The home is beautiful and deceptive as it doesn't look much from the outside. Its lovely internal garden has beautiful plants and a water feature which is very calming. The residents are cared for very well and my friend is very happy.

We are very happy with Eden Court. The accommodation is well presented, comfortable and clean. The communal areas are particularly nice. The care staff have been excellent and all the staff are very friendly. There are a couple of areas where I could suggest improvements (i) we have had some issues
with the laundry service and items going missing as they were not labelled and (ii) many of the activities are focused on the less mobile residents and it would be good if there were some more activities for the more mobile residents. My mother also likes to get outside and it would be good if weather permits to have a daily walk or time in the courtyard garden to get outside a bit more.

Reply from Colleen Davidson, Eden Court Resident Services Advisor at Eden Court

Thank you for your constructive comments. We will always strive for excellence, and are currently reviewing our laundry and labelling procedures to provide an improved service. Our activities schedule will continue to evolve to reflect our increasing occupancy, and the requirements of our individual residents.

I am most impressed with the care and attention given to my long-standing friend of sixty-odd years during his first month at Eden Court. He is delighted with his new accommodation and constantly tells me how nice and helpful he finds the members of your staff. Not once have I heard a word of any complaint
or self pity, only praise and gratitude for being placed in a safe and comfortable home. Congratulations Eden Court and to everyone working there.

My mother stayed at Eden Court post-hip surgery following a recommendation from her Surgeon. Any apprehension of placing my mother in a care environment were soon curtailed. The welcome was warm the staff were friendly, helpful and thorough. The activities she enjoyed greatly especially the live entertainment.
I would definitely recommend Eden Court to any family member or friend in need of being looked after.

Eden's team were very welcoming and showed good care and attention to a new resident. The room and common areas are of a very high standard, and the food is exceptional. Staff were evident and often checked on the new resident. A medical check was carried out that identified an existing problem, which
was treated well, and all parties were alerted, demonstrating good practice and controls.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

A really great friend has been a resident for about five weeks now, and I have come to see that it is just the right place for him and has confirmed my initial thoughts when seeing the place for the first time before he settled in.
The staff are all amazing and friendly. They truly go the extra mile
to ensure he gets the most out of his time within the building. The building itself is great, with different areas for socialising and partaking in activities. The food is wonderful and made fresh daily; no fish fingers there (like he had twice a week in his previous care facility).
Visitors can eat with residents, who are there either permanently or on respite, in the dining room on the ground floor, accessed through the bar area. It is all very welcoming.
Secure parking for visitors is useful too.
We are all delighted that we found Eden Court.

Reply from Adam Tallis, Village Manager at Eden Court

Many thanks for the review of your friend's stay with us at Eden Court. We are so pleased that you liked the surroundings, staff and of course the excellent food. Our chefs ensure that they serve the very best meals to our residents and their visitors. We will pass on your feedback.

From the moment we walked into Eden Court, we could not believe it was a care home. We have stayed in many beautiful hotels, and this matched them all.
My uncle absolutely loves it at Eden Court. The food is gourmet, the care outstanding, and the cultural immersive programme stimulating.
What an amazing

I spent a fortnight at Eden Court, in Respite Care. I had a broken ankle - having fallen down the stairs at home. I had a 'standard room' for a few days and then upgraded to a 'suite - with a sitting room and kitchenette' thereafter (when the latter became available). I found Eden Court a very suitable
place for Respite Care - with helpful and empathetic staff. I have already recommended Eden Court to two friends - one of these has subsequently stayed there for Respite Care and was similarly impressed by the facilities. I would also mention that the food and ambience in the ground floor dining room are of 'restaurant standard'.

Congratulations on your excellent, caring service at Eden Court during my two weeks of respite care. The services of the care staff and managers were very much appreciated. I enjoyed the gourmet food and creative, varied menus. My visitors were also impressed. The care home has been very well-designed,
constructed, furnished and decorated to ensure a pleasurable environment. I have already accepted to return for respite care in May and am looking forward to the comforts provided.

Dad moved in for nursing care in August 2022, but it gradually became clear he was unlikely to go home. The staff have been amazing since day one - very friendly and caring. His face often lights up when he sees a particular favourite, but they are all so kind and caring to him. I have no qualms at
all about leaving him in their care. The home itself is luxurious and very well arranged and managed. Dad isn't well enough to go out on trips, but the concerts and visits to the home by singers and musicians have been very welcome and always take him out of himself. I've found all the staff to be very approachable and easy to talk to.

I can't speak highly enough of the staff at Eden Court. From the general manager, care services manager and the qualified nurses to the care assistants, they are all exceptional, kind, caring and cheerful. The place itself is lovely, with attractive communal lounges and a wonderful, peaceful courtyard
garden. But the thing that makes this place so very special is the staff... I can't thank them enough for looking after my mother with such kindness and care.

My mother-in-law moved in October 21 and was initially very distressed, finding it difficult to adjust to 'home' life. However, the staff did all they could to look after her and make her feel at home. Now one year on is settled and looking better than I can remember in a very long time. The care is
first class and the facilities superb. She couldn't be in a better place.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.965)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.965) out of 10 for Eden Court is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 29 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 29 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 4.965 for Eden Court is calculated as follows: ( (332 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 344 Ratings = 4.965

  • 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 Eden Court is based on 29 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 79 registered maximum number of service users is 15.8, which has been reached with 29 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.

Mary Gali

Job Title: Clinical Services Manager/Deputy

Joined: 2024

What I do:


I am currently working as a Clinical Services Manager at Eden Court.
My Experience:


I completed my graduation in health studies from the London School of Management and Science and achieved a certificate for best service in Dementia course from Sterling University.


I have worked in various care settings which has fuelled my dedication to provide excellent care. My knowledge of clinical skills will enable me to continue to provide outstanding care with dignity and respect.


About me:


My enduring passion for nursing can be traced back to my childhood. I am inspired by Mother Teresa who strived hard to collect grains to feed the poor, help the destitute and nurse the leprosy.


I am blessed with two beautiful daughters, studying in senior secondary school. I have a lovely supportive husband who has a Doctorate in Hospital Management.


My hobbies are gardening, social work, current affairs and watching sports.


Claudine

Claudine Rudall

Job Title: Senior Activities Coordinator

Joined: 2023

What I do:


I am the Senior Activities Co-ordinator here at Eden Court. I am responsible for creating weekly activity schedules that are seasonal, exciting, inclusive, stimulating and fun. This includes live entertainment, fun outings, activities centred around hobbies and interests, culinary masterclasses, and cultural days embracing dance, costumes, and foods from around the world.


My Experience:


I started my career in sales. I then moved into event planning & management before running my own business developing & delivering educational physical development sessions for preschool children. And creating extraordinary entertainment packages for children’s parties, family gatherings & weddings. My career path changed course due to the COVID-19 pandemic but led to a conversation with a friend who was managing a care home, she highlighted how my skills would be perfect in a care setting. I nursed my mother through a 12-year dementia journey, it is a cruel disease. I was shocked by the lack of mental stimulation available during a respite stay in care. But it gave me first-hand experience and how I can make a difference to our residents daily.


About me:


I live in Surrey with my husband. We are Aunty & Uncle to many beautiful children. I love cooking, entertaining, staying on our boat, sea fishing and family BBQs on the beach. I also love musicals, singing and Harley-Davidson Motorbikes.


Inderpreet

Inderpreet Bhambra

Job Title: Apartment Services Coordinator

Joined: 2021

What do I do:


As the Apartment Services Coordinator, my main role is to support our fantastic apartment owners to ensure a smooth and uncomplicated moving-in experience that is lasting. Subsequently, I work closely with them after the move-in to cultivate a community environment that feels like home. I am also privileged to work with both the Hospitality and Catering Teams to host different creative-themed galas and events for the Apartments.


My Experience:


Having worked in Social Housing for a number of years I understand how daunting it can be to relocate to a new home, so my experience allows me to assist in making the transition as smooth as possible. While my previous experience has largely been with young, vulnerable adults and families I am excited to bring some of my skills to Eden Court. I particularly enjoy working in a meaningful way, in a face-to-face role where I can create a positive mindset and most of all help others.


About me:


I recently completed my postgraduate qualification in Neuroscience and Psychology, so I have a deep understanding of isolation and loneliness which are a common concern, particularly since the COVID-19 pandemic.


Attila

Attila Volosinovszki

Job Title: Head Chef

My Experience:


I started to work in catering 15 years ago. This changed my career forever. My first kitchen was a village restaurant in Hitchin where I realized my passion for being a chef.


My latest achievement was winning the Vegetarian for Life, Chef of the Year Award in 2023. This recognition is particularly important to me, as more and more vegans/vegetarians are moving into care.


About Me:
Not surprisingly creative cooking is my passion, Hungarian food is very close to my heart, and I enjoy reading the classics. I would love to do a tandem jump for charity.
