  • Ivy Court, Norwich
Ivy Court benefits from a quiet residential location, while being close to local transport links and easily accessible from within Norwich and the wider Norfolk area. The home offers a warm family atmosphere, with highly trained staff available to get to know residents individually offering the highest standards of residential, nursing and dementia care on a permanent and short stay basis.

There are enticing spaces to relax such as the bistro and quiet lounges dotted around the home. They understand that residents like to continue to look their best, so the home's hair salon is open regularly for beauty treatments and pamper sessions. Communal living is enhanced with kitchenettes in the dining areas, and a range of seating areas offers residents an opportunity to relax. Bedrooms are comfortably furnished and have ensuite bathrooms. Many bedrooms have private access to the home's tranquil and secure landscaped and sensory gardens or private balconies.

They have their own dementia training. This highlights the importance of a stimulating environment and meaningful activities for people who live with dementia, as well as addressing clinical aspects of care.

My mother in law moved into Ivy Court very suddenly, when my father in law became terminally ill. The kindness and support from the team, to our entire family, has been outstanding. Six months on, she is settled and refers to Ivy Court as "home". Her physical health has improved and she has formed
friendships with fellow residents. All staff are welcoming and professional. As a family, we appreciate that she is in a safe and happy nursing home.

Reply from Ovidiu Andreescu, Home Manager at Ivy Court

Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing your experience. We understand how difficult such transitions can be, and we are truly heartened to know that Ivy Court has become a comforting home for your mother-in-law. It's wonderful to hear that her health has improved and that she has found companionship among fellow residents. Our team is dedicated to providing a warm, supportive environment, and your appreciation means the world to us. We are grateful for your trust and will continue to do our very best for her and all our residents.

Excellent work by the Ivy Court team, by Manager and team since the last CQC review and really installed pride back in the home, and in the staff and it really shows in the way residents present to you as happy when you visit. It's been a long road to get to this point and the job is not over but the
team need to pat themselves on the back for how well they have pulled together and special mention must go to on lady who always makes me feel she has my relative's (who has advanced dementia) best interests as a priority and she is always treated with dignity (unlike previous care home) It's so important Head office recognises the work these core staff are doing and don't lose them and see things return to the dark days where things were in the main covered by agency staff and there was a lack of leadership. This result achieving GOOD in the CQC is deserved recognition and hope it will help the team's self-belief to get to Outstanding at the next assessment. Well done to all!

Reply from Ovidiu Andreescu, Home Manager at Ivy Court

Thank you so much for your heartfelt review and for recognising the hard work and dedication of the team at Ivy Court. It's truly rewarding to hear how the pride and effort of the staff have brought such positive changes to the home, making it a happier place for the residents. Your kind words about the care and dignity shown to your relative, especially given their advanced dementia, mean so much to us. The journey to this point has indeed been a team effort and we're incredibly proud of achieving the GOOD rating from the CQC. We deeply value your encouragement and will continue striving to deliver the highest standards of care. Thank you again for your support, it means the world to us.

When I was looking for a care home for my mother my sister and I naturally researched previous inspections of various homes. Ivy court had an inspection I think around about 2020 ish. One or two things were highlighted but we still decided to visit. Recommendations had clearly been addressed and we
had no worries at all. It's an impressive place and we didn't hesitate to have mum there. It's so well equipped and immaculate throughout. The staff have been superb and amazingly caring in mother's complex needs. The communication has been first class. There are various pastimes for residents and lovely gardens. The manager runs a very good home and is a nice guy. I would not hesitate to recommend Ivy Court. My mum sadly passed away Boxing Day but the staff were so lovely and caring in our loss. I cannot thank them all enough.

Reply from Home Manager, Home Manager at Ivy Court

Thank you so much for your heartfelt review and kind words about Ivy Court. We're deeply sorry for your loss and are honoured that we could support your mother and your family during such a difficult time. It means the world to us to hear that you found our care, communication, and facilities to be reassuring and that your mother's needs were met with compassion. Your recommendation and recognition of our team and the Manager's leadership truly mean a lot. Please know that our thoughts are with you and your family.

My husband has been a resident at Ivy Court for 2 months. I visit him every day for 2 hours or more, and at different times of the day, and therefore have a good view of how it works. The management and reception are excellent, the day and night nursing staff also. Everyone is willing to chat. They
also ring me if there are any concerns regarding my husband. Everywhere is clean and light. The food is good and caters for special diets. The carers are friendly and patient. They hold twice daily activities which are good fun for those who want to partake. I am impressed also by how everything relevant to the resident is logged. I cannot fault Ivy Court. The garden is lovely.

Thank you for taking the time to write us such a lovely review, we're so happy to hear that you and your husband have had such a positive experience so far.

My partner who has advanced Alzheimer's disease spent a week respite at Ivy Court in February 2024. Unfortunately, he was hospitalised for six weeks in June with pneumonia which advanced his disease so he now needs end-of-life care. He was transferred to Ivy Court at the beginning of August and the
staff have been so kind and caring to him, he is always well cared for and the staff are very supportive of me. They have encouraged me to be involved in planning his care and they do all they can to make his life as pleasant as they can. I am a retired nurse and I know the challenges care staff face each day, but everyone works hard to ensure the residents get the best possible care. His room is light and airy and is always spotlessly clean. The main building is modern and well laid out with good facilities and a beautiful garden, and again always very clean and tidy. The management staff are always ready to listen if I have any concerns and all the staff are kind and courteous.

From start to finish, fully enjoyed her first stay at Ivy Court. The whole team were friendly and helpful and she would have no worries about having to return for further respite, which is great news. We were kept appraised throughout her stay of any issues that arose. Everyone made us all feel welcome,
even the head chef made her, her favourite sweet upon her request. Cannot fault anything, keep up the good work.

When the decision is made to place a loved one into care it’s not always easy to choose. Ivy Court made the decision easier. With ensuite bathrooms and bright spacious bedrooms it seemed the perfect fit for someone needing nursing care yet allowing for as much independence as possible given the prognosis.
The best part is my father-in-law is welcome to go at any time and is always made incredibly welcome.
I have seen lovely and caring staff.
I love that each floor has its own dining room and lounge allowing for familiarity, safety and creates a small friendly atmosphere..
I really am grateful for everything Ivy Court has done so far from a smooth admission to taking care of my loved one.

Ivy Court is amazing! The whole team there work together to give all the care, nursing and social activities and nutritious food needed by those in their care. They are receptive, and nothing is too much trouble. Whatever anyone's role, they seem to be passionate about what they do and the well-being
of the residents of Ivy Court and pull together as a team. My mum says it feels like a happy family. In the three months, she has been there, she has flourished - her health issues are well managed, she is now mobile again, and most importantly, she is happy. I am happy too, that she is safe and enjoying life again.

I cannot speak highly enough of the care that my Mum has received at Ivy Court. All staff whatever level are hardworking, empathetic and nothing is too much trouble when it comes to the individual care of residents.
Ivy Court is exceptionally clean and bright, residents' rooms are spacious and accommodate
those with mobility issues. The outside space is well maintained with good wheelchair access for all to enjoy. The residents have the opportunity to attend daily activities from a dedicated activity team, with outside trips enjoyed by all. Residents enjoy meals together in the communal dining room, where a choice of nutritious meals are served.
As the daughter of a resident at Ivy Court any concerns I have had with Mum's well-being and increasing frailty have been managed with compassion and support. Mum has settled in well to Ivy Court and speaks highly of staff on all levels as caring and nothing is too much trouble.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.878)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.878) out of 10 for Ivy Court is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 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 4.892 for Ivy Court is calculated as follows: ( (150 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 166 Ratings = 4.892

  • 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 4.986 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Ivy Court is based on 14 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 71 registered maximum number of service users is 14.2. 14 Positive Reviews ÷ 14.2 = 0.986

  • 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.

Ovidiu Andreescu

Job Title: Home Manager

Growing up in Romania and inspired by my mum who worked in the nursing profession, my dream was to become a nurse. After graduating from nursing school in 2013, I took the next steps and applied for my first RGN position in the UK. I then progressed to Clinical Lead and Deputy Home Manager, and finally to Home Manager.


I enjoy all aspects of managing a care home, including making it homely for my residents and offering personal care based on individual needs. It is important to me to support my staff to develop and succeed in their roles. I feel very privileged to be in a role which gives me such fulfilment and enables me to bring my knowledge, experience and skills to my team.


Our residents have a wide range of personal interests and this is reflected in the activities we offer and the personal touches you will find around the home. Our community here is warm and welcoming. I would welcome anyone to come for a tour and I look forward to introducing you to all we have to offer at Ivy Court.
