Elvy Court Care Home
from S W (Daughter of Resident) published on 4 December 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Mum's been at Elvy for about 5 weeks and has settled much better than we ever thought she would. We've been able to add our own touches to her room so she is surrounded by things that are familiar to her. She's being encouraged to join in the activities and is enjoying doing this. She's made friends

with other residents which is lovely to see. The staff are all lovely with her, and we are able to visit whenever we like. It was a huge step for the family moving mum to Elvy, but we can see that she is happy, which makes us happy. She's also safe here which is very very important to us.

Review of
Rivermere Care Home - Avery Healthcare
from A P (Resident) published on 21 November 2025 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

Fourteen years ago my brother came to live here, the "Sunrise" Two years ago I joined him, choosing an excellent apartment overlooking a delightful garden. Services had not regained pre Covid standards but were adequate. During my residency standards have further declined, poor dining room experiences,

activities of no appeal to me and too many minor inefficiencies for contented living. Management seem more concerned with appearances to visitors and inspection than customer satisfaction. Residents meetings do not serve the deaf and shy. No one from management or customer services talks regularly say six monthly to each resident, in the comfort of their own rooms, to gain impression of their living experiences and why if dissatisfied, they don't leave. My reason is my apartment, and the friendly staff, but the quality of service is most disappointing.

Springwood Corner Care Home
from Angela S (Daughter of Resident) published on 14 November 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Big thank you to all of the team at Springwood Corner for looking after our loved ones on a two week respite. The rooms were made up as a first class hotel ,with the laundry and wardrobes having that Savoy style touch. organised events were especially good and we were kept up today with photos During

their stay and taking part with activities. The catering team helped with our father's 91st birthday party. It went so well making us precious memories together. overall experience at Springwood corner was emotional for all of us but with the help of the team it ran smoothly and our parents thoroughly enjoyed it. The nursing team help settle them into their two week respite and we are hoping that they will revisit it again for another respite soon.

Overall Experience

Dad has been in Elvy Court for a number of years now and so is very settled. His room is bright and comfortable, and he seems to be well cared for by all the staff. He even comments that "they look after me very well!" All of the staff that we have dealt with including the nurses, carers and administration

team are friendly and helpful, so it isn't only Dad that they look after, it's family members too.

My father spent his last 4 months as a resident in the Miramar. The whole team were outstanding in helping him to adjust to his new accomodation, in dealing with his increasing fraility with kindness and compassion and in taking care of him with genuine concern and care through to the end.

The staff are incredibly nice. Everyone is so friendly and helpful. From the moment I walked in until I left, I felt so at home and so wonderfully welcomed. I was able to take part in some activities which was a lot of fun.
I had the privilege of eating lunch one of the days while visiting mum.

The food was absolutely delicious.
Thank you for making my visit with mum so amazing. I always look forward to visiting her in such a lovely welcoming care facility.

from Denise P (Daughter of Resident) published on 29 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My mother has been in Elvy Court for 6 years now and if it wasn't for the care and dedication she receives from the staff she definitely would still not be here now. The staff are both caring and professional and the degrees of care she receives is first class. I can visit her at any time and everyone

from the reception team, carers and management including kitchen staff are exceptional. I can ask them about mums condition and they can always tell me without having to look up on their computer, this shows their dedication to their residents. My husband was in their care with vascular dementia for some 2.5 years and he was treated with dignity and respect and he was a very difficult resident at times. Elvy Court has many functions for the residents and I have attended some and they are very interactive and interesting and the residents thoroughly enjoy them. Anyone looking for a care home that provides excellent care for their relatives, then Elvy Court is for you.

Overall Experience

My father has been a resident of Elvy Court since August. He has dementia and Alzheimer's and after a hospital stay, we realised how frail he had become.
It was an emotional step to put him in a care home but moving him to Elvy Court has been great. The place is like a hotel, staff and facilities

are fantastic and the food is so good. My dad has become so much stronger. Highly recommended.

Overall Experience

Our mum has recently become a resident at Elvy Court.
We were worried about how the effect of the transition of moving homes would affect mum, the staff have showed compassion and kindness towards mum, and us too.
They have taken all of our concerns on board, and reassured us on every occasion.

The care mum is receiving is exceptional, and we are always greeted with happy faces.
Elvy Court has a very nice feel about it.
The rooms are light and spacious, very clean and welcoming.
There are several rooms to use within Elvy Court depending on what your visit entails.
There is entertainment on a regular basis if you want to participate.
The in house hair salon is lovely, the maintenance team are great and will help to make your loved ones room really feel like home.
Well done Elvy Court for making these difficult times as nice as you possibly can.

from Alan M (Son of Resident) published on 17 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

I was very happy with my fathers care whilst at Elvy court, especially with the fantastic staff who cared for him, they were extremely helpful and very patient and always treated him like a guest rather than a resident. The food was also well presented and according to him very flavoursome, his room

was always spotlessly clean as were the communal areas, I particularly like the family room that had a wonderful coffee machine and some cakes and biscuits available. I would highly recommend Elvy court to anyone looking for a home where their loved ones can be happy, safe and well cared for.

I was not looked forward to leaving my home but I was delighted to find how happy I was to have been staying at Rivermere! Everyone was so kind and caring and also helpful when I got lost!
