Clara Court

We, as a family, are constantly impressed with the level of care and attention shown to my mother. Despite my mother's illness it is fair to say that she is very happy at Clara Court and that, of course, reassured us that she is in the right place. I have nothing but good things to say about all of the staff from management to cleaners.

Wonderful place. Beautiful grounds. We are made to feel very welcome each time we visit. Staff very friendly and caring - first class.

I can return to Australia feeling reassured she is being completely looked after. Thank you Clara Court

My mother-in-law has expressed the same views.

I think it is a very friendly home and clean. My friend is very happy here and staff are great, always going an extra mile. My friend is happy here and I have peace of mind when I see my friend.

The rooms are a good size, all on-suite and very clean. There are no bad smells to the place at all. Contrary to a number of other care homes that I know, my sister always had her own clothes on, which although labelled cannot be said from my previous experience of care homes. I cannot praise Clara Court enough.

Thank you. Special thanks to the manager.

Mother settled very well despite always saying I am never going into a home.

My mother-in-law first came to Clara Court following a period of hospitalisation. From the beginning, my wife and I were impressed by the care shown by all staff. This was evident in the way that they spoke, the way they listened and responded to my mother-in-law's needs. She was anxious but immediately reassured. One of her favourite phrases now is "I'm very happy here." She has enjoyed the activities provided and when taken out is always keen to make sure that she is back in time for lunch or tea! The staff have also been very patient and helpful in dealing with us as we adjust to "Mum" being in a care home. A big thank you to all the staff.

Mum (and us her family) are very lucky that Mum has a place at Clara Court. After a very difficult time, to our huge relief, Mum's settled very quickly and is much happier. The help that both Mum and we had in the transition from hospital to Clara Court was fabulous. The team at Clara Court have helped both Mum and us, her family, enormously. Mum gets to do lots of activities, is putting on weight and she says she’s no longer lonely. The team at Clara Court have enabled this.

Growing old is a privilege but growing old with dementia can be harrowing both for mum and the family. The manager and her team make everything bearable - thank you xx

Over recent years particularly the Care home industry in the UK has come under severe scrutiny and as an outsider to the service it would be unfair to comment as to whether the scrutiny was justified or not.

During visits to dear friends placed in Clara Court (at different periods and ongoing) since the end of March this year, what is very clear and totally justified is the praise and appreciation for the care, understanding, support, gentleness and friendliness shown to myself and other friends who visit Clara Court to keep in touch with our friends.

From the reception staff on entering and leaving to all personnel providing the atmosphere and support to the professional management of the Home we and our friends are made to feel important and that somebody cares and listens to the needs of our friends.

Thanks to all.

My aunt likes the food.

As a family, we were so apprehensive and scared of placing our very precious mum/nanny into a care home but we did not need to be with Clara Court. All of the staff have been amazing, they are patient, kind, considerate and accommodating. Nothing is too much trouble to enable our mum to settle in her new home. We now feel part of a very large Clara Court family. We could not have done it without all their support. Thank you.

This is not always easy to achieve so well done to all the staff.

Clara Court is a lovely care home. We as a family are very pleased to have our granny here. The staff are lovely and friendly, also very helpful with any questions you have. We are very happy to have our granny here and seeing her enjoying herself.

I am very pleased to say that I'm happy to have my mum-in-law being looked after in this very nice care home. The conditions and friendliness of the staff are excellent.

Mum is very well looked after by caring staff. Staff very welcoming to visitors. If you have any concerns they will sort it out straight away. Good fresh home cooked food for the residents served in a lovely little room. Wouldn't want Mum to be in any other care home. Very satisfied.

Clara Court is a very welcoming place. All the rooms are bright and clean. The staff are very friendly and treat everyone with respect and great care. Nothing seems too much to ask for. You are not just a number there. Really pleased for my mother-in-law.

Our first month has been a great experience for my mother. She has had excellent care and is treated very well.
