Leighton Court Care Home

Nursing and caring staff are outstanding and are very keen to help. The facilities are outstanding and the food is excellent.

When I came into the care home Iw as very ill and could not walk without pain. I also felt very depressed, but the welcome from all the staff was wonderful. I felt a lot better. With the medical and physio treatment, I feel much better. I am very grateful for the care home and all the staff.

There are not enough words to describe my experience here at Leighton Court. From the very first day to the last, extremely wonderful. I entered here barely walking and now I am walking out straight as a die. Everybody connected to Leighton Court should be extremely proud, as proud as me leaving here today. My family sends all their thanks and love.

I arrived traumatised and confused. I have been here a month unfortunately during the Covid-19 restrictions, confined mostly to my room and yet despite that I am sad to be leaving the staff who in their entirety have kept me going with their friendliness and caring. Cares, domestic team, physios have been amazing and supportive.

I had already heard good reviews about Leighton Court so when my mum was transferred there from hospital on respite I was pleased. The nursing staff have been amazing in the care they have given, one in particular, who has taken such good care of my mum, she has fed back to me with any concerns, arranged doctors appointments and other health care professionals, nothing has been too much trouble, she has taken the time to talk to me when I've been upset and worried. I am so grateful to her and the team at Leighton Court.

My mum was in respite here from December to February. We were quite concerned that Mum was not with us, but we need not have worried as she was well looked after. All the staff were a delight and Mum felt safe during her stay there, which was a huge relief to us. The physio team were great and deserve special mention. The social worker was helpful in providing a list for after care. Leighton Court should be very proud of all their team as they are a credit to them. Wishing you all the best for the future with gratitude and appreciation.

I was admitted to the rehab-unit from hospital. In the time I have been here I have made excellent progress entirely due to the outstanding staff, care, good food and encouragement to become mobile again. I have no hesitation in praising all the staff and departments.

Mine and my family's thanks to all.

My experience has been good and I have had support continually all the time from good staff, kind and considerate.

I was extremely poorly when I came to Leighton Court they have looked after me well and I am going home back to doing what I did before coming here.

A wonderful experience. Good food and service. All staff are happy and willing to do anything I ask.

I think this place is ideal. Very comfortable and the staff are wonderful. No complaints at all.

Wasn't looking forward to coming into a care home but I have been pleasantly surprised. Everyone has been so pleasant and caring. Food has been so very nice and really plentiful. Nothing is too much trouble for everyone, even though they are kept so busy. Thank you all for a very pleasant stay. Will recommend you.

What a treat to come to Leighton Court. Everyone is treated like human beings. The nurses are very busy but always have a few minutes to spare.

Clean home with good service including night time. Prompt attention to any request for help.

Staff under pressure not to comment to family members, but I would love to know exactly what my mother had done that day. Incontinent, walking, washing herself all needs help. At times you can explain and help the staff, in many cases. I had to keep asking as my mum kept saying she had done everything when she hadn't. Tiny toilets in rooms. Poor staff helping with washes.

Thank you for looking after me for 13 weeks. Food was very nice and lots of it. Some rooms need updating but all are very clean. Cleaners are always busy keeping everywhere tidy. I liked the staff, they were all nice and wanted to keep me safe and well looked after.

Overall the experience was better than staying in the hospital.

Physio on the whole very good and he knew his stuff. However, I missed one full week's physio, although a plausible explanation was given.

We cannot fault the care and treatment our aunt received at Leighton Court. All staff at every level were always helpful, considerate and extremely sympathetic with her. We would not hesitate in recommending Leighton Court to our friends and family.
