Overall Experience

My mother has been in the home for just over a year and I visit about twice a week. The staff give excellent care and are very friendly. The nursing staff have been very professional when dealing with any problems with my mother's health. The office staff are also excellent and the only small complaint

relates to the food, which is not great and is usually cold.

Overall Experience

My mother entered this care home in June 2017 which over the last 19 months really did become her home. My sister and I and the rest of the family became part of the furniture there. We knew most of the staff on first name terms and nothing was too much trouble, from making a cup of tea for us all or

helping to arrange our mum's 80th surprise birthday party with providing all the food and a massive cake for 30 people and children. There were a few minor issues in the early days but these were quickly sorted by the staff. In Mum's final days we found the staff to be even more helpful. Nothing was too much trouble for Mum or us.
We looked at several different care homes in the Abingdon area and I am glad we chose this one - five star.
With sadness, mother passed away in February 2019 surrounded by her family.

Overall Experience

The staff in Abingdon are always excellent, but in light of the outbreak of the Norovirus over Christmas, when the home was closed to visitors, all carers and staff were put under extra pressure, but always had time for phone calls and kept us updated.
Extra thanks to them all.

Overall Experience

For over five years my husband has been a resident at Abingdon Court. Throughout this time he has been extremely well cared for and I cannot praise the manager and staff too highly. The nurses and carers are very well trained, dedicated and caring. My husband is immobile and needs an enormous amount

of care and attention. He looks forward to and always enjoys his delicious meals which are well presented. The daily activities are varied and cater for the varying needs of all the residents. I visit the home every day so I am very aware of all the excellent care which goes on there and I recommend it to anybody I know who is trying to choose a nursing home.

Overall Experience

My aunt has been a resident for two years and this is my third visit to the UK to see her during this time. Having spent many hours a day each time I have come, I'm impressed at how hard the carers work. I was happy to see consistency and familiar faces amongst the staff. They're genuinely caring towards

the residents and I'm appreciative of this. I would strongly recommend this care home and am happy my aunt is well cared for here.

Overall Experience

For the last 6 weeks, there has been quite a few agency staff covering summer holidays which has not been very satisfactory because they do not know my husband who is extremely ill and dying of cancer, as well as being very confused from his dementia.
I think that the long-term care since February

2018 has been very good and the permanent care staff good throughout.
I wish there was someone who could look after our worries - outreach worker.

Overall Experience

My Husband was cared for here for over 2 years. In that time the caring was exemplary:-
1. Carers were kind, compassionate and patient.
2. Everyone was helpful, understanding to residents and relatives. Nothing was too much trouble and everyone worked hard to please.
3. The food was nicely presented

and very good.
4. Private and public rooms were cleaned daily and nicely furnished. Laundry done every day.
My family and friends were well pleased with this care home, we could not have chosen better.

Overall Experience

It is very sad when your husband has to go into a nursing home, but I would like to say how happy I am that my husband is in Abingdon Court.
It is very clean and he is well looked after by very caring staff and very friendly to my family and I.
I have been visiting when he has had meals, I must say

they have smelt very appetising and my husband has eaten them all up.

Overall Experience

My mother was in the home since September on the top floor. All carers and nursing staff were very caring and helpful when it was her birthday, they decorated her room with balloons and posters and sang Happy Birthday. She was in the best place for her last few months of life. Despite her difficult

healthcare requirements, she remained calm and comfortable and staff cared for her in every way. As a family, we were very content knowing how secure and content she was despite her critical medical condition. A first-class establishment and a special place to trust our relatives too.

Overall Experience

Abingdon Court is fantastic. It stood well above other local care homes when we were viewing them and my mother has had excellent care. The staff go out of their way to get to know each resident and their families. Residents are treated as individuals, they are treated with gentleness and dignity and

there is good communication between everyone involved.
Staff are always available to speak to family members, from carers, nurses, the administrator and the manager, everything is transparent and well-managed.
