Connell Court

I had a very pleasant stay at Connell Court. The staff (are) were very pleasant, kind and caring. The food was always adequate and tasty. The staff without exception were excellent. I would not hesitate to go there again. The clientele were always pleasant to talk to and the activities enjoyable. I would certainly not hesitate to go again.

My mum moved from her previous carehome to Connell Court 6 weeks ago. She has settled well and seems to be enjoying the activities on offer and the choice and quality of her meals. She always appears well cared for and the staff seem lovely with her.

The home ensures that all it's residents have the best quality of life in their final years.

I will be forever grateful to Head of Home Ms. Harvey along with her management team Jenny and Mark plus the entire Connell Court team.

Thanks to all the staff who do difficult work all the time but step up even more when times are difficult!

My mother lived at Connell Court for the best part of three years. I found the care and attention she received to be superb. Although I could not attend as much as my siblings due the distances involved, I spoke to my mum at least once a week. She always had good things to say about the home and staff. In fact, many times during a videocall she was asked by members of staff if she wanted tea, coffee or any refreshments which was lovely to witness.

Sadly, my mum passed in November. The staff at Connel Court couldn't have been better. I stayed the night in a room close by to my mum and lost count of the times I was offered refreshments! During my mother's last hours, the staff were so supportive but at the same time professional and dignified. Thank you so much for making a difficult time easier and for looking after our mum so well.

Thank you all so much for looking after my mum with such loving care.

Thank you all .

My friend lived at Connell Court for about two and a half years and in that time he had a new lease of life at a stage when he did not expect it! The team at Connell Court provided a new home for him at a crucial time in his life. They were warm, caring, professional and always went the extra mile to look after him. He was able to make new friends, live in a safe environment and have all his needs met and it made a huge difference to my friend's life. There were trips out, social activities, no national day/feast day or occasion goes by unmarked without a celebration of some kind! Residents can choose how involved to get, with their own space to retreat to if needed. The home is well organised, well maintained, homely and comfortable. All the team were friendly, professional and supportive and during my friend's final weeks they could not have been more caring and supportive to him, me and my family. I would highly recommend this care home.

Mum always referred to Connell Court as 'home', and repeatedly told all the family that she was so lucky to be there. All members of the staff, from every department in the care home, treated my mum with love and respect. When she passed away, the carers were as sad as we were! I feel that the staff at Connell Court always tried to go the extra mile to help residents feel they are part of a big family. I would happily recommend this home to anyone worrying about entrusting their loved ones to full time care. It was reassuring to know that mum was being cared for even when we weren't able to be there with her. Thank you all!

Dad has been in Connell Court for respite care a couple of times and enjoyed his stay so they helped him make the decision to move in as a permanent resident. He's settled in very well and is receiving excellent care in a lovely environment. Top class residential care. Thank you.

Staff throughout are friendly, efficient, caring and supportive at all times. My relative does not have one complaint. She is happy and knows that she is in a safe, caring environment. Any health issues are dealt with immediately. We are kept informed. First rate activities on a regular basis, as is the decorations when celebrating an occasion.

Very welcoming, staff are friendly and very approachable. needs of relative always met, relative is happy and feels comfortable living at Connell Court, and also praises staff regularly. Activities and decorations are always really good and well thought through. Good communication from staff.

Cannot recommend Connell Court highly enough

My father came in for respite care. He has been really well looked after. He has made bonds with fellow residents and us very happy here. The home has a "homely" atmosphere, and the rooms are lovely. My father loves the home-cooked food and enjoys participating in the activities.

It was such a warm, friendly and well organised event. Everybody seemed to be having fun. It was a great opportunity to speak to carers, support staff, acquaintancies and family, in a warm and friendly environment. It just adds to my belief that Dad is being really well looked after, stimulated and encouraged in all he does under the exceptional care that Connell Court provides.

There are open events held frequently throughout the year as well as the opportunity for people to go out on a coach trip or stay more local when they go out.

I cannot praise the staff highly enough, they work very hard.

My mum as a new resident has settled in extremely well, the staff are lovely and nothing is too much trouble for them. The home is bright and cheerful with a really nice homely atmosphere and very clean too. I can take my mum out for little outings and each time we visit, she always looks well cared for and happy. It is reassuring mum is in safe hands and treated with respect.

My mum came to Connell Court for a period of respite care. She was made to feel welcome and part of the community immediately. Everyone has treated here in a friendly and respectful manner. She was encouraged to participate in the range of activities but also given the space and privacy she needs in her new situation. When asked she said all the staff were helpful and kind. She has also said she is less anxious as there is always someone there to help her if she needs help. Her room is always clean, laundry + personal hygiene of an excellent standard. She has now decided to stay at Connell Court permanently.
