Skirbeck Court

Staff are always pleasant and approachable.

Made very welcome. Treated with respect by very friendly staff. Mum settled and happy and looked after as if it was her own home.

Everyone is so kind and friendly with a lovely warm atmosphere in the home.

We always find it a happy place and staff engage well with residents and visitors. Management are ready to listen to any concerns and will resolve any misunderstandings, reassure the residents and with genuine care and concern, sit and explain things. There appears to be a managed plan for refurbishment.

We never ever thought we would have to put our father into a care home, and it is one of the hardest things we have ever had to do. The Head carer came to assess my father. She was smart, professional and warm (as the home turned out to be.) She talked to my father, not about him - this impressed us immensely. She also comforted my mother. We were so pleased dad was accepted and have not changed our minds one little bit. The staff are friendly and polite to residents, respecting their dignity and also visitors. Mum can join in with activities or have meals when she is there, so she does not feel she has lost Dad. Most important of all, they genuinely care for and give care to my father, whilst still making him as independent as possible. There is a feeling of camaraderie about the place, The building itself is inviting, walls displaying residents' achievements, plenty of photographs. The food is varied, good and plentiful. AND they serve the best fish and chips in town!

Prior to this her previous 2 years were excellent and she was a very happy lady.

Always the staff helpful and friendly. They provide lovely meals and plenty of things to do I.e. church service, skittles, bingo, games etc.

I cannot fault the care given to my mum throughout her short stay at Skirbeck Court. She very sadly passed away but all the staff gave 100% nothing was too much trouble. They also found time in their busy day to take time to answer any questions or worries we had. I have no hesitation in recommending this care home to anybody, I had previously been very wary of care homes but I would advise anybody to go and see for yourself that this is a very good one and I am extremely grateful to them.

My uncle moved into Skirbeck Court a couple of months ago. Since he's been there I have been very impressed by absolutely everything. The building, layout, décor etc are second to none. The quality of care is outstanding, nothing is too much trouble. My uncle has settled in very well, you would of thought he'd been there years. The events and activities that are put on, are so varied and frequent. The way in which Skirbeck court was decorated at Christmas was just stunning. I would certainly recommend Skirbeck Court to anyone and thank them for everything whole heartedly. Like it was recommended to us.

Very happy to leave my mum in their care, nice atmosphere.

My husband was ill and discharged from hospital. The objective of his three week stay at Skirbeck was to improve his mental and physical health with care he received. I was very grateful for the help advice and care given to me as his wife/carer. I was in a very distressed state with the situation. The managers particularly were there and aware of my needs also. Nothing was too much trouble to all the grades of carers.

I find my day care experiences very good. I cant fault anything, staff very helpful and friendly. Food excellent

Home and staff are very obliging and helpful. I would have no hesitation in recommending the home.

I can only recommend the staff at Skirbeck Court, they are attentive and caring and I have also had support and advice when my mother has had difficult times. The rooms are a little dated but since the new manager has taken over the place has been getting a well deserved face lift. I can only give them a 10 out of 10 and would recommend them to anyone looking for a care home for a relative.

I was very impressed with the care taken when my mum fell in the home and broke her arm. Unfortunately I was on holiday at the time but the care home notified my daughter of the situation. The care home took responsibility of contacting doctors, arranging transport and assistance to the local hospital as well as extra care on returning back to the nursing home regarding dressing and feeding.

I have been here for 4 years and very happy. If I had stayed at home I would have no longer been alive. Best care home in Boston.

My mother has been in care for 6 years and has been cared for very well. Staff very good. It's a home from home. I was at first very sad for her to come but now more than happy that she is here. The best care home in Boston.

I find no problems at all with my mothers care. The home is well organised and staff very helpful. Excellent. My mother is very settled compared to her previous care home, this is a palace.
