Feel that the home provides a safe and secure home for my mum. The staff seem professional and friendly (most of the time). Have dealt with concerns raised immediately and positively. Mum enjoys the activities put on but needs to be encouraged to go outside more.

When I visited Warmere Court for the first time, I was made most welcome by the management and care staff. The manager got a young lady to show around Warmere Court and the room our daughter would be staying in. I told my wife that she was going to be well looked after. From the first day she moved
in, she took to the management and all the staff, she has since told us nothing is a problem for them in all the care she needs. In fact, when she comes out with us after lunch with Mum and Dad she says you can take me home to Warmere, that's my home now. So we know she is very happy and content.

Reply from Mary Latter, Home manager at Warmere Court

Thank you for your lovely review. We are so glad that your daughter has settled in well. Here at Warmere Court, we take pride in making sure all residents and service users feel welcome and we are pleased to hear that this has been the case for your daughter. Thanks again for your kind words.

Being our first experience with a care home, we were filled with trepidation as you hear of some awful experiences. We can honestly say our dear mum has received the best care possible at Warmere Court.
The wonderful staff are the loveliest of people, who all have the right balance of professionalism
and compassion you could possibly wish for your loved one. To do such a demanding, emotional job takes a very gifted person and we're blessed to have them! To you all at Warmere Court, we thank you for making Mum feel safe and for giving us peace of mind while she was in your care.

My mother-in-law came to Warmere Court after having a stroke. She had been moved from hospital to an NHS-funded room until a placement was found. Since arriving the staff have been really attentive and considerate to all her needs. Since she has arrived she has calmed down a lot and we believe it's
in response to the amazing and thoughtful care she receives from all the staff. Whenever we visit we are always greeted by staff and they like to chat about my mother-in-law and give any updates they feel we'd like to hear. I am so pleased we got a place for her at Warmere Court.

The care home does really well with the staff that it has, I wish there were more. My mum has a requirement for certain foods which I provide, however, I wish the staff would advise me when they run out - it does not always happen. Overall, I am satisfied with the care that my mum receives.

I came for respite while my partner (and carer) had an op that was cancelled. The staff have been very supportive and understanding of my desire to get home but disappointment over the cancelled op. I stayed the weekend because my care company couldn't get my care plan in place immediately.
I've enjoyed
my stay, forgot the disappointment over his op and enjoyed a 'holibobs'.
The staff have shown me kindness and patience and importantly I've felt confident in their ability to fulfil my needs. All staff from cleaners to manager, nursing, care staff and the chef have my respect for their work ethos. They're all kind, funny, hardworking, patient, conscientious and compassionate. Did I mention funny?
Then there's Charlie. She's fun too. Loves head strokes, sunflower seeds and biting fingers! (Parrots like fingers).
I'll have to go into respite again when he has his op. If I go anywhere other than here, I'll be always saying "they don't do it like that at Warmere!"

Warmere is still my home away from home, and I love it here. The care is always second to none and I have a great connection with staff. The home has supported me and everyone through Covid and have been great. The food is delicious and varied. There is always plenty to do with activities and experiences.
The home is a happy and warm place to live, I couldn't be happier here. e

Would be good to be able to read a clear name badge on staff. Generally happy with my stay, however, nowhere quite like home! Made to feel welcome, the care team were kind and attentive. The chef was excellent, I always enjoyed chatting with him. I enjoyed the organised activities like singing and scrabble.
Enjoyed having my hair done. Pleasant garden, however, needs some TLC.

My aunt has just become a resident at Warmere Court. We have just begun our visits but on every occasion we get a lovely welcome from the warm and friendly staff. They also provide us with all the latest information we might need. My aunt is very happy and always mentions how nice the staff are who
no doubt will go all out to make each individual resident happy and my aunt looks better every time we visit. Thank you Warmere Court.

I'm extremely pleased with the care home. My nanna has been here for over four years and she is very happy. Throughout COVID, she has been extremely well cared for and very well looked after both mentally and physically. Despite not being able to visit her, the staff have done everything they can to keep
us and everyone in touch. The staff honestly have been amazing throughout covid, even at the cost of their own health mentally and physically. Thank you so much for everything.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.823)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.823) out of 10 for Warmere Court is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.823 for Warmere Court is calculated as follows: ( (193 Excellents x 5) + (37 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 232 Ratings = 4.823

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Warmere Court is based on 20 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 40 registered maximum number of service users is 8, which has been reached with 20 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

Working 3 days a week, Monday, Tuesday & Friday suits me and the role really well.
