Thank you to all the staff at Scalford Court for taking such good care of my grandmother. It is comforting to know she is well looked after and happy staying there. When I speak to her she tells me about all the staff and the lovely activities they get up to during the week. She has been able to keep a lot of her independence and the staff will go out of their way to help meet her needs. The catering is also particularly good; the food is nutritious and fresh which is reassuring for us as we were concerned about her diet before she came into the home. The home has been recently decorated, it has been lovely to see fresh colourful walls and beautiful artwork on the walls. It gives a warm, welcoming feel that I have not seen in many other homes. They have beautiful outdoor grounds which have been lovely especially in the last few weeks with the warmer weather. The rooms are well kept, clean and newly decorated. Thank you to everyone for looking after her so well! Would highly recommend!

I can't thank the staff at Scalford Court enough for the outstanding care they gave my late mum during her time with them. She had severe dementia, and the compassion, patience, and dignity they showed her every single day brought great comfort to our family. The team went above and beyond not just in meeting her needs, but in making her feel safe, loved, and respected. Knowing she was in such kind and capable hands gave us peace of mind through an incredibly difficult time. We will always be deeply grateful.

My dad has been here a year now, the care he receives is excellent. He is treated with care and compassion, the staff are kind and friendly to dad and myself. They do lots of activities with the residents although dad chooses not to participate. My mother on law was in here too and the care she received was also excellent right to the end.

Dad went to live at Scalford Court Care Home after many years of living alone and looking after himself was understandably apprehensive at first. After a short time he began to love living there. The staff went out of their way to make Dad feel at home. They were attentive and caring, treating him with dignity and respect right up until the end. They became his friends, as was shown during the period of his passing when so many of the staff made the time to come and say their goodbyes to him; many of whom shed tears and expressed their love for him, saying how much they were going to miss him. This was such a comfort to us during this awful time and made us realise just how much they thought of him. Dad was always treated with respect, dignity and was supported during his stay It's a very difficult time for families when choosing a care home for their loved ones. But we would wholeheartedly recommend Scalford Court Care Home.

When myself and my sister first started the process of looking for a care home for our grandma, we didn't need to do much searching. We knew Scalford Court was the best, and she would feel happy and comfortable there. We weren't wrong. When Grandma first entered the building, and was greeted by the lovely staff and a wonderful welcoming spread, she said "this is the place for me!" The staff have been wonderful, they are all beautiful caring individuals, and gave my grandma the best care. She suffered from dementia, and all her needs were catered for, and all members of staff made our grandma feel loved. I cannot express enough, how at home you feel at Scalford Court. The cleanliness is top-tier level, along with the professional care given. Thank you all, for looking after our grandma so well.

All the management and staff at Scalford Court are so very friendly, understanding and professional. They always have their residents best interest at heart, and nothing is too much trouble. They understand the feelings and emotions of the family as well as their residents. I could not ask for a more loving and caring home from my father to live safely in.

Scalford Court has provided exemplary care for my father. The staff are genuinely caring, helpful and enthusiastic. Since my father's arrival there, his health has improved and he has gained weight. The setting is very pleasant and comfortable, and the food is excellent! Managers are also on hand to speak to and very approachable. Can’t recommend Scalford Court high enough.

I am very satisfied with the care that my Mum receives at Scalford Court Care Home. The staff are as attentive as they can be, sometimes they can be stretched when busy.

Very happy with the care provided.

Extremely welcoming, friendly family home. All the staff are lovely to me and I believe my dad says some are happier/better than others (some don't want to be there). Everywhere is always clean apart from on some occasions dads commode hasn't been cleaned out and subsequently, his room has smelt. They lose his underwear and some clothes too, but names haven't been put in. Dads room is very small!

Overall very pleased with the staff, but the main issue is waiting time when the bell is pressed (when needing the toilet).

Scalford Court have provided care for my uncle and grandfather. They ensured that my grandad kept his dignity whilst suffering with dementia. They cared for him when the family couldn't. He enjoyed the food, had a room that he was able to hang pictures. The staff became his friends. He particularly enjoys the crafts.

Scalford Court has caring staff; they are very friendly and helpful. The staffs approach to my mother’s individual care needs are excellent and she is always treated with dignity and respect. The food is varied, nutritious and delicious and nothing is too much trouble for the kitchen staff to meet mothers needs. I am really happy that my mother is in their care.

The care my father received in the last 2 years of his life has enabled him to see out his years in dignity with support, care and compassion. This has given me, his daughter, comfort and confidence as his health and mental capacity deteriorated. Dad was happy at Scalford court in his comfortable room and I would gladly recommend this care home to others.

My mum is very well looked after in a homely, happy and calm environment. The staff always show respect to the residents and treat them with care and a positive attitude. Both staff and management have taken the time to get to know my mum and understand her, which enables them to monitor her health very closely and which has made her feel secure in an unfamiliar environment. As a family, we are made to feel very welcome when we visit, and any concerns or issues have been dealt with promptly.

Since my wife became a resident (Sept 2017) I have gradually come to understand and appreciate how a care home operates within what is achievable and practical. Getting the balance right is not easy a few manage to get even close to ideal. In my personal opinion, Scalford Court Care Home has excelled in getting it right in each of the critical areas namely very good and approachable management, compassionate care, excellent healthy food and outstanding mixes of organised activities for the residents. The home is staffed by lovely caring folk who interface with all the residents creating such a wonderful atmosphere of humour and intelligent help where needed. They have to sometimes cope with both physical and mental stress but from my experience are always able to generate laughter in any suitable situation. The kitchen procedures a lovely mix of very tasty food to appeal to most appetites but the staff are hidden away in the kitchen but nevertheless are critical in the care process. I personally believe that the activities arranged at Scalford Court are second to none and again have major positive effects on both staff and residents. The two ladies who organise these features obviously put in a lot of hard work under sometimes challenging conditions but always with wonderful humour.
