Following an internal audit, I was contacted by the staff to say that they had found some of Mum's belongings in a small envelope in their safe and arranged for them to be returned to me. These were important personal mementos that I had not realised were missing, so I was very grateful!
Elton Hall
looked after both Mum and Dad at the end of their lives, and the care, support and dignity they gave both during their final stages were outstanding. Both had dementia of different kinds, but the staff looked after both as individuals, ensuring that I always knew they were safe, well cared for and loved. For me, living 200 miles away, this was vital, and when I came over for my weekly or fortnightly visits, I was always made to feel welcome and brought up to speed on their care. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff, and I loved my visits, despite the travel.
I will forever be thankful for the professionalism, compassion, and love that the staff showed Mum and Dad.

I can confirm that the care and support plans were easily accessible digital system and we are very person centred.
Additionally the care and administrative staff were very supporting and professional to me and my client, I was very impressed.

First I would like to thank you for the improvement to the Hollies where my wife resides, also downstairs it's also nice to visit.

But outside the front of the building is a total disgrace. A total mess. The facade wants a facelift. Rubbish from the upgrade
strewn about in the flowerbed full of weeds. The drive is full of holes and the entrance is poor putting off potential clients. It certainly needs to be done ASAP.

I was sad that my mother had to go into a care home but there was no other alternative. However, having visited her from afar I was so reassured and delighted with the accommodation, the care, and the staff. The manager and her staff were all hugely friendly and busily tended to the residents in a genuinely
caring manner.
The accommodation is very nice, warm and spotlessly clean. The communal rooms are quite spectacular, with well-maintained and pretty gardens. The rooms are nice, well equipped, and provide individual wc and sink facilities. It was reassuring that there was a programme of daily maintenance in place.
I came away feeling much happier about my mother's circumstances as I know she is safe, has good company, and will be well looked after.

My father moved to Elton Hall for respite. The staff made very welcome and made a fuss of him. The care staff treated him with dignity and kindness at a time when he was most vulnerable. A big thank you to Elton Staff who made our family welcome. The environment could do with an upgrade as it is a little
outdated but clean.

I would like to say, on behalf of my friend who was a resident briefly at Elton Hall, a big thank you for the aftercare received.
My friend was only briefly there, over a weekend of residence, as a matter of emergency. She was then sent to hospital for further treatment.
Despite the fact the stay
had been brief, the staff were very helpful to me as a friend and interested in my friend's ongoing situation, trying to locate property and finding a means for it to be sent on. They also got involved in discussions with the hospital regarding her need for extra support and concerns about her wellbeing, all of which was not compulsory but in fact offered out of genuine concern.
Well done and thank you. It’s good to know people are not only well trained, but totally right for the job and prepared to try to help make a difference.

Reply from Liz Whalen, Registered Manager at Elton Hall

Thank you so much for you kind words. The staff at Elton Hall work very hard to meet the needs of every resident in our care.
Appreciation is always welcome. I will ensure that the team are made aware of this review.
Thank you so much.

My wife was a resident at Elton Hall for a few months, suffering from dementia, until she passed away recently. I cannot fault the care she received from all the staff, who go out of their way to make the home friendly, happy, warm and entertaining for everyone. On every visit, I was greeted with smiles,
cuddles and joy - a warm spirit everywhere. I cannot thank them enough.

Thank you for your wonderful feedback about your recent experience at Elton Hall Care Home. Our residents' well-being is our main priority, and it is great to hear that you were so pleased with the quality of our care. We will pass on your lovely comments to all the staff.

The staff and carers at Elton Hall have been magnificent during their care of my brother, who sadly left us at the end of September 2021. My brother requested that he spend the last weeks of his life in their care as opposed to entering hospital and they did everything in their power to ensure he received
the very best of care during this difficult time. He called Elton Hall 'home', and he loved his last eleven years there, amongst his friends and the management and staff. I would have no hesitation in recommending Elton Hall as a place to find peace and comfort in one's latter years.

Reply from Liz Whalen, Registered Manager at Elton Hall

Hi Richard, thank you for your kind comments. I am the new Manager at Elton Hall, sadly, I didn't get to meet your brother, but I will make sure that the Team at Elton are made aware of this. I am very proud to lead and be a part of such a dedicated excellent team of people who genuinely care about the residents at Elton Hall. Kind regards.

It's a very cheerful home to be a resident in. As the carers end-over backwards to help you in a polite respectful way. The sandwiches, cakes and dinners have been excellent lately and such a good variety. My life changed for the best and it's the safest I have ever felt in Elton Hall! To everyone who's

With the remarks I crossed in this review, I speak as I find as first impressions mean a lot to me. On entering Elton Hall, members of staff introduced themselves to me. As it was near tea time, I was escorted to the dining room. There was a selection of hot or cold food, every day. After tea I was
shown my ensuite bedroom. The facilities were first class. After unpacking I was shown the bath and shower rooms. On my first full day the entertainment staff introduced themselves. Any problem you have, the management solve it. Staff are first class.

My father has complex health needs and when he was very unwell in October, the care he received by the staff was second-to-none. I could not have been more reassured he was in good, concerned and caring hands and it is a tribute to the staff's care and attitude towards him that he pulled through his
most recent health scare.

Current Review Score: 9.1 (9.084)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.1 (9.084) out of 10 for Elton Hall is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.4 out of 5 from 8 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 4.713 for Elton Hall is calculated as follows: ( (82 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 108 Ratings = 4.713

  • 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 4.371 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Elton Hall is based on 8 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 = 3.8

    • 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 70 registered maximum number of service users is 14. 8 Positive Reviews ÷ 14 = 0.571

  • 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.
