Adamscourt

I talk to her about nature and what's going on in Southbourne and to recall as much as poss. She always says about the view from her window, watching squirrels!

A small intimate, and homely care home where the resident counts as part of the family. Excellent care was given to my mother in her last weeks of life, and Sue passed away with dignity, care and attention. Staff were attentive and helped my mum through a difficult time, making the transition peaceful for her and also for me. I can thoroughly recommend this care home as going the 'extra mile' with a genuine personal touch. I will forever be grateful that I chose this home for my mum - RIP.

I have found the manager Vanessa and her assistant Rebecca very helpful with the moving in process, and any queries I may have.

Vanessa and all the team all do a very good job, are polite and attentive, and take care of all mum's needs. The care home has a friendly and homely atmosphere. If mum needs a hospital appointment or doctors, they organise it all, including transport. Mum has recently had her 100th and 101st birthday and they arranged a splendid party and buffet for her. They also arrange nice trips out on their wheelchair friendly minibuses. We are very grateful to all at Adamscourt. Thank you.

My mother has been a resident for a year at Adamscourt and the care and support she has received has been superb. The staff are respectful and friendly in their interactions with my mother. She has had various medical issues throughout the year that they have managed and accessed outside professional support. They managed the more challenging aspects of her Alzheimer's positively, kindly and with reassurance. We as a family are notified of any issues either by phone or in person. Any emails forwarded are responded to swiftly and professionally. Staff are friendly, welcoming and approachable. They always listen to our input on issues. The care home has a high level of cleanliness and thankfully smells pleasant too. There are regular activities organised and they encourage involvement. Trips are organised on a minibus which is fabulous for my mother to get out and about safely. The food - meals and homemade cakes are superb and you regularly are offered to join in!

I have always found the staff to be caring and kind, they know my Mother and how to nicely interact with her. I am always welcomed to the home whenever I visit. When I ask a question about her wellbeing they are well informed and able to answer or get someone who can. The property is always clean and tidy and her room is also always clean and tidy, with the same true of her bathroom. My Mother has been at Adamscourt since January 2025 and after some settling in has adapted pretty well, on occasions when she has been unwell/upset/anxious the carers have ensured help has been sought. She enjoys her food and has been happy with the food the team serves. Overall I have been very pleased with the care at Adamscourt

The care in Adams Court is excellent, and to prove this they have won a number of awards. All the staff are friendly and approachable. They keep me informed how Pat is doing. The room is kept clean and tidy. The food is excellent, I know this as I have eaten meals with Pat. There are many activities and excursions. The management are always present and approachable.

I always ask dad if he feels happy and feels relaxed at Adamscourt,he always replies positively, which takes away my worry and I know he is in safe hands .

Adamscourt welcomed my mum into their care in February 2025. All the staff are very friendly and caring, treating Mum with respect. I am kept well informed on aspects of her care and the staff give me plenty of feedback which I really appreciate. I have observed however that she is not always wearing her hearing aids when I visit which is important for communication and she has been in clothes that don't belong to her. It would be helpful if the menu board was updated daily as this is something I can encourage Mum to talk about. I am very happy with the overall care my mum is receiving.

Nice home, nice view and nice and quiet.

Attentive staff.

Thank you to all staff for taking such good care of my wonderful Dad.

Adamscourt is a warm and welcoming home. Since my Dad has lived there he has had wonderful care and attention. The dedicated staff are very kind, caring, compassionate, friendly and helpful and my father is treated with dignity. He is always well turned out, his room is always clean and his belongings are looked after. The staff are very good at keeping us informed if they have had to seek outside medical help for my Dad at any time and keep us updated. My Dad eats very well and loves his food: they try to accommodate his likes and dislikes with choices at meal times. The home runs fun activities for those that are able to join in and they have trips out in the minibus. Thank you for taking great care of my father. I know he is safe in your hands.

Adamscourt have been amazing with my dad. They really are like a family to him since moving there in February. The staff are kind and really do care about making his time each day a happy one. We are blown away with the activities they put on most days and the trips he has been on this year. With having dementia it’s so important everything they do for him. He’s happy and has made some lovely friends and the staff have become his friends too and ours. I cannot recommend Adamscourt enough. The food is exceptional and there is so much going on every day he’s always excited to tell us all about where he’s been. We always feel Dad is safe and cared for which is so important to us.

Adamscourt is making my aunt's final years as comfortable as possible.

I could not recommend highly enough Adamscourt to anyone thinking about having a relative as a resident there.

I was given support and assistance from all the staff and management of Adamscourt which enabled me to eventually return home to my family. I cannot thank the staff enough for their commitment to my care.

I chose Adamscourt as it is a small care home with only 22 residents. My mother was a resident for three years and the homely atmosphere suited her. There was a consistency of staff throughout her stay, which was reassuring for her and meant all staff knew her and how to respond to her. The staff were always cheerful and helpful and my mother was always well dressed and presented. Pre-Covid, there were regular minibus outings, which my mother enjoyed. During Covid, they protected residents well and still maintained activities for residents. I cannot fault the care home or staff.

It has been a very difficult year, having to accept Mum is no longer the person she was, unable to look after herself and remember the simplest of instructions. Thanks to the amazing team at Adamscourt Care Home, however, I can rest in the knowledge Mum is being well cared for, well fed (all food seems to be cooked on the premises) and well entertained with constant activities. Whilst Mum and I are no longer able to do the things we used to, we are able to make new memories with the help of the team. For this, I am very grateful - Mum is a very precious lady.

My father has been well cared for and seems contented. The staff are friendly and there is a family atmosphere.
