Care Homes Owned by Ascot Residential Homes Ltd in Berkshire

My mother loves singing and used to be in a choir, we were so touched that they recognised this and asked her to sing with another member of staff at the recent carol concert. That is just one example of the ethos at St Christopher's of treating residents as individuals. Visiting Mum is a happy experience because she is so settled and the staff are so welcoming.
The home is beautifully maintained with the look of a well appointed private house with lovely bathrooms.
As my mother has Alzheimer's it has been a worrying time. Moving here has changed the situation for the better to the extent that her Alzheimer's has remained stable since she came to the home in April '24.

all permanent, well trained and rotated on occasions between St Christopher's and the adjacent their sister site to provide continuity of care and cover over the long term. There is good communication between staff on the different rotas and I especially notice how cheery and on the ball the night shifters are. My experience of the staff is that they are respectful to residents, kind and conscientious.

cannot thank them enough for the fantastic care given to my Dad.

Many staff have said that St David's has come to feel like their family; indeed, my wife and I now very much feel the same.
Great efforts are undertaken to ensure the residents are entertained, and the owners go out of their way to hold community events for the family and friends of the residents.
The building is old and not purpose-built, but well-developed plans are underway to mitigate this through the new building and extending it.
My wife and I have now had three of our four parents in St David's and would happily recommend it to people's loved ones.

grounds and wonderful catering. When Mum's health began to deteriorate, both the medical care and pastoral care were excellent and the communication with the family was very clear and concise. All through the COVID pandemic, we were able to maintain contact with Mum. Over the past couple of years, Mum was on end-of-life care, which was thoughtful and sensitive. All her needs were met without fail. Mum passed away peacefully in October and even in her final hours the staff went the extra mile for both her and the family. We cannot praise or thank everyone associated with St Christopher's enough.

recommend it too highly!

room at mealtimes. The atmosphere is very much that of a family with welcoming and caring staff.

in the way they care for Mum and also take time to get to know the families. The residents are kept busy with lots of daily activities which are captured in a monthly newsletter. There is a real community atmosphere, families are invited to join residents at events such as firework evening and summer fete and many events in the church including a carol concert and to celebrate Nurses Day.

The kindness, care, and compassion she is shown, on a daily basis is wonderful. The place is in a beautiful setting, the rooms are lovely and there is a great range of activities but, most importantly there is a personal touch in the way the staff care for and interact with the residents as individuals.

dining room space where she could enjoy the beautiful garden. I couldn't recommend it highly enough.

residents and their visitors. I can and do say with complete conviction that the care and personal respect lavished on my wife in all that time has far, far exceeded anything I might have expected. The owners are regularly in St David's, keeping in friendly contact with visiting relatives and friends and organising and participating in frequent on-site festivities and celebrations. The carers and nurses know well all my wife's little foibles, and treat her with never-failing kindness. Nothing phases or is any trouble at all to them. My wife's room is kept spick and span, plants watered, dead flowers quietly removed, and electric blinds kept in perfect order. A better nursing home is not to be found.

beautifully- to such a high standard and every requirement big or small was catered for. Chef made a beautiful cake for the occasion. Everyone was involved!

resident is treated as an individual. The staff pay great attention to the needs of the residents and if they are at all concerned about my Mother they ring immediately. The home is always very clean and everything smells fresh. My Mother has now lived at St Christopher's for two years and I'm still very pleased that we chose St Christopher's.

cared for. It has completely changed my perception of care homes from somewhere to be endured to somewhere that is enjoyed and a source of happiness.

that of a country hotel, the food varied and appetising.
The staff are kind and caring, continuity is good and we are welcomed as friends.
The grounds are glorious and beautifully kept.
Many activities are provided both inside the home, in the grounds and also trips out.
My sisters and I feel very fortunate to have found such a lovely place for our mother's remaining years.

carers are long-standing members of the team which speaks volumes! The residents really matter! They are treated beautifully and everyone smiles and says hello to residents and family members, whether it's a member of the maintenance team or cleaning crew! Special attention is made to provide favourite meals, fun and engaging activities, outings, family events and they have lots of people come in to provide entertainment! The building and grounds are immaculately maintained. Everyone is so accommodating and the care is second to none! It's a very special place!
