I have had a really good experience in this care home concerning my dad who is 97 years of age. Suffering from severe Dementia and unable to walk. All the care staff and nurses during the 4 weeks assessment have been friendly and caring towards my dad, other residents, as well as myself and my family. This includes friends that have visited my dad too! The care home is very clean, so much so that we as a family hope that my dad can stay in Barnston Court Care Home permanently. Thank you to all the staff for making my dad, family and me so very welcome!
Thank you for taking the time to submit such a wonderful review. It is lovely to hear how well your dad is being cared for and how friendly and welcoming the home is. I will share your lovely comments with the team.
Mum was moved to Barnston Court Care Home in August 2022 after a long stay in the hospital. The staff have been brilliant in caring for mum, making sure she settled in as soon as she arrived. They picked up on a problem with mum and contacted the doctor who calls every week to check all residents which helps the family, knowing that problems are picked up before they get too bad. Staff are always friendly when I visit and are always available to hear any concerns we may have. Can't fault them.
Thank you for your lovely review. It is wonderful to hear how happy you are with the home and how quickly your mum has settled in. I will share your comments with the team.
Mum entered the home on the 20th of August as a temporary resident. The fact that she settled so well says a lot about the staff who run the home. We decided to make this a permanent residency because of the staff and how well the home looks after its residents and also their families.
Thank you for taking the time to submit a review. It is wonderful to hear how happy you are with the home and how well your mum has settled in. I will share your lovely comments with the home.
I feel that Dad is well cared for in Barnston Court. He has a good relationship with all staff, and I am always fully updated with all his care needs and treatments. Staff are friendly and always welcoming.
Thank you for your review. It is lovely to hear how well cared for your dad is at Barnston Court and how friendly and welcoming the team is. I will share your comments with the home.

Thank you for your review. It is lovely to hear how hard the team work, supporting and caring for residents and that their efforts are appreciated. I share your comments with the team.
My mum lived at Barnston Court for six months. she was severely brain damaged and needed 24 hour care/nursing. All staff treated my mum fantastically. They keep her clean and treated her with dignity and respect at all times. I felt extremely comfortable leaving her after visit knowing she was being cared for. Staff also treated myself and family very well.
Thank you for taking the time to complete a review. It is wonderful to receive such lovely feedback about how well your mum was cared for and how comfortable you were leaving her after visiting. I will share your lovely comments with the team.
My partner went into Barnston Court for end-of-life care. Although he was only in for 24 hours the care and attention he received was very good one carer sat with him through the night as his condition worsened. All staff were excellent and it is a comfort to me that he was cared for with respect and dignity.
Thank you for your kind review. We know how hard it is when a loved one needs to move into a care home, particularly for end of life care. We are pleased to hear how well cared for your partner was during his short stay and what a comfort it was to you at such a difficult time. I will share your comments with the team.
Our dad was cared for with the utmost respect and dignity which I would like to thank Barnston Court for personally. After a very short time there he passed away. The staff were wonderful and very caring.
Thank you for your lovely review. We are pleased to hear how well the team cared for and supported your dad. I will pass on your thanks to all the team.
Although he was only there for 24 hours, the dignity and respect were second to none for our (step) dad and our family. His end-of-life care was excellent and he was never in pain or uncomfortable. Rest assured if your loved one goes to Barnston Court Care Home they will receive A1 treatment.
Thank you for taking the time to complete a review for our home. It is lovely to hear how excellent the care your (step) father received in the short space of time he was in the home. I will share your comments with all the team.
The care he received when at Barnston Court Care Home was fantastic whilst looking after other residents. They also made sure we were all ok too, made us feel comfortable at all times - made us tea or coffee, kept popping in to make sure we were ok and especially the resident that was there for end-of-life care. They were caring, respectful and very understanding.
Thank you for your kind review. The home has an excellent reputation in the local area for the care and support it provides residents and their loved ones, particularly those at the end of their life. I will share your lovely comments with all the team.
Staff continue to look after my mother in the best possible way. The care they have given her has been exemplary. She is well looked after.
Thank you for your lovely review. The home prides itself on the excellent care it provides in a homely setting. It is wonderful to hear how well cared for your mum is. I will share your comments with the team.
Our dad was treated with the utmost respect and had the best of care to keep him pain-free and comfortable. He was treated with respect and dignity. The staff were so kind to us during the worst family time we have experienced.
Thank you for your kind review. It is lovely to hear how well cared for your dad was and always treated with dignity and respect during what was a difficult time for all the family. I will share your lovely comments with the team.
The food is great, the room is tired-looking and needs redecorating.
Mum's left in dirty pads so sore underneath. not encouraged to use a bedpan.
Thank you for taking the time to submit a review. We realise how difficult it is for family members when their loved one moves into a care home. We'd like to reassure you that the Manager has an open door policy and is always happy to discuss any concerns you may have, even the option to move your...
My mum has been here for two weeks, and I can't sing the praises enough of the staff who have cared for her; they are so patient, kind and caring towards her. They have been very supportive of our family.
Thank you for your lovely review and kind comments about the team at Barnston Court. I will share your comments with the team.
Caring staff who listen to relatives' concerns. Supportive of relatives. Treat my relative with dignity and respect for who he is/personal circumstances/mental health. I feel reassured he is in an overall safe environment geared to his needs.
Thank you for your review. It is lovely to hear how well cared for your brother is and how supportive the team are at Barnston Court. I will share your comments with the team.
My brother was very happy with the care he received at Barnston Court. He was treated with dignity at all times and was clean-shaven, clean and comfortable. He was the most comfortable he had been in a long time and thought of home and wanted to end his days here rather than go into hospital.
Thank you for your lovely review. It is wonderful to hear how well cared for your brother was at Barnston Court. I will pass your comments on to the home.
Mum was admitted via a fast-track discharge from the hospital at short notice, and as a family, we could not be happier as this was our first placement of choice. The care and support offered to our mum have been excellent, as stated. All the staff are caring and compassionate, and our mum has settled well.
Thank you for your lovely review. It is lovely to hear how well your mum has settled in and how happy you are with the excellent care and support received. I will share your comments with the team.
Always on hand when I phone to see my brother and keeps us informed on his general health. The staff are happy, and so I am happy. They are never far away if my brother needs them.
Mum has been living at Barnston Court since July 2021. She has been very well looked after and cared for by all the staff. All staff are extremely hard working and dedicated to the residents. The home is very well led by the manager and her team. The family are kept well informed, and nothing is too much trouble. Mum has had a number of health-related issues whist she has lived at Barston Court, which have been dealt with quickly, efficiently and kindly, keeping us informed at all times. Throughout Covid, measures have always been in place to prevent cross infections. Family is very happy.
My Aunt has lived at Barnston Court Care Home for just over three and half years and I know she is very happy, safe and well cared for by a friendly dedicated team of staff. She has a lovely room and she tells me the food is excellent. My communication experience with the home is very good, I am contacted if there are any concerns, and if I ring or message them, I always get a speedy response. Barnston Court seems to provide many different activities for the residents and they make super efforts for special events. Everyone went above and beyond to make my Aunt's 100th birthday last year and her 101st birthday last weekend wonderful and memorable occasions. I live quite a distance away so it is nice to feel reassured that my aunt is so well looked after, and in her own words, 'we couldn't have picked a better place for her to live'.
Thank you for your touching review. It is lovely to hear how pleased you and your aunt are with the care provided at Barnston Court and the wonderful and memorable occasions she has celebrated. I will share your comments with all the team.
