Victoria Highgrove

During her time there, my aunt's nursing home underwent a complete renovation and refurbishment. It is clean, bright and welcoming. She had a beautiful room with a sea view. The staff have always been excellent, kind, patient, compassionate and professional. The food is freshly prepared to an excellent standard by the dedicated chef. He provides plenty of imaginative choices and presents the dishes beautifully. He always goes the extra mile for birthdays and special occasions. The staff coped incredibly well with the challenges of covid.

Care with compassion and kindness. Friendly staff, who took time with patient. Good food. Good medication instructions on discharge. Easy visiting access. Due to covid, no activities, apart from physio, which is a shame.

I was moved here after a four-week stay in hospital and was very pleasantly surprised by how friendly and welcoming the staff were. I was shown to a lovely room on the first floor with an ensuite toilet. It is lovely and clean. I was shown around the place and was impressed with the facilities. I have had fun taking part in the activities and have made new friends with some of the other residents. The food is tasty but more vegetarian options could be offered.

The food was nice and security good. Physios were very good. The room was kept nice and clean. Nice to get meals in the room. Nice to have a TV in the room. Good to have a laundry service for residents who couldn't get family to help.

The care I received was first class. All the staff were so amazing. I feel so well after staying at the home. Everyone is completely attentive to my needs and physical problems. The food is lovely and the home is spotlessly clean. I was able to go to the hairdressers and chiropodist while I was in the home. The activities were great and I enjoyed the singers coming in. I enjoyed the treats at the home, lovely cheese and biscuits for snacks, which were such a treat. Love the percolated coffee.

I could not have been in a better place for these two months of recovery and rehab. The rooms are light and well furnished. Everyone has been kind and friendly and many of the carers went beyond the call of duty with acts of loving kindness and friendship. I will always be grateful for the care and encouragement I have received here and will remember all the staff with affection.

My mother was moved to Victoria Highgrove from hospital in June, to receive rehabilitation. Unfortunately, she has considerably gone downhill. The care home have been absolutely tremendous with my mother's care.

Everything you would wish for in a care home, is offered at the Victoria Highgrove. We, as a family were always kept well informed and the staff are wonderful, very professional, friendly and caring. The rooms were exceptionally clean and the food plentiful. Our uncle was so very well looked after during his stay with them and we thank all for their care with him. Nothing was too much trouble for them at all. Thank you.

All the staff have looked after my husband very well indeed. Each carer/nurse has contributed to his care in their capacity. My husband cannot speak too highly of everyone there. He says if he ever had to go back to a care home, he would choose this one. I, as his wife, am so very pleased with the care he has received - every single person has given my husband all the care he needs and it is such a relief to me to know he is being looked after so very well.

I feel lucky to come to Victoria Highgrove, Brighton. A very good place for care. The staff are very good, food service is very good and the room is cleaned very good. Thank you.

I enjoyed excellent care here and have been made to feel most welcome. The food has been outstanding and highly nutritious and is an important element of my recovery. A couple of suggestions: It would be a nice idea to have a selection of herbal teas available and to accompany the delicious soups, bread rolls or simple slices of bread, would be good.

In my experience, Victoria Highgrove nursing home has been a blessing. The staff are kind, caring and considerate. The home has a calm and welcoming atmosphere, and I am confident that the care offered to residents is excellent. The staff are patient, especially when they have to deal with occasional "challenging" behaviour.

Many thanks to all of them.

I have been very lucky since I came here. I have been treated with respect and kindness and laughter. Sorting my legs out. The staff treated me with the same respect.

Mum was very happy with her stay and was made to feel very at home. Mum also got on with all the staff and made her laugh on a daily basis and regular interactions. Mum would be happy to stay again, but only if she had to. No place like home.

Very friendly, very clean and very helpful.

The care home was good beyond our expectations, with delightful staff and efficient nursing and physio. It provided a much-needed place between the hospital, home and time to regain strength.

Could not ask for more. Delighted with how clean and well looked after my uncle is. We are always met with a cheerful and friendly welcome and are kept well informed.

I was looked after very well. Nothing was too much for any of the staff. If I needed to be in a nursing home again, this is the home I would like to be in.

Over the last nine months, my wife has been cared for extremely well. I have had no worries about her care, for all the staff have done such a wonderful job, being fully committed to the work. I would highly recommend Victoria Highgrove as a place for care.
