Your questions answered
Questions families often ask
What is Hill Care, and where are your care homes?
Hill Care is a family of more than 30 care homes across the North of England, run from our head office in Chesterfield. Our homes are in the North East, Yorkshire, the North West and the East Midlands. The group began with Burton Closes Hall in Bakewell and has cared for older people for more than 20 years. See all our homes on the map.
What types of care do your homes offer?
Our homes offer residential, nursing, dementia, respite, palliative and end-of-life care, and day care at selected homes. Each home's page lists exactly which types of care it provides, and you can filter homes by type of care on our map. Read more about each type of care.
How do I find the right care home for my relative?
Start by choosing the area and the type of care your relative needs, then compare a few homes and visit your favourites. Our Our Homes map lets you search by town or postcode and filter by care type. If you're not sure what level of care is needed, call our care enquiries team on 01246 962 900 for free, friendly advice.
Can we visit a home before deciding?
Yes, and we encourage it. You're welcome to look around, meet the manager and team, and see daily life for yourself. Calling ahead means the manager can be free to show you around properly. Book a visit or call the home directly.
How much does a Hill Care home cost, and how can fees be paid?
Fees depend on the home, the room and the level of care someone needs, so we give each family a personal quote. Care can be paid for privately, by the local authority after a needs and financial assessment, by NHS Continuing Healthcare, or with an NHS contribution towards nursing care (Funded Nursing Care). Call 01246 962 900 for current fees at the homes you're interested in.
How quickly can someone move in?
It depends on availability and a short assessment of the person's needs, which makes sure the home is the right fit. Some homes can arrange a move within days, for example after a hospital stay. Call 01246 962 900 to check current availability near you.
Are your homes inspected by the CQC?
Yes. Every Hill Care home is registered with and inspected by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), the independent regulator of adult social care in England. Each home's page shows its latest CQC rating and reviews from residents and families.
Can residents bring their own furniture or pets?
Residents are encouraged to bring photos, keepsakes and small pieces of furniture so their room feels like home. Some homes can also welcome a pet, depending on the home and the animal. Please ask the home manager about what's possible at that home.
