Ashbourne Court Care Home Reviews (2)
Ashbourne Court Care Home has a Review Score of 8.1 (8.146) out of 10, based on 1 reviews in the last 2 years.
Over all time Ashbourne Court Care Home has 2 reviews.
My mother recently passed away after living at Ashbourne Court for over 3 years. During that time her Alzheimer's progressed from mild to severe. As the disease progressed and she became bedbound she was totally dependent on the managers professional care for the last 18 months of her life. There is no better testament to the quality of that care than my mother's health and well being during those months- she had absolutely no issues with skin, infection, eating, or any other complications usually seen in this situation.
I could not have asked for better care at every stage.
The manager and her team were unfailingly caring, kind, competent and compassionate. As my mother's Alzheimer's progressed and her behaviour became erratic the managers care plan was exemplary and her day to day documentation of my mother's behaviour prompt and thorough. I was totally confident that she was safe and in professional hands.
Throughout the years, the manager communicated regularly and comprehensively.
Thank you very much for your kind words, we really appreciate your views. It was a pleasure to look after your mother
My mother has been in this lovely caring care home for the past 2 months, the staff are so friendly and efficient, nothing is too much trouble. I would highly recommend this home as this is really like a home from home. Plus the meals are lovely home-cooked too.
