We live in an extra care apartment attached to Quarry House care home. We have food from the same kitchen, join in the activities and entertainment, which are provided for Quarry House residents and are able to use extra services, like cleaning, laundry and personal care, all of which are of a high standard. So we have been able to see for ourselves the high level of care and the dedication of the staff to the welfare of all the residents. There is an enthusiastic and committed entertainment team, who provide stimulating and enjoyable activities and a varied programme of singers and performers. As Quarry Court residents, we were also thought of throughout lockdown, with a weekly sing-song on our balconies, which lifted our spirits. We have been impressed that measures to keep residents safe from Covid have so far meant there has not been a single case of the virus.

We have been very pleased with Quarry House. When my mother moved here initially 4 weeks after being at death's door in hospital for 6 weeks, we did not expect her to survive. However, the care she received from the carers and nurses has made her brighter, healthier and happier than she has been for years.
Thank you for this great review. I am really pleased that we have been able to provide such a good standard of care for your mother. I will make sure that the team get this feedback.
This is the second care...
This is the second care home my father has been in and looking back, I believe I should have moved him to Quarry House earlier.
Almost without exception, the staff are polite and very caring to my friend. She was keen to find a proper "home" for herself and this we have done. She particularly wanted a good activity programme and to be local for friends to visit. Quarry House has fulfilled both requirements. They are...
Almost without exception, the staff are polite and very caring to my friend. She was keen to find a proper "home" for herself and this we have done. She particularly wanted a good activity programme and to be local for friends to visit. Quarry House has fulfilled both requirements. They are flexible to her need for early showers and late homecoming as she is active with outside interests. After the settling in period she does feel at home with a very pleasant room full of her own "stuff".
Thank you for this positive review, I am very pleased to hear that we have been able to meet the needs of your friend so well, as this is always our aim. The staff will also appreciate the positive feedback and I will make sure that your comments are fed back to them.

I started my career in nursing in 1979 working as a nursing assistant in a long-stay hospital in Bromham in Bedfordshire. I then moved to Bristol in 1985 to complete my nurse training, working and living in the nurses’ home at Hortham Hospital for people with learning disabilities.
I had found my vocation.
I managed my first nursing home as a registered manager of Clifton Park in 1997 – this was a 21-bed nursing home where I stayed for ten years.
I continued to work for the Brandon Trust in various managerial roles until I retired in 2017. At this point in my career, I had worked in the nursing field for a total of 38 years.
I lasted 6 weeks of retirement – it just did not suit me! In my search for a new challenge, I found Quarry House, my forever job. I love the values and the philosophy of the organisation. Geoff Crocker, our Chairman, who interviewed me for the post inspired me beyond belief. He was so passionate about the Bristol Care Homes group, that I just wanted to work at Quarry House. The intimacy of Bristol Care Homes radiates across the teams who work for the homes across the group.
Bristol Care Homes invests in people they are interested in their staff and the residents they support.
My hobbies are holidays, renovating my cottage, and my grandchildren. One day I will try retirement again; until then I remain in my forever role at Quarry House.

I am an experienced Registered Nurse who joined Bristol Care Homes as a Deputy Home Manager in December 2022.
My experience stems from working in a clinical setting as a Registered Nurse and ward manager in a specialised service for adults with an acquired brain injury requiring care and treatment with complex physical and cognitive impairments and challenging behaviours.
Having this experience has enabled me to gain a wealth of clinical knowledge and transferable skills that will enable me to enhance my role at Quarry House and ensure that the residents receive person-centred care and support the staff to deliver this.
I am very personable and enjoy having the opportunity to work within a multi-professional setting.
I enjoy watching quizzes, historical dramas especially Poldark, and watching any film with Keanu Reeve in.
