From my very first visit to look around I felt a sense of calm and professionalism. The home was spotless and smelt fresh. The rooms were bright with large windows. The garden was accessible and thoughtfully planted.
My dad has now moved in, and settling in well. The staff are so friendly and welcoming
to my dad aswell as me.
It's like a hidden gem.

My mother, who suffers with dementia, has been a resident since April this year and I can honestly say I'm delighted with her care. The care and attention shown to her has been absolutely marvellous. The staff are wonderful and have helped Mum settle in so well. She especially likes the food which
is always freshly cooked and looks delicious. She also enjoys walks around the lovely gardens. I'm so pleased we found this lovely nursing home, which is tucked away, just off the A590. It's definitely a hidden gem!

I came one week ago for respite following a road accident and after a few weeks in hospital not knowing what to expect. All the staff are very friendly and help with everything I need or leave me to recover at my own pace. I met visiting hairdresser yesterday and her hairdo made me feel like a new woman.
Meals are delicious, healthy and plentiful, currently mine are served in my room. I have a wonderful view over gardens, hills and a farm and I can entertain visitors at any time. I look forward to the remainder of my visit.

Reply from Rohan Mathew, Home Manager at Hollow Oak Nursing Home

I'm so pleased our team has helped you feel supported while also giving you the space to recover at your own pace .It's lovely to hear that your visit from the hairdresser lifted your spirits-we often find that a bit of pampering can make a world of difference! I'll also pass on your compliments to our kitchen team; they'll be delighted to know you're enjoying the meals. The view from your room truly is one of our favourites, and I'm glad it's brought you comfort and enjoyment. Should there be anything more we can do to make the rest of your stay even better, please don't hesitate to let us know. Wishing you continued rest and recovery. Regards ,Home Manager

When I found that I could no longer meet my husband’s needs, I rang Hollow Oak, with a view to arranging respite care. The manager came out, and having seen the situation, arranged for my husband to become a resident that same day. He’s being very well cared for, and after four days, is showing significant
improvement in his health. I am so pleased that I made that phone call.

Reply from Rohan Mathew, Management at Hollow Oak Nursing Home

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.390)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.390) out of 10 for Hollow Oak Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.4 out of 5 from 5 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 4.964 for Hollow Oak Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (53 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 55 Ratings = 4.964

  • 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 4.426 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Hollow Oak Nursing Home is based on 5 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 = 3.5

    • 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 27 registered maximum number of service users is 5.4. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 5.4 = 0.926

  • 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.
