Barchester St Thomas Care Home is set in the heart of the Basingstoke community in close proximity to the town centre and within walking distance to both rail and bus links.
As you enter this home you will see a stunning Chapel dating back to 1885. This is now used for functions and is available for residents and families to use for social gatherings. Carers pride themselves on providing highly trained dementia care to residents, tailoring the care to meet their individual needs as they appreciate that no two people are the same.
The care team consists of Registered Nurses and carers who are all experienced in caring for residents with various stages of dementia and complex nursing needs. All rooms are individual and offer en-suite facilities. The home is also very fortunate to have well-established secure internal garden with a colourful courtyard garden.
Each day there is a full activities programme facilitated by a dedicated activities team. Activities are arranged to suit the interests of residents and can vary from group to individual programmes.

St Thomas is a lovely home for residents, a nice clean place. Staff are hard-working, lovely, happy people. Takes some time to get used to when booking a visit on the website but got it now. Staff have put up with my moans about visiting times. All in all a wonderful home, excellent staff.

Our mother moved into St Thomas Care Home on 1st November 2020. She settled very quickly and is very happy with the care and attention she is receiving - she always says the "girls are lovely" when talking about the staff.

Thank you so much for taking the time to give such a lovely review.
Both my parents are in St. Thomas (Basingstoke), I could not ask for better care. My mum has been in bed for most of the three years and has never had a bedsore.

I was so nervous, guilty and anxious about putting my father into residential care but I needn't have been. He was made to feel very welcome and has settled in just right. He has loads of space to roam freely (still being watched though) which suits him just fine. He is definitely in the right place for him.
Many thanks for taking the time to complete a review. Feedback of our service is very important to us, and your review will be fed back to the team.
The staff are very friendly and helpful to all of us, especially to my Dad who visits daily. The home has a nice feel about it and we are lucky to have it just down the road, so my Dad still feels close to my Mum.

My wife and I have been visiting St Thomas to see our friend at least twice a week since June 2018. We liken the home to a 4-5 star hotel for its atmosphere in all areas such as lounges, dining rooms and also its food quality. We are constantly impressed by the efficient manner in which the staff at all levels perform their duties. Their dedication to the care and welfare of the residents is worthy of the highest commendation and we have never seen or heard anything of a derogatory nature, worthy of complaint. In addition, we are impressed with the friendliness shown towards us by all the staff, who always greet us with a smile, as indeed they also do when dealing with the residents. Well done St Thomas.
Thank you for taking the time to leave this review, and for your kind words. I will ensure that all the staff in all the teams are advised of your review.
I am satisfied with the care my mother is receiving.

Many thanks for taking the time to submit this review. It is much appreciated.
I am made very welcome by staff when I visit - they are courteous and kind, both to me and my husband. He is recently in bed (11am) when I call and I know he has medical problems which I am confident staff understand. He has to be got out of bed by hoist now. A wheelchair is used to get him around...
St Thomas's refurbishment is excellent - my husband likes the little chapel coffee shop -fresh coffee and cakes!
Many thanks for thaking the time to leave this review, and your observations of the Home. Very much appreciated
My uncle became a resident in August of 2018 as he could not look after himself any more due to the fact that he had dementia and was forgetting basic things like eating and washing and a major thing of not taking his medication.

My uncle became a resident in August of 2018 as he could not look after himself any more due to the fact that he had dementia and was forgetting basic things like eating and washing and a major thing of not taking his medication. Since he has been there my sister and myself no longer have to worry on a daily basis, he is getting all the care that he could hope for.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and your lovely comments, which I will feed back to the team. It is a real pleasure to have been able to get to know your uncle and yourselves.
My Dad came to the care home in March. His care was good to start with, but due to my Dad's health, he is now on puree food, was very upset to find my Dad being given solid food. I have also found when I arrive in the evening, residents are being left alone and no carer in sight, which is...
My Dad came to the care home in March. His care was good to start with, but due to my Dad's health, he is now on puree food, was very upset to find my Dad being given solid food. I have also found when I arrive in the evening, residents are being left alone and no carer in sight, which is disappointing. There has been one carer who will go above and beyond to help, a wonderful carer.
Many thanks for taking the time to leave your review. We have taken on board your comments and fed them back to the team. Also, please feel free to place a nomination for employee of the month for the member of the team who you feels go over and above, as we always endeavour to recognise these staff members.

Nursing care of my mum is very good. I know that she is safe and being looked after. The food is fairly good and they are improving on the activities. The facilities are being improved due to the current project to update the fixtures and fittings. The nurses and carers take time to take care of the medical and personal care and make the residents feel calmer and looked after.

Hello, my name is Jenny, and I am the General Manager at St Thomas’. I joined the St Thomas team in September 2024 and have experience managing both nursing and residential care homes. My passion for caring for people living with dementia began around eight years ago. At St Thomas, I aim to create a safe and loving environment for those living with dementia while promoting choice and encouraging independence.
In 2020, I completed a Diploma in Management in Health and Social Care, and in 2023, I obtained a Bachelor’s Degree in Integrated Care. In 2025, I completed a Level 7 qualification in Senior Leadership.
I take pride in fostering a positive working culture and aim to inspire the St Thomas team to reach their full potential within Barchester through education, practical experience, and mentoring. At St Thomas, we have a highly skilled team of care, nursing, and ancillary staff.
As General Manager, I strive to empower the team to provide high-quality, person-centred care while ensuring our residents’ lives are fulfilled, regardless of physical limitations.
St Thomas has a fantastic activity team that ensures every day is different in our home, offering an extensive array of events and life enrichment opportunities. Our activities team is always looking for new and innovative ways to promote independence and enjoyment.
At St Thomas, we understand that having a loved one in a care home can be a challenging time. Therefore, we welcome families and friends into the home like family, and our staff are always on hand to support relatives through what we know can be a confusing experience.
Hello, I’m Sony and I am the Deputy Manager here at St Thomas. I have been working with the team here since 2023, and I truly enjoy working with such a fantastic team and caring for the wonderful residents living here at St Thomas.
