Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Ruby and all staff at Holly Bank Nursing Home are very special people, Residents are treated like family members and are looked after in a friendly but professional manner, they are very well cared for and nothing is too much trouble for the staff, the respect that they show the residents in both caring
and looking after them is so obvious, my Dad was there for just over three weeks in August with end of life Alzheimers and i watched the respect, care and dignity they showed him and also myself, even when he passed away they done everything, if you are looking for a nursing home for a loved one have no hesitation in choosing this very special nursing home, i had no concerns with this place only peace of mind.

Excellent care and attention provided by all members of staff. They are cheerful, helpful, and friendly and keep me informed of any issues arising, any appointments that my father attends, and anything that he requires from me or my family. Food is very good and every effort is made to assist with feeding
and drinking if required. Regular activities are arranged and family are encouraged and invited to attend. I have no hesitation in recommending Holly Bank Nursing Home.

My grandma has been at Holly Bank Nursing Home for a couple of months and I have nothing but good words to say about the place as a whole. The staff are welcoming upon every visit, they have made my grandma feel at home very quickly. Every member of staff is very friendly and everyone feels like a family,

Mum moved into Holly Bank in March having spent several months in and out of hospital. The improvement in mum's general awareness and appetite has been amazing, and this is all down to the excellent care she has received from all the staff there. The food is fresh and home-cooked, and they regularly
put on group activities for the residents, which Mum has enjoyed. Mum’s room is bright and homely, and everywhere is always very clean. The communication the family has received from the management and staff has been very good, they are always available to speak to and provide regular updates. I cannot speak highly enough about the way Mum has been looked after since she arrived.

My uncle has been here for a while now and has really come out of his shell, he’s started to interact with others and feels more comfortable being away from his own home. The care given is outstanding and have our minds at ease as we live a fair distance away, he’s always very well looked after and

Would highly recommend this home.

My Mum has been a resident at Holly Bank since May 2023. My mother has dementia and is bed-bound. I find the staff to be very kind, thoughtful and caring, treating her with dignity and respect. They go the extra mile to make Mum as comfortable and content as she can be. I have found things quite hard
coming to terms with my mum's dementia and the staff and management have been amazing with me and I am so very grateful for this. Any issues arising are quickly brought to my attention and strategies are put in place to resolve matters. Mum has a lovely room which is light and airy and kept very clean. I am so pleased that I found Holly Bank and would have no hesitation recommending this excellent nursing home.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.905)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.905) out of 10 for Holly Bank Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 26 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 4.905 for Holly Bank Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (279 Excellents x 5) + (25 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 306 Ratings = 4.905
  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 Holly Bank Nursing Home is based on 26 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 12 registered maximum number of service users is 2.4, which has been reached with 26 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.
