Coniston Court

My father has been at the home for two and a half years. He settled in really well which was a worry to begin with. The staff are welcoming and have always been available for a chat and update. During the Covid-19 pandemic they have arranged Whatsapp calls for myself and sister with my dad, which had been reassuring during this period. The home has a good reputation locally, and friends who have visited, have commented on the good vibes at the home.

We’re very happy to have him there. Excellent.

My husband was in the home from 24th April 2014 and died in his room on 27th September 2019. He was looked after by all the staff extremely well.

During the month of August, my mother became very ill with a chest infection. The care and treatment given were of a high standard and it was quickly recognised that my mother was not improving and would need hospital admission. My mother on returning to the care home was efficiently cared for by all staff. My mother is now feeling a lot better and to being out of her room and moving around.

My mother is happy and well looked after. There are plenty of helpful staff around if you need anything, they are happy to help. When we had a party for my dad's 80th, the home provided transport and a carer so that she could join us. They are wonderful and caring.

The staff are very polite and there are good vibes when you walk in the front door.

Any concerns regarding mum's health were picked up and acted upon straight away. I would have no hesitation with recommending this care home.

We were very pleased with the care my mother is receiving. The home is always clean. The carers and nurses are attentive and kind. There is regular entertainment in the lounge. The activity staff are very good at keeping a cheerful atmosphere going and even had some of the residents up on their feet dancing at the Haloween party. The manager is very friendly and approachable and has a hands-on attitude, which benefits the home. My mother is very happily settled.

I can highly recommend this care home. All members of staff are truly dedicated to the wellbeing and safety of those in their care. Nothing is too much trouble. As soon as you enter the home you feel the genuine warmth and notice staff intermingling with the residents in the lounge. Activities every am and afternoon. No effort spared to ensure all have a good time, especially on special festival yearly dates. For me personally, it was the hardest decisions to make concerning my husband (together 58 years) to go into residential care. I cannot thank all the staff enough who make it feel like a large happy safe family home. I can now sleep at night without any worries knowing my husband is in good hands. If he is unwell he will have the best nursing care.

It is thanks to the team at the home that Mum's condition has been stable for so long.

The nurses will keep you updated on all medication, blood tests and results.

My mother became a resident when her care home could no longer meet her needs. My initial impression of the nursing home was very positive. As I got to know the manager and staff, I appreciated more fully how lucky I had been to secure a place for mum. Her room was comfortable, bright and cheerful. Every time I visited, she looked clean and very well cared for. Her medical needs were assessed and optimum management put in place. For the first time in many months she smiled and, whilst she didn't join in any activities due to her advanced dementia, she was certainly enriched by the warm and happy atmosphere in the communal areas. The staff are all highly professional and treat the residents with respect and kindness. Mum was only at the home for six weeks but her end of life care was faultless and I was encouraged to stay with her for as long as I wanted with countless offers of tea and biscuits. If I ever need nursing care, this would be my first choice.

She stated she was cared for and I do hope that the home continues with high standards.

It is a fabulous retirement home and I recommend the home highly. I cannot thank them enough for looking after my mum so well and caring for her so well.

I would definitely recommend this care home to anyone who has a family member who has dementia to go there. They are very caring, supportive, helpful and the staff are very wonderful with the residents. It's clean and very tidy, it's got a very good atmosphere about the place. It also has a lot of activities which the residents can get involved in.
