Wingham Court offers 24-hour rehabilitation care and support for people aged 18-70 years living with complex needs and neurological conditions such as multiple sclerosis, acquired brain injury as well as spinal injuries and strokes.

Wingham Court features comfortable en-suite bedrooms and a number of lounges, where residents can relax and socialise. The home benefits from four acres of beautifully well-maintained gardens.

The therapy department has a fully equipped gym, providing slow stream rehabilitation. The physical management programme is person-centred and focuses on preventing secondary complications and maximising function.

Regular visits from professionals such as GPs, speech and language therapists, wheelchair services, psychologist, neurophysiologists and dietitians; enabling resident needs to be continually met.

There is a bustling atmosphere in the home, with things going on which residents can freely join in with like quizzes, singing workshops, films, sports, Zumba, tai chi, visiting entertainers, etc. There are also special interest groups such as discussions, documentaries, ladies night, darts, boccia, reading, and gardening.

They also arrange lots of bespoke and 1-2-1 activities to cater for residents' special interests, or where extra support is required to ensure their participation. They have their own mini bus for regular trips out to the pub, shopping and even the local ice skating rink, so residents don't feel out of touch with their local community.

There is a dedicated art lounge and professional art teacher, children's playground, a well-furnished IT suite, beautiful grounds with raised beds and two Lawn Tennis Association (LTA) registered tennis courts.

Always top care and help. Could be a few more activities geared towards men's interests. But overall very good. Sometimes a bit concerned about some residents "shouting", not their fault but concerning. Food, the only shortcoming is lack of good salads and summer food.

Reply from Alison Horridge, Customer Advisor on behalf of the team at Wingham Court Care Home

Thank you for your feedback. I will certainly pass your comments about the activities and food on to the home manager. Please let us know if there is anything in particular your loved on would enjoy. Thank you again.

I like this home and its staff but I have not really been allowed to see much with covid. I think the rules do not make any sense. It's like a prison, but I know it's not your fault. Mum likes it here so I'm happy about that.

Reply from Alison Horridge, Customer Advisor on behalf of the team at Wingham Court Care Home

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We have a duty of care to all our residents and staff and have been following advice from PHE with regards to Covid regulations but we appreciate it has been a very difficult time. We hope the staff have helped you to keep in touch as much as possible and we are looking forward to welcoming you for a visit to see your Mum soon.

An exceptional and talented team give this care home a buzz that brings smiles to all their residents' faces. The on-site facilities allow for constant rehabilitation and the perfectly manicured grounds provide air and space for the residents to move freely and safely, while the daily activities alleviate
any boredom and every resident is encouraged to participate. My family and I cannot thank the carers at Wingham Court enough, for everything they have done to look after my father and grandmother, they now feel like family and having spoken to other families of residents, know this isn’t a one-off. They care deeply and do everything in their power to get things right the first time. That is the greatest appeal for families looking for care of a loved one.

My daughter has been a resident at Wingham for about 6 years and we have found that the care and attention she has received during that time has been excellent. In these difficult times, it is good to know that although we are unable to visit there we are assured that the care she receives is of the
highest standard.

Generally, my brother is happy here. The rooms are lovely as are the grounds, and there are always lots of activists planned. Unfortunately, the food is not to a very high standard and rather mediocre and uninspiring.

I trust the staff to care for my wife well, and communicate any issues to me. This has been particularly relevant over the lockdown period when face to face visits have not been permitted.

My sister has been a resident here for 12 years and is happy and settled. The staff are very caring and during the pandemic, have been supportive to the whole family. I would certainly recommend Wingham Court to anyone with similar needs.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.770)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.770) out of 10 for Wingham Court Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 51 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 51 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.770 for Wingham Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (472 Excellents x 5) + (110 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 595 Ratings = 4.77

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Wingham Court Care Home is based on 51 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 73 registered maximum number of service users is 14.6, which has been reached with 51 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

Shalimar Tan

Job Title: Unit Manager

Joined: 2016

I have been Unit Manager at Wingham Court since 2018, and I joined Bupa in 2016. I began my career as a pre-registered nurse until I got my NMC PIN in February 2017.


Then, I became a registered nurse/staff nurse from 2017 to 2018, until I became a Unit Manager.


I am an overseas nurse, recruited and sponsored by Bupa from the Philippines. I have experience in Adult/Critical Care Nursing in the Philippines, which helped me pursue a career in the care home sector in the UK.


Being able to make a difference in someone's life and to be part of their journey encourages me to continue my career in Care Services. I enjoy seeing the positive impact of the care we deliver in Wingham Court, to both our residents and their families.


I have been living in the UK since 2016. My family is back home in the Philippines and my husband just recently joined me in the UK last year. I live local to Wingham Court.


If I'm not working, I enjoy going out for walks or going to places around the UK with my friends. I like to try new adventures on my travels. I am a coffee lover and I enjoy trying different cuisines.

Job Title: Senior Activity Co-ordinator

Joined: 2017

My career at Wingham Court began in 2017, I took a short break in service but returned to work in 2023. I have been in my role as Senior Activity Co-ordinator since the beginning of 2024.


I initially joined Wingham Court as a Care Assistant. I have completed several courses over the years to progress my knowledge and skills to support my development. One role that I experienced was Mental Well-Being Co-ordinator, working closely with residents who live with Dementia.


I moved to the UK from the Philippines, and back home I was working with the Squadron Director of the Philippine Coast Guard Auxiliary, assisting and promoting the safety of life and property at sea - to help protect the marine environment. We also supported community events and search rescue operations. It is in my nature to care for people, and it was my job to take good care of civilians for their safety and I was there to support them in whatever they needed.


I also studied Care back home, I completed my training in hospitals. I took good care of both my Grandparents and my Dad. Caring is my passion and I love making a positive difference in people's lives.


I enjoy working alongside my Care Services team very much. I go home feeling proud each day that I have made our residents smile and led fun activities for everyone to join. Making a difference is my inspiration.


I was born in the Philippines, in a place known for its clean and clear water, with numerous wonderful waterfalls - called Libacao Aklan. I am one of six children. My late dad was the former Chief of Police in my hometown while my mom had a little trading business.


I love fashion, and I used to participate in beauty pageants. I also love singing, in fact, I was a vocalist in a band and performed in front of a big crowd back home. Some of my hobbies are DIY, reading books, Zumba (I am a licenced instructor) inspiring others and promoting physical, social and mental wellbeing. Lastly, I am a rising digital creator on the Metaverse social media platform.
