What our families say: Hilton Park Care Home

"A very kind and positive reception that was continued throughout my stay. The staff were all excellent and the management very helpful. Nothing was too much trouble and I would recommend it to my friends. Thank you."

"I cannot praise Hilton Park highly enough for the care and support they showed my brother from the day he arrived to the day he left. He was only a resident for less than a month, but in that time he fulfilled his desire to enjoy the company of others, embrace the nature he loved and find peace. The dedication and attentiveness of the carers and activities team were amazing. I was so impressed with the support and speed with which the staff enabled my brother to settle into his room and make it a pleasant, personal environment, arranging the transport of furniture, putting up pictures etc. My brother embraced all the activities offered, including fitness, singing and visits from outside entertainers including a company of miniature goats! He loved the garden and enjoyed the fresh air and the beautiful flowers. The staff took photos of my brother enjoying the variety of activities which they kindly sent me, photos I will now treasure forever. Hilton Park is a very special place."

"I found the care not of the standard I was assured. He was bed-bound and daily other patients with dementia were walking into his room taking his belongings causing him distress. My father was only in the home a short while from which a number of his clothing items have disappeared. When he left the home they sent him with none of his belongings, not even his false teeth. When the family phoned to establish whereabouts of his belongings and ask for them to be packed for collection we had great difficulty in getting the staff to understand due to poor understanding of the English language. I find it very sad that when the elderly are in care with poor hearing and memory loss that they are not able to clearly communicate with their carers."

"My dad has been staying in Queens at Hilton Park for the last month. I am extremely thankful to everyone who has been involved with the care for Dad whilst he has been there. I would like to add a special mention to the admin team who have always been very helpful and give that little bit extra to ease the worry of a relative being away from home. Thank you all, you are all stars."

"I cannot thank you all enough for the excellent care you gave my aunt. You went above and beyond. Your staff loved her and she loved them. I know in the last year it got even more difficult but at no time did I feel concerned. Your communication knowing that you would tell me anything or ask my permission for something was wonderful. On behalf of my uncle and her daughter Thank you"

"When a care home is run by a manager who really cares, the whole atmosphere of the time is different. Hilton Pak provides care based on individual needs, and residents are treated with respect and dignity. Unlike other homes, Hilton Park treats the family with friendliness and are always willing to help in any way they can."

"Hilton Park is an excellent, caring care home which has endeavoured to meet residents' requirements in these difficult covid times. The special, re-designed room with large window divider and speakerphone is wonderful. It means I can visit my mother and can remove my mask, very helpful as she has dementia, is partially deaf and blind in one eye. She can see my facial expressions and lip-read when necessary. Staff encourage Mum to engage in activities, the food is excellent and today Mum told me "the staff are so kind and lovely"."

"Staff are caring and helpful, Over the past month, the food has improved enormously, quality, variety and presentation. Though my mother likes fruit in her desserts. The visiting pod is very good, though we have experienced problems with the intercom and this week it was not working on the resident's side which made for a rather frustrating meeting. It needs checking regularly, please."

"A massive thank you to all the staff that gave such loving care and attention to my Mum until she passed away very peacefully at Barchester Hilton Park Care Home. The staff here looked after Mum with the best you could ever want and I do not believe she could have been in a better place. Thank you also for looking after me during my visits during this tough time in the world."

"On my final release from hospital I was admitted to Hilton Park Care Home. Not knowing what to expect I am pleasantly surprised by the care and attention I received. This has developed in its intensity since. Unfortunately, the Covid epidemic has rather disrupted the general swing of things but I am still grateful for the care administered."

"My sister receives a high quality of care and kindness from the staff in her unit. Whenever I visited her I always found her to be well presented, well-fed, and warm. The staff always received me well and kept me clearly informed about any issues that my sister may have had. Her 'pocket money' was always managed accurately."

"All staff on Queens Unit, Hilton Park have been caring for my mother since October 2019 with the greatest care, friendliness and respect. Mum often tells me how kind everyone is and that the “food is excellent”. Mum suffers from dementia; as well as arthritis and hearing issues, but all staff (including maintenance, cleaners, laundry staff, as well as nurses and carers) are patient and considerate at all times. I am also contacted if there are any concerns regarding Mum’s health or ongoing care. Many thanks to you all."

"Always a welcome smile. The gentle way carers were with my Mum (she passed away 3/3/20). Their kindness and love shown to her. Hilton Park always clean. The laundry staff managing to return resident's clothes to them, even when we missed naming the item. Pureed food and thickened drinks as per Mum's diet via the kitchen. Her stay lasted 30th May 2019 to 3rd March 2020, nine months, when her care was most needed and was certainly provided. Thanks to all at Hilton Park."

Ann G

"My mother lived here for 10 months and I believe she couldn't have had better care anywhere else. There were plenty of hugs and hand-holding along with the practical care. She had to have a pureed diet and that was catered for at every meal. She was encouraged to go to the entertainment and activities that she was able to do. The staff seemed to have the same feelings as the family, when she was unwell and when she eventually died. We were given every support at that very sad time, hugs and sandwiches and tea, whilst we waited for the doctor and undertakers to arrive."

"My husband was here for 4 weeks as an interim patient following hospitalisation for a severe infection. I found the home very welcoming as a visitor and we both enjoyed the atmosphere of the home and grounds. We cannot give enough praise to the carers. They were consistently cheerful, helpful and responsive to his needs. He was always treated with dignity and became very fond of the team."

"What a lovely home! Fantastic, kind and friendly staff; beautiful, clean and well-decorated building, in a lovely setting. My friend is so happy here, she tells us all repeatedly she doesn't want to go home, that she is happy, and that she is looked after 24/7. She was a fussy eater but loves the food and eats everything she is given. She is so happy here. I was so worried about her before she went in and I was often in tears about her. Bless you all for the kindness you are showing her. She praises you all the time. I can relax now, knowing she is somewhere receiving kindness, consideration and respect. Thank you so much for your care."

"My father was sent to Hilton Park as part of NHS continuing care. Everyone was kind, attentive and by the end of his stay, it was obvious he had bonded with the staff caring for him. From any observations staff made great efforts to familiarise themselves with individual resident's likes and dislikes. I commend them for this as it must make frail and vulnerable people feel safe and cared for. I was less happy with the room. Mainly regarding the shabbiness of the bathroom. Definitely scored low on cleanliness. Toilet roll holder broken off the wall, making it hard to reach loo paper with limited mobility. Balance issues. Windows in desperate need of cleaning - hard to see out of."

"My father has been cared for in Maple Ward/Oaklands for a little over a year. His day to day care is wonderful. Each of the carers and nurses provides professional care and unbelievable level of compassion and consideration for all residents, and great concern and support to relatives. This under very difficult circumstances and obvious understaffing problems. Management do their best, but I suspect their 'hands are tied' by achieving 'over-stretched' targets. The rooms, facilities and food are very good. Finally, I am personally very grateful to the 'front-line' staff for their tireless work and dedication - please consider the pressure you put them under."

"My mother was resident at Hilton Park for more than four and a half years until her passing in December 2016. At the start of her stay, she was an active participant in everything on offer at the home and enjoyed the full range of activities. In the early days, she looked forward to every day and was fully supported by the excellent staff, facilities and organisation. Unfortunately, as time went on her personal health deteriorated and she found herself bed-bound for basically the last two years. With her deterioration, the care required from the staff obviously increased and we were very grateful for their professionalism and understanding. During the latter part of her stay, she was in need of constant attention with special medical and dietary needs. All aspects of these requirements were comprehensively covered right up to the end. There is no doubt in our minds that Hilton Park is a first class, well run care home and would receive our recommendation and endorsement to any friends or family if they needed any similar care. It is good to find an establishment that is not tarnished by the negative press often handed out to this type of service provider."

"It was reported to us by the lady we had come to see that quite often her food is put down out of reach and when she asks the person bringing her food to move it nearer, their English is limited so all they can say is I'll bring a nurse! who doesn't come? My friend doesn't like to keep on ringing this is bad for care and health of people in your care."

"My uncle spent the last three weeks of his life at Hilton Park in Bottisham. He was moved from hospital to the home within 24 hours of my contact with the manager. He loved it from the first moment he moved there. The manager was efficient and caring and I found her very supportive initially and during his stay. The room he was allocated was wonderful, bright, clean every facility he needed plus it overlooked a beautiful garden. All the staff with out exception were excellent, very caring and understanding, kind and considerate in all ways. He was given all the medial treatment he required and was allowed to spend the last few weeks of his life with dignity fully supported and cared for by the staff around him. I shall always be grateful to them. I would highly recommend this home."

They made a difficult time a better experience. Thank you to them all."
