Overall Experience

My wife has been in Ayresome Court for about eighteen months, I think the staff - nursing and management are great and very pleasant. They are very quick to sort out any problems that arise.
My wife is always very clean and well looked after and the room is always spotless.
A lot of care homes tend

to have an air or odour about them but here smells nice and fresh all the time.

We were very pleased with the care given to my mum. The staff were friendly, helpful and responded well to the problems facing mum. They looked after my sister and I well when mum passed away - responding immediately when her breathing stopped.

Overall Experience

I found the home to be very friendly and considerate. Extremely helpful and very very patient towards my mother and understanding. The home was very clearly homely. Nothing was too much trouble. We entered the home with my Mother as strangers, but we have left as friends. And will stay friends. I would

be more than happy to recommend the home to anyone who needed your services.

The treatment my Mother-inLaw received in her stay in Ayresome Court, was from her first day to her last day absolutely wonderful. You may well be proud, no extremely proud of the staff in your home, from the Manager to the cleaners. Well done everyone.

Overall Experience

My 96 year old neighbour has been coming here for respite over the last several years. She enjoys coming and has made wonderful friends with both staff and residents. I enjoy coming to visit her and the staff are always friendly and chatty. My grandmother was here for her last few months 12 years ago

and we were so happy with her care.

My daughter is in the home for temporary care and stay whilst alterations are made to her present home. During her stay, I have witnessed extremely good care towards her. The staff have been very very good in all they do. They are also very polite and nothing is any bother to them.

Overall Experience

Following two visits for respite care and visiting other care homes in the area prior to my mother-in-law's move into a home, we concluded Ayresome Court was the best home in the area for my mother-in-law. Since moving in, my mother-in-law has settled in much quicker than we expected and has been welcomed

and treated with great kindness and patience. The food has been scored highly too. I cannot speak too highly of the care she has experienced since moving to Ayresome Court.

Overall Experience

My mother suffered dementia and Alzheimers and was declining aged 93. Then home took her in and cared for her every need in great detail. What struck me most was the high quality of care across all sections, nursing, medical and caring, cleaning, food, laundry, maintenance and entertainment activities.

What gives the home its special warmth was the close collaboration and attention to detail shared by each staff team. Mum was very happy here up to the moment she died.

My father spent his last few days in Ayresome Court Nursing Home after suffering a stroke at the age of 91. The manager and staff moved heaven and earth to get him transferred late on a Friday and avoid another weekend in the hospital.

During his short time here he was treated with dignity, respect

and affection by the happy helpful and caring staff.

Overall Experience

From the day he arrived at the home until the day he passed away, my Dad was treated with dignity and respect.
I popped in most days and was always greeted with a smile.
Nothing was too much trouble during my Dad's last days.
If I wasn't with him a member of staff was, and that gave me peace of

mind during a very difficult time.
Dad passed away peacefully, with dignity, in his own room and that was all I asked for.
Staff attended Dad's funeral and that was lovely for the family to see.
Dad was very happy in the home and was especially fond of being in the garden, doing a bit of weeding, eating ice-lolllies, chatting with other residents/staff or drinking his endless cups of tea!
At his funeral we asked for donations for the Home and raised enough to buy a Companion Seat, now others can benefit from sitting in the garden and enjoying what Dad loved to do the most.
I cannot compliment the staff enough, they were and are wonderful - thank you to the manager and the team.

Overall Experience

My mum was admitted to Ayresome Court Nursing Home on 23rd May 2017. She had several bouts of pneumonia and was hospitalised from 19th Jan 2017 to 23rd May 2017. When she arrived at the home she was in a weak state and not interested in getting out of bed. The staff soon got her up and about and she

came back to life. Every time she got ill they were fantastic and seemed to blossom back. She died on the 4th January 2018 almost 95 years old. I did not want my mum to be in a nursing home but the staff were so friendly and cheerful. I could not have asked for anything better.
