I was very happy with my fathers care whilst at Elvy court, especially with the fantastic staff who cared for him, they were extremely helpful and very patient and always treated him like a guest rather than a resident. The food was also well presented and according to him very flavoursome, his room was always spotlessly clean as were the communal areas, I particularly like the family room that had a wonderful coffee machine and some cakes and biscuits available. I would highly recommend Elvy court to anyone looking for a home where their loved ones can be happy, safe and well cared for.

I have ticked excellent on all questions as I cannot find fault with anything. The staff and management will do anything for you. The food is very goof and a good selection. The nurses and carers change and turn my wife regularly so she is comfortable and is settled in the home.

My mother has been living at Elvy Court for 3 months. She is always treated with respect and kindness by all of the staff. The overall atmosphere at Elvy Court is calm and peaceful and this has helped my mother to settle in very well. There are activities offered that my mother can choose to participate in as she wishes. She has enjoyed going into the garden and joining in singing when an entertainer came to the home. My mother enjoys the meals provided at Elvy Court and she has found an appetite that she did not have when she lived in her own home. She is encouraged to sit with other residents in the day but she can choose to be in her room or sleep as she wishes. My mother has help with washing and dressing and is always clean and tidy when I visit. Her mobility was poor before living at Elvy Court but it has improved greatly. The staff are always friendly and helpful to myself and my family. We can visit any time and we feel welcome.

Our relative is happy in the home. She enjoys the food and the staff are good at feeding her. A couple of times we have been disappointed with the cleanliness of the room. On one occasion we asked a member of staff to arrange for the carpet to be hoovered and the tables to be wiped. We were disappointed that the video meeting with KCC was held in the room with the resident present. The nurse attending the meeting did not seem fully aware of the needs of the resident. We had to correct these points. The staff generally are very kind, friendly and helpful.

I am so happy that mum is living in Elvy Court. She is happy there and that means a lot. I cannot fault the staff in all areas. I feel I can approach any member of staff with any concerns I have (not many) and they are dealt with.

Expecting her stay to be of short duration, the fact that she is still with us 4 months later is in part due to the very good care and attention she has received from the staff. Nothing is too much trouble and any minor issues that have arisen, have all been dealt with immediately.
The staff are always available so any worries or concerns can be discussed and quickly resolved.

My mother-in-law stayed for 2 weeks respite. She settled in really quickly and easily. The staff and management are so friendly. We really were not sure if we were doing the right thing but it definitely was. I would highly recommend them and will be using them again. Thank you so much to all.
