My mother's last few years have been spent receiving care with compassion and kindness. In the last few years of her life, she experienced peace and genuine love from staff. I would like to highlight Lyn as an exemplary model of compassionate care, friendliness and commitment to those she cares for - including my mother - who died knowing she was loved.
Mum recieved excelent care; her life was saved more than once, at Avon Court. She later recieved palliative care and a dignified death. We have nothing but praise for all members of staff, we can not fault them. Everyone there knew who she was and who we were without consulting paperwork as it...
Mum recieved excelent care; her life was saved more than once, at Avon Court. She later recieved palliative care and a dignified death. We have nothing but praise for all members of staff, we can not fault them. Everyone there knew who she was and who we were without consulting paperwork as it would have been if she had stayed in the hospital. We would recomend Avon Court to anyone.
Thank you so much for the compliment on behalf of Avon Court. Your Mum was part of the Avon Court family and will be truly missed. Thank you and your family/friends for your patience and understanding whenever you where in Avon Court.

My aunt has recently moved into Avon Court, and this was our first time of visiting. We were immediately impressed by the warmth of the staff and the homely atmosphere. We arrived just as my aunt was about to have lunch, and we were taken to see her in the dining room, which was laid out like a proper restaurant - a lovely touch. The staff were actively engaging with her, getting her more involved with the other residents and activities. They were extremely attentive to her needs and very welcoming towards us.

The welcome when we arrived was warm and the staff member knew where my aunt was and what she was doing. The staff were very kind and caring to the resident as well as being very helpful to us - the visitors! A great 1st impression!

The staff were fantastic, helping him move, nothing was too much trouble, and we all got him settled fairly quickly.
After several weeks, he is much happier in his new room, interacting and being a lot more mobile. It was a decision well made. A big thank you to everyone who helped that day, you made us all very happy. We chose Avon Court to look after dad.
A very warm and welcoming home and very friendly staff. We have been here today to see mum, and there was a wonderful 'sing a long' time / Carpenters singer which my mum enjoyed very much.

A very warm and welcoming home and very friendly staff. We have been here today to see mum, and there was a wonderful 'sing a long' time / Carpenters singer which my mum enjoyed very much. My mum seems very happy here and enjoys the activities very much. A huge thank you to all the staff for their care and concern. Perhaps my mums room could do with a redecoration as it is a bit tired. But as I say, a lovely, welcoming home for my mum to be in.

I had a great time singing along with a Carpenters tribute today with grandma which was great fun! I can tell the residents here are very well looked after!

We always find the staff friendly, welcoming and caring. The activities are really good and varied. The activities coordinator does her best to plan a varied programme. We had a Carpenters tribute this afternoon and the singer was brilliant - very engaging and lovely with the residents, really encouraging them to participate. The resident really enjoyed it, and we felt very welcome and included. The staff obviously know and genuinely care about the residents - you can tell this by the way they interact.
However, after 4 weeks she talked about it in glowing terms. The staff! lovely and really friendly, all so helpful and kind.
The food was good and she had a serious appetite for her age.

My mother has received excellent care at Avon Court. The liaison between the nursing staff and the GP has been proactive and very good. The quality of food is excellent - my mother has always said the meals are very good and usually clears her plate! Avon Court can show excellent attention to detail. On my mothers birthday staff decorated her room and presented a special cake and sang "Happy Birthday". Really appreciated by her and all the family.

I was delighted on my father's birthday. The staff put on as short notice an impromptu celebration with cake, which made his day. Very many thanks.
