Overall Experience

My wife's son was here for 15-plus years at the beginning of the year he was diagnosed with bowel cancer and in the last couple of months things took a turn for the worst and we laid him to rest on the 3rd of September 2024. All the staff were so good and he was so well looked after it was unbelievable

the way they not only helped him but the amount of support that they gave us the Manager is so supportive to all the list of staff is so long but we can not sing their praises enough.

Overall Experience

Recently have had my relative moved to this care home. Home is clean and homelike, residents are well cared for and always clean. The rooms are absolutely beautiful and done to the taste of the individual. Both residents and staff seem happy to be there. Residents are taken out on days out frequently

and I know my relative seems to have settled in here very quickly.
Staff keep me informed and involve me in choices made for my relative with pictures and updates. The manager is fantastic and very helpful.

Review of
Little Orchard
from J P (Brother of Resident) published on 24 January 2022

Overall Experience

My brother has been a resident in this home for twenty years and the staff have always been very caring. Under the management of the new Manager, the home has gone through a cycle of improvement which has benefited both the residents and staff. There is a great vibe in this special place and if you

are going through the agonising decision of where to place your much loved relative I can't recommend it enough. A massive thanks to all the great staff my brother and I will miss you.

Review of
Charmanden Road
from Caroline B (Mother of Resident) published on 7 October 2021

Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My daughter was moved to the home as her last placement was not suitable or safe, she was not in a very good way, this all happened during Covid. The staff have been wonderful taking care of her daily needs whilst getting to know her, encouraging her to eat, drink and make choices and developing her

confidence. She is like a new person now, very happy, eats, drinks goes out, now going to staff for a cuddle or for any needs she may have. The staff also supported us as a family when we had little trust because of what had happened in the past home. The home is small, friendly and inviting, everyone is treated as an individual, rooms are decorated to each individuals choice. We are grateful to all the staff for all the effort they have put into making my daughter feel safe and of value, for giving her a life of choices and fun-filled days. Thank you all at Charmandean Road Care Home.

Review of
Cherrycroft
from Lawrence M (Brother of Resident) published on 4 December 2020

Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Cherrycroft is a wonderful place for my brother to live. The home is welcoming, well-designed, and light and airy.
My brother has severe epilepsy and LD.
The manager runs a tight shift - her staff are efficient but also take the time to really get to know the residents as individuals. Their record-keeping

and medication training is superb. Inevitable mistakes that occur from time to time are addressed and the focus is on continuous improvement. She and the staff listen to the needs of residents and the concerns of relatives.
My brother has lived at Cherrycroft for a number of years now and is very happy.
The home has been especially supportive during these difficult Covid lockdown months.

Reply from Alice Cuckow, Recruitment Marketing Coordinator at Cherrycroft

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review with us. We would like to echo your sentiments.
The team at Cherrycroft have continued to be as creative as possible to ensure the people they support have a positive experience during lockdown. The team have kept the people we support active and focused with garden activities, making good use of the environment. The manager and her team do a great job to ensure the people they support at Cherrycroft have the best lives possible.

Overall Experience

My son has lived at Maldon House for a number of years. He is extremely happy there and all his needs are met. It is definately a home, not just a house. There is a new manager in place who has made great strides to make Maldon House a wonderful place to live.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this lovely review, we really value feedback and we will ensure it gets shared with the manager and staff team at Maldon House.

Review of
Winchester House
from Cathy G (Mother of Resident) published on 12 August 2020

Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Although I have highlighted March 2020, this has been ongoing since then ( Covid 19). My son has in my opinion been in the safest hands possible. The reason I am bringing this to your attention today is due to receiving - delivered to my door! - the most fantastic present any parent would wish to receive;

my son is severely autistic and one of his Senior care workers, complied a beautiful album of photographs, lovely off the cuff remarks, poetry and the things that memories are made of for me on my birthday. This was, as you will be aware, really poignant, as I haven't seen my son since March 21st. I would like to personally thank all of you for your complete dedication and in particular the senior care worker for just knowing what a mum wants ... You are all brilliant!

Reply from Alice Cuckow, Recruitment Marketing Coordinator at Winchester House

Thank you for taking the time to write such a wonderful review of the service at Winchester House. The staff were absolutely thrilled to receive such kind and positive feedback from you. We are extremely proud of our dedicated staff who continue to seek new and creative ways to ensure that the people we support continue to be engaged and maintain their family connection which is so important particularly during these unprecedented times.

Charmanden Road
from Rosario M (Father of Resident) published on 22 January 2020

Overall Experience

They are not professionals, always changing staff. The residents, lots of times, were left on their own, the staff were always in the garden smoking not looking after the residents. In 17 years they have changed 14 managers - is very badly run. Now a new company has taken over, hope it will get better.

Review of
Tuscany House
from Kirstin M (Mother of Resident) published on 25 June 2018

Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

The staff at Tuscany House are dedicated, friendly, and always put the residents first. My son first arrived nearly two years ago. He has been so happy. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff. My son does so many activities and goes out so much. The person-centred care is amazing, from promoting

dignity to encouraging independence. Thank you Tuscany House for taking such amazing care of my treasured son.

West Dean

Overall Experience

My Nan is very happy at this home. She was taken ill in hospital and lost her independence. She was told she would have to go into a care home. At first she was reluctant but the staff and other residents made her feel at home. She told me that it is now her home and it feels like she has another family.

She enjoys the activity especially the parties they have. It is really reassuring that she is so happy at the home.

Overall Experience

We find all the staff very helpful and patient with the guests at the home. My aunt is well cared for always clean and tidy, her bedroom is also clean with no smells in it. They keep the guests well entertained and active which is good to see. We go into the home on different days of the week and different

times of the day and all is well, whenever we go we cannot fault this home in any way.

Reply from Marie Hawkes, Head of Marketing at Winchester House

Thank you very much for taking the time to post this review. I know the team at Winchester will be delighted with your feedback as they work very hard to make it the best home they can for all the people they support there.

Overall Experience

I have visited a friend on a regular basis for 4/5 years and now also volunteer to help with activities. We have a knitting group, craft, keep fit, entertainment and a regular monthly communion service. Another popular event is lunch at a local pub on monthly basis. I am made to feel as welcome by all

the staff. It is very good to see how some some residents have improved from just sitting to gradually joining in activities according to their ability.

Overall Experience

My mother moved into Larklands & Church View 3 months ago and prior to this myself and my family had made inquiries/viewed other care homes in the area. From the moment we walked into Larklands & Church View we knew mum would receive the best and care as the staff are very welcoming and friendly and

we knew she would be happy here.
