My aunt spent the last two years of her life at Clara Court and was very happy there. She blossomed in her time there, gaining in independence and confidence and finding a new freedom within this sheltered and secure environment, enabling her to do so many new things with the enthusiastic activity...
All the staff have good personal knowledge of the residents and are all supportive and caring. The staff have also been very helpful to us, the family, and could not have done more for all of us.
My wife has been here since February 2018 and has a very good experience the whole time she has been here. I have also been impressed and I do wish all the staff the very best they have shown. Thank you very much.

Clara Court has been a warm and welcoming sanctuary since I first stepped over the threshold.
The staff are all caring and helpful and my mother settled in so quickly due in no small part to the friendly atmosphere created by the caring staff. It is a pleasure to visit my mum at Clara Court.

Food seems good (and adaptable to residents' individual needs). Can't fault it.

I was discharged from the hospital to this facility. Extremely warm and friendly carers. One carer, in particular, does go the extra mile for everyone.

I was greeted by a friendly, caring manager. All staff were friendly and caring. The premises were very clean and fresh. This is a purpose-built care home with all facilities. I know my wife is in safe hands. I would recommend this home without hesitation.

I am very happy to recommend Clara Court to anyone who is looking for somewhere for a loved one who is in need of 24 hour care.
My uncle has been living in Clara Court for about one year and I am very happy with the care he is getting. Lovely home, staff are good and helpful and the home very clean.

This is an airy, bright and modern environment with a cheerful and welcoming feel about it. Staff are always pleasant and helpful. The rooms are clean and sufficiently equipped. There are activities for those residents who are able to participate and the food seems good and varied.

I was welcomed as soon as I came in the building and the first thing I noticed was it smelt clean and looked warm and welcoming, activities were taking place and the residents and staff were roaring with laughter. I was offered a large selection of refreshments, lovely cup of coffee and biscuits and all the staff that I see said hello with a smile, I was also asked several times by different staff if I was alright.
I got speaking to other families of visitors who informed me that they were very lucky to have a place at Clara for their loved ones. I see my Aunt being offered choices from the menu and when served it looked very appetising and well presented. Well done Clara Court.

I was kept informed of any medical incidents instantly.
Clara Court is an example to all.
Social services found the home more suitable than my relation's old one. Transfer to new home easy to organise and went well. My relation has settled in and my wife and I are relieved she is now in a good and safe environment.

I’ve been at Clara Court since 2009, when I joined the team as a care assistant. I joined because Care UK has a clear vision for older people’s care which I believe in. I’m also passionate about providing high quality care and I want to make a difference to the lives of the people we care for.
Another rewarding part of my role is empowering colleagues to ensure that residents live their lives in the way they want. I enjoy engaging and motivating colleagues and seeing them develop and succeed.
Each day is different in this role. I enjoy having the chance to continue learning and developing my skills, and I love spending time with residents, supporting them to continue to live happy and fulfilling lives.
