I have found Boldmere Court to be a homely and secure establishment for my brother. He has a pleasant room with en-suite facilities. The staff are friendly and very caring. Although his condition is causing some new challenges, the staff deal with the situation with kindness and dignity. I am confidence
that he is safe and well cared for, The management have a personal interest in their residents and for their well-being.

Review from C D (Son of Resident) published on 29 May 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
After our father's sudden fall, he was hospitalised and paralysed. Soon after, he was diagnosed with aggressive cancer. He asked that we, his sons, be fully informed and explain his care to him. Though unaware he was nearing the end, he wanted us constantly by his side.


Honouring that wish was exhausting,

but we were determined. When he moved to Boldmere Court Care Home, we were welcomed as family. From day one, the staff showed genuine compassion and respect - to him and to us.


In his final week, we lived there. Nothing was too much trouble. Their kindness made an unbearable time more bearable. They cared for our father with dignity and love, and extended that same care to us.


We are deeply grateful!

Thankyou, this review means a lot to the staff, who all grew close to both Dad and yourselves. It was an honour and privilege to look after dad.

All the Staff at Boldmere Court are great, really friendly and helpful. They treat the patients with the greatest respect. The Nurses know their jobs well and carry out their duties with full diligence. The home is kept very clean and, from what I have seen, the food and drinks are fine. I wouldn't
hesitate to recommend this care home to anyone.

The staff are so welcoming to my dad and the whole family. All his needs are met and nothing is too much trouble for them.
He's comfortable, clean and always looks peaceful. His room has everything he needs, as we were told to bring his personal items from home like photos, radio and books.

Not much to say except the home is very good with brilliant staff and carers. Everyone is very helpful. I would like more music from the 60's & 70's played for the residents rather than obscure TV programmes.
Saying all that my wife is very settled and happy there and I have nothing to complain about.

Review from Paul M (Brother of Resident) published on 28 July 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My brother was diagnosed with dementia and after a bout of pneumonia was transferred bed bound to Boldmere Court Care Home for palliative, end of life care. I visited most days to spoon-feed him his dinner to the point where his room became our “den” and the staff (day, night and admin) our adopted
family. His G.P. and the staff worked miracles and it’s a testament to their care and attention that he survived a further 5 years. I can’t thank everybody enough and would strongly recommend Boldmere Court.

Review from V C (Daughter of Resident) published on 12 June 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
After many years of poor mental health and untold trauma, my mother ultimately succumbed to a dementia diagnosis and was placed in respite initially in a care home local to me. As her health declined, the need for her to remain in care was tangible. During those years, we had the best time, chatting,
singing, walking and laughing. Eventually however, her behaviours became too challenging and she was moved to Boldmere Court during lockdown. I knew my mother needed more tailored care but it didn't make it any easier. I felt I had failed. Seeing my mom behind a glass screen during an arranged covid safe visit gave me hope. I knew instinctively she was in the right place. The staff have been nothing short of miraculous in their efforts to care for her. I don't visit these days; it's too hard but that said, I know for a fact my mother gets the chats and singing and laughter with Boldmere Court staff that we used to share together! I thank them from the bottom of my heart! They are angels.

This home delivers excellent care. As a worker who has been here for eleven years, I can proudly say that I have the best team to work with. We support each other like a family. Everyone I work with treats others with care and respect, not only residents but other staff too. The residents are well looked
after, cared for and loved like a family. A brilliant home for your relatives.

My mother was given an overdose of medication. Although not fatal we were not informed. Only found out 5 months later from Social Services. The nurse was suspended and then sacked but the point is they tried to cover it up. We are currently taking legal advice.

My father only spent a short time at Boldmere Court but the care he was shown, the compassion he was afforded and the dignity with which he spent his last days were above and beyond our expectations. I can't thank the staff enough for ensuring my fathers last days were very comfortable and peaceful.

Very relaxed setting and calm environment.

Cared for relative with excellent personal care and washed, shaved and hair done daily. Would totally recommend.

My mother has been here for 3 weeks and is very comfortable. She is very well cared for. Staff are fantastic. Mom likes the staff and knows them well now. I have seen a change in her since being here. She is less anxious, less angry and a lot more settled. Mom is eating and drinking again since being
here.

My dad was taken care of from January until May when he sadly passed away.
The care my dad received here was the best, they not only took care of my dad but also us as a family, staff here are caring and supportive.
It became our second home as we stayed many nights to be with dad.
We as a family
will always be thankful for their care as I believe they looked after dad so well that we spent extra valuable time with him.
I strongly recommend that anyone who is looking for a care home for a loved one you won't get one any better then Boldmere care home.

Review from Margaret R (Wife of Resident) published on 9 December 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My husband stayed at Boldmere Court Nursing Home for nine months up until he passed away. The care he received during his stay was excellent - all of the staff we found to be caring and understanding in this difficult time. They genuinely took the time to get to know my husband, myself and other members
of the family and Boldmere Court became a second home to everyone. The staff not only looked after the general health of my husband but they took the time to retain his dignity at all times. When I mention the staff, this not only includes the day staff, but night staff, admin and management teams all has input into his care and respect.
We as a family would certainly recommend Boldmere Court to any other families that find themselves in very difficult and distressing times as a place of help, care, attention and dignity.

Current Review Score: 8.7 (8.675)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.7 (8.675) out of 10 for Boldmere 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 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.9 out of 5 from 5 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 4.807 for Boldmere Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (49 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 57 Ratings = 4.807
  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 3.868 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Boldmere Court Care Home is based on 5 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 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 = 3.5
    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 68 registered maximum number of service users is 13.6. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 13.6 = 0.368
  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.
