Overall Experience

It was lovely visiting Mum as everyone was very helpful and put us at ease. Mum was washed and had fresh clothes on every day. They made her smile, which was lovely to see. On our last day, they treated Mum with care and dignity. Thank you to all concerned.

Reply from David Mclean, Customer Service Adviser at Chilton Meadows Care Home

Thank you for your kind words. We are very happy to hear you can feel at ease with your Mum in our care. It is always nice to hear words like "care" and "dignity" being used to describe our care. Thank you for your recent visit, we will certainly pass your comments on to the manager.

Overall Experience

My elderly mother needed nursing care after discharge from another hospital stay and we chose Chilton Meadows as it had an available bed and was quite local. We are so glad that we did, as the care and attention shown to her, and us as a family, over her last weeks was amazing. We could not have asked

for more.
All the staff went above and beyond to ensure she was comfortable, clean, and as happy as she could be and when we came to visit her made us feel very welcome. When she passed away, they were very supportive of us all and allowed us time and space both to be with her and also to sit and grieve. We cannot thank the manager and her team enough for helping her last days to be the best that they could be.

Reply from Maria Ricketts, Customer Care Adviser at Chilton Meadows Care Home

Thank you for your kind words. We are saddened to hear about your loss. We hope Chilton Meadows care home did everything possible to make the transition as easy as possible. Hopefully you will go away from this feeling like your loved one received the best possible care.

Overall Experience

Our experience with Chiltern Meadows was only for a few weeks, but was at a time leading up to our mother's death.

Our experience was only positive.

Mum was moved to Chilton Meadows from hospital as she needed constant care and help, beyond what we were able to give her as family. From day

one we knew she was in good and caring hands.

All the staff were really attentive and took a genuine interest, to ensure she was as comfortable and cared for as she could be. She was checked regularly, and with respect.

What also struck us, was the way the staff made us, as family, feel cared for. Always a friendly greeting or " can I help you", which made our experience so much easier.

Thank you to everyone at Chiltern Meadows for all your care, concern and guidance.

We would not hesitate to recommend.

Overall Experience

My dad was residing at Chilton Meadows, Constable Suite, since December 2023 until his death in March 2025. I am a consultant geriatrician and I have visited many care homes. Never have I seen such a caring, wonderful and homely environment. All the staff were absolutely wonderful with dad, and he was

so beautifully cared for. A huge thanks to everyone, what an amazing team! A special thank you to the manager and her team.

Overall Experience

My father in law spent just over the last years of his life at Chilton Meadows Care Home, Constable House. From looking round to his last day the home and staff could not have been better. They recognised what a tough time it was, and made his moving in so smooth. They cared for him superbly, getting

to know him and his needs. All the staff were caring and we could not have wished for better. Particular thanks to the carer who went above and beyond. When he entered the last days of his life after another big stroke they palliated him superbly, respecting his wishes, keeping him comfortable, and caring for the family. Thank you all so much.

Reply from Fran Donno, Customer Service Adviser at Chilton Meadows Care Home

Thank you for your kind feedback. We are glad that we were able to help you and your family through such a tough time. We are pleased to hear that you and your family felt supported through these times and that your Father In Law was comfortable. Hopefully you will go away from this feeling like your loved one received the best possible care.

Very good, excellent care given in all departments. My husband could not have had better care. He was very settled and happy in your care and I'm sure we made the right decision choosing your home. All in we as a family of my husband could not have had better treatment of my husband and us as relatives.

Overall Experience

My mother moved to Chilton Meadows in February this year. She has cancer in several parts of her body and is unable to continue living independently. From the very first moment she arrived, her care has been exemplary. The team at Constable House asked for some information about Mum's life so they could

have meaningful conversations with her. She has been and continues to be treated with the utmost respect and love. I am so happy we found Chilton Meadows where Mum is happy, comfortable, and above all, cared for in a family environment.

Reply from Rosie Smith, Customer Advisor at Chilton Meadows Care Home

Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a wonderful review for the staff at Chilton Meadows. We are thrilled that your mother has settled into Chilton Meadows so well and that you feel she is in a "family environment", this is always our aim. It is great to hear words such as "respect", "exemplary" and "love" when describing Chilton Meadows. We hope that your mother continues to enjoy her stay within the home and are sure the team will keep up their brilliant work!

The carers in Gainsborough House are exceptional and go above and beyond to look after the residents. On the downside, the quality of the food, both ingredients and cooking leaves a lot to be desired. Overall, I would recommend Chilton Meadows.

We appreciate you taking the time to leave us your comments. We are very happy to hear that overall you can feel at ease with your loved one in our care. Our resident's health and well-being are an absolute priority, so we will discuss your feedback with the home's manager to help them continually improve their service.

Overall Experience

Since Dad arrived at the home, the staff have been friendly and supportive. If Dad has a fall or medication change, then the nurse in charge has contacted me. My dad nearly always needs a shave when I visit which I presume is due to not having enough staff. One thing that most frustrated my family,

is that Dad's slippers always went missing, ever though they were named. We've bought five pairs of slippers. Most of the time there are none in his room for him to wear. The singing entertainment has been very good. Sometimes staff can be on the phoes too much.

The care home is excellently run in all areas. My husband is very happy there and the attention to his needs at all times is very good. The staff work very hard to accommodate all possible things to be done for all the residents. Everything that is done for the residents and my husband cannot be faulted.

My husband and I feel very lucky that he has the care that he receives from them.

Cannot complain, a lot of staff, most, are very helpful and friendly. Would like to say a big thank you to the activities. More of different choices are possible on menu? A lot of money, but I'm guessing down to the government.

Mum has been a resident since September 2023 and has settled remarkably well. This is due to the care and consideration of all the staff, both to her and us, her family. Being a small family unit it means so much to us all, and we now feel part of a much bigger, loving family. The patience and care

by all staff members is more than we could have wished for. Thank you.

My mother went into Munnings House, initially for respite care in February 2023. She is now a permanent resident. The staff have been absolutely amazing. Every person there, regardless of job role, go out of their way to help. They made her so welcome and show such kindness and warmth. I was supported

also in the transition of leaving my mum. Nothing is too much trouble. I know she is cared for and happy. I couldn't ask for a better home for her.
