My sister moved into Barnston Court on 22 January. The staff all ensured they introduced themselves and got to know my sister. They have made her feel welcome and have also been welcoming to me. My sister has settled in well and I have peace of mind knowing she is being well cared for.

Thank you very much for your review. It is appreciated. Kind regards
My dad moved here from another home and settled in quickly. He is well looked after by the staff who are just lovely with him. You can tell the other residents also love the staff as I often hear them say they 'love them' the staff show love and affection to the residents with hugs and cuddles and it is very calm and settled in the resident lounge. My dad always said 'don't put me in a home' but circumstances changed this and although at first I did feel guilty, I know now he's getting the best treatment and attention to his needs. I can't praise the staff enough for putting my peace at mind.
Thank you very much for your review of Barnston Court, it is appreciated. Kind regards
The home was consistently cared for my husband really well. We were worried when he had to go into care. However, the kindness and warmth to my husband has been a relief to us as family. He has been kept safe, treated with dignity and looked after to a high standard of care. End of life care was, excellent, kind and supportive also for family. Planning and working with GP and family was excellent too. Thank you always.

Barnston Court has been my father’s new home since September of last year when my father left a difficult three-month hospital stay to come to Barnston Court. We had to make a quick decision at the time, but we are very happy with every aspect of the care he is receiving. The care team at Barnston Court are kind, conscientious, and communicative.
