I found the home very friendly and caring. My mum is treated very well and is happy. She enjoys the activities and seems content in her surroundings. Very caring staff, above and beyond with care when I have been visiting. Very kind on the telephone too when you call to see how mum is doing.

Milton House is a true home, full of love, warmth and laughter. My friend is now calm and confident and cared for, and visiting her here is joyful, where it used to be upsetting and tearful in her previous home. All the staff are, quite frankly, exceptional.

Very friendly helpful staff.

Mum settled in really well and is so well looked after and cared for by the staff.
She enjoys her meals and they are varied and plentiful.
All you can ask is that your loved one is cared for and looked after and she most definitely is.
All staff are so friendly and welcoming.

I went to a barbi at Milton House as my partner was there, and I was the entertainer for the afternoon. Very good for and well-presented. Plenty of staff. Would go again if asked.

My partner, a dementia sufferer, was in hospital for six weeks as a result of having a fall and breaking her hip. She was placed in your home by the NHS for six weeks while her long-term future is assessed. I have nothing but the utmost praise for your wonderful staff. Friendly and helpful to the next
degree. You all deserve the utmost praise.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Myself and mum had a few teething problems at first as was all new to us and daunting, but after a few days she settled in well, says the nurses are brilliant attending to her needs as she is alert but her mobility is failing her. I can see they care for the resident's wellbeing.
She really enjoys
the food but would like 2 slices of toast instead of 1 in the mornings she does love her food, the dinners she says are spot on, very nice.


They recently had a bbq party which was fantastic, decorated throughout, Elvis impersonator was great, lovely spread of food, raffle. Thanks for great day.

My father has been here two years, in the time he has been here he has gained weight and seems much more content in his surroundings. Due to his dementia, he doesn't always recognise me when I visit but there is no doubt from his reactions that he loves and is loved by those who care for him. Excellent
communication with us from staff concerning his healthcare.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.738)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.738) out of 10 for Milton House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.738 for Milton House is calculated as follows: ( (94 Excellents x 5) + (31 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 126 Ratings = 4.738
  2. 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 Milton House 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:

    1. 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
    2. 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 28 registered maximum number of service users is 5.6, which has been reached with 11 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
