Review from Cate G (Daughter of Resident) published on 15 February 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our Dad has vascular dementia and was in a care home over an hour away from us, which made visiting difficult. We decided to explore options closer to home and visited many of those in and around Brentwood. On visiting Hutton View Care Home we were blown away by all aspects of facilities available and
the high standard of care provided. The customer liaison manager, the deputy manager and the dementia care manager have all listened to our needs for Dad to the finest detail and have been empathic and supportive in the difficult decisions we were making. The attention to detail in enabling us to make the move as smooth as possible, with minimal distress for Dad, was so important and the welcome he received was fantastic. He has been at the home a week and he is a different person. The staff are so very friendly and kind, they are supportive and accommodating, they make a lovely cup of tea and are always ready with a cake to go with it! We just wish we had made the move sooner!

Staff have been fantastic since the first call. As a family, we have been through horrific trauma and a staff member supported me incredibly well. I wouldn't have coped without her! This is not a normal care home, it's like a hotel, but the people are what makes it. I slept on Friday night for the first
time in two weeks! Thank you Hutton View Care Home and thank you that staff member.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Hutton View Care Home is a welcoming friendly and very professional home that makes the happiness and health of their residents their primary concern.
I have supported a resident at the home from prior to her going into Hutton View and I have continued to assist her with medical appointments and visit
her as a companion. My client has been at Hutton View since July 2021. I have always found the staff to be helpful, communicate well and feel like we always work well together for the best of the client. Although her needs are demanding the staff try at all times to keep her happy and engaged going out of their way to ensure that she is happy and safe. She truly couldn't be in safer hands.

Excellent friendly care home, beautifully furnished with welcoming caring staff.
In early 2022 the assisted living home next door will open and with it the grounds between the two buildings will open and with it the grounds between the buildings giving a spacious outside feel including a fish pond
for residents to enjoy. I can't wait to see it!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Hutton View Care Home has changed my views towards care homes. The home has exceeded my expectations and Mum is extremely happy to be there. The building yes is new, but the true picture is what Hutton View staff do. They are very professional friendly caring sympathetic and I feel my Mum is in the
best hands which is a tremendous relief knowing Mum is cared for 24/7 and I cannot recommend Hutton View enough.
Whilst every member of staff I have encountered have been truly professional I would like to personally say thank you to the people who have help me and mum to adjust to the placement with the smoothest of transitions.

I have been very impressed with Hutton View since my initial enquiry. The teamwork tirelessly to meet the individual needs of my mother and I am so grateful for their patience and assistance in what is a challenging time for any family. I feel confident in their care and understanding of her, and the
facilities are nothing short of a 5-star hotel. Would thoroughly recommend to others.

Review from Roger L (Cousin of Resident) published on 24 May 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I can confirm that the overall standards at Hutton View have remained very high.
The concerns my cousin had raised before about food have now been addressed. We have eaten there ourselves on two occasions and been delighted with the lunches provided. The hospitality service manager and his colleagues
looked after us very well.
The visits were subject to Covid risk assessment, which the management organised for us, and it was good to be able to spend more time with our cousin, as we live a long way away.

We can’t thank the Customer Relationship Manager and the team enough for their help and support in the run up to Dad moving into Hutton View and the standard of care and support he had received since settling in a few weeks ago. After what’s been a stressful and uncertain year for everyone, knowing
he is safe, happy and very well cared for in the wonderful environment of Hutton View means the world to all the family. Thank you!

Arriving as a Nonagenarian I was given a friendly welcome and have good liaison with all the staff, many of whom are from Asian or European countries. There are attractive daily programmes on offer each week and chances to walk outside for exercise and other activities in warmer weather. The menus contain
good variety and good ingredients but unfortunately, some main meals are spoiled by lack of catering knowledge for OAP's especially with vegetables.
Reply from Carl Roberts, Customer Relationship Manager at Hallmark Hutton View

Thank you for taking the time to review your stay after being with us for the last month. We are pleased to hear you feel the team are friendly and are enjoying the activity program. We also look forward to working with you at the resident's food forums to make sure we are getting the vegetables just the way you like it. Thank you again and it is an honour that you have chosen Hutton View as your home.

Review from Clare M (Daughter of Resident) published on 8 December 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father has been a resident for 2 weeks now and I honestly cannot recommend the home highly enough. I had agonized for some time over whether to organise full-time carers in his own home or to look at a residential care home and I'm so happy that I opted for Hutton View. The building itself is beautifully
appointed throughout, more reminiscent of a luxury hotel than a care home, but most importantly to me is the quality of care and support he receives from every staff member. He can't stop telling me how much he likes it there (or how good the food is!) and his newly relaxed demeanour is a testament to that.
The support extends to family members too, from your very first point of contact which makes a difficult transition so much easier to cope with. Hat's off to Hallmark too for setting up visitor suites in all of their homes so that families are still able to safely visit their loved ones during the pandemic.

My elderly aunt was only admitted to Hutton View Care Home yesterday, so it is too early to provide a meaningful review and the reason for the ‘don’t know’ in the following options. However, having said that, the support we have experienced from the management team, in dealing with the logistics of
the move, has been second to none. The home and facilities are amazing, and my aunt is already settling in well, with the care team providing exemplary support during this difficult transition period for both her and for my wife and me.

The customer relationship manager has been amazing in arranging the transition from my friend's last care home into Hutton View. He has kept me informed of all developments and ensured the move into Hutton View went smoothly, causing my friend as little disturbance as possible. Above all, the customer
relationship manager took an exceptional amount of time and trouble to ensure my friend's needs were met before he arrived. The service from the whole team has been second to none, and I know Hutton View has created a beautiful, safe and caring environment for my friend to live in. Knowing how isolated he felt before he moved into residential care, I'm incredibly happy for him.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The journey to seeking a suitable care home for a loved one is a challenge for any family, especially when added to pre-existing concerns about their health and wellbeing. However, Hutton View (Hallmark Care Homes) gave us fantastic support and comfort throughout. We received such personal service from
all of the staff at every encounter. Despite the challenging times, amidst a pandemic, our mother's move into Hutton View was managed with such professionalism and a week after her transition, we are already hearing and seeing (via photo and video) the wonderful benefits of the care she is receiving. Clifton Court, Dementia Community is now our mother's home, it provides everything she needs in a warm, friendly, beautifully and cleverly designed environment. I would wholeheartedly recommend Hallmark Care Homes and as a family, we are immediately feeling confident about our decision. Thank you to everyone from the bottom of our hearts.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.881)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.881) out of 10 for Hallmark Hutton View 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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 15 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 4.966 for Hallmark Hutton View is calculated as follows: ( (172 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 178 Ratings = 4.966
  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 4.915 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Hallmark Hutton View is based on 15 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 82 registered maximum number of service users is 16.4. 15 Positive Reviews ÷ 16.4 = 0.915
  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.
