Review from Lucinda S (Daughter of Resident) published on 9 June 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My sister and I have been very happy with the care our father has received at Wellington Grange since he moved here in January. It was never his wish to move into a residential home but he is very happy and is getting much better care than when he was at home with one 24hr carer and part time ones coming in three times a day. His room at Wellington Grange is tastefully decorated and very light and airy. All the staff at Wellington Grange are friendly and helpful at all times and very kind to our father. An excellent home in every respect and we only wish our mother could have been here too as she would have loved all the activities etc as well as the beautiful garden.

Review from Kim S (Daughter of Resident) published on 8 June 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My Mum came to Wellington Grange in a very frail state at 96 years old in January of this year, after struggling with some infections, and she is leaving very soon to go home again after the care she has received for the past 5 months has enabled her to feel strong enough to do so. Each member of the care team has been truly exceptional, going that extra mile even when they were so busy, and she has become very close and grateful to two of them in particular, as indeed I feel I have during my frequent visits. We have been made to feel so welcome from the start, even before she moved here for respite, and I genuinely can't thank you all enough for the dedicated work you do for so many vulnerable residents. We would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Wellington Grange.

Could not praise the staff enough. Never came into contact with anyone who was not polite, friendly and always prepared to go the extra mile. Nothing was ever too much trouble. They all do an amazing job.

Review from Jane R (Daughter of Resident) published on 31 January 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

What more can I say than a huge thank you to all the staff at Wellington Grange for my mother's brief but meaningful stay. From the moment the manager stepped through the door, our minds were put at rest regarding the best place for my mother to spend her last few days. They were thorough, obliging and helpful, and may anyone reading this be reassured that this home is second to none.

Overall Experience

We feel very fortunate to have found Wellington Grange in Chichester as it is such a lovely and caring home for our parents. My stepmother was able to spend her last few weeks together with my father, receiving all the care she needed and avoiding being in a hospital ward which was her worst nightmare. All the family and my father have been so well supported and he has permanently settled in very happily, says the food is excellent and all the staff are so kind, caring and professional.

Review from Louise H (Wife of Resident) published on 29 December 2021 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My husband really enjoyed being at Wellington Grance, his room was a delight and he settled in very quickly. He particularly enjoyed the meals, especially the fish and the kitchen staff made great efforts to obtain the special cutlery that he needed. The personal care he was given was extensive and continuous. The staff were very kind and helpful despite his huge need for assistance in the latter weeks. The lead medical nurse supervised his care constantly and it was a relief to find such excellent help and skill.

Overall Experience

From initial contact through check-in my stay to check-out, I found the whole process very easy and all the staff superb in how they deal with all the residents in Wellington Grange. Wellington Grange is a very friendly home and I would highly recommend it to anyone considering respite or expert care. The kid ribs were great.

Review from Carol W (Respite Resident) published on 2 June 2021 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

I have spent two weeks respite, and I can honestly say that I have never found such a lovely, warm, caring, friendly bunch of people. The call bell is silent, so no ringing driving everyone mad! There is never a long wait for a carer, and they are always happy to help. The food was lovely, good choice and quality. I didn't get to mix with other residents due to Covid quarantine. I would, without hesitation, recommend Wellington Grange.

Review from Rosemary B (Wife of Resident) published on 25 March 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My husband was admitted to Wellington Grange in February 2021. The manager and her team made him feel very welcome. The care he received was wonderful. The staff were very attentive to him and I really could not have chosen a better place for my husband to be. He became unwell and passed away, last weekend. The care my husband, myself and my family have received has been outstanding. I cannot recommend Wellington Grange highly enough.

Overall Experience

Undoubtedly, the care I have received at Wellington Grange has greatly helped my recovery from a broken shoulder. I have been made comfortable, been lovely and warm and well fed. The staff and residents have been very friendly and there is always plenty to do - a varied games/activity programme. Good for vitality.

Overall Experience
This is an excellent establishment/provider.
Building and public rooms are clean and bright.
Bedrooms and their facilities are good.
Meals are healthy and appetising.

There is not and should be a welcome letter/paper on arrival. It should cover (for the new resident) all aspects of living here.

Reply from Helen Smith, Home Manager at Wellington Grange

Thank you John for your kind words and comments about the home. We have been working on improving our welcome letter with your helpful advice which has been included. We always aim to improve the information for new residents and develop our home experience for all residents.
