Just a little mention to the staff, and cleaners, too, for making me feel welcome when I visited my mam. When I wasn't at my best. My mam looks well cared for. Lovely people, love to you all. The only thing I would say, is that they could do with some kind of security at the main door. Especially in today's times.

I would like to thank each and every member of staff + (kitchen staff) for the compassion and support you gave My brother in the last 5 weeks of his life. The staff at the Oakwood unit were not staff, they were "angels". On each visit to see my brother, the staff went above and beyond with their compassion and empathy, during our darkest days. Each and every member of staff deserves true recognition for their commitment to such a difficult job role. Once again "Thank you" keep up with your outstanding commitment to your daily role.

I'd just like to say the greatest thank you from the bottom of my heart to all the staff here for caring for my Grandad right until the very end of his long life. He was on the Birches Unit and every single member of staff treated him as family. They went above and beyond for him and my Grandma when she would visit for the full day to spend the day with him too. You are all amazing and our family appreciates and will continue to remember the outstanding care you gave to him. Thank you once again, you angels.

Mapleton Court is one really amazing people-centred care home. We regularly use for respite for my father who is 83 and 8 1/2 years into Alzheimer’s. The staff are so kind and really caring, so especially good at what they do, understanding each individual service user's needs. This care home is very well run, the place is exceptionally clean, the food is of a good standard, Dad always puts weight on while he’s visiting. The main thing that struck me was how everyone always seems happy when you visit, I have often seen staff playing games with residents, my dad likes tennis balls, staff and other residents play catch with him. I now go away on holiday without worry, knowing the best care will be taken of my dad while I’m away. Thank you to all the amazing staff for making Dad's visits so pleasurable for him.

My father was in full-time care at Mapleton Court Care Home from April to December 2022. I cannot thank the staff there enough for their support during this exceptionally difficult time for all our family. The kindness, understanding and skill set of the whole team are excellent. They cared for Dad so well, and they got to know him and his sense of humour and helped keep that alive. We know that he felt safe and cared for at Mapleton Court. A huge thank you to you all, with love from the family.

Been a resident since May 2022 for rehab. Absolutely amazing home with a clean environment and the staff are outstanding. Nothing is ever too much trouble for them, they really do go above and beyond to make it a home from home. Daily activities with activity coordinators to encourage residents to mix and socialise, homemade food and dietary requirements easily met. The care is outstanding. Can't thank the staff and manager enough. Would highly recommend it to anyone whether it's for permanent residency, respite or rehab. Thank you to everyone at Mapleton Court.

A lovely quiet clean and well run home, it’s very calm the staff are wonderful. It’s beautifully decorated with no smells and my sister seems happy and cared for. The staff do a great job. I would highly recommend this home.

Mum has Alzheimer's and having visited several homes nearby I knew Mapleton Court offered what I was looking for straight away. It's bright and airy, on one floor and is like home from home. Mum settled in immediately and the staff are lovely and friendly. I have had no concerns about Mum's care even though her behaviour has become gradually more challenging. The food looks really appetising and is obviously homemade. Birthday parties and celebrations for special occasions eg queen's birthday, VE day also illustrate how staff try to engage with and involve residents. All in all a positive experience.

My dad contracted Covid-19 whilst in hospital and was transferred to Mapleton Court for his isolation period. He was so happy with the consideration and professionalism provided by the staff that we decided to give him additional respite after his isolation period finished. We did this to give ourselves time to get his room redecorated, rearrange furniture etc, and to make things easier when he got home as he lives with us. The level of care provided to him in respite is great, and every time I go to have a socially distanced chat with him, he is always telling me how nice all the staff are, how nice his room is and the meals are lovely. I have been kept informed in regards to anything Dad needs, and if there has been any changes in regards to his treatment by visiting district nurses. Considering the number of care homes in the local area he has tried with his annual respite quota, this has to be the happiest he has been. He will definitely be here for his next respite.

We had to find a residential care home for Mum because we could no longer provide the care she needs. Since leaving Mum she has settled in really well. I cannot believe how happy she seems to be. The staff are really helpful and friendly and have helped Mum interact with others which she never did before. I would definitely recommend the home to anyone. I am so happy we found this place for Mum, it's been a real weight off our shoulders to know she is being cared for so well. It's been a difficult time due to covid but the staff have tried to make our journey as easy as possible. Thank you for looking after Mum and us at times.

Staff are amazing, so caring and well lead by management. They do amazing work, especially over the last twelve months looking after really poorly people. 10/10. The home is superb, I’m so happy that we have found the right home.

We a family felt supported and had a good relationship with staff. My grandma was well looked after during the time there and we were kept in regular contact. I would recommend the home as it's family-oriented and we are always made to feel welcome. It’s a shame about the visiting but we understand that everyone as to remain safe and respect that.

I would not recommend this care home. Communication and person-centred care here need to be addressed. Food presentation is shocking. I visited my Dad one day he was given gravy with fish! He told me he was scared to complain! Despite Government Covid restrictions, my biggest regret is not moving my Dad out of this care home before it was too late. I will regret this forever.

The care home is one level - no stairs or lifts. The staff are always pleasant and helpful. The meals are excellent and there are plenty of activities. All in all a very pleasant atmosphere.

There have been a few issues with changing management that has now been addressed. The staff are caring and seem to have the residents' interest at heart. The activities coordinator is very good and always goes beyond her role. I do believe the home needs more funding as it's the relatives that have to do most of the funding.

Excellent staff. Management requires improvement. Activities need to be more frequent. Previous concerns over safety - staff are aware. Good choice of food and drink. Lovely, clean home. The staff go above and beyond.

Lots of staff changes including management, leaving people unsettled.
