As a visitor for the first time, I was very impressed with this facility. There are so many things to stimulate the residents.
It is a shame that all care facilities are not up to this standard.
Thank you for the care you are giving.

Royal Star & Garter - Solihull
from David B (Son of Resident) published on 23 January 2026 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My Mother is a resident and my Father was briefly there for 'end of life' palliative care.
The home and staff are simply wonderful. Mum has early-stage dementia and her condition presents challenges. The friendly staff have always treated her with great respect and dignity and the management/nursing

teams are always seeking to make Mum's time there as comfortable and interesting as possible.
We could not have wished for a better place for my Dad to pass away. The care and compassion shown to my Father as he gradually slipped away was truly outstanding and of great comfort to us as a family at a very difficult time.
On a practical level the food, restaurant and entertainment are brilliant, the home and Mum's room are always very clean and the laundry service is very efficient. I am confident this home sets the bar for exceptional care - well done team Royal Star and Garter!

Reply from Katie McCauley, Regsitered home manager at Royal Star & Garter - SolihullThank you so much for taking the time to share your kind and thoughtful feedback. It truly means a great deal to all of us.
We are honoured that you entrusted us with the care of both your parents. Knowing that your mother feels respected, supported and comfortable, and that our team has been able to respond sensitively to her needs, is incredibly important to us.
We are also deeply touched by your words regarding your father's end-of-life care. Supporting residents and families during such a difficult time is a responsibility we take very seriously, and we are grateful to know that the compassion and care shown to your father brought comfort to you and your family. Your recognition of our staff, as well as the environment, food, activities and practical services, will be shared with the whole team, as feedback like this is a real source of pride and encouragement.
On behalf of everyone at Royal Star & Garter, thank you again for your kind words and trust.

Overall Experience

My mother has been at the Royal Star & Garter High Wycombe since January 2022 and I visit regularly from Autstralia. My recent visit was the result of a fall my mother had. I have always found the staff treat mum with outstanding care and compassion. Most importantly Mum is treated with the utmost of

dignity. Living so far away hand on heart I know I leave my mum in the best of hands every time I leave which is never easy. I am always made to feel so welcome too.

Reply from Reggie Ballos, Home Manager - High Wycombe at Royal Star & Garter - High WycombeThank you so much for sharing your heartfelt feedback. We truly appreciate your kind words and the trust you place in us to care for your mum. It means a great deal to know that you feel reassured, especially living so far away, and that our team's compassion and commitment to dignity have made such a difference. We're delighted that you always feel welcome when you visit, creating a warm and supportive environment for families is just as important to us as caring for our residents. I will share your lovely message with the team, as it's a wonderful reminder of why we do what we do.

Overall Experience

I'm impressed with the quality of care and the whole environment. Particularly, I would highlight the social activities, medical care and quality of food. The staff are uniformly pleasant and upbeat, and take a personal interest in the residents. We really enjoy going for walks in the well-tended gardens,

and we have used the little room in the garden for private parties. My mother-in-law rates the food highly, especially the home-made soups. The staff are courteous, well trained and encouraging. We feel lucky to have found this residential home with its superior ethos.

The care here is consistently fabulous. My father has severe Alzheimer's been here for just short of 2 years and throughout he has been lovingly cared for - and we also feel supported and cared for when we find it tough. Dad has been settled and content from very early on and his challenges are managed

intelligently, thoughtfully and reflect his changing condition.
The events are varied and inclusive and residents are included and it is evident that the who team at the home understand and believe in the idea of residents doing as much as they are able as long as they are able. Dignity and respect are key too.

from Lee W (Father of Resident) published on 2 December 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My son has now been at Care for Veterans for 2.5 years and I wouldn't wish for him to be anywhere else. The care is superb. The staff are exceedingly friendly and accommodating. My son is a complex case and unable to communicate but the staff all talk to him as normal, and have gotten familiar with

his nuances, as if they were his family. The home itself has a wide range of facilities, and although he is unable to participate with all of them, he is always considered. They have in-house physio and the team there are commendable, working with him and helping him to improve. Communication from the team is excellent, with ourselves being kept abreast of his progress. Although my son is unable to attend the dining room, I have noted how well it is laid out and feels more homely, with residents even able to have a glass of wine with dinner. Even the facilities management team have a personal approach, always saying hello direct to my son and engaging with him. Couldn't wish for better.

Reply from Pauline Jones, Commissioning and Placements Officer at Care for VeteransThank you for leaving such a positive review and for your kind words. I am so pleased that your son is benefitting from some of the therapies available to him. I will pass your kind comments onto the staff involved.

Overall Experience

Care for Veterans is a wonderful care home. They really do care about the residents welfare and wellbeing. My mother has led a very active life and Care for Veterans has provided stimulation, through a timetable of events in the social hub, physio therapy session and gym classes. They also provide other

health care support linked to the NHS, as well as beautician treatments. They actively seek feedback which is acted upon promptly. As you walk around the home staff always great you with a smile, including the reception which runs efficiently. My mother has a chance to go on regular outings and attend community fayres held for seasonal occasions.

Overall Experience

From my initial approach to Care for Veterans Worthing and through to my Mum being accepted into the home both my sister and I have experienced a warm, caring and friendly response.
As a veteran myself, Gifford House was my first thought when the issue of Mum going into care arose and particularly

as Mum had, in times past volunteered there. The assessment was carried out very quickly and there was no issue with Mum being eligible and being accepted.
Although we are only in the early weeks of her residency, Mum has benefited from exceptionally attentive care and compassion in a very clean environment. All the staff we have met have been lovely and the nursing care she has received has improved a long-standing issue which is an excellent result.
I can only say that we as a family are very pleased thus far and more than satisfied Mum is in good hands.

Reply from Pauline Jones, Commissioning and Placements Officer at Care for VeteransThank you for taking the time to leave such lovely comments and I am so pleased to hear that you have noticed improvements with mum since she has been in our care.

My Mum has recently become a resident. From our initial viewing to see whether we thought it would be a good place for Mum, we were very impressed. The home has such a lovely welcoming atmosphere for residents and visitors. My Mum has been made to feel so cared for - she said all the staff have

been so kind and can't do enough for her. Even though she has only been there for a few weeks now, our family have seen an improvement in both her physical appearance and cognitively, as she has more daily activities to participate in. The activities are tailored so that all abilities can join in.
My daughter has a background in care and says it's the nicest home she's ever been in!
