"The care and kindness at Badgeworth Court is second to none. From the management to the nursing to the carers, you would be hard-pressed to find better. Nothing is too much trouble for them. There is no problem for me to stay when my wife is ill, always offered a tea or coffee. Very professional, exceptionally clean and tidy. Beautifully kept gardens. Absolutely wonderful - 10 stars."

"Since Mum has been in Badgeworth she no longer gets urine infections/skin tears. She has started eating better, put on weight, is more stimulated with activities. She loves the staff who are so friendly and caring and helpful. Never rude or moaning, always listen to any problems or issues and sort it out immediately. The meals are wonderful, Mum has a fantastic choice. She has her hair done every Thursday. Staff are aware of Mum needing to rest on her bed as he ankles swell. They know to cut up her food. They know Mum likes to have a banter with them. All staff, kitchen, housekeeping, care staff all really care. The home is clean and tidy with fantastic views and a lovely garden outside. They have a minibus to take out service users on trips out. Mum no longer has falls. She has settled so well at Badgeworth which enables me to sleep at night knowing she is safe. We are informed if Mum is being seen by a social worker or mental health nurse. We are now also emailed by Badgeworth for activities that we can attend."

"Badgeworth Court Care Home is set in delightful grounds and is an oasis of care and rest for the residents. It is expertly run by a very pro-active manager who has improved the structure of the home significantly since her appointment. Her attention to detail, expertise in nursing care and readiness to speak to resident's relatives in commendable. All her staff are now putting into practice a lot of her ideas and they too are to be praised for their increased efforts to provide first-class care. They all work tremendously hard and are all very friendly and helpful. Full marks to the general manager and her staff for providing a safe and happy environment for their residents."

"Needed to find a placement for my 87-year-old Brother. In our review of local possibilities, we included Badgeworth Court, which had been recommended by some friends and was near his home. We are pleased to say that we selected Badgeworth Court, which is in a lovely setting between Cheltenham and Gloucester. The staff and management are all open, friendly and always very helpful. The home is well kept, clean and tidy. Care and training are at a high standard. I am always kept in touch with any issues that may arise. With the help of the staff, my brother has both settled in well and has made some good progress since being at Badgeworth Court. I would highly recommend you include this care home on a list of possibilities."

"My wife has been a resident of Badgeworth since 4th May 2014 and in that time there has been four appointed managers and two or three temporary placements. It is only now that we have a manager to match the original incumbent. I have total confidence that my wife's specific health issues related to vascular dementia are being met by the nursing staff. In the past, from 2016 to the appointment of the current manager it was extremely difficult to get continuous, quality nursing care, particularly due to the lack of health care records being updated and the amount of agency nursing staff not having clarity of my wife's medicine needs and application. Now, I note the impact on my wife, POSITIVE. There is still a person there."

"I visit my grandparents regularly here, they are both residents. Sadly Grandma passed away this week. She was ill for a few weeks before this. During this whole period, all staff and management have been wonderful. They supported ALL of my family and were extremely respectful of the trauma that we were going through. This standard continues now my Grandma has passed, the concern and attention given to my Grandad and my Mum is extremely appreciated."

"I cannot commend Badgeworth Court highly enough. My parents are both residents here. Sadly my mum passed away earlier this week. The staff were so supportive, compassionate and very committed both to caring for mum in her last few days but ensuring my dad was supported too. As their daughter, I was regularly kept informed of mum’s condition and involved closely with any changes in her care plan. All staff, from kitchen, housekeeping, care staff and management were so caring and made such a big difference to this whole wearing, harrowing period. I could not have asked for more and if I had, I know they would have done anything to accommodate the family’s wishes."

"My mother has been in this care home for almost six months. After a very bad fall and a five-week stay in hospital, the family were left with no choice but to find a suitable care home. She was very poorly and could not communicate very well. The care here has been excellent and she is a different person. The carers are so friendly and dedicated and will go out of their way to make sure the residents are happy and cared for. We have never regretted our decision in choosing this care home."

"My mother-in-law was 'admitted' after several incidents put her into big a risk to be left at home. She is very happy here. Keeps saying how lovely the carers are, how beautiful the building is, fantastic food. She is a trying resident as she needs lots of one-to-one care. But the carers are really working her out and are doing their best. After 2 hard months, she is now showing signs of really settling in - remembering her room and toilet for example."

"Dad came into Badgeworth after a pretty traumatic time in hospital. We told him he was being moved to a hotel - and he really believes it! Mum is still in their bungalow but visits daily and has become much of a fixture at Badgeworth too. So much so that we held Mum and Dad’s 70th Wedding anniversary celebration in the lounge. The staff were amazing and my parents had the best time! We can’t fault the environment or the staff and would highly recommend Badgeworth Court to anyone."

"My dad moved to Badgeworth Court 5 weeks ago. He has terminal cancer and the decision to move him to a nursing home from the hospice was a very hard one. My dad struggled with the move and refused all support. I asked to meet with staff to discuss this, and expressed the importance of my dad maintaining his independence. The staff really respected this and worked with us as a family. They even arranged for us to watch the Super Bowl in the lounge until 2 am and provided snacks and a Canadian flag in honour of my dad! My dad's health has since declined significantly, and I am at the home on a daily basis. The staff have been very considerate and made us feel very welcome. This includes giving us full use of the kitchen and communal rooms, bringing cups of tea and cake and providing emotional support. The only recommendation I have is it would be good if less notice could be given to order to eat with a resident, as visitors don’t always know plans a week in advance."

"Just to say a big thank you to everyone at Badgewoth Court Care Centre for the perfect Christmas lunch today. My mum and I had a wonderful time with my Nan. We were served by the General Manager. My nan has been in the home for over two months now. The staff are so kind and helpful. The carers are always available and happy to help. A big thank you to all the catering staff (lovely food) and to the nurses, just amazing, 120%. Also to housekeeping and the ladies who did the laundry. Thank you to all of you! Cannot expect any better service from anywhere else."

"I visited my grandma in Badgeworth Court Care Centre today. This is the first time I have ever been into a care home. It looked and felt like a five start hotel. The residents had their Christmas dinner in a restaurant like dining room. My grandmother seemed much happier. She was over the moon when the staff delivered her presents to her table. The staff all dressed up in Christmas costumes and they were very busy but happy. The home was full of joy. I am amazed to see so many families sharing lunch with their love ones. The traditional Christmas menu brought so many memories of past happy times."

"My brother has always been well cared for at the home over the last seven years. There was a brief period when a temporary manager covered after the permanent manager left, when I was concerned that my brother's care plan was not implemented. I now feel that he is physically and emotionally really well cared for and the communication with/of the home has greatly improved. At weekends there seems to be less staff around and therefore less support of my brother."

"In early January my mother who was suffering from Alzheimer's disease became ill with pneumonia. The care provided in the home was exemplary. We had said that we didn't want her to go to hospital and this was agreed by the home. She was nursed in her room by qualified nurses, including the rapid response team until her death. Her family was with her for the whole period. She was prescribed medicines in including palliative care medicines but these were not needed. She had a completely peaceful, stress-free death, in familiar surroundings with her family by her side. I was very happy with how things happened."

"My father, who was diagnosed with Alzheimers, was looked after at home by my mother until his condition worsened and we had to find a nursing home. I cannot speak highly enough of the staff on the Norwood Unit at Badgeworth. It was an emotional time for all the family and we felt hugely supported and confident that all Dad's needs were being met. Everyone was kind, caring and professional. They informed us immediately of changes to Dad's condition and treated him accordingly. In the last days of Dad's life, they were a great comfort to us and treated him with great care and compassion. I think we were very fortunate to have found such a lovely home for Dad and it certainly helped Mum come to terms with losing her husband of 65 years."

Their care was so tailored to their needs it was excellent with time being made available for them to spend quality time together. Sadly my father passed away in July. He said that his care had been "too good". He was very content and the staff went the extra mile to ensure this. They helped my mother come to terms with his passing and she is now calm and enjoying the activities and the company. She says "they spoil you here". The family could not have asked for more."
