My mother has been in the care home for 3 years and during that time has improved significantly due to the care and attention of the staff who are excellent. She is comfortable, well fed and stimulated by numerous weekly activities. I cannot speak highly enough of Hill Brow and all its staff. The owners are hands-on and the staff are dedicated and caring towards residents. I feel my mother is very fortunate to be there.
Thank you for your kind words. All of the team at Hill Brow enjoy caring for your Mother and were pleased she is comfortable and happy at Hill Brow.

My grandmother felt very "at home" and well cared for here. She loved the social aspects and the warm friendly environment. I was always impressed with the lovely staff who are clearly very dedicated. The home was always super clean. I would definitely recommend this home and plan to send my father there one day. (He has already said he would like to end up there!)
Thank you very much for your kind review. We are always striving to make sure all of our residents feel at home. We so pleased your grandmother has.

My grandmother was in Hill Brow. She had moved from her home unable to walk very well, very lonely and generally, I thought she was going to die so needed to find a home for her. Hill Brow was recommended to me and she moved in. I thought she would only be there weeks, years later she was still there. They were amazing, they assessed her and gave care totally in tune with her history and made a shadow of her old self back to the social lady she previously was. They found out what she liked and built a plan on it. She is a changed lady. Thank you.
Thank you for your kind review. It has been a pleasure to care for your Grandmother.

It was an extremely difficult decision to have to put my mother into a care home but since coming to Hill Brow, the improvement in her has been so noticeable and I now look forward to visiting her. My mother is now so content in her environment that the deterioration in her memory has slowed down and I am sure that her quality and length of life has been extended.
Thank you for your kind words. It is a pleasure to care for your Mum and we are so pleased she is happy.
My step mum needed more care than we could provide at home due to wondering at night. Hill Brow provide everything we needed caringly and safely we were very happy with the Hill Brow family.

My mother-in-law has been resident here for over 18 months. She was welcomed and settled in. Recently the home manager has changed and I would like to congratulate them on the smooth change over. It has been seamless and the excellent care continues.

We are very happy with the facilities, staff and standard of care at Hill Brow. The staff are always cheerful, polite, friendly and happy to help. The management is exceptional and I am impressed with how they keep me informed of how mum is doing, and notify me immediately if there are any concerns. We have noticed an improvement in Mum's mood; she is cheerful and smiling when we visit, and enjoys all the activities on offer every day. Hill Brow is warm and welcoming and it feels more like a family home than a residential home.
Hill House and Hill Brow both treated our mother with care, love and dignity, and made her final days as comfortable as possible.
I would definitely recommend them to prospective families.

Of all my experiences of other peoples relatives in care homes, Hill Brow clearly is head and shoulder above the rest. The genuine dedication and personal care go above and beyond. This is truly a very caring company who needs that extra love and attention.

She is clean comfortable and the food is great. She loves the staff. The staff are consistent, friendly and professional at all times. We would recommend them. When our Dad was dying they made every attempt to accommodate him too.

Hill Brow has been looking after my mother for over a year and I have found the whole experience very satisfactory. Hill Brow staff are always friendly and ready to help and have helped my mother through her age issues. Caring few people in a care home is a very responsible and demanding job and I have found the staff to be always helpful with my mother and other residents care in the most difficult situations - well done.

My mother has been a resident at Hill Brow for the last 13 and a half years, at first leading a relatively independent life, but now on a full nursing basis (which is why I am completing this form). Throughout her time at Hill Brow, she has been well looked after, especially now when she is very dependent. The staff are caring and efficient and the home is clean and well maintained. Visitors are welcomed and there is a nice atmosphere. There seem to be efficient links with the local medical and nursing services which my mother needs increasingly. Overall, I am very satisfied. I go into a lot of similar homes to entertain residents and Hill Brow compares very well.

I am Alison and the proud Proprietor of Woodlands & Hill Brow Ltd. I am a nurse holding a Degree in Nursing with a Diploma in Elderly Care. I left the NHS where I was Ward Manager of an elderly care unit at The Royal Free Hospital, to assumed control of Woodlands & Hill Brow following my mother's retirement in 1998. I am immensely proud of what we have achieved in our homes, providing the highest standards of care which are built on an ethos of family-centred care. I am also a teacher and assessor ensuring I can support our staff through their development and training.

I joined the company in 2014 with a level 5 Qualification in Health and Social Care. I am proud to work in a really special place with such lovely people - residents and staff and I are especially proud we achieved a rating of Outstanding by CQC in 2018.
My passion is caring for the elderly. I believe everyone should receive compassion and outstanding care in their later years and that this can be achieved with well-trained and good staff working in partnership with our residents and their families and other Health Care Specialists and Professionals.

My name is Rejoice, I have worked at Hill Brow for over 10 years. I started as a carer, then became a senior carer and now deputy manager working alongside our lovely manager Bev.

My role is incredibly rewarding. I am part of a massive life-changing decision that is incredibly personal and needs to be made with confidence. I think of myself as a guide for families and individuals during this new chapter of their life.
I help support them with any questions and concerns but what I love most is every day I get to meet new people, hear their life stories and build great relationships with them and their families. Once they have moved in it is a joy to watch our residents thrive and enjoy life, and loved ones too.

I have worked in the health and social care sector for the last 13 years. Every role has been in and around training and development. Being able to develop our staff to deliver even greater care and service to our residents is something I take great pride in. Woodlands & Hill Brow is a family-run business, and this is one of the main reasons I wanted to move here, away from more corporate roles.

I'm Lynn, and I work as a Chef at Hill Brow. I absolutely love being part of such a caring company that values and supports its employees. The management team is incredibly supportive and always prioritizes the well-being of the residents and staff.
One of the best parts of my job is preparing meals for the residents at Hill Brow. I make sure to have individual conversations with each resident to learn about their favourite foods and preferred drinks. It's important to me that they are happy, so I strive to provide them with wholesome, delicious, and nutritious meals that they truly enjoy.

I love my job as an activities coordinator. The most important part of my day to me is spending quality time with the residents whether in a group activity or chatting on a one to one basis. I particularly enjoy the art and craft activities. When I first started the Wednesday afternoon Art Club I could only persuade a few of the residents to join in, now I have residents and their family join in!
A regular Friday afternoon activity which I introduced soon after I started in this role is Word Association. I always get full attendance for this as the associations can be very unpredictable and humorous.
Story writing is another popular activity. I usually try to tie the theme into a current event or choose a popular childhood memory to develop into a story, however by far the most popular theme is a murder mystery. All of the residents have an opportunity to add a suggestion which is included in the story. The stories are a great way to bring out their sense of humour and it never fails to surprise me how inventive they can be.
I have also introduced food and cooking activities where I have helped the residents pipe onto cakes and biscuits with chocolate or icing and they get to eat their own creations! I use my love of art, cake decorating and watercolour painting to develop new projects and my latest creation is a giant bingo game which can also be used for quiz questions. We always look forward to our weekly outings and also the musicians that come to perform.
It’s a real privilege to be able to spend so much time with our residents. I feel very much appreciated by our residents and enjoy being part of the team at Hill Brow.
