From the minute my uncle arrived, all of the staff have made not only him welcome but all of his family and friends.
I have been in many care homes, at Millcroft, and the decor, care, staff and facilities are second to none.
Millcroft is home from home with love and care.

My mother-in-law received excellent care the entire time she was at Millcroft. The staff were very caring and nothing was too much trouble. She became very fond of the staff. Right up to the end, she was treated with absolute dignity.
The staff were also very caring towards the relatives and kept us
fully informed of any changes in his treatment.

All staff at Millcroft from top to bottom are amazing. I could not single anyone out because they are all outstanding, approachable and supportive. During the two years Mum has been there, they have adapted to suit her needs (this was particularly evident following a recent stay in hospital). They are
on top of her medication, which was a relief to hand over. They do lots of extras to make her feel more at home, like changing her TV channel and finding time to chat if she is in a low mood. They're always ready to listen and happy to give updates. I feel we work together as a team to give care, love and support to my mum.

Had to bring my relative here in an emergency after numerous falls and home became quite a dangerous place to be for her. We were met with genuine kindness, understanding and support. Whilst here, my relative has thrived, she is happy, settled and very well cared for. This also helps us a s we feel
that she is in the right place. The staff are extremely professional and friendly. I would fully recommend Millcroft.

From the day that the manager visited my Nan in hospital a weight has been lifted from our hearts. Millcroft and all of it's super heroes have been amazing. We as a family felt very lost when Nan was no longer able to live in her own home. Now we have peace when we go to bed at night. We don't have
to worry, all of the staff at Millcroft are earth angels and I shall be eternally grateful to them. Thank you so much for all the care and love you show to Nan and all of us.

My dad entered Millcroft for two weeks respite care when his wife was admitted to hospital. I cannot speak highly enough about all the staff at the home. They have cared for all his needs and encouraged his independence and kept us fully informed. The building itself is welcoming, warm, airy and beautifully
decorated. I would highly recommend Millcroft.

We visited my sister today and had a lovely lunch, as much tea and coffee as we wanted. The home was clean, the staff was helpful, treated us with great care and made us feel so welcome. I never thought my sister was ready to go into a care home but she loves it, has made friends and enjoys mixing with
the staff and residents alike. Thank you for a lovely day.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I’m constantly visiting Millcroft and have got to know most of the staff, however, I’m so impressed with the attitude and dedication of the staff I absolutely know this is the best place my dad could have decided to call his home. Recently I bought a phone for my dad as he’s never used a touch screen
phone before. While he’s learning and due to Parkinson’s he’s finding it difficult, I’ve seen staff helping educate him and guide him even though it’s highly frustrating. A workplace will only ever be as good as the staff that work within the care environment. This is abundantly clear the recruitment process is good asking with how staff are treated. Thank you as this makes a huge difference to my father and his family, very much appreciate it.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.963)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.963) out of 10 for Millcroft 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 25 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 25 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 4.963 for Millcroft is calculated as follows: ( (290 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 300 Ratings = 4.963
  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 Millcroft is based on 25 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 66 registered maximum number of service users is 13.2, which has been reached with 25 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.
