I was very impressed at the efficient and friendly welcome given to Janet on arriving at Elgar Court care home. It was reassuring for her and certainly for us as her close friends. The standards on offer are 1st class and can be recommended to anyone contemplating respite care or permanent
residency..

I'd like to say how pleasantly surprised I was when I moved into Elgar Court. I was sure I wasnt going to like being in a "home". From the very first I was made to feel welcome and special and very much part of the community here.
I need help with various aspects of care and find these are carried
out in a respectful and thorough manner. Staff are always caring and helpful and above all kind and effective. Well done Elgar!!

For a research job in the past, I have visited all aged care facilities in Derbyshire, Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire over a two year period so I have a comprehensive view of what can be offered in care homes. I visited my sister-in-law who has dementia in November 2025. I want to say how
impressed I was with every aspect of the home:
Flowers growing in a box at waist height to welcome you.
A coffee area and lounge as you walked in.
A warm welcome from the staff.
The lift centrally placed in the foyer with simple codes to stop those clients who have dementia from getting lost.
The welcome from staff and clients in the dementia ward upstairs.
The wide welcoming corridors and clients' doors to their bedrooms.
The place smelt clean (i.e. no old peoples home smell!).
The staff were happy and friendly.
What a lovely atmosphere. Congratulations to all who work there to make this the home from home that it is.

You will not find a better care home in the West Midlands - full stop. The staff are genuinely caring; the food is varied daily and appears excellent quality. The facilities are first class (as a newly opened home, this might be expected) and visitors are warmly welcomed. There is a full list of
resident 'activities' published in advance and offering multiple experiences for residents. Expensive but excellent.

Elgar Court is now my Dad's and Mum's permanent residence. I have no need to worry day to day about any more so have more capacity on being a daughter again. The staff are so caring and compassionate. They also seem to have infinite amount of patience. The staff have made this difficult
transitioning period so smooth as this is a big step in all our families lives.
I do feel both parents are listened to which as they have got older had not always been the case.
Thank you all so much

My Dad has ben a resident at Elgar Court since November 2024, where he has received excellent care and kindness . Recently he needed to be hospitalised and all senior , junior carers and management were incredibly supportive . As a family we truly appreciated the professionalism and personal help
to us during a worrying time .
He has recovered so well and enjoyed celebrating his 90th birthday in July using the Private Dining Room at Elgar Court .
Everyone involved contributed into making it an extremely special day providing us all with very happy memories.
Thanks to all .

Elgar Court are doing a fabulous job of looking after my father in law, and he is very settled there. The activities are varied and they go out of their way to encourage the residents to participate. It is a great comfort to us as a family to know that he is so well cared for, and the staff are
wonderful. In particular, he had a birthday party this past week and the chef did a fabulous job of catering for all of us. Thank you so much.

I most enjoyed my stay. I was well looked after and everyone was helpful and caring, catering was very good & I was never hungry or disappointed by the food & drink.
30 June 2025
My experience of the care home has been excellent. They organised the stay very well - even meeting us at 7.00 am on our arrival after a long journey from Scotland.
The staff have been excellent - caring and interested.

I came here May 1st - May 30th for respite care following four operations for hip revision. During this time the care and support of the management team and carers has been wonderful. My confidence in walking has improved and my general well being also strengthened. I cannot praise Elgar Court Care
Home enough. Would recommend it to anyone and my best adjective would be EXCELLENT!

Beautiful hotel like environment. Always clean and tidy. All staff friendly and very helpful. Nothing is too much trouble. Food (parents describe) is good quality and nutritious. My parents both look well and are recognising quality. Would rate 11/10!

Always treated with politeness and engaging conversation with all members of staff. Environment reflects calm and peacefulness.

Such a wonderful, friendly and helpful place. I couldn't wish for better.

My dad is being looked after very well now. He's now eating and drinking well and has help washing, dressing etc. Always very happy with amenities, activities and staff. They are very helpful and always let you know what is happening. Excellent.

Mum has been with Barchester Elgar Court Care Home for six months and I cannot recommend them highly enough - support for Mum, us, with the transition into care is second to none. Mum is happy, content and enjoys being at Elgar Court - it's more like a hotel than a care home.

Since my father became a resident at Barchester Elgar Court Care Home, he has had excellent care. From my initial telephone call, the excellent assessment while he was in hospital to his "admission", his care has been exemplary. Without Elgar Court, I honestly feel Dad would not be with us anymore.
His physical and mental well-being have improved hugely. My health has improved knowing he is here.

All staff are very friendly and helpful. A new facility built with great care and thought in the design and finish.

I'd give you 5 and a half if I could!

My husband spent a week in your wonderful Barchester Elgar Court Care Home. He was a little reluctant to stay but the staff were so kind and understanding that he quickly settled in and enjoyed his stay. The room was comfortable and he had a great view of the Malvern Hills. The staff, without
exception, were warm and friendly and totally professional. I appreciated all the care that I experienced and would definitely be very happy for my husband to stay again. Thank you.
