Review from T S (Friend of Resident) published on 8 December 2023 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
This was the fourth time using The Boltons for our family friend and again a successful visit our family friend said the staff were lovely the food was good and the "hotel" was clean concluding she said she would go again
Well done The Boltons everyone is always welcoming and friendly and obviously, it looks like the owners of the homework as hard as their staff and always take an active role within the home

Review from D W (Daughter of Resident) published on 11 September 2023 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
I’d like to say what a lovely well-run care home The Boltons is. My mum has been well looked after and is now putting on weight as she is eating again. She has dementia. The care staff are absolutely lovely, one member of staff in particular is so caring, always happy and never have I seen such a great team of carers.

Inspection ratings
We rate most services according to how safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led they are, using four levels:
- Outstanding - The service is performing exceptionally well.
- Good - The service is performing well and meeting our expectations.
- Requires Improvement - The service isn't performing as well as it should and we have told the service how it must improve.
- Inadequate - The service is performing badly and we've taken action against the person or organisation that runs it.
- Not rated - we have not yet rated this area of the service, this is normally because the assessments we have carried out have been focused on other key questions.
