I care for my father at home but whenever I go away I always use Housman Court care home for respite for my dad. The staff here are amazing very welcoming friendly and generally good people All the other residents seem happy and they do a lot of activities with them throughout the day. Would definitely recommend

My parents moved in in June this year They have settled in extremely well. They were really struggling at home for a long time but within a couple of weeks they're like different people. Quality of life is 100% better than it was Now They enjoy the food the drink the activities. I also work here so I can see the difference in them every day I am very grateful to the manager and all the staff.

From the moment my mom became a resident they have helped her settle into a routine which was adapted to her individual needs. The fact that we can see her daily care recorded is greatly appreciated by myself and family as we can address any concerns if they are needed.

My mon moved into Houseman court in March 2024 and suffers form Dementia. At first we did not know how our mom would take this move which made the family very anxious. The day mom moved in, I could not believe my eyes she dropped her bag by the door and straight away joined into the activities that were taking place in the lounge! It took a little while for mom to settled in she was up most nights at the being, but then she started to settle in. I can see when I visit my mom now that she is very settled and she likes the carers and has lots of fun with them mostly playing them up in a fun way! I do wish though there were more activities at the home has mom is very active and needs this interaction so she is not just sitting around all day. There have though been some lovely residents & family events that the kitchen staff have arranged which I have attended and I have enjoyed sitting with mom having lovely tasting meals.

A clean and welcoming place, staff are friendly and helpful. While my wife has struggled to settle, I was asked on a few occasions to sit with her to calm her down, they've cared for and sorted her out and she is now starting to settle and get involved with activities.

My mom has been a resident for over 2 years as she suffers with dementia. When she was first admitted to the home the care was second to none and thanks to the staff nurturing her she came back from end of life care. However, over the last 6 months, the home has deteriorated drastically. There are never enough carers resulting in patient neglect. There are no trips organised, few activities and if it wasn't for the kitchen staff there would be no joy for residents. We have had to make the extremely difficult decision to move Mom which is so hard for a dementia patient but we felt we were left with no choice.

My mother has recently passed away at Housman Court, after a three-year stay. The caring staff treated her as if she were a member of their own family. They looked after her every need, and could not have been more kind and helpful. I was always kept fully up to date with her daily life and could pop in whenever I wanted to see her. Her room was clean and tidy and personalised with her own "treasures" and photos. The laundry staff was excellent and the catering was equally as good, interesting and varied meals were provided, and plenty of tea and cakes! The activities and trips out were suitable for her. I could not have been happier with the care she received and would not hesitate to recommend this home.

I am so happy I found this lovely, homely care home for my Dad. Dad is being looked after very well. His care is tailored to his changing needs and I know he is being looked after by a caring team. I would recommend you go and visit Housman Court if you are looking for somewhere for a loved one.

Housman Court Care Home has been our mum’s home for over two years. During that time we have been very happy with mum’s care in the true sense of the word. We have witnessed and received support both emotionally and practically. There have been times when a problem has arisen but there is always someone to help solve it. The manager has recently given a lot of her time to support the family dealing with NHS bureaucracy. We would recommend Housman Court to anyone requiring somewhere for their relatives. We have seen personally a different home elsewhere so are speaking from experience.

My Dad has been at Housman Court a short time, we are very happy with the care her is receiving. The home is welcoming and homely, it has been hard as a family seeing him in a home. Dad has never seemed distressed, all the staff are friendly and caring. Dad celebrated his 90th birthday on 4th February, the staff made his day so special. It meant a lot to my mum thank you all so much.

Our mother had always been reluctant to go into care following fathers passing. However once she arrived at Houseman Court she seemed to settle in well and begin to enjoy her new surroundings. Sadly Moms stay was all too brief but while there the staff showed excellent care and support to her. The care and support showed to the family following Moms passing was nothing short of exemplary. We would highly recommend Houseman Court to anyone.

My mum was reluctant to go into care, but her experience was a positive one. The staff are so caring and compassionate not only to the residents but to the family as well. My mum received end of life care there which enabled us as a family to be with her as family and be supported by the staff. I cannot fault any aspect of their care. As we only experienced a few weeks there some respects were difficult to judge but the most important, care, excellent.

Mum has been here for 6 months and the staff have been wonderful and caring from day one. It is a very challenging job at times but they are calm, reassuring, patient, and professional. I feel she is in safe hands, well cared for and any issues they discuss and try to resolve. Members of staff from receptionist to carers to management are open, honest, and approachable which is so important to build trust and peace of mind for me.

I find Housmans Court to provide a welcoming and homely atmosphere. My mother has a delightful room its clean and personalised with a photograph and my mother's name. I like the opportunities given to the residents to assess, hairdresser, chiropodist, eye care, GP and district nurse all facilities my Mother has benefited from. The Manager and Assisted Manager are both very confident, approachable and knowledgeable in the care of my mother who has dementia, this to me is so important and provides an air of reinsurance. The seniors and care staff are kind, experienced and helpful, always willing to communicate and explain my mother's daily routines and are reassuring if Mom's not had such a good day but celebrating her good days. Both activities coordinators are wonderful in providing such a wide range of lovely activities and always thoughtful and positive in their encouragement to take part. This included providing a beautifully 90th birthday celebration for my Mother.

Mum was admitted to Housman Court just over 12 months ago, following a decline in her health. Her dementia has progressed rapidly since her admission. Sadly, she has been declared at End of life following an infection that needed hospital admission. The staff have coped amazing well with the situation and wanted her to return to them because she should be back at home. All of the staff have been incredibly supportive to us as a family and are wonderful with Mum. They are all kind, caring and patient, showing a real love to the residents they look after, treating them all as individuals. I want to say a big thank you to all the team at Housman for everything that you do.

Always can be relied upon to help Mum. I know she is safe and well cared for. Staff are always pleasant and helpful. I hope the change of ownership does not impact too greatly on the residents. I am very happy we chose this care home.

My mum has been at Houseman Court for over a year now. She has dementia and has deteriorated quite rapidly in her time at the home, which has been tough for the family. I cannot speak highly enough of the care she has received from every single carer we have seen at Houseman. They care for her like she's their own mum. They have patience, kindness and compassion. In the summer she was admitted to hospital with a UTI and the hospital withdrew treatment and discharged her for 'end of life" care. Despite not being a nursing home, Houseman were adamant they wanted her to be sent "home" to them. She duly was, and they put the necessary support in place. She has since rallied and although still very poorly she remains at Houseman, where they have done everything to make her as comfortable as they can. We are immensely grateful to the whole team at Housman for the dignity they give Mum and the care and love they show her

Very good experience. Aunt settled in sell. Caring staff who take time with her. She like puzzles and staff help her. Good activities. Premises need a lick of paint. Food seems fine. Very happy we chose Housman Court

Very helpful, caring staff who go the extra mile to make the residents feel relaxed and comfortable. When visiting the home you are always treated with respect and made very welcome. In fact they are like an extended family and care for you as well.

We love visiting our friend in the home. It's like a home from home. Residents are extremely well looked after, staff are very hardworking, caring and welcoming. The home is decorated and furnished to a high standard and there is a very homely atmosphere. We always feel relaxed and comfortable when visiting and look forward to them very much.
