Hilltop Lodge is a great care home. The staff are great they understand every residents needs including my grandmother. They go above and beyond for my grandmother she could not be happier than she is here. The care home is 10/10 clean & friendly. They engage well with all residents and I genuinely
think they are all angels. They also engage well with family members as for everyone who ends up in here through unfortunate times. All I can say is keep up the good work and me and my family thank all the staff for the work they do.

The care shown to my father in my opinion has been exemplary. The senior staff team and all of their team/colleagues have liaised with our family expertly and professionally throughout. Dad is now a permanent resident at Hill Top Lodge and we feel fortunate to have a place here for him. Thank you to
all of the staff we have had contact with making this difficult decision to place dad's care in someone else's hands, such a positive experience.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Throughout the six months of moms care, she was treated with dignity and respect, from management, nurses, care staff, cleaners, and even the receptionists. The care mom had at Hilltop Lodge was second to none. All staff went above and beyond in their duties to look after mom. Courteous and polite with
family members too. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Would highly recommend Hilltop Lodge.

Thank you for the care, love and support that you gave my Mom in the time she spent with you, my heart could burst. You gave Mom so much love, care, and dignity and loved her like family from management, reception, nurses and carers. Mom spent a little time in a few homes before she came here. Nothing
and I mean nothing comes close to Hill Top Lodge, be proud you are the best!

I will be forever grateful for everything you did for my grandad during the time he was at Hilltop Lodge. Four members of staff in particular and all the carers thank you from the bottom of my heart. I won't ever forget you for what you did for my grandad from football to National Pear Day to looking
after him.
Thank you, lots of love from me and family.

Thank you so much for the care and patience you have. Mum came to Hilltop, with us knowing her stay was not going to be very long. But, the end-of-life care was absolutely first class. Her last day, so much care and respect was shown to her, that it made the day so much easier to cope with. Thank you.

My aunt has received very professional care with dignity and friendship which extended to myself and her brother. All staff from management to reception to nursing staff have conducted themselves very well. I would be happy to receive similar care myself should the need arise.

Overall Experience 2.0 out of 5
When dad first moved to the home, the staff were great. The manager came to see him and said "If there's anything you need or have concerns, tell staff to ask for me. You don't need to worry!" Famous last words! Dad was taken to hospital, Hill Top Lodge now says can't take him back because of his outbursts!
Dad has always been an independent man, being stuck in a wheelchair with dementia, upsets him. He doesn't want to be in a care home but has no choice as he's not safe enough at home. The Manager has refused Dad's return. I think this is appalling! Do they not know that dementia patients can show signs of anger etc? I don't think it's fair to add more stress to dad and our family, not knowing where he will go next, stuck in hospital. No wonder the NHS is on its knees, my dad is now occupying a bed when beds are needed. Hill Top should work with the NHS, not against them. The nursing staff are friendly, just need more dementia care training!
Reply from Abdul Ali, Manager at Hilltop Lodge

I am truly very sorry for this tremendous misunderstanding and the stress it must have caused you and your family. We were informed by the hospital that your father is not fit for discharge and that is the only reason he has not returned to us. We loved caring for him and would welcome him back once the hospital has confirmed he is able to return. We would be more than happy to talk with you regarding the options and how we can facilitate his return. Please do feel free to contact us to discuss further.

Our mother was treated wonderfully at Hilltop Lodge. All staff on Willow Floor treated her with love and affection and went above and beyond at all times. Our family were treated as part of their family.

My Mom has been in a few homes, but I must say this is by far the best. It's like family here, we all talk to each other so friendly. Anything you're not sure of they help, best they can do. The staff are so helpful. Activities are very good, always something going on. I would not like my Mom to be
anywhere, only here. Myself and my mom's granddaughter are well pleased, thank you all.

First-class care for Mom and also me. Nothing is too much trouble. Mom always says "They look after me so well." I couldn't wish for more. I know Mom is so well cared for and that gives me peace of mind. All the staff are approachable and you can tell it's more than a job - they care. I wouldn't hesitate
to recommend Hilltop to your loved ones. A huge thank you.

Myself and my family have never had any issues with the care home since my gran arrived. The staff are all very friendly, helpful, and attentive to the residents. Whenever we have needed assistance they have always been willing to help.
The home is always clean and we always see cleaning being done,
even while visitors are there. The range of activities for the residents is great, there is plenty of variety. My gran always looks happy when she participates and has settled in very well.

I am delighted with the service provided by the manager and his team. They are caring, attentive, and patient under difficult circumstances. The team tries to provide a "home from home" feeling and also provide entertainment when they can, indeed they are using a ring and ride to take residents to a
farm on the 3.6.24 which I am sure my Father and stepmom will enjoy. Long may the excellent care continue for many years.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.786)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.786) out of 10 for Hilltop Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 29 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 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 4.786 for Hilltop Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (315 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (7 Poors x 2) + (8 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 346 Ratings = 4.786
  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 Hilltop Lodge is based on 27 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 85 registered maximum number of service users is 17, which has been reached with 27 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.
