Rectory Court are dedicated to providing excellence in residential care. We have been very pleased with how well they have looked after our friend and she has settled in quickly. Hopefully she will join in some of the activities soon.
As I am based a long way away it is really important for me to be
able to rely on the team at Rectory Court and I know I can. My only challenge now is to find a good time to call for updates etc. I work full time so when I am free (lunchtimes, evenings and weekends) the care team are usually busy with the clients. Fortunately the more senior members of the team also use email for communications.
Thank you for all you have done so far!

Very happy with the level of care, quality of food and range of activities available for residents. There is always a member of staff on hand when assistance is needed and we feel that our aunt is being well cared for. It's great that a therapy dog goes in regularly and very happy with the physio
team also.

I honestly cannot praise the staff at Rectory Court enough. They have shown the highest level of care, compassion and sensitivity caring for my mum, and nothing is ever too much trouble. They greet us with smiles and have been incredibly supportive when times have been difficult; they have become
friends we look forward to seeing. Mum loves every one of her carers and they brighten her day in so many ways. The home is beautiful - even the toilets are luxurious! Mum loves the food and choosing from the menu is a highlight of her day! Rectory Court are nothing short of amazing.

We have been so impressed with the care and happy atmosphere at Rectory Court. All the activities are geared to help people on many different levels of physical and mental aptitude. Barbara has settled in so well in quite a short space of time. As a family we feel so relieved that she is safe there
but also happy. They also welcome friends and family that come hot visit. Well done Rectory Vourt for being everything you promised to be.

The minute I walked through the doors of Rectory Court I knew I had found the right place for my mother. She was delighted with her room and encouraged to make it her own.Care is 'person led' at Rectory which meant staff quickly got to know her and embraced who she was.She felt comfortable and
safe.We all did , at Rectory.
In these last stages of her life the team with their flexible and imaginative approaches to care offered mum choice and control in her day to day living.The atmosphere in the home has a gentleness about it.Staff are friendly and open.There are opportunities for social connection with a wide array of activites and groups if that's what you like but also places to be quiet and peaceful.The gardens are stunning ! Staff across the board were always approachable and kind ready to talk through anything if I had a worry .Mum was extremely happy at Rectory.We are truly grateful.

This is a wonderful care home. My mother has been so well cared for over the last 18 months. The home is very comfortable with lots of activities for residents. But most of all the level of care from the wonderful staff is second to none. Highly recommended.

From the moment our mum moved to Rectory Court she, and us as her family, were welcomed into a lovely caring, kind and compassionate environment. Mum was treated as an individual and respected as a person. Care was taken to understand what her interests were and she went from living on her own, with
family support, to have a busy and fulfilled last chapter of her life, that her family could also take part in. It is never easy to make the decision to move to a care home but she and we made absolutely the right decision to choose Rectory Court. The care was great and even when things went wrong, as of course they do from time to time, the response was always immediate and appropriate. We felt the staff, especially the Manager, GP, Events Coordinate and the carers really cared about mum and us and went out of their way to make mum's last 3 years the best it could be and along the way we made some good friends. Thank you.

It's still early days -my Mother has been at Rectory Court for 3 weeks - but so far we have had a very good experience. The activities they offer are varied and interesting, including trips out to Greenwich Park and Oxleas wood, as well as things like choir and carpet boules. I"ve been
impressed with the carers too, all are good, but some have gone the extra mile in connecting with her and making her feel at home. The food and interiors in general feel quite like you are in a small hotel. They have a great coffee machine and baked goods for residents and visitors to sample. The garden is also beautifully manicured and gives the residents a lot of joy in the summer months.

My mother has been a resident for over a year. During that time her overall health has improved as a result of the regular care. The staff maintain a high standard of comfort in the surroundings. A lovely garden is good to sit in when weather is nice. Meals are served in lovely dining rooms in a
genial atmosphere. An impressive range of activities are provided, from group activities to outings and film showings. There is a piano, a choir, and musicians often visit. Having lived independently until the age of 96, I can't imagine her having settled anywhere better. The care staff do everything they can to respect her and make her comfortable. It feels like a very nice small hotel.

Mum is cared for, but at the same time her life is not regimental. There is freedom for her to join, or not, of many activities. The relatives are also free to come and go as we see fit. There are also activities that involves friends and relatives to come and join. Last Christmas, there was the
wonderful show put on by the residents, relatives and staffs. We look forward for more to come. The staff are wonderful and friendly. Well done everyone!

Mum and our family have had a very positive overall experience whilst living and visiting at Rectory Court. Mum has taken full advantage of the many activities on offer. It is a very welcoming and friendly home and whilst there are many different residents in the community, each is able to be
themselves and be treated with care and dignity. The activities coordinator works hard to include everyone and individualise activities where necessary to meet residents' needs and interests. Our concerns have been few but we have found staff quick to respond when necessary.

I cannot recommend Rectory Court Care Home highly enough. It is such a beautiful environment and the staff are all so caring. My mother has been very happy there and I love going round to visit because of the wonderful happy atmosphere. They run a fantastic activities program which is thoughtful and
stimulating. They have talks, live music, regular excercise, bookclubs painting just to name a few. There is a beautiful garden for them to spend time in and the food is wonderful and freshly cooked on the premises. I can't praise it highly enough.

Excellent service all round. Very supportive, great food, lovely kept garden and always clean inside and very pleasant surroundings. Lots of help whist dealing with the most difficult times in your life.

My mum spent just over a year at Rectory Court. We visited several other local care homes but rectory court was the only one where the staff seemed engaged and friendly, and where the environment was friendly and welcoming. The range of activities is great and they are always open to considering
different and new ones, the food choices are lovely, the carers and other staff are really friendly and seem to genuinely care about you and your family member. They were always quick to respond to any issue I had. In her final months, where she was receiving end of life care, I could not have been happier with how she was treated and the efforts made to make her more comfortable and to help me feel happier in the process.
My only tiny quibble is with the facilities in the room. Although the majority of people at the home have some sort of mobility problem the toilet is a normal height with no handle on the wall, though one was fitted on request.Other than that I can't praise it highly enough

My husband has just spent his first 2 weeks at Rectory Court and has settled in very well. The staff are all very kind and caring. He is enjoying the activities, quizzes, games and exercise class. Such a good variety.

My husband is a resident at Rectory Court. The carers and all staff are dedicated and professional in all aspects. He is very comfortable in the well-planned facilities and is encouraged to join and enjoy the activities that are suitable for him. The general atmosphere is happy and engaged. I have
been very grateful to have such a well-managed, supporting environment for my husband.

My mother came to stay at the care home after a short stay in the hospital. She stayed for just over a month and the care and kindness with which she was treated was really wonderful and very comforting. The staff were attentive, jolly and welcoming to her and us and were professional and efficient
too. The food was excellent, very fresh and varied. Mum enjoyed the garden, the company of the other residents and the fact that there was lots going on even if she wasn't able to participate in all of it. I really think it's a lovely place and is made as homely as is possible for a care home setting.
