Clara Court

My father was treated with the utmost respect and with dignity. The staff he couldn't fault. Dad did not like the food too many sandwiches which he does not enjoy and said the food was bland. Also, tea was served far too early and he was hungry by 7 o'clock again. If dad comes in for respite again, I'd like him to be with residents that can hold a conversation. Even though dad has early dementia, I feel this became worse when he was in as he had no one apart from the wonderful staff to have a conversation with.

My mum has been in Clara Court for over two years and during that time her care has been above excellent. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff from the management to the cleaner and everyone between. She suffers from dementia and some days and nights are more difficult but at all times, she is treated with love, patience, care, respect and dignity. She has come back to health and eats all the excellent food at 99 years of age. Thank you, everyone, for all you do for us. It is reassuring to know she is receiving the best care and when visiting always seems happy.

Clara Court has become a familiar home from home for short residential respite periods for my husband. He is always welcomed and well looked after. Carers spend time and chat with him as well as look after his needs. This time the activities coordinator deserves a special mention for taking the time to visit my husband in his room to discuss the daily social activities and encouraging him to get involved. Cards were a particular favourite, which he thoroughly enjoyed. Our thanks to all the team at Clara Court.

big thank you to everyone that made Mums remaining years happy ones.

My mother is very happy in Clara Court and is well cared for 24/7. She enjoys her food and amuses herself during the day. Although not very sociable, she does have the opportunity of musing with other residents.

The care staff are of the highest quality and have an excellent caring attitude.

Clara Court is a friendly and welcoming care home. All the staff are approachable and have been very helpful with any questions or requests. Visitors are welcomed by name and encouraged to join in with the many activities on offer. Rooms are spacious and clean with many personal touches. There are beautiful well kept gardens with lots of seating areas and pet rabbits. Mum talks about the lovely food and home made cakes and tea. She described Clara Court as " like a ten star hotel."

Thank you so very much.

They are patient with our enquiries and professional in their approach. There is an air of calm around the facility which is clearly felt by the residents and reflected in their demeanour.

Not a dull moment!!

As a fairly new resident, my mother has received nothing but excellent care delivered with outstanding courtesy. Our experience of this home (or community as I like to regard it) has been wonderful and my family and I are so pleased that she is very happy.

Our mother moved into Clara Court earlier this year. We cannot praise it enough. The manager and her team of staff are not only professional but so caring. You can feel the love as you walk through the front door. Mum has settled so well and says everyone is so kind and she feels safe. The staff made the very quick transition from Mum's home to Clara Court so easy. The facilities are wonderful. We are thrilled with Clara Court!

My Mother is a day service user and has been since 2012.She enjoys activities daily run by staff and there are regular external entertainers. I have tasted the meals that the chefs make and they include homemade soups and smoked salmon and asparagus which is incredible for a care home. Mum is also able to access a doctor on weekly visits and staff arrange monthly medication. The facilities are in good condition and communal areas and rooms are cleaned regularly. I can honestly say that the staff go over and above from the manager downwards.

The staff at Clara Court are always friendly and efficient. My father, who is a resident, always looks tidy and clean. Also, we are very impressed with the activities which are arranged for the residents.

A very big thank you to everyone.

My mother came into Clara Court in the middle of March and has settled in very well. As her daughters, who have cared for her for nearly 8 years at home, my sisters and I cannot praise the staff - every one of them - too highly. Their care and love (you can feel the love when you walk through the door), the cleanliness, food, and rooms including ensuites, are immaculate. My mother is very happy, praises the staff continually, says that she feels safe there as someone is always there to help her - (she has short term memory loss). So thank you Clara Court.

I am very pleased my husband is here. 100% trust he is here (including all my family) I appreciate my husband coming into Clara Court. I will say thank you very much for helping my husband.

They have been very caring and thoughtful throughout the whole time my step dad has been in the home. The longevity of the staff is a credit to the home and demonstrates the comfortable, relaxed and competent atmosphere the home has. Everyone knew me by name and were always very welcoming every time I visited no matter what time day or night. Clara Court is a truly fantastic care home and I give them a huge credit for their care and would recommend them to anyone.

My stay here was very beautiful. Everything was fine here. The staff and the food were excellent. I have been here 9 months now, so I think its time to go home. Obviously, my priorities have changed so I have to prepare and live a better life. Thanks for all your care.

As a family, we had to take a huge emotional step in mum going to a Care Home, but without doubt, we have, in Clara Court, found a real jewel. So a big thanks to all the team there who are making such wonderful efforts in ensuring that our mum is in such safe and caring hands.

I am very happy with the care my mother is receiving at Clara Court. Staff have been very understanding and patient in coping with my mother's resistance to accepting help with personal care and managing her more challenging behaviour. She is responding well to being in a safe environment and has started to take part in the activities on offer. Thank you.
