Rayners, which was purposely built and developed in 1990 to suit older people's care needs and makes the most of a skilled and friendly team in order to achieve a very high level of customer satisfaction.
Rayners is not owned by a group and is owned and operated by the Matthews family.
All of ground floor bedrooms have been converted into the much sought after ‘Garden Terrace Rooms’ – now twenty-five rooms boasts their own patio doors onto communal gardens or private patios. A further 17 rooms and The Laurel Suite are located on the first floor.
Self-contained luxury 'assisted living apartments' have been added within the grounds of Rayners. These offer emergency 24-hour support for those who require the reassurance, security and back up of a care home, without having to enter a communal living setting.
Professionals at Rayners know that social activity is important and therefore publish a newsletter detailing varied activities and events for the forthcoming month. They encourage suggestions from residents/relatives relating to the high-class service they offer and have a 'suggestion box' on reception for this purpose.
Rayners kitchens are fitted with all the latest equipment to ensure that residents receive high quality, well-balanced meals prepared in ultra-hygienic surroundings, by qualified and experienced chefs.
The staff take great pride in their catering services and very proud to announce that they do not set budgets on food costs, whilst still supporting local trades to supply the catering team. All fresh meat is supplied by a local butcher, Kings Farm Shop in Wendover.
Rayners is situated in a tranquil setting in the Chiltern Village of Hyde Heath. They are close to the M40, M25 and M1 motorways, making it accessible for visiting.

My mother has been at Rayners since 13th May 2017. The level of care given has been superb and we've seen a marked improvement in her health since her multiple strokes in March which were followed by a stay in hospital. My father suffered a number of UTIs leading up to early April and had been admitted to hospital before eventually ending up in a different care home. We moved my father into Rayners to be with my mother on 1st January 2018. He also appears to be improving, albeit slowly. Rayners, in our opinion, has been exceptional.

My father was a resident at Rayners for over three years. He was very happy after his initial settling in period. I was always impressed with the level of care and genuine affection shown by all the staff and management. The quality of food is excellent and plentiful as required. The speciality days or evenings were of particular note and required a huge effort by everyone. I always found Rayners clean and the staff readily and cheerfully responsive to residents needs.
I thank them for making a difficult time easier for all concerned.

My mother was a resident for 15 months until her death in August 2016. Throughout this period the care she received was exemplary. There were always members of staff on hand and nothing was ever a problem or trouble. The home was always clean and tidy and the food excellent. All the residents were encouraged to drink regularly and to take part in the activities provided. During my mother's final few days we- her family- were welcomed at all times of the day and night and looked after well with kindness and compassion. I cannot praise the staff at Rayners highly enough. Thank you all!!

- Outstanding - The service is performing exceptionally well.
- Good - The service is performing well and meeting our expectations.
- Requires Improvement - The service isn't performing as well as it should and we have told the service how it must improve.
- Inadequate - The service is performing badly and we've taken action against the person or organisation that runs it.
- Not rated - we have not yet rated this area of the service, this is normally because the assessments we have carried out have been focused on other key questions.
