Overall Experience
My wife came to the home in November 2022 and since her arrival at Lavender Court, I have been very impressed with the care, support and professionalism of the staff. The home is well-run and comfortable and the only minor criticism is that some areas could do with a lick of paint.

Overall Experience
I am very happy with the care my nan is receiving here. she has only been here for a few weeks but I am very happy with the care and attention provided. She is settling in well and mixing with other residents. The nurses and other staff show her respect and dignity with her dementia and help when asked. I am happy she is at Lavender Court.

The care that they have given my father has been brilliant and the staff are helpful with our queries.

The staff are always welcoming. The kitchen staff come and ask what Mom likes for her meals and what her favourite foods are. Anything I ask re: medications etc are dealt with in a very professional way and if I have any problem they are quickly dealt with.

My mom moved into Lavender Court in January and was welcomed with open arms. When we speak to her on a video call we can see how happy she is as she is always smiling and laughing. She enjoys doing the art activities and is always chatting to the staff who look after her.

Review from Sarah P (Daughter of Resident) published on 12 February 2021 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
I am very pleased with the care given to my mother, who has dementia, at Lavender Court and has been a resident there for two years now. The staff are always friendly and helpful and always keep me informed of my mother's health and needs. This is the fourth care home that my mother has lived in and by far the best, for her.

Review from Clarence C (Son of Resident) published on 9 February 2021 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
Since being at Lavender Court, Dad’s been happy and very contented. He talks about being well looked after and has never complained. As a family, we’re also pleased with his progress. There appears to be a good level of service and supervision by the staff. They keep us informed. The main drawback is not being able to visit him, but this is due to the Covid-19 restrictions, which we hope will change soon. We can’t comment on the facilities, activities or the rooms, as we’ve not been able to see them at present.

Review from Tracy A (Daughter of Resident) published on 1 February 2021 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
My mom came to live here in January 2020, she has dementia and could no longer manage without full-time care. I feel my mom is getting very good care here. The facilities are good and the place is very clean, her room is a good size and is on the ground floor with a toilet.
My mom always looks lovely and clean and the staff always ring us when anything concerning her happens, such as a doctors visit or a change in medication. This is a very good care home and I would thoroughly recommend it to anyone looking for a place for a loved one.
