The care home's sensory garden is ideal for residents with dementia and the communal spaces are great for socialising.

Latest Care Quality Commission* Report on Copper Hill Care Home: click here
* Care Quality Commission is responsible for the registration and inspection of social care services in England.
The Review Score of 8.9 (maximum of 10) for Copper Hill Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 15 Reviews over all time. This Average Rating is also the rating value for Copper Hill Care Home in Google's Search Results - more info
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.4 out of 5 from 13 positive Reviews in the last 12 months.
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating of all Reviews over all time. For each review the Care Home / service is rated Excellent, Good, Satisfactory, Poor or Very Poor on a number of areas eg Staff, Management etc. The Care Home receives points for each rating as follows: Excellent = 5. Good = 4. Satisfactory = 3. Poor = 2. Very Poor = 1. These points are added up and then divided by the total number of completed ratings to generate the average rating.
The Average Rating of 4.556 for Copper Hill Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (109 Excellents x 5) + (63 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 180 Ratings = 4.556
b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 12 months. If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with 'Extremely Likely' or 'Likely' in answer to the question 'How likely are you to recommend this Care Home to friends and family if they needed similar care or treatment?'
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
4 points are available for the first 5 Positive Reviews, 3 points for the first Positive Review and then 0.25 Points for each of the next 4 Positive Reviews.
1 point is available for reaching a target number of Positive Reviews based on 20% of the number of registered maximum number of service users. If the target is partially reached then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home with 50 registered maximum number of service users has a target of 10 Positive Reviews, if it has 10 or more Positive Reviews it will receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews will receive 0.7 points.
If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. The calculation is the same as above, except the points are divided by 2.
The 4.361 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Copper Hill Care Home is based on 13 positive Reviews in the last 12 months and is calculated as follows:
3 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 4
Target of 36 positive Reviews (180 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 13 Reviews ÷ 36 Target = 0.361
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
Copper Hill Care Home has a Review Score of 8.9 (8.917) from 15 Reviews

My mum has been in Copper Hill Care Home for approximately two years now, currently in Copley House unit and we couldn't be happier with her care.
The staff are friendly and helpful and are always happy to answer any queries you may have.
The unit is well run and the rooms are kept extremely clean, the staff are mindful of residents dignity and the food is plentiful.

My husband is a resident in Stokesly House Unit. He is well looked after, all the staff are fantastic. I could not have got a better place anywhere for my husband. I can not thank the staff enough for all they do.

Overall, in my opinion in most areas, the home is good. Communication between staff and relatives is very good.
I am very unhappy that I am unable to gain access without having to wait for a member of staff to let me in - After some years, surely I should be trusted with the code.

Thank you for taking the time to review Copper Hill. We take the safety and security of our Residents seriously and would like to reassure you that the codes are not given out for this reason. We are sorry if you find that this is a problem and will take your views on board.
Review submitted from a Postal Card by M S (Son of Resident) on Thursday 1 March 2018.
The staff and nurses are kind and thoughtful, the residents are well looked after and cared for. There does seem to be a turn around in staff often making it difficult to get to know people, but overall, a welcoming and friendly home.

This is the most challenging job which the carers do with a lot of patience and love to their credit. I've witnessed this weekly for a year now. This gives me comfort and relief.
Thank you!

To all the staff on Redwood thank you for all the love and time you had for my mother. She liked to have a laugh and a sing along with some of you and loved being pushed around with Belle on her knee waving like royalty to everyone, (Mum not Belle).
Love from us both.

I never wanted my mum in care but it was the best decision for her needs. In two years, she has not been ill or had any accidents and is very settled and happy.
Staff are amazing and make it home for the residents and always welcoming. Had a fantastic afternoon for my mum's 80th in December it is just right for my mum here.

The whole family feel reassured that dad is receiving consistently good, kind and professional care at Copper Hill. There is great understanding and empathy (and good humour!) from the care staff. There are lots of activities to keep dad active and engaged - and all medical needs are responded to quickly and efficiently. We value being able to visit or phone at any time.

My 91-year-old mother, who has dementia, has been cared for in Copley House, Copper hill, for over two and a half years and has received first class care throughout. The staff show incredible dedication to providing the best possible environment for all the residents and rise to whatever challenge they face with great resourcefulness. The dementia care they provide is as good as it gets, and I feel very fortunate that my mother has such a good care home.

I would have put 'very good' had there been a box. Excellent is too strong a word. I have had to put 'good'.

We are updated on all circumstances related to the care of my aunt. We find this especially useful as we are so far away.
Staff are always friendly and helpful and will take my aunt out on occasions to shop or for a coffee.

My father has been a resident of Copper Hill Care Home (Murray House Dementia Unit) since early 2016 and despite the ongoing difficulties faced by his family, we are all of the opinion that he is well cared for at Copper Hill Care Hoem and couldn't be better placed.
