Lime Tree Court

My mother was a resident for just over two years. She had Alzheimer's and could be very difficult to deal with at times. Throughout her stay, she was treated with respect and kindness by all of the people who work there. In the earlier days, she joined in activities including quizzes and sing-alongs and towards the end, she was cared for gently and with dignity. I cannot fault the care she received and when she passed away it was amongst friends.

Whilst nothing is perfect I have found very little wrong with Lime Tree Court. The building itself is of many years of age and projects itself as a true home. Over 3 years I have witnessed the caring nature of staff and their infinite patience.

Our mother spent the last year or so of her life at Lime Tree Court. She was stressed and anxious when she arrived and had lost a lot of weight. Due to a combination of much better care and understanding, the superb attitude from the staff, and the home environment, she improved considerably. She enjoyed the daytime activities, and the presence of other residents and very visible staff, which made for a sense of complete community.

Lime Tree Court is in a quiet village, at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, and feels safe and secluded. There is little external noise other than birdsong, the church clock chiming and the local primary school children playing at break times. We had no concerns about our mother with regard to her safety.

Any medical issues were addressed quickly and the local GP was excellent.

The house itself is quite old, but we have noticed over time the gradual improvement in facilities whilst our mother was a resident.

The owner and her colleagues are to be congratulated.

My mother was 87 yrs, with quite advanced dementia when she became a resident at Lime Tree Court, I had made my choice of home with due diligence. Although this was some time ago, we continue to visit a close friend who has been at Lime Tree Court for 2 yrs or so. The new management have made subtle changes to decor, but the essence of committed high-quality client care continues. All the staff are delightful and wonderful with clients. Many are still working at Lime Tree Court and I regard them as real friends whilst remaining very grateful for their care to my mum who died at 90yrs of age.

Mother has been cared for by the wonderful staff at Lime Tree Court for the last 7 1/2 years. The environment is as close to being "at home" as is possible in a care home. The staff all know all the residents and treat them with respect, love and so much care. Visitors are always made very welcome at any time and are never made to feel in the way. I could not ask for a better place for my mother to be.
