This has been a 'life-saver' holiday for me After a replacement knee (& being a widow living alone) I found the care, accommodation & general ethos of the home 'really' helpful. With no appetite when I came in & the worry of how to cope with every day needs pressing on me - the court dispelled it all.
My very grateful thanks!

My mother has Alzheimers and we were able to find a Mews Bungalow at Nynehead where she has been able to continue having independence while having all the support and benefits of living within a caring community. I can't thank the Nynehead team enough for the amazing job they are doing. They have been
caring and compassionate throughout and we have felt part of family not just a resident. As my mothers' care requirements have increased we have worked very closely with the Nynehead care team and they have been fantastic and so incredibly supportive. It is such a wonderful environment and with all the activities and friendly staff I know my mother is very happy and safe at Nynehead.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum was resident at Nynehead Court for a total of 9 years. She was initially more able and joined in the activities in the main house, and as her needs increased, she moved into the Mulberry Wing.
My mum always said that she felt content at Nynehead Court. Living there was her choice.
She especially
enjoyed the musical activities that related to her preferred types of music, such as the sessions run by one of the visiting music facilitators.
In terms of standards of care, my mum received the care that was stipulated in her care plan. I was able to contribute as well, such as by giving my mum a manicure, and feeding her when she was unable to do this herself.
I was able to access her care plan and so I was up to date with any medical consultations she had. My mum never needed hospitalisation during her time at Nynehead Court, and was able to remain there until she passed away.

This was my husband's second stay for respite care. He was treated with the utmost respect and kindness and welcomed back.
The attention and care he received were second to none. Enabling me to have a restful break visiting family.
He especially enjoyed the Chinese New Year banquet organised by the
chef and staff.

Review from Catherine H (Daughter of Resident) published on 3 February 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has been a resident of Nynehead Court for over two years now. She is so content here and really does consider it to be her home rather than 'being in a home'. She has nothing but praise for the staff who are kind and respectful - because of the low turnover of staff, she has made meaningful
relationships with them. The food is another area she rates highly because there is plenty of choice and the chef is responsive to her likes and dislikes. She looks forward to making her choices and to the meals arriving. It is so reassuring to us as a family that she is eating well. Mum enjoys some of the activities and appreciates the efforts made by the staff and notices the kindness shown to other residents. She is not pressured into 'joining in' when she doesn't want to. It was lovely at Christmas to join her for carols in the drawing room, which was beautifully decorated, with the Wellington Silver Band leading the singing. The gardens are an added pleasure. Thanks to all.

My father has been a resident at Nynehead since August 2023. He is very much part of an extended family. My father is able to take part in all the external activities and has enjoyed the Remembrance parade, ballet, carol concert, and regular days out. All the staff treat him with respect, and their
fondness for him is palpable. The staff regularly contact us regarding his ongoing medical and mental needs to ensure his ongoing care is shared as appropriate. In précis, my brothers and I truly believe that Nynehead is the best home available and the best place for our father.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
As daughter of a long standing resident I have interacted with many members of the care team. I found them to be very understanding of my father's condition and needs and helpful in suggestions of how best to address those needs. Staff are friendly, polite and engage with residents throughout the day.
While he was mobile staff kept an eye on his walks around the garden, monitoring exit and return. Once he was confined to his room staff visited regularly to monitor him, but in a very subtle way - housekeeping staff come in to clean or collect or return laundry, senior carers come in with medication, regular tea/coffee delivery means another person popping in for a chat. The home itself is in good condition, with the exception of the lift which is on its last legs. The quality of the food is good. Periodic resident meetings, to which family are invited provide opportunity for feedback. The management are always willing to discuss and resolve any issues.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My ninety-two-year-old mother has been a resident of Nynehead Court for four years. She has loved her time there, not least because of skilled and compassionate care from the staff. Her relationship with Nynehead was put to the test earlier this year after she had a stroke. She spent weeks in a local
hospital and then a residential rehab unit. Because of her frailty, there was a debate over whether she should be discharged back to Nynehead or to a nursing home. We wanted Mum to return to Nynehead where she could be surrounded by familiar and friendly faces. We are so grateful that Nynehead supported us and worked diligently with NHS representatives to ensure that she would receive proper and appropriate post-stroke care. Nynehead didn't need to do this, they could have allowed Mum to be sent to a nursing home. But the senior management recognized their responsibility to their resident. Now Mum is receiving wonderful and quite labor-intensive care at Nynehead Court.

A tranquil setting with magnificent grounds. My mother has been made to feel at home from the beginning of her stay and welcomed into the Nynehead family. The staff are very aware of her needs, and embrace, and encourage her interests. Her room is spotlessly clean as well as comfortably furnished. I
highly recommend all that Nynehead Court offers my mum.

I have been to look around quite a few care homes recently. This is the first that has been professional but caring without being too clinical. I needed somewhere that Dad would feel like he was having a break/holiday rather than feeling he was being placed in a hospital environment. Here he has good
company, stimulation and was treated with care and respect.

The staff at Nynehead Court are simply wonderful. They are lively, caring and always interested in my mother. My mother is well fed and happy and content. She is encouraged to join in many activities which she enjoys. She seems much more well since she has been at Nynehead. The staff are also very supportive
to the family as it is a difficult step moving mother to a care home. Nynehead Court is an excellent choice.

Sometimes I feel the food could be better presented, and at times, the meat is too chunky and a bit off-putting. At this stage of life, meals are very important. The staff are cheerful and kind. Overall, there is a lovely atmosphere, and the activities ladies do a wonderful job, which really provides
positivity for the residents.

Mum has been at Nynehead Court for seven months and has settled in really well. All the staff are so kind, caring and understanding. Despite numerous Covid lockdowns, they always remained so cheerful and positive and continues to provide great activities. It was a difficult decision to move mum from
her flat to Nynehead Court, but after seven months, as a family, we are sure we made the right decision as mum has benefited so much from the companionship of the other residents and the care of the staff.

I can say hand on heart the team at Nynehead Court are remarkable. My mother hates having to be in a residential home, yet the care and attention she gets makes her life bearable - even joyful at times. Even through lockdown, the care has been unfaltering.

My mother and father and now an auntie have been residents in this home on and off since 2008. Mother having a four years stay and passing away peacefully at this home. The staff are so caring, polite and welcoming; many having been there for many years, a true sign of a contented family environment.
There is nothing more pleasant when visiting to be welcome by name. Rooms are airy, cleaned regularly, and residents looked in upon many times during the day. Feels like a little community.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.777)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.777) out of 10 for Nynehead Court is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 9 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.877 for Nynehead Court is calculated as follows: ( (93 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 106 Ratings = 4.877
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 4.9 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Nynehead Court is based on 9 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 3.9
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 44 registered maximum number of service users is 8.8, which has been reached with 9 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

In 2015, after having an operation on my knee that did not go as planned I returned to work but helping in the office. I was offered the Administrator role, and did some external bookkeeping classes to help me. I absolutely love the job I am doing now and working with a great team here at Nynehead Court.
