Wonderful and friendly carers who take excellent care of my Nan and nothing is ever too much trouble. My Nan is really comfortable at Bluebell and we always feel welcome to visit. The facilities are always clean and the activities they do for the residents are great.

I came to the care home this morning with two ex-colleagues to see my friend.
Having visited my friend a number of times in a previous home, we were amazed at his improvement.
We discussed this with his daughter who said he is doing a lot better now.
Thank you.

Our family experience with the Bluebell Court Care Home is excellent. The manager and the staff are friendly and professional. My mum has been very poorly this week and the staff have been amazing in looking after her needs and my family also.
I would like to say a big thank you to each and every one
of the staff at the Bluebell from all the family.

It was a really big decision taking my wife to a care home. It was getting really difficult to look after her at home. I looked at a couple of homes before we came to Bluebell Court Care Home. I know her room as we walked through the door it was different, it was bright clean and welcoming. The staff
are all really nice and caring to residents and visitors. My wife is quite happy where she is and that makes me happy. I can't thank them enough.

My husband has been in Bluebell Court Care Home for over four years now. He has been at death's door with pneumonia this year and the caring staff managed to pull him through. I cannot fault this care home for the support and care my husband has received. The social events held throughout the year are
excellent and well-received by the residents, families and staff alike. It is a relief to know my husband is in safe hands.

I have been really happy with the care my husband is receiving at Bluebell Court. The managers and office staff are very supportive. The carers are hard-working, and the nurses are very professional. The home is very clean. This gives me peace of mind, as it was very traumatic for the family when a
loved one has to go into a nursing home.

My father-in-law transferred to Bluebell Court from a care home as he needed nursing care. The change in him in 3 weeks is unbelievable, he was in the other home for 6 1/2 years. He’s not as agitated, he’s smiling again and chatting with us, which we haven’t had for 3 years. He looks clean and well
cared for. He said he’s happy here. The staff are extremely friendly and caring and we are updated regularly on how he’s doing. My husband, my brother-in-law and Father-in-law’s, sister-in-law, couldn’t believe the positive changes in him. Thank you to all the staff for looking after him so well. It’s made us happier about his move as we were very apprehensive.

We feel fortunate that my husband has a place at Bluebell Court. They specialise in dementia care and the management and senior staff have many years experience in this field of caring. There is a good atmosphere in the home, residents seem relaxed and content and all staff are friendly, patient and
caring, which makes for a happy home. This also is a comfort for our family, knowing that our loved one is in a good place.

In the three years I've been visiting my brother-in-law, I have been treated with friendliness and understanding. The staff have always been approachable and not been made to feel a nuisance with any questions I've needed to ask. You just feel as though you are part of a caring family.

As a visitor, I found the staff and management friendly and approachable. I felt relaxed and appreciated the fact of being able to have a private visit without interruptions. I noticed an improvement in the resident's physical wellbeing. I was also kept updated as to future care and assessments if and
when needed. The standard of the home itself is excellent.

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.197)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.197) out of 10 for Bluebell Court Care Home 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 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.4 out of 5 from 8 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 4.817 for Bluebell Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (79 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 93 Ratings = 4.817

  • 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 4.38 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bluebell Court Care Home is based on 8 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 = 3.8

    • 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 69 registered maximum number of service users is 13.8. 8 Positive Reviews ÷ 13.8 = 0.58

  • 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.

Sindu Saju

Job Title: Home Manager

Joined: 2010

I’m Sindu Saju, the proud Registered Manager of our warm and welcoming EMI Nursing Home.


My journey with Unity Homes began in 2008 as a registered nurse, driven by a deep passion for delivering exceptional, person-centred care. Over the years, I have grown with the organisation, progressing through a variety of roles and embracing every opportunity to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those we support.


Since 2016, I’ve had the honour of becoming a registered manager of our specialist EMI dementia nursing home, where I’ve developed and led a compassionate, highly trained team committed to making residents feel safe, valued, and at home. Together, we’ve fostered a culture rooted in excellence, where personalised care, kindness, and dignity are central to our approach. Our priority is to support each individual’s well-being and independence through respectful, tailored care that recognises their unique needs.


I believe that outstanding care comes from a strong, supported team. That’s why I invest deeply in staff development and lead by example to foster a positive, nurturing environment for both residents and colleagues.


My commitment to quality has been recognised nationally—I was honoured to be shortlisted for the Great British Care Awards as Best Care Home Manager, a reflection of the high standards and positive outcomes we consistently achieve. This recognition reflects our consistent delivery of excellence and the positive impact we have on residents and their families.


I am now proud to have been promoted to the role of Regional Manager, overseeing three homes in the Northwest. In this expanded role, I continue to support and guide teams in delivering compassionate, high-quality care across all our services.


Families can feel confident knowing their loved ones are in safe hands and supported by a team that truly cares. I warmly welcome you to visit our home and experience the difference for yourself, every single day.
