We used Foxby Court for respite in July for 2 weeks and we were very apprehensive but everyone was so welcoming and friendly.So when we needed some more respite Foxby Court was our first choice. This time around mum seemed so much more settled and at home( not that she wasn't in July) Every carer
remembered her. The care staff are amazing and nothing is to much trouble for them.She was a bit reluctant to get involved with the many activities but with a little bit of encouragement she soon got involved.The television room just of the dining hall was her go to place and you would often find her in there with a group of ladies watching tv and chatting. The staff would also inform us of everything she had been doing and her health. The staff treated my mum with respect and compassion at all times and make it feel like home. I can not rate the home or staff highly enough and would not hesitate to use this home again.
Thank you all so much for everything you have done for my mum and us.

My mother in law has now been in Foxby Court for seven months. The care and compassion is second to none. The food is obviously enjoyable as she has put weight on.
All the staff are welcoming and friendly, and nothing is too much trouble. I think this care home is exactly the right place for her,
and she has settled in wonderfully.

A very professional courteous, great standard of cleanliness. Overall a safe environment. Happy staff. Kept well informed of changes (illness or falls). Peace of mind that the level of care is high.

My father was placed at Foxby Court as an emergency placement. He has always been reluctant to entertain the idea of entering a care home. He has Parkinsons disease and is a proud gentleman. After two weeks here he was asked about his future. He asked to stay. His words were 'the treat me well
here'. I agree, the staff are wonderful, engaging and caring. The food served looks delicious and the environment is clean and fresh with activities ongoing.

Clean, friendly, approachable staff. Residents always look happy, always look clean and well looked after and supported. Rooms are always clean and tidy. Main areas of the building also well maintained. Lots of decorating happening and new flooring which is nice to see. I feel very happy and
confident in leaving my parent in the care of Foxby Court.

I have found the carers try to make the resident feel safe. I can see how difficult it is for the cares and Foxby have some special people working there. I have had good support from the home wherever mum has been unwell. Only this month I mentioned mum was not herself and didn't want to drink. I
had tried to coax her for an hour with her afternoon cup of tea. The carer said she would sit with her at teatime and encourage her. The management staff are always approachable and the phone is always picked up when I have needed to ring.

I find the care home to be clean and tidy. The residents always look very clean, and the food is very good. My only criticism is that when a resident needs the toilet, sometimes they can be waiting a while for someone to come and assist them.

I was a regular visitor to Foxby Court and was always made extremely welcome by all members of staff. My friend was well looked after, her nails neatly trimmed and her hair clean and styled nicely. Although my friend suffered from dementia and her mood was variable, the staff always treated her with
kindness and respect. My friend's room was very pleasant, with ensuite toilet facilities, always cleaned to a good standard. During my visits, I also used to chat with many of the other residents, all who seemed settled and happy. Although I didn't see any of the meals, as I would settle my friend in the dining room ready and then leave, the menus always sounded appetising, with a choice of main and dessert. On a couple of occasions, I coincided with a lady doing a music session, which the residents seemed to particularly enjoy and on another, they were just finishing a quiz. I would certainly not hesitate to recommend Foxby Court and thank the staff for their hard work and kindness.

Since my mother has been admitted to Foxby Court the pressure on the family has been eased considerably and we are satisfied her needs have been met. We are grateful as a family that the care she has received has been outstanding and this has been a weight lifted off our shoulders. Her medication
needs have been met which has been a great concern and we feel she is treated with dignity and respect. We cannot expect anymore from Foxby Court.

My mum is well looked after. She is happy and she joins in with the entertainment. I am kept informed about her needs and if she has a fall or anything. The carers all seem to get on well with my mum.

Thank you for the wonderful respite care given to Dad over the last two weeks, nothing was too much trouble for the staff even when they were busy. We really appreciate all the help we have received. Very best wishes to all the staff at Foxby Court.

Carers are really good towards my mother and who ever visits her.
29 January 2024
Foxby Court is lovely, the staff are great and very friendly. The care given is great and they have been looking after my friend very well.
The food must be good because he tells me how he has seconds and is eating much better. The cleanliness is superb, and everywhere is spotless.
I’m very happy
with the care and support given by everyone at Foxby Court!

Total care and concern that matches my own. Nothing is too much, even when busy. I am treated as a full partner in the relationship and am kept abreast of all developments. Thanks to you all.
02 June 2023
I cannot thank the staff at Foxby Court Care Home enough. The care they have shown my father is exemplary. His final years have been a joy because of them. He became a different person after a difficult few years after my mother died.
All of the staff are excellent. They knew him and treated him
with respect even when it was difficult.
Thank you from all of my family.

I was very satisfied with the standard of care and the treatment the staff and management gave to my mother but more important was the staff from kitchen and washing with dignity.

When we, unfortunately, realised Mum needed more care than we could give we looked at homes. The very first time we stepped foot in Foxby Court we knew we'd found Mum's home from home. The staff are exceptional and became Mum's extended family very quickly. During covid when we could not visit we
were grateful she had all her 2nd family around her, it gave us great comfort. We recently lost Mum and the staff immediately opened their arms and heart to us. We laughed and cried together and I will forever hold them dear. Look no further, this home and staff are awesome.

During the time my mum was at the care home, all of the staff showed kindness and compassion and were all very friendly and approachable which was very comforting as a family member to know.

Extremely happy with my cousin's progress. We see a total transformation in his appearance. Very happy with the way the staff care for him. It reflects in his demeanor. He is very happy.
