My experience has been so far brilliant. I would give the activities team a five star led by Gabby who works very hard and her team. I would prefer to see a more welcoming staff member at reception, as I come in on a Saturday.

My husband came here following discharge from hospital as end of life. He's unable to do anything for himself and is now in his last few days. Myself and both daughters were very impressed with the genuine care and professionalism shown by all staff involved. They showed genuine compassion not only to my husband but also such sensitivity to myself and my daughters, all of which has made an emotional and difficult time a bit easier. Thank you The Chase and all your care workers and nurses. You go over and above to ease our worries and have genuine care for my husband.

The staff were very welcoming and kind from the start. Always ready to chat about my brother-in-law and help with any problems. They were also very good about providing cups of tea and biscuits. My brother-in-law was quite a difficult client, but the staff managed to deal with his very challenging behaviour with kindness and understanding. He can sometimes be very aggressive and violent. They were very good at calming him and could get him at times to do the right thing.

We found all of the staff to be caring and helpful and the communication from the home was very good. The staff try hard to get to know each individual and do their best to care to their needs. We were very happy with all aspects of the care and compassion shown.

Cannot fault the care my dad received, special shout out to agency Lou who went above and beyond in his care. All the staff were so kind and respectful and it felt like a home away from home. As a family we can't thank them enough.

I’m passionate about making The Chase feel like a real home, where residents feel safe, respected, cared for and, most importantly, happy.
I trained as a nurse in Poland and began my career in a hospital, gaining 10 years of clinical experience. Since moving to the UK, I have continued to develop my skills and bring my nursing background to my role as Home Manager. I believe in getting to know each resident as an individual and ensuring their choices, interests and personalities remain at the heart of their care.

“I am from a care home background and administration. The vacancy came up for lead administrator, and I took this opportunity to combine my experience and skills. I enjoy all the tasks that I carry out as I know that this ties in with making a difference and supporting our residents, who are vulnerable people who require support.”

“I wanted to work in a large care home environment because it provides opportunities for me to expand my knowledge with training and by working alongside experts. My favourite part of my day is being able to make people happy.”
