Overview

Welcome to St John’s Court, a distinguished Victorian Grade II listed building with a captivating view of Bromsgrove. Steeped in history, this architectural gem was once the vicarage to the nearby St John’s Church. Well positioned near the High Street, supermarkets, cafés, and the local park, St John’s Court provides an ideal setting for comfortable and convenient living.

With two large and comfortable lounges and a beautiful conservatory, our residents can engage in our vibrant award-winning activity program, relax, meet family and friends, or simply enjoy a favourite television program. In our dining room, we provide restaurant-style dining with nutritious home-cooked meals crafted by our skilled chefs, catering to individual tastes. Understanding the importance of residents' favourite food to encourage healthy appetites, we create a social and convivial atmosphere to ensure a well-rounded diet.

Our bedrooms feature en-suite facilities, ensuring privacy and convenience for residents and their visitors. Residents can also indulge in a trim or a whole new hairstyle without having to travel, thanks to our on-site hairdressing facilities. Our enclosed garden, both private and safe, offers a retreat for residents to enjoy. Boasting attractions for birds and wildlife, our sensory garden stimulates residents both inside and outside the home. St John’s Court stands out for its commitment to person-centred care, vibrant activity program, and warm community spirit, making it the ideal choice when looking for a home for home.

Whatever type of care is needed, the level of service will be exceptional and tailored to personal requirements. Some of our residents require help from day to day, while others appreciate extra assistance or even specialist 24-hour nursing care. Notably, our dedicated care team achieved recognition as finalists at the 2023 Great British Care Awards, attesting to the excellence we uphold in our caregiving practices.

Everything we do is specific to the individual needs of each person. We ensure that we know as much as possible about our residents’ lives including hobbies and interests, what they like as well as what they don’t. Along with their medical history and personal requirements, this valuable information makes up their own personalised and detailed care plan. This means that every member of our team comes to know the person as an individual, and we can then plan their care, exactly to their needs. Naturally, we also constantly review and revisit every care plan to make sure we make it right every time. This means that you can be assured that your loved one is receiving the highest quality of care when they need it.

At St John’s Court, our commitment to an active and engaging lifestyle goes beyond the ordinary. Our Activities Team goes the extra mile, orchestrating grand events that elevate the resident experience. Picture our lounge transformed into a winter wonderland or a 1950s diner, creating immersive environments that captivate and delight. Moreover, we are proud to announce that our Activities Lead, Ben Line, was honoured with the prestigious National Care Awards in December 2023, a testament to his exceptional dedication and contributions to enriching the lives of our residents.

We develop stimulating activities both in the home and outside. Some of these take the form of away days and trips into the community, allowing residents to savour some of Bromsgrove’s best-loved attractions. We have strong links with the local community and St John’s Court is well known within the area. We offer a range of activities including arts and crafts, music therapy, games and exercise to improve mobility, social interaction and mental stimulation. We have found that exercise is key to staying strong which in turn helps to prevent falls, whilst having fun. It is, of course, all down to individual preferences and some of our residents prefer smaller activities on a one-to-one basis with our dedicated activities team and carers.

Our chefs use fresh, seasonal ingredients sourced from local producers to create nutritious, tasty dishes for our residents to enjoy. Residents can choose from a delicious and varied gourmet menu to enjoy in our bright and airy dining spaces. Residents are encouraged to eat the meals they love and to experience new taste sensations from our creative kitchen team. On our menus, you'll find a mixture of traditional favourites, seasonal specials and international cuisines. Every week you'll find different options that have been introduced by the experts in our catering team, or specially requested by residents.

We also create a bespoke nutritional profile and meal planning for each resident, as part of the care package. If you're a relative who would like to keep track of your loved one's meals, you would be welcome to have access to our electronic care plans, which are updated in real time.
