I am completely convinced that every person who works here has to sit a ‘loveliness’ exam as part of the recruitment process!

Nothing is too much trouble and if Mum asks for anything, the staff will always accommodate her straight away. The food is excellent and a wide selection of choices. Coffee and cake are readily available. Entertainment is excellent, Mum is very happy here, this makes the process easier to cope with for the family.
Thank you for your wonderful feedback, we appreciate the process of moving a loved one into a care home is a troubling time, we aim to try to make this as easy as possible for families.

My husband was well looked after. He was treated with dignity and respect. At the end of his life all was done to keep him comfortable and we as a family were looked after and comforted.

We like the hospitality where we can make tea/coffee and share it with Dad in the reception.
No complaints.

Very good home managed and run by excellent staff. Everyone knows our next of kin (resident) and always greets her by her first name, even those staff not directly engaged in her wing. Special praise needs to go to the activities coordinator who provides almost a daily programme of activities tailored to the individual. The only negative is the cost which has increased significantly for every resident making it the most expensive care home locally. Overall we are very satisfied with the standard of care our next of kin is receiving but Barchester need to review their charges and reduce dividends to shareholders.
This is a lovely, spacy, airy nursing home. The staff are exceptional. The residents are so well treated. Each person called me by name and made to feel happy and content. The staff are so kind to relatives of residents, and we are made to be welcome at all times.

The fact that Mum can have lunch with Dad is lovely. At his last home, we couldn't even have a cuppa with him. The environment is spotless, comfortable and spacious. The atmosphere is calm, cheerful and likes belonging to a family. Well done all!
Thank you so much for your lovely review. I know the team work hard to ensure everyone is made welcome. I am pleased their hard work pays off. I will ensure my team reads your review.
Brilliant team looking after my Mum. Nothing is too difficult for them, and all requests have been dealt with in a quick and efficient manner. Regular updates and newsletters from the home. Brilliant party for the Queens Platinum Celebrations.

The setting for Vectra House is quiet and peaceful and the car parking is excellent. Inside the decor is attractive and well planned. The doors to the resident's room are open except for privacy and this gives a feeling of inclusion in the community, especially for the bed-bound. There is an atmosphere of positivity, peacefulness even when the louder residents are are expressing themselves and an invitation to enjoy life. The staff are extremely professional, caring and nurturing, willing and kind and there is a feeling of cohesion. End of life care is beautiful.
Thank you for your beautiful review, I know Vecta House team work extremely hard to ensure all aspects of care are of the highest standard, I will ensure I pass on your lovely comments. Look forward to seeing you soon.

Staff have been completely alert and proactive to the care needs of my relative. They contacted us as soon as they had concerns his health was seriously deteriorating. He was expected not to live, and they facilitated frequent visits with us, his next of kin, in very difficult circumstances. As a result, my relative has really improved and is getting better day by day; his life has been extended.
I will share your kind feedback with the team.
Thank you.
My wife and I have been visiting her aunty for about twelve months. Every time we have been welcomed. We can see the care is on the highest standard and aunty seems really happy and comfortable. The staff obviously go the extra mile for the residents.

I have worked in the care sector since 2008. I started my Health and Social career as an apprentice; I then progressed to a Senior Carer, which led me into my Deputy Manager role in 2015. From this, I first became a Registered Manager in 2016.
In 2023, I was proudly nominated for Registered Manager of the Year, here on the Isle of Wight.
I joined Barchester Healthcare in June 2026 as the General Manager at Vecta House.I am very passionate about delivering a person-centred approach and have a wealth of experience within the sector and a passion for caring for those living with dementia.
I am very proud to be part of a fabulous team at Vecta House. We aim to ensure that as a team we deliver a high standard of person-centred care to those we support, ensuring they are at the heart of everything we do and meeting each individual's needs.
I look forward to meeting you all soon and welcoming you into our home

Hello, my name is Chris, and I have been working at Vecta since June 2018.
Before joining Vecta, I spent 10 years as the Head Chef at another care home, working closely with people living with dementia.
It is an age-old saying that ‘home is where the heart is', and to me, the heart of all homes should be the kitchen. The pattern of our life revolves around food and drink; it sustains, nurtures and brings us together as family, and friends. It marks times of celebration and significant events, reminding us of what is important in our life.I enjoy spending time with residents and learning about their individual likes, dislikes and needs. This is their home and I try to create menus that respect this and involve them in this process as much as possible by recreating meals that they have come to love and food that they cherish.
Quality ingredients and presentation are essential; if something is to have value it should look good and reflect the care that has gone into its making.
