanted my mum to be. Not only does it look and feel like a 5* hotel, the staff are so friendly, so caring and treat both residents and their relations like family.
Since my mum moved in, 6 months ago, I have had total peace of mind seeing
her happy when I visit and knowing that when I leave she will be safe and well cared for. To me, this is priceless. Thank you.

Reply from Charlotte Jackson, Customer Care Administrator at Cadley Hill View

The care home is clean and tidy and run professionally. There are also cakes, chocolates and drinks available.
Individual care staff members are polite and pleasant - however, there seems to be very little interaction just to pass the time of day with residents who don't take part in activities, such
as just popping in to say hello or have a coffee with them. There is a lot of social media activity, but very focused on marketing.

I needed to find a suitable home quickly. I was offered a tour within 24 hours and the assessment, acceptance and move happened quickly and efficiently. I find all staff very approachable, easy to communicate with and very kind. Any requests are acted upon quickly and I find follow-ups to requests quite
refreshing. Clearly the environment is amazing and my relative is very happy in her new home.

Thank you for sending in this lovely review, we know that sometimes speed is of the essence when looking for a home but it is still important to get it right and we are very glad that you found Cadley Hill View and we could accommodate your relative.

This was my first visit to the home, and it certainly won't be the last. The Halloween activities and decorations were just all amazing, and every resident seemed to enjoy it. The bedrooms as well; they are the most beautiful and spacious rooms I've seen. The overall home reminded me of a high-class
hotel! Nothing was ever too much trouble for the staff either and the care given is 100%. Would definitely recommend it to others.

I had power of attorney for an elderly gentleman and was lucky enough to find Cadley Hill View shortly after it opened. I was thrilled with this beautiful and very well-run care home. The staff are so attentive and caring. My friend was very happy there. Unfortunately, he had to be admitted to hospital
before sadly passing away in August. Members of staff so kindly attended his funeral. I would recommend Cadley Hill View to anyone wanting a first-class residential home.

Reply from Terri Kidd, PR Executive at Cadley Hill View

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. It can be a difficult responsibility when taking power of attorney for someone, there can be a lot of pressure to get things right, and we are so pleased that we were able to support your friend and be the right home for him. We are so sorry for your loss but glad that, for a while at least, he could call Cadley home.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.811)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.811) out of 10 for Cadley Hill View 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 43 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 42 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 4.811 for Cadley Hill View is calculated as follows: ( (418 Excellents x 5) + (75 Goods x 4) + (10 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 503 Ratings = 4.811

  • 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 Cadley Hill View is based on 42 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 66 registered maximum number of service users is 13.2, which has been reached with 42 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.
