9.8 Group Review Score (the average from all locations with a review score)
  • Care Homes Owned by Forest Healthcare
Forest Healthcare's vision is to transform the perception and experience of care from something driven out of necessity to something that represents a positive choice for improved quality of life.

Forest Healthcare provides specialist residential, nursing and dementia care for over 650 residents across South East England. Since opening their first home in 1994 they have grown and now employ over 1000 highly skilled workers whose primary role is to provide clients and families with the very best person-centred care available.

In addition to providing high quality 24-hour residential nursing care for elderly persons aged 65 to 100 years and over, they offer respite, postoperative care and crisis intervention services. Several of their facilities cater to younger clients aged 18 and above, including those suffering from neurological and spinal conditions. Other facilities offer more specialist care for conditions such as Parkinson’s disease, Huntington’s disease, MS, brain injuries, stroke rehabilitation and challenging behaviour.

As a group, Forest Healthcare runs 13 individual care centres in Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Essex, Hertfordshire, Kent, London and Norfolk. Their Centre Managers are all vastly experienced and have proven track records in the care industry. They are supported by a dedicated Operational Care Team, many of whom were former Centre Managers themselves.

Their primary objective is to improve the quality of life of the people they care for. They seek to promote independence, choice and dignity of the individual and believe that people must be safe and secure at all times, whilst providing a relaxed and stimulating environment that motivates them to live a full and happy life.

Ash Court Care Centre

from S M (Daughter of Resident) published on 14 March 2025
Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

I am very pleased with the level of care and attention Ash Court Care Home provides my mother. From the first point of admission we as a family have been reassured that she is welcome, she is seen, her personal choices/prefernences respected. Staff and care home manager have been consistently polite,
caring, respectful, reassuring and patient with our mother as well as various members of the family. Our mother is very happy with her new home and would not dream of being anywhere else.

Mum has been very well looked after since she has resided at The Poplars. The care staff really do care and support staff are very friendly and helpful as well. The food is plentiful & nicely presented even though mum has to have hers pureed. Mum's clothes are always clean and she herself is kept clean
too. Health & safety rules are always followed & people come in regularly to check on mum's well-being. I have no complaints whatsoever on the care mum receives.

Mum has severe alzheimers and requires understanding, support and compassion. On our last visit we saw nothing but this from all the staff we came into contact with. They treat Mum with dignity,respect and patience.
Mum has been in the home for over 4 years now and I have never had any concerns regarding
her care. Communication is good, they all understand her needs and she is always clean and suitably dressed.

Grace Manor Care Centre

from Juliette E (Daughter of Resident) published on 4 March 2025
Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

My father needed more care than we could safely provide and we selected Grace Manor following a previous visit and feeling that the home could be right for my father. All the team have been very supportive in getting my father settled into the home. All the team show him kindness and interest in him
as an individual, which has been very important in helping him settle and feel safe in his new environment. It was a very big and emotional decision for us and this has certainly been made smoother by the support we received. When I say 'all the team' this covers the nurses, carers, dinner staff, laundry and maintenance - who I have seen address my father in a kind respectful way.

We are incredibly grateful for the exceptional care our mother receives at Warren Lodge. From the very first day she arrived, the centre manager and his team's dedication and compassion have been evident in every interaction with our whole family. The facilities at Warren Lodge are of the highest standard,
providing a comfortable and safe environment that truly feels like home for both residents and their families. The attention to detail in every aspect of care is outstanding. From the personalised medical attention to the impeccable cleanliness, the in-house chef's delicious meals, and the engaging activities that keep residents active and happy, every element reflects their commitment to running a five-star home.

Carers are very attentive in looking after my husband and his needs are mostly met. I do think the carers should have training on dealing with diabetics on knowing what their diet should entail according to each individual needs and understanding the consequences of sugars being too high or too low.

Mum is very happy at Grace Manor Care Centre, she enjoys the activities, loves her room which has all her photos and her own furniture. She loves to be outside which the staff are well aware of so on any nice day (summer and winter) they will sit her outside in the lovely garden. The staff are so attentive
and take the time to chat and have a laugh with her. She is still able to get out to her other activities but is always warmly welcomed home.
