This is a very good place to live. Excellent staff and facilities. Excellent medical and psychiatric services. The staff go out of their way like one of the senior carers. They support and encourage me and others to make the most of our days.

I have enjoyed and completed several college courses with help from staff and I am progressing to move into a flat with outside support. I get on with most staff within the unit. I have my own flat within the home and keep it maintained.

Review from M D (Mother of Resident) published on 1 July 2020 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been a resident in Hilton Court Care Home for several years. After a very troubled life, she has been extremely well cared for in the care home where she has been kept safe and in comfortable caring conditions. During the current pandemic, I have received a weekly telephone call, updating
me on the situation within the home and on how my daughter is coping with the lockdown restrictions. I cannot fault Hilton Court in any way, they provide a wonderful service.
Reply from Suzanne Pitt, Manager at Hilton Court Care Home

Thank you for your taking the time to give us feedback, and for your kind and positive comments about Hilton Court. This really matters to us, and is what we strive to achieve, we are delighted that your relative feels safe and we are working extremely hard in the current pandemic to maintain safety.

Review from Seana S (Sister of Resident) published on 11 June 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My younger brother has been living at Hilton Court for around ten years now, Hilton Court is his home. With no close family member living nearby, the staff of Hilton Court have become like family to him. I live in Australia and other siblings live more than three hours drive away from Rosyth, so my
brother does not have frequent family visitors and this is something we are all sad about.
My brother always seems content at Hilton Court and feels that the staff are his friends. I feel very much that they know my brother and his needs better than I do, and I am very grateful that he has such kind carers in his life.
I have found the staff at Hilton Court easy to communicate with, and professional. There have been some difficult times, when my brother has been unsettled and at times disruptive. We have been able to all pull together to have his needs met.
Last thought; I would love there to be a huge garden for my brother and the other residents to spend outdoor time in.

I have always found that the staff at Hilton Court genuinely care for the residents, they take the time to get to know each resident and therefore how to work with them. It feels like a family. I have been very reassured and relieved in how well they have managed this Coronavirus and in keeping the
residents and staff safe.

The care and support given at Hilton Court is of an exceptionally high standard and sometimes it is phenomenal, it comes from the heart. I am continually impressed by the patience, understanding and professionalism of those who work there, whatever their role. The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming
and the health and well-being of residents is the primary concern. I would certainly recommend Hilton Court to others.

I find the staff and facilities available of an extremely high standard. Staff are always available to discuss any enquiries I have. They also keep me informed of any changes to be made. They also support me if I am upset after any difficult visits. I would have no problem recommending Hilton Court

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.958)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.958) out of 10 for Hilton Court Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.958 for Hilton Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (182 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 190 Ratings = 4.958
  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 Hilton Court Care Home is based on 16 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 32 registered maximum number of service users is 6.4, which has been reached with 16 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.

Job Title: Care Home Manager

I am passionate about my job and care deeply about both the team that I work with and the residents and families who let me be a part of their lives.


I aim to provide the best care for residents at Hilton Court and we go above and beyond to ensure that they have a happy and dignified stay at our home.


I have significant experience in the nursing sector, having qualified over 18 years ago and specialised in the care of sick children, the mental health sector and elderly care. It is this extensive knowledge and skill that I bring to my role as manager at Hilton Court.


We provide an array of activities to encourage our residents to stay active and look after their physical and mental well-being. This includes our very popular tai chi and yoga classes, which encourage physical activity and mindfulness.


Our home is subdivided into smaller domestic-style units that create a warmer, more intimate living experience for our residents. The courtyard also offers a quiet and enclosed space to enjoy some relaxation.


I want to ensure residents have fulfilled lives during their time at Hilton Court; their well-being is my top priority. I aim to bring fun and laughter, as well as security to the lives of those living with us.


We endeavour to empower residents to feel confident and independent and to support individuals to reach their own personal goals and wishes.
