My husband was admitted to Charters Court care home in September 2023, he has Alzheimer's. As a family, it was a very difficult decision to make, but we know he is being cared for so well. The staff are so kind and friendly and we are so grateful to them. I must really mention the amazing Wellbeing
team who organise wonderful activities for the residents, organising regular musicians, singers, magicians and even small animals that visit, and also the residents are taken on outings in the mini-bus to garden centres etc, this gives so much pleasure. This year my husband and I celebrated our Diamond wedding anniversary (60 years) and after mentioning this, my husband's room was decorated with balloons etc and we had a lovely cake that we were able to cut together, which meant so much. The food is of a very high standard and cleanliness is excellent. As a family we are so pleased that my husband is at Charters Court, we know that he is safe and sound.

I was very concerned when mum went into a home. Charters Court Care Home is mum's home now and she is much happier. Everyone is so lovely, she always seems to be doing one activity or another. I was able to join mum in the zumba class, we had such a good time bumping into each other.

My mother has Alzheimer's and has been living at Charters Court Care Home for almost 6 years now. I cannot express enough my gratitude to the staff and managers at Charters. Their care for my mother is second to none. Mum feels safe and secure. I feel extremely comforted at their level of competence,
implementation of standard operating procedures, and regular communication (I live overseas).
Additional care is needed for my mother by way of covert medication, assistance with eating/drinking, toileting and now walking. Nothing is too much trouble for any of the staff at Charters Court. I have personally observed the staff on mum's ward to be very kind and caring. I have known the deputy manager (current acting manager) for several years now. She is dedicated, experienced, kind and compassionate. This culture flows through to everyone.
Choosing somewhere for mum to live was very stressful. I consider us to be very fortunate and privileged that mum resides at Charters Court. Highly recommend.

Review from A V (Daughter of Resident) published on 3 January 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 2.0 out of 5
My father has been a resident for more than 5 years and the other reviews I read about Charters Court seem so very different from my own personal experience. While there have been and remain a few truly amazing staff over the years, our experience with management is that they are anything but kind and
caring. The care my father has received has fallen short on multiple occasions, but recently it has deteriorated significantly. With the on site managerial role open now for several weeks, it seems that processes are slipping. As a very recent example, my father was left in his room, on his own for Christmas Day, while other residents were treated to an enjoyable lunch, he was left in his bed - he is wheelchair bound and non verbal. Imagine our distress to learn this is how our Father spent his Christmas day! I cannot therefore, in good conscience recommend this home.

My mother has late onset dementia. She has lived in the care home for two years now. She has received loving care since the day she arrived. She feels safe which is a great help for me and my family.
Mum now needs help with eating and this is done with care, calmly and with patience.
All the staff
are very friendly from the receptionists to the nurses.
My father was also very pleased to see how settled mum is and he often commented about the exceptional care mum received. My father lived nearby and visited mum every day until he died earlier this year.
When visiting, I am always made to feel welcome and I do appreciate my cup of tea.

My father in law had the best care and attention that I could have wished for during the 16 months that he resided on Willow Suite.
Every single member of the staff were wonderful and really cared about him and his well-being.
I seriously can't thank them all enough or praise them more for their
genuine concern and desire for his best interest. Your patience and care was so much appreciated.
Thank you all

Review from Karen J (Friend of Resident) published on 4 September 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Charters Court has so many qualities that other care homes lack. Management runs a solid team of staff which makes the home run efficiently. Staff take into account the residents needs and do their best to make them feel cared for and at home. The reception staff are always smiling, very friendly and
approachable.
The food is first class, running a 3 course menu plus the staff adapt to the residents needs where necessary. The rooms and communal areas are spotless and bright with great furnishings. Such a pleasant environment.
There are daily activities for residents to attend or even take the mini bus into town.
I can't fault Charters in any way and would highly recommend this care home.

There is a huge range of fun activities constantly taking place and the food is home-cooked and always delicious. The admin and reception team are helpful and
the laundry is always clean and fragrant.

My mother has been through 3 months of hospital wards and now she is happy and well in Charters Court. She has been extremely well looked after by all the staff.
My mother is much healthier now and is coming to terms with the fact of living in a care home. Charters Court is a lovely place and the staff
are caring and very good at their job. They are all very nice people. My mother could not be in a better place

My Mother suffers from dementia and has been in the home for 2 years. The staff is extremely kind and caring to my Mother. We visit her every day and are always made very welcome. We've been given good advice for caring for her. We are grateful for the help they gave us in arranging liquid food supplements
and liquid medicine rather than pills she had difficulty with. There is an excellent and imaginative well-being team and the carers engage with and lift the spirits of residents above and beyond their routine caring. The management is also very responsive in listening to residents and relatives at regular meetings fixing and improving things.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The staff at Charters Court took care of our mother (aged 97) for 7 weeks, from early February to the end of March when she passed away.
My sister and I found that everyone from the receptionist on our first visit to view the home, to the suite manager and team who did the day-to-day care were excellent:
calm, reassuring, sensitive, friendly but professional. Even the 'backstage' team (admin, maintenance, cleaning, kitchen etc) were lovely whenever we met them.
We felt 100% confident that the staff were experienced, courteous and above all caring in their dealings with our mother in her failing last few weeks. And they were very welcoming and accommodating to us and others who visited. And very supportive and sympathetic to us all (including 2 brothers on video call from the US and Canada) as we spent much of the last 24 hours with Mum.
Many, many thanks to everyone at Charters Court!

The Staff and management are very supportive and caring to ensure that the needs of both our Mother and stepfather are met. They have on several occasions gone out of their way to meet individual requests made by my Mum. Although my stepfather and Mother do not participate in many of the social activities
- there is a wide range of choices and activities available. When visiting, the home has a “friendly family feel to it “.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.825)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.825) out of 10 for Charters Court Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 45 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 44 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.825 for Charters Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (445 Excellents x 5) + (73 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 525 Ratings = 4.825
  2. 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 Charters Court Care Home is based on 44 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 20 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 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 4
    2. 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 44 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
