  • Hulton House Care Home, Preston
Operated by L&M Healthcare, Hulton House is a 74 bed home offering complex dementia and mental health care nursing.

A warm, bright and welcoming setting, residents at Hulton House receive high quality care and support from a highly trained and committed team who are dedicated to enriching the lives of both residents and their families, through kindness, engagement, communication and a passion to make a difference.

At Hulton House, they take a 'whole home' approach to creating meaningful activities for residents. All staff, no matter what their job title, are responsible for ensuring that any interaction they have with residents reflects their personal interests and preferences at all times. From the way they like to prepare for the day, their hobbies and interests, the way they like to enjoy their food, or keep in touch with relatives and friends and the way they like to prepare themselves for their night time routine. The team believe all these things should be meaningful to the resident and the way they lived their life before they moved into the home

A regular weekly programme of inclusive activities is also available and includes themed events, trips out, visits from professional musicians and entertainers, guided walks round the gardens and to the local duck pond to feed the ducks, chair-based exercise classes, arts and crafts, baking, film nights, games on the Tovers (interactive table) and a trip out on the virtual car experience. Residents are also encouraged to take advantage of the pamper suite where they can enjoy pedicures, manicures, massages, hair cutting and styling.

I find that the care my mother receives is excellent and the staff are kind and considerate to the residents and families. The rooms and residents are always clean and tidy, the staff are always willing to talk to families about anything related to the guest. Visiting at any time is always allowed.

My mum has recently moved into a Hulton House due to her deteriorating Alzheimer’s.
The staff, from reception to management and hands-on carers have all been very helpful in making this transition for mum and family as stress-free as possible. Mum is already settling into her new environment and joining
in activities and we are always made to feel welcome whenever we visit.

The staff at Hulton House Care Home have been exemplary in their care of my husband. As he is non-verbal, this can prove challenging at times but they have displayed patience and kindness in their approach to this and have built a good relationship with him. I have always found them helpful with any
queries I might have and would recommend this care home to family and friends. It has a very high standard.

I have visited a resident at Hulton House Care Home today. He was happy clean and content. The home was clean. The staff were friendly. The home has a lovely atmosphere. We were offered refreshments during the visit. I felt confident that the friend I visited today was being cared for and treated with
dignity.

Review from Geoff S (Power of Attorney of Resident) published on 25 August 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Firstly I must say what an excellent Care Home Hulton House is.
The level of care shown is without doubt first class, every visit we have been to is a very relaxed atmosphere, he is always very well presented in his appearance, and you can see that he is being very well looked after by the staff.
The
staff I have spoken to have all been very nice and attentive and available to answer any questions you might have and to add to that they all have a smile on their faces and I think that that says quite a lot.
When the staff walk past you there is always an acknowledgment.
The Home are quick to report to you if anything has happened that you need to be aware of.
There has been a lot documented about Care Homes especially with the pandemic, but through a lot of adversity and being left hanging high and dry by the Government, the people who have been keeping the residents safe from the virus and with very little protection to themselves should always be remembered for what they have done
Reply from Alison Porter, Head of Admissions & Customer Relations at Hulton House Care Home

Thank you for your lovely review and comments about our staff. The Home Manager and staff will be delighted with your comments.
Thank you also for recognising the dedication and commitment of our staff through a very difficult period.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
People say that it’s the little things that make the difference and there are no truer words for what makes Hulton House so special.
The staff have all taken the time to get to know my mum, so they know exactly what she needs at any one time. She is loved, cared for and about, encouraged to have fun,
but what is truly special is the way they do all these things. When she got up and dressed at 2 am wanting to party, the night staff put on the music and danced the night away with her. When she is sad, they get out her photograph album, make her a favourite treat - ice cream sundae or FaceTime call us so we can cheer her up. When she is agitated, they walk with her and talk to her about the things and people she loves until she is calm. Whatever she needs and whenever she needs it - she gets it in abundance.
This is family away from family - incredible!

Review from Doug M (Husband of Resident) published on 21 September 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Hulton House presents itself on the first approach as a 5/6 star hotel, and it didn't take long for our family to realise that the staff treats their residents with exactly that degree of devotion to their care. To say that the family are well satisfied with my wife's care does not adequately express
our appreciation. Going and beyond the norm is clearly a standard requirement in the job description for the staff at Hulton House, and they achieve it at a canter. This care home is, quite simply, setting the standards that should be achieved by all who provide for those who need their services.

From walking into the front door, we were made to feel extremely welcome. We knew instantly our Dad was going to be cared for, all his needs were going to be addressed and nothing was too much trouble. All the staff we met had the time for us, we never felt rushed, we got to know them really, very quickly.
I wish this home was available us earlier.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.850)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.850) out of 10 for Hulton House Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 43 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 43 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 4.850 for Hulton House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (437 Excellents x 5) + (65 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 507 Ratings = 4.85
  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 Hulton House Care Home is based on 43 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 74 registered maximum number of service users is 14.8, which has been reached with 43 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.
