Overall Experience

My Parents both entered Bascombe Court in March 2022. Unfortunately my father died a couple of months later but I know his final weeks were amongst the happiest he spent with my Mother until his passing.
The admittance of my parents and their immediate care needs were dealt with without fuss and really

exceeded my expectations, and, still continuing is the first class care for my Mother.
The management and team at all levels have a truly exceptional work ethic with a friendly and caring attitude at all times.
The rooms are spotless and cleaned regularly.
Having some experience of other care homes where other family members are resident, I will be forever grateful that Bascombe Court came to their rescue when needed.

Since my mother-in-law was admitted to Bascombe Court, she has been treated with exceptional care. I can’t wish for anything better; the staff have been fantastic through the whole pandemic reassuring us. Would definitely recommend.

Overall Experience

My mum was admitted to Bascombe Court the middle of April and I can honestly say I would have no problem recommending it to anyone. The care mum received was excellent and the manager and all the staff are lovely and so helpful. Mum was extremely happy there and they made the last few weeks of her life

very happy and comfortable giving me peace of mind.

Overall Experience

I moved my Aunt here at the end of December 2018. She has thrived here. When she arrived from a previous care home, she was in a poor state of health. The care she has received here is of a high standard, all the staff are kind, caring, professional, friendly and treat my Aunt with respect. My Aunt

has blossomed here and I would highly recommend this care home. The atmosphere is always welcoming and the home is always light and bright, there are lots of activities and the manager even brings her dog to the home which the residents love. There is a hairdressing salon and the residents can also have their nails done.
The furnishings are of a high standard and the rooms a good size with ensuite and are always clean.
Food is cooked onsite and is of a high standard and nutritious, the residents are offered lots of cups of tea and coffee and snacks, guests are also offered refreshments.
I can't thank Bascombe Court enough for giving my Aunt a new beginning at 94. Thank you all!

Overall Experience

My mother has now lived here for 6 1/2 years and she describes the staff as her second family. She is always telling me how lucky she has been to find such a lovely place to live. Recent improvements to the building make the place light, bright and very attractive. Dining room and lounge furniture have

all been replaced with light wood, including a beautiful set of bookshelves. Mum has no complaints and I have to thank management and staff for helping us as a family with any problems.

Overall Experience

I feel totally relaxed with my mother living in Bascombe Court. The staff are delightful, friendly and most importantly make eye contact with you when I visit, ask you how you are and offer you a cup of tea. All the staff seem to be friends with the residents, which makes it one big happy family. My

mother seems very contented and well cared for here. Well done to the management and staff. Looking forward to the Christmas party.

Reply from Nikki Rogers, Director at Bascombe Court

Review from John M (Son of Resident) published on 11 September 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

We were recommended Bascombe by friends who both had mothers living here. We were naturally nervous for our mum when she moved in, especially as dad had previously been in a very poor home. It was literally a breath of fresh air.
Mum settled in quite quickly and although we ask on every visit, she

has "nothing to complain about at all, all very good". We think she really enjoys the social contact and the staff are always very kind and attentive. The room/facilities and good are of a very good standard and the management team friendly, flexible and responsive - it is a real "home from home".

Review from Freda P (Daughter of Resident) published on 22 August 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

My mother has been in Bascombe Court for just over a year and is very happy, as are my sister and I. We can come and go as we please. The atmosphere in the home and with the staff is lovely. We are always offered tea and cakes. Mum's room is always cleaned to a high standard, her medical and dietary

needs are always dealt with to high standards. We would like to say that the chairs in the dining room are quite heavy and we think it would be a good idea if there were some lighter fold up chairs in the lounge.

Reply from Nikki Rogers, Director at Bascombe Court

Thank you for your kind words. It is lovely to know that you are happy with everything in the home. It is also good for the staff to know when they are doing well as it is not always easy being a carer and I am sure they will appreciate your words.

Cannot praise this home enough! Mum is happy and feels safe, which is so important with Dementia.

The staff are truly dedicated and enjoy their jobs - from manager to domestics. This home has changed the family circumstances for the better - we can all relax knowing Mum is being so well looked

after.

Overall Experience

All staff at every level are caring and patient. They always listen and try to provide for individual requests. All the residents always look clean, happy and I visit at least once or twice per week.

I cannot fault how both my parents (who are not easy) are being looked after.

It has made a

huge difference to my life to know they are safe and cared for so well.

My mother broke her hip in April and for 5 months went in and out of care until we found Bascombe. What a wonderful place. She is so settled now that the change in her attitude has been incredible. We can't praise it enough.
