Reviews for Iris Court Care Home

"My Mother has been a resident at Iris Court Care Home since April and has been well looked after by the attentive and kind staff. She enjoys walking around the garden and says the food is also very good."

"Iris Court is a gem - the staff look after my Mother in such a caring and respectful way. When I visit or on the telephone they take great care in answering any queries or discussing my Mother's wellbeing. The garden is a great asset and my Mother enjoys visiting the greenhouse to see the progress of the plants. My Mother enjoys the food very much. Although my Mother doesn't join in with a large number of activities there is always a lovely variety of things put on each week for the residents."

"Mum & dad have been at Iris Court for a week now The care, compassion & dignity with they have been treated is wonderful. All the staff are so keen to help & are warm & friendly while they do it. It truly is a CARE home."

"I have been so happy since my friend become a resident of Iris Court because it seems to me my friend's needs are being met as well as possible. I have observed her room is kept in very good order, the staff treat her kindly. The organisation of meals and activities seem good and staff seem keen to engage her as much as possible in activities. The most important things are kindness and respect, and they seem to be in place."

"Mum's time here was shorter than we would have liked. The staff were amazing from start to finish. She came in difficult circumstances and at short notice. The management were extremely helpful. Mum adored the care staff who were always so kind and patient. The food and coffee were amazing! Thank you so much!"

"This was my first visit to Barchester Iris Court. I was very impressed with everything I saw from the moment I got there. The rooms were immaculate, the staff were friendly and extremely attentive. As somebody who has worked in nursing homes, locally, for 17 years I can justly say this is the best I have seen. Congratulations to the owners and staff."

"Can't recommend Iris Court enough. The team and management are so kind and attentive to everyone's needs. The accommodation and grounds are truly stunning. The attention to detail and accommodation of food preferences are second to none. The activities team are amazing and work tirelessly every day to organise activities that the residents enjoy."

"From the moment nan moved into Barchester Iris Court, I was immediately impressed with the staff and facilities. Every member of staff is always warm, welcoming and genuinely cares about each and every resident. As someone who was always adamant that they wouldn't move into a care facility, nan has settled in better than I could have hoped or imagined and I think that in itself is a testament to the staff and level of care delivered at Iris Court. Nan even refers to Iris Court as home now! I have already recommended Iris Court to those looking for a care facility for themselves or a loved one and will continue to do so in the future."

My husband came into Iris Court a few days ago for respite whilst I have surgery. From the initial enquiry through to him entering the home, he and I have been so well treated. The carers are very attentive as are all the staff. He has a lovely room and the whole building is beautifully decorated, more like a hotel than a care home. Every room has an ensuite shower room, so lovely and private. There’s even a coffee shop for residents and visitors. There are beautiful gardens with good quality garden furniture so residents can chill out outside when the weather is good. The food is fantastic and I’ve joined my husband twice for dinner. It is the loveliest care home I have ever visited and I would highly recommend it.

"My father could not have been cared for better. He was encouraged to join in the many activities that they put on. Medical care could not have been better. General care could not have been better. General care could not have been better. Personal care could not have been better. In the time he was there, he considered it his home. As a visitor any time of day, coffee and cake always available on tap. Overall a dignified, safe and balanced way for my father to be cared for and we as a family never had to worry about him in anyway."

"My mum has been at Iris Court Carehome since the beginning of July and all the staff have been wonderful. The attention to detail is 100%. I can already see that my Mum is in better shape after just the few weeks of being at Iris Court. They are so kind, caring, super efficient and a very happy passionate team and peace of mind for me that Mum is being given exceptional care. Thank you to all the Team at Iris Court."

"Mother-in-law has only been in Barchester Iris Court a short time as she was moved from another care home. Despite only being here a short time, her well-being seems to be much improved, which I can only put down to the wonderful care and support she is receiving. Keep up the good work and thanks for your kind support from all members of staff."

"Barchester Iris Court has welcomed my mother with open arms. My mother, who has Alzheimer's, was nervous about coming but she has settled in and has made friends with some of the other residents. Mum was unable to live alone and now she has more than just new friendships, she is busy every day rather than just sitting on her own at home. The activities program is varied and they cater according to the residents' suggestions. They also prompt the residents to join in each time. Everyone is friendly and welcoming and they all get to know the family who visits too. The food is good and there is a variety of dishes, the main being at lunchtime. Any time I have had a worry about Mum (which is to be expected at the beginning) I have been listened to and the carers have offered feedback on her progress."

"On arrival, my first impressions were an outstanding building and beautiful gardens. The staff are friendly and helped us to realise our mother would be well looked after. This is her third day and are well impressed with her continuing progress."

Yesterday I had the pleasure of visiting this Beautiful care home. I was made very welcome by all the lovely staff. The Carehome is set in Beautiful surroundings. The home is beautifully decorated with gorgeous furnishings. The staff were very attentive to the residents needs. I would be very happy to have a loved one living here as I know they'd receive the care & love they deserve. Thanks to you all for making me so welcome & giving me the experience of visiting your beautiful home.

"In about three months I have learned to enjoy this home as my calm, happy home and building on things learnt and planned to wider fellow residents."

"Beautiful location, very restful and peaceful with first-class facilities. Staff are all very friendly and various activities to do."
