After suffering a stroke, my father was afraid to go home. He wanted to go to Hill House because he knew he would be safe and well cared for there. His late wife, my mother, received excellent care during the last years of her life at Hill House, and he quality of life was greatly improved. Once
again, Hill House provided excellent care for my father. My family and I are extremely grateful. Hill House feels like home away from home, and the staff feel like an extended family. They are kind, caring, and welcoming. Thanks to all at Hill House for the amazing work that you do!

My experience of Hill House Nursing Home was a very pleasant one. Very clean and tidy and well cared for residents. Staff all very nice and cheerful. Seems to me to be a very well-run nursing home, giving the older people a well cared for and pleasant life in their old age.

I came to visit my nan - Shirley. Her personal care was done with dignity, immaculately clean and dressed. Julie made us welcome, her and Holly very professional and make the residents feel special and truly loved. Lovely to see the memory books, special touches with decor (autumnal/Halloween), soft
furnishings. Drinks/snacks plentiful & offered regularly. Daily activities/entertainment to a very high standard. Extremely clean throughout communal areas & Nan's bedroom. Safety is second to non - very important with residents. Beautiful outside area/enclosed for security. Our minds are at ease knowing Nan is well looked after. Thank you all.

Would just like to say thanks to all the staff for their support and the care they give to my father. The home is clean and well maintained and there is every effort made to make it a home from home.
The staff are always very welcoming and any enquiries or problems are dealt with promptly.
I
gave been kept informed of my father's health regularly.
Many thanks.

Excellent.

I have found the care staff and management brilliant over the past 4 months.
My mum arrived for a rest and decided to stay permanent. The care is good and nothing is too much trouble. Just sometimes looks under staffed.

My mother has settled very well at Hill House after her reluctance to go into care, she is now very happy. The staff are very efficient and attentive to look after her needs. We always feel welcomed by staff and there is a family atmosphere to help us feel at home. We have no worries and are very
grateful. Thank you.

My mother has been a resident at Hill House for over a year and recently passed away. She has received such wonderful care from the staff at Hill House and they made her final months with us so much more comfortable for her. I have been so impressed by all the stimulating social experiences like the
musicians and pets. The staff have been so caring and welcoming.

My father spent 5-6 weeks here and would definitely not recommend this home to any loved ones or friends. Always understaffed, management is awful! The actual care team (nurses, carer assistants) are lovely people, they just can't manage the workload. The rooms are adequate and the food is okay, but
that's the only real positive thing I can say. More of a business than an actual "care" home in our opinion so definitely avoid if you can.
11 October 2024
The moment I was received, the welcoming was very warm. I settled immediately into my room. Ample room and lovely window view. The staff were outstanding and nothing was too much for me to ask. Everything, and I mean everything was done with great alacrity and sincerity. The food was "fantastic"
home-cooked, and the care put into the daily bakes "wow", superb food. All in all, I would like to give a big thank you to all of the team. Keep it up.
02 October 2024
The staff are wonderful, friendly, caring, and supportive. They work very hard although I feel they could do with more staff, sometimes they are all so rushed!
The food is very good, well cooked but served cold at times.
Overall I would recommend this home to friends and family.
I spend at least
4 hours every day to help feed my husband and do his personal care (shaving, cleaning nails and teeth).

My husband has been a resident in Hill House Nursing Home for just over two years. My family and I are completely satisfied with the care he has been (an still is) receiving. All the staff are lovely and the home is always clean and well-run. As visitors, we always feel welcome and I truly believe
he could not be better off anywhere else.
30 September 2024
My husband is cared for with dignity and respect. The staff are caring and supportive of us both. The manager is readily available and visible on the floor and never makes you feel she is too busy to listen. There are dedicated entertainment staff and activities and entertainment is provided almost
daily. The staff of all grades work together as a team to create a professional but warm, friendly atmosphere. Any small problem is dealt with timely and respectfully. Open visiting makes me feel welcome. I knew immediately that Hill House was the best place to help us both adjust to the difficult decision of my husband going into care.
30 September 2024
A very caring home. The staff are very attentive to their residents and needs and nothing seems too much trouble for them. Activities are organised and seemed to be enjoyed. Certain events of the year are always recognised and seem well received by all. A lovely home with a pleasant outlook, well
organised, always clean and tidy.

Recently my dad has been very poorly and unable to eat or drink anything. The dedication the team showed him has been amazing. They were quick to respond to his difficulties and contacted all relevant parties. He is now sat up and bright! Really can't thank everyone enough for the devotion and care
they have given him. They have really shown that it is not just a job and they really do care. Thank you.
29 April 2024
Everyone at Hill House has been excellent in care and support and would recommend it if asked.

I am not a religious person but if you believe in angels, they are working at Hill House. Every single member of staff deserves praise and endless thanks. They are all very special people to deliver care with love, empathy and unbelievable kindness. Everyone is treated with dignity and respect,
despite of challenging circumstances. For the first time, I had piece of mind that my beloved mum would be cared for as I had cared for her. Thank you from my heart.
26 July 2023
Outstanding is the level of professionalism at Hill House.
Exceptional are all of the staff, nursing, domestic, catering, activities and entertainment, maintenance and of course the management. (Hope I have not forgotten anyone)
My experience is from March through to July, thus far. I have had
previous experience of long-term residence, for both of my parents at Hill House and without any doubt, knew where my loved one would be cared for and taken care of when I was no longer capable of doing so.
I applaud you all and thank you sincerely. Anyone reading this and undecided about where to look for a placement for their loved one, need look no further.

My aunt is at Hill House for palliative care. She is 96 and on end-of-life care. The staff are very friendly and attentive, and she is very well looked after.
28 February 2023
I have been in the nursing home daily since my wife arrived. The staff have been cooperative at all times considering the number of dementia patients and the pressure of work they have I found all of them very good. Caring for someone with this condition is not easy, as I well know. Thank you.
PS:
We all liked the live music.
