Life at Icknield Court Care Home

Valuing, respecting and ensuring residents feel at home is at the heart of all we do, combined with providing first-class care and support by a highly trained and dedicated team. We are proud of the wonderful links we have built within the local community of Prince Risborough – Christmas being a great example - when volunteers from the local area help out at the home and join in with all of our festivities. We also work in partnership with the local Rainbow group, Guides and the local church. Two enclosed courtyard gardens and surrounding grass areas provide an attractive and stimulating haven for residents. These open spaces are ideal for more active individuals who can take a gentle walk or get involved in gardening activities, particularly in the summertime.

Testimonials: how residents feel about our care

My mother has been here now for two weeks and I have found the care home excellent. It is clean and well-maintained, food looks good and facilities are excellent. I find the staff very pleasant, helpful, polite and respectful. My sister and I feel that we could not have found a better home for our mother.

- Review from P. H. (Son of Resident) published on 15 March 2023 with a five star rating

My father has just spent a week in respite care to allow me to go on holiday, and I must say his care was amazing. The facilities were great, and the home is clean and very well looked after. The staff are truly wonderful, each and every one of them; they do an amazing job and are so helpful in every 

way. Only one small thing some of the younger staff members struggled to get Dad’s hearing in, and without them, he is deaf.

He said the food was great, he enjoyed every meal, and the rooms were bright and clean, but I would suggest taking your own TV in if your loved one is in respite. He loved the activities, said one lady and the team were fantastic and made him feel very welcome and part of everything, so a huge thank you to her for doing such a great job. You even had him singing, which he has not done since my mum passed away. The manager was also very helpful, as I had never put Dad into respite before; he was very helpful with all my questions. I would recommend this home to anyone in the future.
