Forest Court Care Home
The Location
Forest Court is surrounded by glorious landscaped grounds situated in the picturesque countryside near Ross-on-Wye, just outside the village of Mitcheldean. Originally a private house it still retains many of its original period features, but has also been regularly thoroughly modernised to offer residents comfortable accommodation with full lift access throughout.Â
Our Objectives
We want our residents to feel at home with us no matter how long or short their stay. We aim to create a friendly and caring environment where residents are able to live the lifestyle they wish to.
Forest Court maintains the highest standard of care, yet we realise the importance of striking a balance between providing care when needed and helping the resident be as independent as possible as our home is designed to encourage mobility in a safe and supportive environment.
Types of Care
At Forest Court we are one of the leading providers of specialist Dementia Nursing Care as we focus on the individual and choices. We also provide Respite, Palliative and Convalescence Care. Personalised, expert care is based upon the person first, with staff building a detailed picture of the residents life. Our nursing equipment such as profiling beds, moving & handling equipment is updated frequently to ensure we are able to cater to our resident needs in the safest possible way.
A care home must be a home from home as much as possible as this is what Forest Court Care is all about. Sometimes it is the little things that can make all the difference in making sure that the residents enjoy a real quality of life.

What Our Client Say
Dad is 92-years-old and has Alzheimer's. He has been at Forest Court since August 2019. Whenever I visit unannounced, I find him smiling, warm and smartly dressed. To simply sit holding his hand while we enjoy a pot of tea and biscuits; is a total joy after the exhaustion and worry of caring for Dad
My husband has been in this care home since October with dementia. His care has been marvellous. Through the illness, he is very aggressive at times they calm him and treat him so well. I don't know where we would be without them. Nothing is too much trouble. They give me support as well.
This was our first choice of care home, and we were so lucky to get Mum in. The staff are very caring, and the treatment was excellent. Mum was always treated with respect and love. The home is friendly and welcoming. The staff always keep you informed and involved in decisions.
The care my mum had from the staff I could not fault it in my eyes they were all angels. On visiting her we were always made very welcomed and offered refreshments and whoever let us in always knew where mum was. It broke my heart to see how quickly she deteriorated but the staff always found the time to talk to me and reassure me.
Since my uncle was moved from his previous care home. The specialist care he has received has been exemplary. This is by far the best home we have seen and had dealings with. The staff are always friendly and welcoming and are excellent at managing difficult behaviour.
During my husband's stay, the staff and the care he receives have been excellent. When I arrive to see him, everyone is very welcoming, also friends and family say the same.
This is the best care home I have had dealings with. The staff are friendly and show genuine concern for the residents. Management are very approachable and easy to deal with. Residents are well looked after.
Mum could be challenging and stubborn, but the staff dealt with her admirably, coaxing and cajoling and offering a cup of team whenever she was upset. We were very happy with the care and compassion given to her by all of the staff. Residents are well looked after.
Forest Court has been my mother's home for a decade. It is a wonderful place. The staff and management have been excellent in every way.
The staff are always very welcoming and friendly. During a recent illness, my husband was very well cared for. I felt I could trust them to look after him. The home is always clean and fresh. I have no personal experience of the food but my husband always says he had enjoyed his lunch. The cakes look fantastic.
I've agonized about how to express my thanks, for the care my dear husband received at your care home. Absolutely nothing would be worthy of your superb care. So many fantastic nurses, who really, I'm afraid to mention by name for fear of missing someone out. Your carers who went beyond to to make Derek comfortable, especially towards the end. His hair, nails and cleanliness (was always impeccably) Your care and concern for me...the cups of tea, offers of food, and the odd biscuit there to tempt me. None of my words seem adequate for my appreciation, of FOREST COURT CARE HOME.
