I'm going to describe my experience with this care home. My Dad stayed here for around 6 months and he had a really good experience. He was really happy here with the staff. The staff were really friendly and they all treated my Dad as a friend. I would recommend this care home for your loved ones.

My godmother, who lived on her own, had unfortunately taken a turn for the worse and had been required to be moved to a care home. A really upsetting experience.
However, on visiting her at The Albion Court Care Home, my mind was definitely put at rest.
I turned up, unannounced, had to sign in for
security and then was allowed to go and visit her. I walked towards her room to find her walking along the corridor going to the dining room unassisted to have lunch.
The other residents were sat at the table whilst the lovely staff attended to their every need ensuring that everyone was catered for.
My godmother didn't want much, but the staff insisted on her having a lovely main, dessert and drink. All she kept saying is 'I want a cup of tea' on fish and chip fryday.
I met with the deputy manager, who I'd love to name but not allowed to. She put my mind at rest and advised me to speak to Social Services for additional information.
Me and my family are really grateful to the wonderful team at Albion Court!

The transition from a previous Avery care home was difficult at first as the family were made aware just weeks prior to the move that my father had been deemed end of life. As a family, we were dependent on the help of a staff member to help us sort out financial aspects as there had been a query regarding
if a health bed would be totally funded or not. The staff member made several calls and communicated with the relevant personnel to help us as a family to which we are grateful and she was able to fully inform us of the parameters pertaining to my father's care package.

The admin staff was absolutely brilliant when Dad had to come into care. She was and is friendly, kind and helpful. It was a very stressful time but she helped us greatly with the admin side of things and it all went smoothly, so not having to worry about that side of things was really great. I think
Albion Court Care Home is a fantastic care home. They have looked after Mum really well since 2019 and Dad since January 2023. I would like to extend my thanks to all the staff at Albion Court.

Went to visit Mom today 4/08/23 only to find a fun day/celebration in full swing. All the residents were catered for. Some staff came in on their day off to help out. Mom sat out in the sun foot tapping, steel band plus a singer keeping everybody entertained. Enough food and soft drinks to cater for
residents and guests. Yet again a 110% effort from all the staff to include and entertain. Thank you all.

I would like to say a huge thank you to Albion Court Care Home for taking care of my aunt. She has been in the home since Covid and is so relaxed and at peace. The staff are warm, caring and so willing to help. The deputy manager is a star and has been extremely helpful in trying to ensure that the

This is my second annual visit to this facility. As always, I am greeted with a friendly smile at the reception area and when in contact with any of the staff. The facility is clean, bright and odour-free. The grounds are immaculate. My mother consistently reports happiness with the staff and the facility,
and of course, her meals. The frequent Facebook postings keep me in touch with the many activities.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

I attended a 96th birthday gathering at Albion Court Care Home on Saturday. The resident moved into Albion Court fairly recently. The experience surpassed all expectations based on my visits to other care homes over the years. The environment was extremely welcoming and friendly. The staff were so helpful
and on hand to help and assist the event and guests in addition to their usual duties.
It was great to see how relaxed and settled in the birthday 'girl' was with her new environment and to witness the positive relationships developed with the staff. The family room and resident's lounge were lovely and cool, despite it being a hot day and also having direct access to the garden. The resident's en suite room was airy and spacious with direct access to the lovely garden space.
I will certainly be recommending Albion Court to anyone exploring care home facilities.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.683)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.683) out of 10 for Albion Court Care Home - Avery Healthcare is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 25 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 25 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 4.683 for Albion Court Care Home - Avery Healthcare is calculated as follows: ( (209 Excellents x 5) + (70 Goods x 4) + (11 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 290 Ratings = 4.683

  • 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 Albion Court Care Home - Avery Healthcare is based on 25 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 89 registered maximum number of service users is 17.8, which has been reached with 25 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.

Beverley Aldridge

Job Title: Home Manager

Joined: 2019

Hello, my name is Beverley, and I am delighted to be the Home Manager here at Albion Court.


I have 40 years of experience within the healthcare sector and have achieved qualifications such as the Management level 4 Registered Manager's Award. Working in residential and nursing settings, my previous roles have been as an Operations Manager and a Nurse.


Within this time, I have shared many treasurable moments with the residents I have had the pleasure to meet along the way. One proud moment that has stayed with me throughout my career was when I was able to reunite one of my residents with their brother, who had lost contact and not seen each other for 15 years. To their surprise, they found out they had only been living a few miles apart the whole time.


I would best describe myself as someone who is very outgoing, warm and welcoming and always wanting the best for the home. I pride myself in providing a high-quality service to all residents ensuring they receive an exceptional level of care and have a fun, enjoyable life here at Albion Court. In my spare time, I enjoy going on holiday, meeting with friends for meals out and spending time with my family.


Avery Healthcare, owners of Albion Court, strives to be the best in care, providing high-quality services whilst offering its best support to managers and staff. Our home is truly unique as it reflects Birmingham’s rich cultural heritage with our diverse and happy community.


I look forward to welcoming you to Albion Court.
