Review from Debbie D (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 26 January 2026 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

From the very first visit, when we were shown around, the care home made us feel genuinely welcome.

Every single member of staff, from the nurses and carers to the cleaners, activity coordinators, and management, were friendly, caring, and compassionate.

My father-in-law was looked after with great

dignity and respect from the very moment he arrived. He was receiving end-of-life care, and the support he received was exceptional. Not only did they care for him, but they also looked after us as a family whenever we visited. We were always made to feel welcome and were regularly asked if we needed anything or if we were okay.

I cannot speak highly enough of this care home. I would not hesitate for a second to use them again in the future should we ever need care for another loved one.

Another thing that we noticed as a family was not only does Red Rose look clean, it smells clean too. A lot of care homes have that certain "aroma" this one smells clean and fresh.

Reply from Roger Daniel, Director at Red Rose Care CommunityThank you so much for these kind words. The management team have developed an excellent set of carers and support workers at Red Rose. The home is extremely well staffed at all times and it is pleasing that the quality of care provided and the cleanliness of the home is appreciated.

Our dad was in the care home for 4 weeks till he passed away on 6/2/25. He was treated with dignity and respect at all times, we were informed at all times of any changes and all the staff were great and nothing was too much for dad. He came in with a pressure sore and they it healed very quickly.

Overall Experience

My mum is in residential care at Red Rose Community. We, as a family, couldn't be happier with the standard of care she receives. Today, we celebrated her 95th birthday and the staff (2 in particular) went above and beyond to make sure we and mum all enjoyed it. The immaculate room we'd been given was

beautifully decorated, the food provided was delicious and nothing was too much trouble. In July the activities team organised a seaside day for residents, it was such a success! Mum was given ice creams and doughnuts and even we felt we were at the seaside!

Overall Experience

Mum has been a resident for almost 18 months at Red Rose Care Community. During this time she has had the very best care from all of the staff. Housekeepers, maintenance and care staff all take time to accommodate her wishes and laugh and joke with her. Today is Mum's 95th birthday, yesterday the home

provided us with a room to celebrate with all of our family. Decorated beautifully with balloons, banners etc to enhance the room. Delicious food and a beautiful birthday cake. The activity coordinators go to great lengths to try and encourage and include Mum in all that is on offer. Mum is very happy, which is a great comfort to our family.

Reply from Roger Daniel, Director at Red Rose Care CommunityThank you so much for taking the time to complete a review of Red Rose Care Community. We have absolutely loved having your mum as part of the Red Rose family and how joyful it was to see her enjoying her birthday celebrations.

Overall Experience

Our parents moved together to Red Rose in April 24 after many years of struggling at home with their advancing years and various health issues. Sadly my father (94) passed away this week and I just want to thank the care team for the genuine care shown to him during his last few weeks, in particular

to the team lead who goes above and beyond and truly cares, we are so grateful and comforted to know they are being cared for by such lovely people, they are a credit to the home.

Reply from Roger Daniel, Owner at Red Rose Care CommunityI appreciate that this is a difficult week for the family. I am grateful to you for taking the time to complete this review. I will pass on your kind words to the staff concerned.

Overall Experience

Mum spent two years living at Red Rose and was extremely happy there. The care manager and all the staff were so kind, caring and professional, nothing was too much trouble and they all treated Mum with dignity and respect, she was very fond of them all. Mum looked forward to the organised activities

which ranged from music, singing, crafts, baking and games, she loved all this. The home has a really happy atmosphere and as family visitors, we were all made welcome to join in with activities and celebrations. A big shout out and thank you to all at Red Rose for looking after Mum and caring for her the way you did.

Overall Experience

My brother has been at the Red Rose Care Home since last April 2023. As I live over 200 miles away this was my first visit. The home was clean, bright and had a pleasant atmosphere. The staff appeared very considerate and caring. My brother was in good spirits and being looked after very well. He has

severe physical limitations and the staff cope with his lack of mobility very well.

Reply from Roger Daniel, Director (and former carer) at Red Rose Care CommunityThank you so much for taking the time to complete a review. The internet has become such an important tool as a forum to show what a positive experience being in a very good care home can be. We have a unique staff set at Red Rose, and Red Homes generally, who are passionate about the care we provide.

Review from Lynn W (Daughter of Resident) published on 25 January 2024 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Staff are caring and compassionate with lots of patience and experience in supporting elderly people. Mum is treated well and likes all of the staff in her unit, the Brockton unit. She has some high demands regarding her medication and despite this not always convenient for the staff, they listen and

work to meet her needs.
The room is fairly small but has a height adjustable bed and call bell, staff respond quickly.
The environment is homely and very warm with three lounges and a lounge that visitors can go to with Mum. Staff make visitors welcome with biscuits and a coffee.
There is a range of activities to encourage interaction, some physical activity and encourage processing such as quizzes and bingo. Outside singers etc also visit. All activities take place in the home.
We are very happy with the care mum receives. I suggested more fresh fruit after a questionnaire went out and believe this is on offer even if Mum makes the less healthy choice of cake.

Reply from Roger Daniel, Director at Red Rose Care CommunityThank you for taking the time to complete this review. I do hope your mum continues to enjoy her time with us.

My mother was cared for extremely well both in the residential side and in the nursing unit. She was treated with respect and dignity.

Review from Martin H (Son of Resident) published on 25 April 2023 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My mother transferred to Red Rose Care Community for residential care in July 2022 to be nearer to family, she was 97 years old at the time. From the start, the staff made my mother and her family welcome. Her room was always clean and comfortable and there were comfortable lounges for a change of scene.

The dining room is very pleasant, a nice area to congregate and eat in. Activities are provided including on topical issues e.g. the Queen's Platinum Jubilee.
Of more importance are the staff. The family felt at all times that my mother was well cared for. The staff were always pleasant and respectful. They made sure she was well fed, clean, well dressed and that her medication was administered properly. We were particularly grateful to the senior staff who ensured excellent care for my mother in her final 36 hours of life. They provided a level of comfort to my mother which could not possibly be matched in hospital for which we will always be grateful.

Reply from Roger Daniel, Director at Red Rose Care CommunityThank you so much for taking the time to complete this review. The staff at Red Rose are incredibly dedicated and caring and it is a privilege to work alongside such a professional team.

I am so pleased my mother is happy and well cared for at Red Rose Care Community. The staff are so helpful and friendly and caring! They do what they can to make things happen! I live in East Sussex and don't get to see my mother very often, so I rely on the phone to speak to her, quite often she doesn't

hear it or leaves it in her room, but the staff help me to speak to her, by passing the phone to her when I call Red Rose, which is excellent!

All residents look happy and always smiling, which says it all. Staff are friendly and caring and are there to listen. The home is bright, clean and very welcoming. Lots of activities to keep them amused. My mother loves a little tipple and they always make sure she has it in the evening, which is important

to keep her routine. I know she is being well cared for.

Overall Experience

A clean, modern and above all friendly home. The staff have treated my father with care, compassion and dignity. In my opinion, any home stands and falls by the way staff treat the residents and all the staff greet visitors in a friendly manner and help my father when asked. I am confident that the

nursing staff will always place my father's needs as a priority and that is all I could ask for.
