I came to Evergreen as urgent respite and will be sad to leave because the staff and residents have shown unconditional positivity as regards to me. Food is great and being honest I can't find fault at Evergreen.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am very happy with the service provided. The staff are very helpful and kind. They care for my wife so well and I know my wife is happy in their care. The carers are amazing, they not only understand my wife's needs but also help me as I have been struggling with not seeing my wife due to Covid. I
phone three times a day and it's never any trouble for them to speak with me and let me know how my wife is.

Mom is very happy here. Her health has greatly improved and after living alone for several years, she now feels she has her life back. The staff are lovely and Mom loves them all. Mom also enjoys her meals and feels really at home here. The staff go the extra mile for the residents, even painting Mom's
nails and providing stimulating activities.

Review from Maureen M (Daughter of Resident) published on 27 August 2020 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother entered Evergreen just ten days before lockdown. She was traumatised by going into the home straight from hospital. The staff soon settled her into a lovely room, very near to the office so that they could keep a close eye on her. My mother has needed a lot of attention and the staff have
comforted her and responded sensitively to her needs. We have been able to visit her during lockdown via a temporary shelter erected outside. I am very impressed with how the staff are providing stimulating activities and we receive regular WhatsApp videos and photos of any events. There is a real family atmosphere within the home and all staff are friendly and approachable.

Mom has been in Evergreen since January 2013. The staff at the home have always been professional, caring and friendly. They show genuine love for my mother, and I can not in all the years she had been at Everygreen fault the care she has received. I have mentioned this home to other people who have
doubts about the 'care system' for their family members.

Thank you very much for your review. Although the bedroom you both chose was very tastefully redecorated throughout before your mother moved in, it is our smallest room.

I find the staff very friendly and helpful. The rooms are fresh and clean. Mom doesn't like some of the dinners. Where mom sits nobody can see or hear the TV. The room where they eat is very pleasant. Thank you for taking good care of mom.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My sister has been in Evergreen Care Home for the last six months. She is very well looked after by all the staff. Nothing is too much trouble for them. Every time I go she is always fresh and clean. She has her hair and nails done weekly. The staff are always around to see to her needs. She has been
confused quite a bit in the last month. She is always treated with kindness and patience. I would recommend this home to anyone who has a relative who needs a caring family home.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My aunt has been a resident for over six months and is very settled. Physically she has improved and now is in good health. My only worry is that she will survive her funds. While the cost seems high, in reality, it is not more than other homes. I do not manage to visit often but in the meantime, I
have no worries about her good care. Any concerns are reported to me immediately.
Reply from Dave Thompson, Owner at Abbey Court Care
Thank you for your excellent review of Evergreen, acknowledging the quality of service we always provide. We are glad your aunt has settled well.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have, from first arriving at this home, always felt/feel comfortable. The staff are approachable, friendly and very caring toward the residents.
The home is very well presented, extremely clean, food is very appetising and well presented. When my friend first came here I didn't think she would settle.
I am very happy to say not only has she settled but is also very happy.
I put this down to the care she receives from all here.

Review from Susan S (Daughter of Resident) published on 10 July 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother was discharged from hospital with 24 hours notice before the May Day Bank Holiday. However, following her return home, she fell again so the family concluded from that emergency respite care was required immediately.
Following a number of internet searches, we contacted "Evergreen". They
came to our rescue and were almost immediately able to place Mom in their care home.


"Evergreen" is a small "homely" care home with a warm welcoming atmosphere. Staff are kind, caring and professional. Residents are encouraged to spend time together, meals are home cooked and served in a large orangery overlooking the garden and terrace, popular occasions are celebrated ie: Royal Wedding/Easter/Ascot etc. Mom's bedroom is light, airy and smartly decorated with en-suite facilities.


Mom has settled in well - her mobility has improved, together with her appetite and general well being. The family are very happy for her to become a permanent resident.

To move to a care home after living in her house for more than 60 years was a giant step for my mother, who is also registered blind. The care and attention given to her here are amazing. She has settled down very well and is enjoying the company of other residents and staff. It is homely and comforting
and I can now have peace of mind that she is safe and being looked after, and I can sleep at night!!

My relative seems happy and settled. She enjoys the parties and singing. She is always presentable in her own clothes that she has chosen to wear.


Visitors are made welcome and offered a cup of tea or coffee.
Good food is served in the conservatory/dining room. There is a pretty patio to sit on

when the weather is fine.

Evergreen caters to my mother's needs with dignity, integrity and understanding.


There are various activities throughout the year which helps the residents to remain mobile and engaged. The regular visits by the hairdresser etc also ensure the residents can be treated/pampered in a safe environment.

The staff are extremely polite, helpful and understanding. They are also approachable and will always try and assist with concerns or issues residents' relatives may have. I have found the management team to be very resourceful in assisting me with regarding financial and care funding matters.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (10.000)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (10.000) out of 10 for Abbey Court Care is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 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 5.000 for Abbey Court Care is calculated as follows: ( (132 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 132 Ratings = 5
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Abbey Court Care is based on 11 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 + 0.1 = 4
    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 24 registered maximum number of service users is 4.8, which has been reached with 11 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.
