Overall Experience

My friend has been with you since January 2025. Since being here in St Catherines, she has settled so well lots of extra care and support with her specialist needs. The teams have all been wonderful I could name so many however they are all so caring and patient with my friend. The staff member who

manages to get her showered regularly has been brilliant, my friend responds to her. The activities coordinator gets her engaged with activities. Well done everyone!

Overall Experience

The success of any home is most influenced by the style set by its leader. St Catherines View has a staff team from any backgrounds but without exception follow the standards set by the home manager. My wife has been a resident for over 2 years and despite the limitations of her dementia, she has often

expressed her happiness & contentment with St Catherines. This is a great comfort to me, as her husband. Recently, the companionship leader arranged for her to go sailing which she loved, having sailed with me and her friends over the years.

Reply from Vanda Baker, Home Manager at St Catherines View

It's lovely to hear your kind words about St Catherines View and how our team has supported your wife over the past two years. Knowing she feels happy and content, even with the challenges of dementia, means so much to us. Hearing how much she enjoyed the sailing trip was a joy for the team as well, helping her reconnect with something she's loved for so long is exactly why we do what we do. Thank you again for taking the time to share this.

Overall Experience

On discharge from hospital my husband joined St Catherine's View in December 2024. Our family are very grateful for the care that he received and the support offered to us by all the staff.
Sadly, his time at St Catherine's was shorter than we had hoped, but during his stay we felt that he was in safe

and sympathetic hands and all the staff could not have been more helpful.

Reply from Vanda Baker, Home Manager at St Catherines View

Thank you for your kind words. We're so sorry for your loss and appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. Although your husband's time at St Catherine's View was shorter than hoped, we're glad to know you felt he was in safe and caring hands. Your lovely comments mean a great deal to us, and we're glad we could offer support to you and your family during this difficult time.

Review from Ben J (Son of Resident) published on 19 February 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My elderly father fell and broke his hip in September and had a spell in hospital. Upon going home, it was clear that he was not going to manage and my brother and I were going abroad simultaneously. The decision was made to move dad into care and St Catherines was incredibly quick to assist with dad's

assessment being completed within 48 hours and his seamless move into his room 48 hours after that. The care and kindness that everyone at St Catherines View showed not just my dad but all of us at a very difficult time was outstanding. The level of care he received was exceptional and we always felt very comfortable that he was being well looked after. I will always be incredibly grateful for everything the team at St Catherines View did for my dad while he was there, you are all wonderful!

Reply from Vanda Baker, Home Manager at St Catherines View

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We're so glad we could support your dad and your family during such a difficult time. Helping him settle in quickly, while ensuring he felt comfortable and well cared for, was a priority for us and we hope it brought you some peace of mind. It means so much to hear that you felt reassured by the kindness and dedication of our team. I'll be sure to pass on your kind words to everyone. Thank you once again, and we wish you and your family all the best.

Overall Experience

I looked at several care homes prior to choosing St Catherines View. Immediately I was struck by a sense of family, love and happiness. The staff throughout my mother's time at the home have been professional, loving, caring and considerate. Whenever I dropped in my mum looked happy, well-turned out

and content. In her final days, both I and my brothers were overwhelmed by the warmth of all the staff and the tenderness they showed my mother. I highly recommend St Catherines.

Overall Experience

My mother was a resident at St Catherines View dementia care home for 18 months until her recent death.
During that time and especially as her end neared, the care home staff were absolutely wonderful.
They showed her and our family lots of care and compassion and looked after Mum with genuine love

and affection.
We consider ourselves to be very lucky that Mum's last year or so was spent at St Catherines.

Reply from Vanda Baker, Home Manager at St Catherines View

Thank you for your kind comments. It was wonderful to have your mum as part of our community, and we feel privileged to have been a part of her life.

We are truly sorry for your loss and send our deepest condolences.

Very impressed with the level of cleanliness and care and the fact that all staff are totally approachable and eager to please. As my wife has slowly and inevitably deteriorated the care, compassion and kindness have increased. Bedding, clothes and hair are all spotlessly clean and always staff give

Overall Experience

I cannot thank and congratulate you more, the management, care and teamwork offered by you all at St. Catherines View Care Home in Winchester.
My mother has been a happy resident for 5 years, which naturally includes the dreadful Covid period, a very traumatic time for us all, not least for the staff

and management.
The social outings and in-home events arranged by the excellent activities team are to be applauded. They offer so much pleasure to the residents and it is a great comfort, as a daughter, to know that my dear mum is not just sitting, 'vegetating' and waiting to die.
She recently celebrated her 101st Birthday.
I would very much appreciate it if my sentiments and grateful thanks could be shared with your wonderful team.

Reply from Vanda Baker, Home Manager at St Catherines View

Thank you for taking the time to provide such wonderful feedback about your experiences at St. Catherine's View. It has been a pleasure having your mum as part of our community for the last 5 years, and it has been a privilege to celebrate some amazing milestones with her. Our team is dedicated to creating an engaging and fulfilling environment. It's wonderful to hear that the social outings and in-home events arranged by our activities team have brought so much pleasure to your mum and the other residents. I will be sure to pass on your lovely comments to the team, who will be very happy to hear about how their dedication and hard work is making such an impact on the lives of our residents.

Overall Experience

I am eternally grateful that we found St Catherines View for Mum. She has settled happily there, thanks to the efforts of everyone involved. All of the staff (and I really mean everyone) are so caring and kind and I feel totally confident that she is being well looked after. I love the way they all

greet her with warmth, a smile and her name when they see her. They keep in touch with us well and clearly value Mum and her quality of life. The system of smaller home groups within a larger home works really well for Mum, giving her a safe, manageable space within the wider community. The gardens are beautiful, well kept and provide wonderful stimulation for people with dementia. It has been really helpful to be able to visit at any time and the staff are always helpful and accommodating.

Overall Experience

My mother had been in St. Catherines View for four and a half years, where her care had been kind and caring. Her developing health issues from April were managed in a way we would all want for our elderly relatives. But, the care in my mother's last few days was beyond everything we could have wished

for. The kindness and constant attention helped me too and, in fact, in the end all was calm and all was easy. Thank you.

Overall Experience

Accommodated in a modern purpose-built complex, St Catherines View offers the best possible environment for the provision of excellent dementia care. Medical care benefits from having nurses onsite 24-7. Liaison with GPs and the hospital is seamless. Food is cooked from scratch onsite. It is first-class.

Full-time activity staff motivate residents and day trips feature. The quality of management and staff alike is unrivalled. From reception staff to nurses, carers and cleaners, they are, without exception, professional, polite and totally trustworthy. A splendid example of teamwork, professional development is encouraged, and staff turnover is low. I cannot recommend St Catherines View highly enough.

Overall Experience

My father was a resident of St Catherines Ciew for over nineteen months. Living only a short walk from the home, I was able to visit him many times and become acquainted with the staff whom I found to be professional, friendly and very caring. The home was well-appointed and comfortable. I believe that

my father could not have spent his final months in a better place. My brother and I were very happy with every aspect of St Catherines View.

St Catherines View is a warm, welcoming place from the moment you walk through the front door. There are many staff who are attentive, patient, empathetic and alert to the resident's needs. When Mum has had medical issues, they have quickly noticed and worked with the NHS to resolve them. Everyone has

been so helpful and accommodating from the beginning of the process. We were very reticent about residential care, but bringing Mum to St Catherines View was a great decision.
