I cannot fault Warmere day care centre, they are brilliant, the staff and management are caring, dedicated and excellent. My father has been attending the day care centre for nearly 10 years and it is his second home. If there was an Oscar for day care centres I would recommend them. I don't think my
father would be here today if it wasn't for the care and professionalism that he receives for them. Thank you and God bless you all.

My mum has been at Warmere Court for year or so now, and all I can say is the place is amazing, the staff are caring, passionate, and full of compassion.
Knowing my mum is cared for and every need is met makes it easier to accept.
The home is homely and soon as you enter you are greeted with a cheery
hello and smile from admin, and the manager is approachable and always around the home talking everyone. Warmere has a fun group of staff who seem to be always trying to find new ideas to help raise funds to treat their residents.
Just recently they have put in new menus and the home cooking smells amazing and looks yummy.
Warmere Court care home is one of a kind and I'm over the moon we chose here for mum.

My father attends daycare facilities two days a week and will also come for ad-hoc respite. He has been for some time now. This has made a difference to my dad, and he really does enjoy his days at Warmere. The staff are so lovely and really try so hard to motivate my dad and get him interested in different
things. They put a lot of effort into ensuring that he has plenty to do and is occupied and happy.
Recently my mother was taken ill and needed to go into hospital urgently. I live about an hour away and have young children, so struggle to 'drop everything' and step in. I called the staff at Warmere as I wasn't sure what else to do, I didn't even have the details of my father's social worker so hoped they could help or at least point me in the right direction. I know I am not allowed to name members of staff here, but one lady, in particular, was so so helpful and I would say that she really went above and beyond to help my family and me, getting my dad collected and into respite asap.

Mum recently stayed in Warmere for a weeks respite. Staff know her well as she regularly attends the day centre. Mum is a frequent faller and has become frail and disorientated. They listened and acknowledged our concerns with regards to falling. All the staff went over and above to ensure that this
did not happen and for this, we are really grateful. Thank you!

Warmere Court is a warm and friendly home with a garden-themed corridor and when you enter the home you are made to feel welcome with greetings from staff from manager to carer to domestic, on occasions I've asked for assistance with my client and no job has been too much for the staff. Warmere Court
care offers the highest standard of care and I feel that anyone that uses their services is safe and treated with respect. Warmere passes the mum test for me in every way possible, they have fun-packed entertainers and even had lamas visit, and they display a wish tree on their wall which I find amazing to have that one wish fulfilled. The day centre staff have been amazing with helping care for my client.

All excellent, hands-on staff are very caring and kind. The only observation I would make is that the management are a bit detached but would recommend this home to anyone.
The staff go the extra mile in making patients' stay very pleasant and are all cheerful and helpful.

My mum moved here at the age of 89. The care she gets is of a very high standard, and importantly for me, my mum is very happy and settled here. The staff encourage independence but are there with a steady arm if it's needed. The food is very nice, there is always a choice. My mum is washed every morning,
dressed and presented to the table for a good breakfast, which is a good start to the day. Mum enjoys the gardening club along with the Friday film and skittles monthly which has won. My mum has access to a weekly hairdresser and a chiropodist every 6 weeks. I think it's important to give encouragement in the form of quizzes which the residents partake in. There is a well-kept garden which is used on the warmer days. If you nod off in your chair don't be surprised if you open your eyes to alpacas in the lounge!! Warmer Court is full of nice surprises.

My dear friend died in hospital recently after spending over a year on the residential floor of Warmere Court. She loved being at Warmere Court and all the staff made her feel as she were in her own home. She had a lovely bright room with her own bathroom, television and direct line telephone (which
was a great advantage).


The staff were all excellent and they made her life very happy. I visited about 3 times a week and was made very welcome by the staff and part of the Warmere Court family.
I cannot recommend it highly enough.

My husband attends daycare weekly. The staff are amazing, he is bathed and returns to me in a good frame of mind. He has speech, hearing, mobility and coordination issues and the staff make immense efforts to find ways for him to really engage in various activities. I can't praise them enough for all
they do for him. He really does benefit in many ways.

My husband has been a visitor to the day centre, part of 2018, most of 2019 to date. He is extremely confused but always seems to be happy to go on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday and on return more stable. He can never relate to me where or what he has been doing but his attitude is so much better.
The staff are "pure magic" in coping with other patients far worse than my husband and there is always a smile and welcome from the staff when they pick up and drop off time during the day. It would certainly be an excellent home to finish one's days.

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.
