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.

My mum is so happy and settled in her new home with her new friends and extended family. All the staff are genuinely caring and respectful towards my mum. When we visit Mum, she is so happy, always immaculate and clearly loved and cared for. We cannot thank you enough for everything you do for Mum.
We love and miss our mum so much and look forward to our visits each week. You are our family too. Thank you.

The staff are very aware of my mum's needs and have adapted to changes in my mum's health brilliantly. All the staff are very helpful and extremely caring. Nothing is too much trouble for them. I feel very reassured that mum is under the care of Bluebell Court.

Review from Tracey H (Daughter of Resident) published on 12 July 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am putting in this review on behalf of myself and my dad.
My mum was a resident at Bluebell Court for just over 8 years and sadly passed away in June 2021.
When we first viewed the home we knew it was the right place for Mum and her complex needs. All the staff have been excellent in the care of
Mum and I can assure you she had her moments but they just knew how to handle her and calm her down. They always make sure that your family member is comfortable and cared for. During the pandemic, they have kept in touch constantly to let us know how she is and my dad rang every other day and they were never too busy to take his call. I do not know what we would have done without the staff at Bluebell they are very special people a big thank you to the management, admin and care staff we owe you so much.
When Mum passed they treated her like she was a family member, they were so caring and respectful of my mum and us as a family which helped us so much on that very sad day. Thank you always.

After poor care from a different care home (one a lot more expensive), we cannot compliment Bluebell Court Care Home enough. Every time I see my uncle he is clean, hair tidy, shaven and well dressed (as in, isn't covered in food!). He has not once complained and is always encouraged by staff. Your care
staff are excellent and deserve high praise.

Review from Paula R (Daughter of Resident) published on 18 January 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
After a very difficult and heartbreaking decision for my dad and sisters, Mum became a resident at Bluebell Court. We can't praise the staff, admin and management team enough. We love our mum so much, and we know she is well and truly loved and cared for by the staff. She always looks fresh and clean
and impeccably dressed. Most of all she is happy and very settled in her new home.
As Mum's Alzheimers makes her a little temperamental at times, the staff know how to 'sweeten' and make her smile.
Thank you so much Bluebell Court, we are forever indebted to you.

My father has experienced exception care and attention during his stay in Bluebell Court.
All his needs and services have been provided by the brilliant care staff.
He has been looked after very well.
Always clean and fresh when I visit to take him out for lunch.

Excellent care is undertaken with dignity and respect. Always the right ratio of staff to residents nurses, always on hand to answer any queries or concerns re medical issues. Management always on hand to answer any operational concerns. Leave after visits feeling content that loved ones are in safe
hands. Cheerful and happy environment.

My mother was sent to Bluebell Court Care Home in April 2016 as an emergency case and once assessed we decided to let her remain as a full-time resident because she settled in nicely and the staff were excellent with her. There have been many improvements and changes at the home since 2016 and more
is planned for the near future. My mother is happy and content, is well fed, well presented, and cared for and has actually gained weight! Every effort is made to stimulate her mind and a newly appointed activities coordinator ensures this occurs with all the residents.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.333)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.333) out of 10 for Bluebell 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 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 9 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 4.781 for Bluebell Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (87 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 105 Ratings = 4.781
  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 4.552 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bluebell Court Care Home is based on 9 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 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 3.9
    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 69 registered maximum number of service users is 13.8. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 13.8 = 0.652
  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.

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.
