Our Home

Welcome to Island Court

Island Court is a purpose-built home in Bilston, and one of the few Hartford Care homes to offer round-the-clock nursing support alongside residential, dementia and respite care. Fifty-five bedrooms house residents across all of these, under one roof, so a change in health never has to mean a change of address. The team takes time to learn each resident’s background, preferences and daily rhythms, so support fits around the individual rather than the other way round.

Our experienced team takes time to get to know each resident personally, working closely with families to support independence, dignity and wellbeing in everyday life. It’s often the small things that make the biggest difference: a routine respected, a preference remembered, a familiar face at mealtimes, or a family kept properly informed. Island Court is part of Hartford Care, bringing decades of experience in supporting people through this stage of life. 

Hear from our team

Welcome to Island Court, a care home in Bilston where life has a gentle, everyday rhythm. Residents are encouraged to do as much or as little as they like, whether that's a relaxed breakfast with the paper, joining in activities that our coordinators create, or simply chatting with friends in the lounge. We plan activities to suit different interests and abilities: crafts, music, games, gentle exercise, reminiscence sessions, and themed days. For those living with dementia, we use calm, familiar routines to help people feel safe and settled. Families are always welcome to pop in for a cuppa, share a meal with a loved one, or join our event, Island Court feels like extended family, not just a care home.

About the home

Community

The community and location

Bilston keeps its traditional market town feel, with local shops, cafés, and Bilston Market itself all close by. Families visiting often combine a trip with a bit of shopping, or tea and cake in town afterwards. For something further afield, the Black Country Living Museum in nearby Dudley offers 26 acres of recreated shops, houses, and workshops from the region's industrial past, a genuine trip down memory lane. Wolverhampton city centre is also within easy reach, with its theatre, art gallery, and parks, and good bus and tram links across the West Midlands make visiting straightforward for families.

My mom entered Island Court for two weeks’ respite in March 2026 when my dad was taken into the hospital. After this, she has remained a permanent resident. She has settled well and appears content. When my dad needed step-down care from the hospital, Island Court worked hard to accommodate this and relieve pressure on us as a family, having both parents in one place. All the staff are lovely.
