Clara Court provides my mother with the utmost care and attention. My mother is treated with dignity, respect and understanding of her condition which is severe Alzheimers and dementia. The team observe and listen to my mother's needs as well as our comments and feedback. We have built a trusting relationship between our family and the team to ensure the very best for my mother. Any questions or concerns we have are dealt with and handled immediately and we cannot fault the professionalism and duty of care from everyone involved. Thank you Clara Court for looking after my mother so well.
I am delighted with the care that my mum is getting. All staff are first class. Food is excellent and the home is wonderful and is very, very clean. Staff communicate with me about mum. We enjoy a dance in the reception with the staff and its fine.

Things are always very well arranged. I can't wait for the time when I can come here myself. We are always looked after when we visit the staff all know us and we always get a lovely welcome.

When I visited Clara Court the first time back a couple of years I ago, I knew the service provided was different to any other care home. I immediately knew I wanted my Grandma to stay there. Having Dementia is an awful illness and is difficult to leave your loved ones in care but I was reassured after visiting Clara Court and seeing the other residents well settled and looking happy. Since my Grandma has been there, she appears settled and happier in herself which gives us as the family a peace of mind and reassurance she's well cared for. She's always clean, well groomed and enjoys the meals, and is constantly participating in activities that Clara Court provide for their residents. I would like to say thank you to all the staff and the effort they took to decorate the home this Christmas, just looked amazing and really made Christmas special for not just my Grandma as a resident but also us visiting as guests too.
My gran is so relaxed and happy. There is a lovely atmosphere and it is so nice to hear music playing.
Everything about this place is wonderful. You can feel the love and care in the atmosphere.

My friend has been living in Clara Court for two years and the staff are very very supportive and caring. The home is always clean and the food is very good. Could not wish for a better place.

As a friend of a resident at Clara Court I have been visiting for four years now and every single visit has made me so grateful that my friend is in the hands of the most professional and genuinely caring staff. The facilities allow residents to enjoy activities and interaction with others promoting a very friendly and almost family-like environment and I know although my friend has lost capacity to know who we are now, he remains happy cared for and loved by all the staff.
Clara Court is immaculately clean, the food and facilities are first class, I would highly recommend this care home to anyone having the unfortunate task of procuring the right environment for their loved one, whether for a short term or long term stay.

I have been associated with Clara Court for over a year now, firstly my wife used to come here for respite care several times a year and since June 2017 came as a permanent resident but unfortunately she passed away at the end of August 2017. Since her death, the management have invited me for lunch as and when I needed which I am very grateful for. I may add the care that was given to my wife was second to none and the staff have made me feel welcome when I come to lunch.

As mum entered Clara Court at very short notice the staff and management all helped significantly to get her settled in very quickly and were mindful of her dietary requirements following a short illness. I would have no hesitation in recommending Clara Court. Thank you so much for making her visit/stay so comfortable.

My dad is always clean and tidy unfortunately he is unable to walk or communicate with people but this does not stop the staff talking to him and they always get a smile from him. I cannot thank the staff and management for the care they give to my dad. Thank you so very much.
My father was found a respite bed at Clara Court as my mother could no longer care for him at home. The room is spacious and bright, all the staff are professional and caring, and everyone here has helped our family far beyond expectations. We are 100% satisfied with Clara Court and it's staff.

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.
