Mum moved in to Bracebridge in July and the manager was amazing she made the transition so smoothly for us both ,mum has settled in well the staff are very friendly and kind and nothing seems to be to much trouble for them ,they will do anything for mum,the place is very clean and Mums room is
cleaned daily. The food is of good quality and I like that they have 2 choices and they always seem to be having cups of tea which is good. Overall I am very very pleased the way Bracebridge is being run and the standard of care my mum is receiving long may it continued.

My Mum has been a self funding resident here since having a stroke over 2 years ago. The care staff are kind and supportive and the activities are commendable, The home is well equipped, nicely furnished and kept clean and tidy. We are confident Mum is safe and well cared for a Bracebridge Court.

Very poor staff level, lots of agency staff. Resident left in bed in dark with curtains closed and left asleep, was there for 9 months and staff rarely showered her, it. was left to the family to tend to her hygiene. Room was dirty, dust under bed, debris behind moveable furniture and floor sticky.
Bedding could be soiled and no attempt to change it. Was always told she didn't want to get up, didn't want a wash, didn't want anything. Truth was, easy to leave her and shut the door with cold cups of tea or coffee and dirty tray, full jug of water with no encouragement to drink. Treated with little respect. Room was facing long noisy corridor with constant disturbance. No encouragement for social activity or use of dining room, consequently we feel she shrunk back and began to reject life. Her medical needs were not properly carried out, and regular non diabetic food was served. Although she did enjoy the food which was of a good standard. Her care seriously declined over her stay.

Mum has vascular dementia and severely arthritic hands so finds some/many recreational activities difficult. A highlight in December was the 'old timer choir' performance in another town. Several support teams from the groups homes combined to perform in the town and acheived entry into the guiness
book of records - minimum age of 92!

My mum is very well cared for despite the difficulties she has. All the staff are helpful and friendly and will respond to any issues I have promptly. My mum cannot join in with the activities provided but I can see there is a lot of entertainment and stimulation provided for the other residents,
who always seem to enjoy and join in the fun. Activities outside the home are also good and mum has managed to enjoy visits for meals out and the Butterfly farm. I feel reassured that my mum is in the best place for her and know I can rely on high quality care.

My father has only come to Bracebridge for his 2nd week now but I am finding he has come along in leap and bounds. I've been very impressed so far.

Was very impressed with the friendliness of the staff on my first visit to see my best friend. The varying selection of activities and outings that are offered is amazing. I loved that you can make yourself and resident a drink in the cafe

We have nothing but thanks and praise for Bracebridge court. My auntie was only with them 10months but had exceptional and outstanding care. Even though she had dementia she requested to go in this care home living in Atherstone all her life she knew how good it was.
All of the staff are so
pleasant and caring I recall one Saturday afternoon one of the carers announced Sunday lunch would be beef and all the trimmings which got a great response .Also the manager and another member of staff in particular were so helpful and went above and beyond to help my dad who also is elderly to make the situation as straightforward and helping my auntie stay where she was happy and contented. Many thanks .

I was enormously grateful for the care given to my mother by all of the staff at Bracebridge Court. They were kind, gentle, attentive and provided a warm and homely atmosphere.

Brilliant care and attention from the carers. Dad needs help as he has Parkinson's and nothing was too much trouble. Made us feel relaxed and was able to cope. Thank you so much.

We had a lovely visit today - joined in the bingo activities with other residents. We also stayed over lunchtime, that was excellent. We left as our friend was going to a cooking class.

My mother was in Bracebridge Court for twelve days respite.
Her overall experience was very good and she enjoyed her time there. She was well looked after and the food was very good. She particularly enjoyed the activities which stimulated her as she spends long periods alone at home. When outside,
attention was paid to the residents with hats, suncream and refreshments.
Thank you Bracebridge for making Mum's stay enjoyable.

Since moving to Bracebridge Court last year, my mum is looked after very well. All staff are friendly and extremely caring. I feel reassured that her needs are met and gives myself and family reassurance too. Staff treat my mum with dignity and has a very good rapport with staff. Rooms are clean and
spacious, food is good and adapts to dietary requirements. Overall, a fabulous place for elderly needs.

When coming in, it is very clean and the staff are always welcoming to me. The home does always smell nice. The staff always go the extra mile when it is birthdays and anniversaries, they always invite me for a meal and I spend time with my husband, making memories. The food is really nice and my
husband eats well.

Mum has been a resident in Bracebridge Court for just over eighteen months. Her care during this time has been excellent. The whole team; managers, carers, activity organiser, administrator and support staff, are all very caring and approachable. Last week Mum celebrated her 105th birthday and
everyone went over and above to make her day as enjoyable as possible. The home is well-run. Rooms are pleasant and well equipped and all areas are spotlessly clean. We often comment how pleased we are that we chose Bracebridge Court for Mum.

Bracebridge Court is great. My dad is very well cared for and the staff are always kind and pleasant. They know him well and do their best to look after him. His memory is failing but they are always patient and helpful.
The rooms are clean and spacious. There is a good range of activities on offer
and the well-being coordinator is thoughtful and kind. She tries hard to provide specific activities which will interest the different residents. My dad used to work on a farm so she arranged for him to see the local Tractor Run before Christmas.
The Manager is a good listener and takes decisive action when necessary. If I am concerned about any aspect of my dad's care (which is rare) then I am confident that she will sort things out quickly and effectively.
All in all, I am very happy with Bracebridge Court.

Participated in the coffee morning. Also the bingo and singing. Staff make you feel very relaxed in the home environment. My mum joins in almost everything activity-wise. Pop in the home every day, lots of laughter. Relaxed atmosphere. Pop in for a coffee anytime.
