My father has been a resident for 13 months before he passed away peacefully. I cannot put into words the gratitude to all the staff for taking care of our precious Dad. The compassion, care and empathy they all showed was over and above what I expected. Dad enjoyed the activities and making friends with other residents. My sister and I visited Dad regularly and we became part of the 'Skibeck Court family' too - we enjoyed the coffee mornings with Dad and the wonderful Christmas party. Thank you so much Skirbeck Court team. You are amazing.

Since I've been at Skirbeck Court I've been very happy, quite content, people get on well together. It's a peaceful place. There's no bad language (like my previous place) and all the staff are kind and helpful to me. It's a wonderful atmosphere.

For the past 4 months, my husband has been coming into Skirbeck for 1/2 day to give me a break. The care and kindness shown by all the staff is amazing, also beautiful lunches and everywhere is spotless.

My husband was well looked after, it was unfortunate he had a fall on the first day. The staff worked hard to enable my husband to regain his mobility. When I contracted covid Skirbeck Court continued to care for my husband until I was tested clear for him to return. We will certainly use Skirbeck Court for future respite. Both my husband and I would like to thank the staff.

My dear Pa is in St. John's. Dad is happy. We are all happy. Management and staff are extremely approachable. It is quite clear working in the care industry is very taxing and demanding. The person-centered care to me, is very evident. Nothing is too much trouble, All the staff is very kind and accommodating. For example, in Sept we celebrated Dad's Birthday and Mum and Dad's Anniversary on the same day, here at the home! A first for all of our family. The staff were absolutely brilliant. We were all amazed at how they fussed Mum and Dad with care and gifts and well wishes. The positive transition from staff into this new 'Rhythm' has helped us all adjust, big time. I truly thank God for St John's staff's top-notch care. Going into a care home became a very new and daunting reality for Dad, Mum and all in our family this year. However, all staff have helped us regain 'normality' in a very public space. Thank you all very much. Please know you are all very appreciated.

I came initially for a months respite care but after 2 weeks I knew this was going to be my home. I am so very happy, content and feel safe and supported here.

There was no doubt about it when the time came to look for a care home Skirbeck Court was always going to be first choice (having had previous experience of the home). After suffering a stroke in Sept 2021 Mum who lost the use of her left arm and leg is completely reliant on the care team to assist her in all her needs. We are very happy knowing that Mum is well looked after safe and free to live her life and make her own choices as she pleases in this well-run, clean, friendly, homely environment which is staffed by a dedicated, caring team of professionals. At 96 Mum enjoys her life at Skirbeck and makes the most of her time with the activities available.

All of the staff are friendly and helpful and the home is always clean and tidy. There are plenty of activities for the residents if they want to take part. A lot of attention is given to decorating the dining room and reception area when celebrating/remembering different dates - Valentine's Day, Easter, Halloween, Remembrance Day, etc, with the residents often helping to make the trimmings, and they are made to feel very special on their birthdays. There is also a very attractive and well-tended garden that the residents enjoy. My relation has lived in Skirbeck Court for over a year, has settled in well and is happy there.

My mum has been in Skirbeck Court for nearly a year and I have seen a wonderful difference in her. She has dementia and was really struggling at home which was making her very frustrated and unhappy. Initially, she was tearful during the first few weeks but the staff were so lovely with her and made her feel part of their family. I do not live close by but visit as often as I can and Mum always has a smile on her face. The staff, both carers and office, are amazing and nothing is too much trouble for them. The home is always clean and tidy and the food is all freshly prepared. Lots of entertainment too. Thank you to all of you.

Skirbeck Court is a lovely friendly care home, from the moment my mother went in there she felt at home. The staff are all amazing, they go above & beyond for the residents. They have fun activities & lots of entertainment. I would highly recommend this wonderful care home.

During September my husband had a fall and the carers were with him within seconds. On this occasion, there were no injuries. Within minutes the senior carer had phoned me to let me know. I do feel more confident knowing my husband is being looked after to a very high standard.

When I visit my mum I get a warm welcome from the staff. You can get yourself a hot or cold drink. I go to the garden party, bbq and even bingo. All the staff are very friendly, I go every week mostly on a Thursday. They also have a singer and residents sing along which is lovely to hear staff join in and get residents who are able to walk and have a little dance with them. My mum loves it there. Very clean plenty of food and drinks. I would highly recommend Skirbeck Court.

I have been visiting this home for about a year and a half because I am a private carer and two of my clients have had to come here as more care was needed. The staff are always polite and welcoming nothing is too much trouble. Always offered drinks, and biscuits shortly after arrival and the manager is kind, friendly and always listens to anything you have to say. The home is clean, tidy and smells lovely and fresh at all times, could not ask for more in a home.

All the care staff and office staff are absolutely amazing people, they bend over backward to help both service user and their families. They are very attentive to your needs I could not wish for better because there are no better ladies and gents about. Well done to all of you. Fantastic love you all and can't thank you enough.

When my mother first came to Skirbeck Court, she really was not very well, lack of confidence and vulnerable. Since being here, the improvement has been outstanding. This is due to the care and patience of the staff, who have all been excellent and have gone above and beyond.

From arrival to departure, the welcome and care were exceptional. The staff were professional and friendly and no request was an issue - in fact just the opposite.

I was treated with respect, dignity and kindness from all the staff. You all are amazing. Thank you so much to each of you.

Very happy with Skirbeck Court for my dad. The staff are caring and lovely people. The home itself has a very positive feel to it - very bright and clean. We were most impressed with the food for Dad; it's all home-cooked on the premises, and he really enjoyed every meal. Highly recommend it.
