Abbey Court Care Home
Nestled in the beautiful market town of Leek, Abbey Court Care Home holds a very special place in the history of Knights Care. It was the very first home in the Knights Care family and marks the beginning of a journey that continues today.
Abbey Court continues to lead by example and remains a flagship home within the Knights Care family. The home is proudly accredited under the Gold Standards Framework (GSF), a nationally recognised programme that recognises excellence in end-of-life care. Achieving and maintaining this accreditation demonstrates the team's unwavering commitment to delivering compassionate, dignified and person-centred care, ensuring residents receive the highest standard of support while giving families confidence that their loved ones are cared for with sensitivity, respect and professionalism.
Every resident at Abbey Court is treated as an individual, with personalised care delivered by a dedicated team of highly qualified registered nurses, experienced care assistants and skilled support staff. Continuity of care is one of the home's greatest strengths, with several members of the team having devoted more than 20 years of service to Abbey Court.
Life at Abbey Court is about far more than excellent clinical care. Residents enjoy a warm, welcoming atmosphere and a vibrant programme of activities designed to promote wellbeing and meaningful social interaction. From engaging in-house activities and community outings to seasonal celebrations, weekly visits from the hairdresser and gentle armchair exercise sessions led by a local gym trainer, every day offers opportunities for enjoyment, companionship and fulfilment.
Family is at the heart of everything Abbey Court does. The home's open-door policy means loved ones are free to visit whenever it suits them, helping to maintain close family connections and providing complete peace of mind.

The nurses here work closely with relatives to reassure and are very open to keeping us informed around any changes in her care needs. The staff have spent time with Mum getting to know her and are always caring of her and us when we visit. It's always clean in her room and across the home. It's nice to feel you can get to know the staff who are regulars and tend to stay there which to me is a good sign.
I'm so pleased my Mum came to you at the beginning of last October, you as a team are outstanding . I never feel like anything is any trouble for any of you and the relationship we have built between ourselves with Mum first and foremost is fabulous.
Drovers Call has helped me to come to terms with my husband being in care as I know he is so well cared for and I am always kept informed of any issues and changes in care. Thank you Drovers Call!
I would like to thank you all for the care of our dad and grandad. End-of-life care was excellent. So comfortable and clean, excellent. The staff treated him like family. At the very end, you all gave him dignity and peace. You will be thanked forever by all our family. I recommend anyone with an elderly relative who needs the care to place them here, your mind will be at peace.
I just wanted to say how pleased we are that Mam seems to be settling nicely. We are so pleased with the care she gets from all of your wonderful staff - especially as we live so far away
