The care and attention my grandad has received since moving to Victoria House following a stroke has been exceptional. The staff are attentive and responsive, acting quickly during periods of deterioration to ensure appropriate medical interventions are given in a timely manner. Every staff member has been so kind despite having extremely challenging jobs and we're reassured that he's in very safe and competent hands.

I am so pleased with the care home. The staff are a credit to Victoria House, and I mean all staff right through to gardener, kitchen, laundry, admin, carers, nurses, managers, sorry if I missed anyone out. My mum's been there 4 years now to say I was thinking I was going to loser her the first week. Mums looking really well. All staff went out extra mile at Xmas. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for your kind words. We try to look after our residents as if they were family
Over the 3yrs my mother being in this nursing home every question asked at the bottom of this form I can honestly say 100% to say I had never heard of this nursing home it is absolutely outstanding. Any concerns at all they are always on the ball and keep you informed all the way.

I have found this home to be of an exceptionally high standard. From first assessing my friend's needs to her coming to live here, the kindness, the care and compassion shown has been second to none. The staff all seem very dedicated to making her life as comfortable and happy as possible. Each time I visit, I witness how residents and staff interact and see genuine care and warmth. My friend is well looked after and safe; this, in turn, helps us to accept that she can no longer be at home with us. Having visited many care facilities, I can say this is by far the best I've ever been in/to.
Thank you so much for this review, this is so much appreciated and will be passed to the whole team who continue to strive for the delivery of best care.
My husband was in from Jan-June 2025. The staff was so lovely, caring. Respectful of my husband and myself and family. I would chose and recommend this home.

Through the 2 years my dad was here I have absolutely no complaints at all. The staff cared for my dad like his own family and despite his complex needs they spent time to help him be the best version of himself and and made him smile again. The dietary, nursing and care needs were all met and dad was clean and well groomed at all times. His room was lovely and was a home from home.
Thank you for the lovely comments very much appreciated by the whole team.

My mum received end of life care here for one week. My family visited daily and was always greeted with smiles and offers of tea. The staff were always friendly, helpful and caring. Mum was treated with dignity and compassion. Her room was clean, airy and so much quieter than hospital. She has a big bed with cosy throws and seemed peaceful. When she passed away we felt we had been lucky to have found such a wonderful place to end her days.
Our team strive to ensure best care and hope you found solace that we genuinely cared, thank you for your very kind words.
Incredible staff, kind, loving, caring, a personal touch, they offer something money can't buy. Would recommend to anyone.

My wife has lived in the Home for nearly three years. Her care is provided in a very kind, loving, patient and compassionate way. The Home communicates regularly with me if there are any issues and all staff working these are very friendly making me hot drinks when I visit and chatting to me about any aspects of her care. The environment is very caring with good continuity of staff and high standards maintained by the Manager. I am reassured by the clinical knowledge of the registered nursing staff and my wife benefits from being part of the local Hospital 'virtual ward' concept having access to Consultants. I have recently moved my sister in law into the home and she is now benefitting from the loving care provided. My heartfelt thanks to all the staff for everything you do for my relatives.
Thank you for the appreciation and the very kind words, Victoria House will continue to strive to deliver best care and with residents and their families at the heart of all we try to acheive.
