Mum came to you 6 weeks ago and the change in her is unbelievable. So happy thank you. It was hard to move her from previous care home but so glad we did. All the staff I have met are lovely and so so helpful. Mums never had anything to complain about. She certainly is enjoying her time with you.

My Mother has been a resident in Bickerton Care Home for several months, myself my husband and family are so happy we have found a wonderful nursing home for her well being. All the staff are friendly, helpful and extremely supportive and kind. They phone us routinely with my mothers care plans. We are incredibly impressed with the daily activities, my Mum has mixed dementia but she has thrived and enjoys taking part with the crafts etc. A fantastic home for your loved one. We would all definitely recommend it.

My husband spent two weeks respite in Bickerton House and said that he immediately felt welcomed and comfortable commenting on good food and friendly helpful staff as well as a very well-appointed room/bathroom. I found the management very helpful in the time leading up to his admission and always available to answer our questions particularly during these difficult covid times. I felt confident that he would be well cared for in a safe environment, and this proved to be the case. We would certainly hope to use the care home again as the need arises.

During these difficult COVID times, I have been impressed by their unwavering adherence to procedure. Everyone feels very safe and looked after.
Thank you, team Bickerton!
My mother is very comfortable in a clean cosy room with television and en-suite facilities. The staff are very helpful when I phone to enquire on her wellbeing, and if they are busy when I telephone a member of staff will always telephone me back with the relevant information. If my mother does not...
Due to these unprecedented times, my mother has had to spend a lot of time in and out of isolation, but the staff have always ensured she has had lots of social interaction. I feel content to know my mother is in a safe and caring environment, where her needs are of the utmost priority. Bickerton House Care Home has excellent facilities, all the staff are friendly and provide very professional care in their respective roles.
Bickerton House is superb. My wife and I were so very impressed by the communication from our initial enquiry until the point of arrival for my mother. From the moment my mother arrived right up until today she is a different person. Initially, my mother just wanted to go home but after a couple of...
We, as a family, could not recommend Bickerton House enough. Anybody who chooses Bickerton House for a family member has no need to worry - they will be in safe, caring and friendly hands and the staff communicate well with family members to keep you abreast of everything your family member is up to.
Brilliant and first-class for everything that they do.
All the...
All the staff are so friendly and welcoming, and there is a wide range of activities arranged for the residents. The home is a very welcoming ambience and we are also greeted warmly. Highly recommend.

A weight had been lifted to how well my stepdad is being cared for - Thank you Bickerton House, you are a blessing!
The building is fantastic - like a hotel really and the staff are lovely, from managers, nurses, carers, chefs, domestic, administrators, and maintenance - everybody is happy to help and are so friendly.
Everybody is highly trained, and you feel extremely confident that your loved one is in the best hands. I am recommending Bickerton House to everyone!
The care home is like 'home from home' but 5 star! The staff are the most amazing people, my mum went in for respite care and decided to stay! She has the most amazing attention love and respect from everybody at the home and most important she's happy!

Upon first entering the home I was pleased by the staff's willingness to help. The customer relations manager was very knowledgeable and answered all my questions, after a tour of Bickerton House I thought I was in a five-star hotel, but with friendlier staff! My wife is very happy here, calling it her home. My anxiety over placing my wife in care has been replaced by trust, knowing that she is in very capable and loving hands.

I am writing this review on behalf of my mum who has recently started to stay in Bickerton. My mum sadly lost her husband (my dad) while in respite care and the care she was receiving wasn’t to the full standard she needed. She came to live with me for a while and came to Bickerton for a stay while I went away. She enjoyed her stay so much she wanted to stay full time! The staff are incredible at what they do and with my mother having aphasia she struggles in lots of situations, this is not the case here and she has done baking, been to the cinema, made friends and it’s honestly changed her life. The atmosphere is so welcoming and the support the staff provide is more than you could wish for. I couldn’t be happier knowing my mum is here receiving the care she has always needed and giving her the best way of life she has needed this past year.
To find a care home to suit my husband with his advancing Dementia and Parkinsons has been very difficult but to find one that has such lovely decor and rooms, friendly and caring staff, great food and plenty of activities that is so close to home is nothing short of a miracle. My husband is...
To find a care home to suit my husband with his advancing Dementia and Parkinsons has been very difficult but to find one that has such lovely decor and rooms, friendly and caring staff, great food and plenty of activities that is so close to home is nothing short of a miracle. My husband is treated with dignity and respect and I am involved with every step of his care, any problems and I am quickly notified. Nothing seems to be too much trouble for any member of the staff, either for my husband or myself, including my being able to join him for lunch, which I often do. Thank you Bickerton House for caring for my husband - and me.

As Home Manager at Bickerton House, the most important part of my role is to make sure residents feel safe.
A big part of what I do is supporting my team. In particular, helping them navigate the healthcare sector which is always growing and developing. With that in mind, you also need to be well-organised and approachable. It helps that I can draw on my 15 years of experience and level five qualification in leadership.
When I first joined Care UK, I did so because its ethos reflected my own values and beliefs. A career highlight for me is the fact I have been able to work my way up through dedication and learning. Now, I feel proud to be part of a strong team that I have also helped grow. For us, it is about celebrating each other’s achievements and seeing how we can do even better.
Every day is different, but my favourite part is being able to spend time with residents and their families. I love finding out about their lives, getting to know them and listening to their wealth of knowledge.
Outside of work, we are an adventurous family and enjoy road trips and holidays. Having a very sporty son also means we spend a lot of time out and about supporting his activities.
