King's Court Nursing Home

On this basis my husband moved into his room there in August. I have nothing but praise for the new home manager and her caring kind staff. My husband has settled well. He and I have particularly enjoyed the wonderful afternoon tea and the cheese and wine evening with live music. Just wonderful to enjoy a social occasion together. With the lightness of touch and generosity of spirit of all the staff this home offers everything needful for focussed care in a warm and peaceful environment. I would recommend this home without any hesitation.

Kings Court is very special. The care my partner received was 5 stars. You have an amazing nursing team and he wanted for nothing - every need was met. I have never seen such a wonderful nursing home and my partner was very comfortable there after spending many months in hospital. The peace and tranquility is great and such wonderful areas to relax. Cant thank any member of staff enough a credit to Kingsley

A warm friendly feel and welcome about the place. The Staff are amazing. The Facilities are excellent and very clean. One of the lifts was out of action, but soon fixed.

The care for my wife, who is terminally ill, has received has been first-rate and far exceeded my expectations. She has worked as a healthcare professional all her working life in the NHS and has been delighted with the care she has received.

The building is modern, good facilities and decor giving safety & security for residents.

We had a really bad experience with Kings court care home in Holt.. Our dad spent a month here (before we could find a better place!) in nursing care after a spell in hospital. The staff seemed completely unprepared for his arrival and we had to spend a lot of time there trying to ensure he was safe and well cared for. One of the biggest problems was there being no staff around to answer the bells if residents needed help. After a particularly bad day trying to find people to care for him I made a complaint directly to the manager who assured me things would be better. Exactly the same thing happened the very next day with me spending nearly half an hour looking for help- even going to different floors! We felt he was basically unsafe and care was not dignified or kind enough. I think the problem was largely how the place is managed and their clear priority of profit over quality care. I strongly advise families to avoid it.

I was visiting my friend at Kings Court Nursing Home, for 4 days. I found the staff very kind and helpful both to her and to me as a visitor. It is a difficult job and they mainly do it well. My concern was that my friend's need to go to the toilet was not answered at all promptly. I realise that she sometimes 'cries wolf' but I think someone should always respond promptly to her buzzer and call her help. There were also few staff with time for a chat with her. Also and very importantly, her liquid intake, which is far too low, is not being monitored and this could be serious.

I booked myself into King's Court for two weeks' respite care following major abdominal surgery. The nursing care has been superb. I could summon help with my pager at any time. The decor is that of a top-class hotel, and clean and dust-free. Knowing that I was safe here gave my family peace of mind. The food is excellent, varied and nutritious. In my case, I followed a light diet and special diets are also catered for. There are daily activities arranged for residents, and two well-tended gardens. No meals to prepare and no housework left me more time to recuperate. I would highly recommend King's Court for recuperation.

My mother has been at King's Court for 4 weeks. She had a challenging time before arriving having stopped friving and finding it increasingly difficult to cope with living independently, She had always said she would never go into a home and struggled to accept the change to begin with, but the fantastic staff here have gone out of their way to make her feel at home and to get to know her individual preferences rather than expecting her to fit in with a standard routine. The building and gardens are fabulous - so well designed and fitted out. We could not have found anywhere better.

We looked for respite care for Mum as we needed to go abroad for a month. Mum was very reluctant to try a care home, but she has absolutely loved King's Court and didn't want to leave once the month was up. The staff have all been so kind, Mum really enjoyed the meals and the range of activities on offer. She has made some lovely friends during her stay and is keen to return when we next go away.

My first experience of staying in a care home has been great. The staff are so helpful and friendly and nothing is too much trouble. The nursing staff have treated me with loving care and done everything possible to improve my health. Food has been superb, served on time throughout the day. I would not hesitate to return for respite care at any time in the future.

I came after surgery, I came to view the place a week before hospital, and was impressed. My daughter suggested a week's respite, I have been so satisfied with the care I've received. The staff are so kind and always attentive to my requests, etc., bringing me tea in the middle of the night.

In the short time I have been here I have been very impressed by the high standard of the accommodation. Staff are so friendly, willing to help, professional, caring. Overall a very good service.

Fantastic staff, super helpful and very caring. Very clean and tasty food. Everyone is so caring with Mum and happy to spend time with her when she needs a chat. The nurses are excellent and very vigilant at monitoring their patients' needs.

King's Court is an incredibly friendly and welcoming place with very attentive staff. In the month my mum has been a resident she has really come back to life after a period of struggle living alone. I think this is definitely the best home for her at this point in her life!

My mum has been in King's Court for 3 months. Everyone has made her very welcome and she feels safe and cared for. Mum says the choice, quantity and quality of the food is excellent. As a family, we are very happy that Mum is now living here.

Dad arrived less than a week ago and has so far been very happy. The staff and facilities are fantastic. "Wow, just wow."

Such a lovely care home - all the staff are so caring. They constantly call into the room to check all is well. So very friendly and caring with their conversation and meeting all the residents' needs.

My wife is in for a 3/4 week care following a fall and hip replacement. The care is working well! The care and attention of the staff is excellent and has been a key reason for her gentle recovery. The staff is always positive and friendly, and the atmosphere is always very good. The repsonse to 'ringing the call bell' is excellent and this is important. The home is kept immaculately, and visitor access is easy and welcomed. My wife is enjoying her stay.
