The Covid restrictions have meant that this is only my third visit to my aunt's room in the past year. I have really missed her. I came into contact with four members of staff today. My words to describe their interaction with us today are; professionally, precise, efficient, an ease and willingness to everyone and interact, and not least, a very genuine kindness. My aunt has an antisocial personality and dementia, all the staff allowed her to "be herself" and respect her wishes. She really likes living at Gracewell, and I am so very reassured by that. After her long scenarios of decline physically and mentally, I know that my husband and I have found the best possible care for her.
Our care teams are central to everything we do in our home; your recognition of their passionate and skilled work is fantastic to hear. Thank you for your kind word; these will be shared with the rest of the team here at Gracewell of Fareham.

We have felt that our family member has been well cared for and kept safe during these difficult times. The communication has been great and the options open to us to keep in contact well organised. Our family member is happy, made friends and speaks well of Gracewell. The grounds are always kept immaculate, the staff friendly, helpful and don't mind phone calls checking in and give good updates. The moving-in process was positive, made easy and the family as a whole welcome.
Gracewell of Fareham appreciate moving into a care home can be an unsettling time. This is why we take the time to engage with family members and friends of the resident to make the process as smooth as possible, to get to know the resident on a personal level. We are pleased your family member has settled in well.
Everyone has been excellent with the care of my mother and contacted me whenever she had a problem. The visiting pod has been organised well to help manage the issues caused by the current pandemic. Everything happening during the pandemic has been explained clearly.

My mother has been at Gracewell for 18-months now, and I have to say, we (her family) are all so happy about her care. During this very hard time with the coronavirus, they have all been so kind and looked after her so well. I did manage to Facetime her, and she always tells me how kind all the staff are. Seeing her for the first time recently, she looks well and happy. I have nothing but praise for all the staff.

During lockdown, obviously we have not been able to visit our relative, but we have been kept in touch and up to date each week with great photos and news snippets. This has made such a difference to the situation. I cannot speak highly enough of all the staff and just thank god we chose Gracewell.

My Aunt went into Gracewell Fareham in February 2020 after a spell in hospital. We looked at several homes, but all had one or two things that we were not happy with. Finally, after a suggestion from the sister of the ward she was in we went to Gracewell. We were impressed by our reception and the professionalism of the staff we met. After they reviewed my aunt, we agreed to her going there. We have never regretted that decision. She was welcomed, and her room beautifully prepared. All staff including domestic, nursing, catering, managers, maintenance and occupational have been perfect for her. She enjoys eating, and we cannot fault the food. The home also dealt with the Covod-19 outbreak speedily and as a result, have had no infections. They are easing visiting restrictions very gradually to ensure safety. We would like to thank all staff for their very hard work during this difficult time. At all times the home has maintained communication with us even though we could not visit.
Our dining team will be thrilled with your lovely comments. Here at Gracewell of Fareham, we cater to each resident based on preferences and dietary requirements. Hearing this positive feedback is greatly appreciated by everyone in the home.

The team on the nursing floor were excellent (and your admissions manager). My father went to Gracewell, initially for respite, but the stay was extended when lockdown began. Communications were very good, using video conference calls to keep us in touch during this time, as well as newsletters to family showing events run for the residents. Sadly, my father succumbed to his Parkinson's condition before the lockdown ended, but we cannot thank the staff enough. They kept us in touch throughout and ensured we were part of any decision making. We were very pleased with Gracewell throughout.

A truly wonderful place. My mother has Alzheimer’s and moved into Gracewell in December. There really aren’t enough words to describe the love, care and attention my mother receives each day.

I cannot praise this care home highly enough in all aspects that you could ever wish for. In a time of need, they came to my rescue and from that moment on they have been fantastic, offering support and care to the highest standards alongside facilities, support and standards that you would really wish for an elderly relative. In times when unfortunately some care homes fall into a lower category, be assured that this home can be thoroughly recommended. Their professionalism and friendliness is second to none... you will not be disappointed. Excellent.
At Gracewell of Fareham our ultimate goal is to provide the best possible level of care we can. From our carers, nurses and activities team we strive to achieve a sociable and comfortable community our residents can call home. We are so happy to see the improvements made by your parent.
Thank you.

Dad has been a resident of Gracewell since its opening. Through lots of changes, one thing has always been consistent. The high level of compassionate, empathic, quality care from all staff. During dad's final two weeks, of end of life care, the staff on the top floor were amazing. Dad, myself and sister were cared for, above and beyond. Nothing was too much trouble, and we will never forget their kindness. Thank you so much.
Firstly, please accept our sincere condolences for your recent loss and thank you for taking the time to share your experience of Gracewell of Fareham – particularly at such a difficult time. The team here are so grateful that your Dad had such a positive experience of the home and this extended to family members and friends.
My father moved into Gracewell August 2018. The attention to detail, the care home itself, the kindness and professionalism of the staff exceeded all my fathers and my expectations, so much so that I have recently moved my aunt into the same home from a local care home. Personally, one thing that...
I would have no hesitation in recommending this care home to anyone who is looking for exceptional extraordinary value for money, care for their loved ones and relatives.
Your feedback is important to us, as is the care and well-being of all of our residents. We take great pride in ensuring we deliver high-quality care and facilities to make a difference to our residents and their families lives.
Very pleased with the care my father received. The staff were very caring and attentive and the nursing staff very professional and diligent. Communication was excellent at all times. Lovely surroundings. Dad was happy and content during his stay. I would recommend Gracewell.

To:
Her Nursing Team - they were always in support of my worries too.
The Care team - please be proud of your companionship and care.
The Housekeeping Team and Personal Grooming Services - always a smile and nothing to much trouble; encouraging Mum to maintain pride in herself.
The Catering Team - Arriving at Gracewell immediately from a long stay in hospital, Mum had no appetite; so to see her gaining weight, recovering and maintaining her strength was a great result.
Events - Mum was always one for keeping to herself, so although the Events Organiser worked tirelessly I suspect Mum may have been a lost cause; in the last 20 years my wife and I managed to have her accept only twice an invitation out for a tea and cake.
Maintenance Team - for keeping the services Mum enjoyed in working order.
...although an informal closing...to all - a big hug, smiles and wet eyes...

Before joining the team here, I was an acting commissioning manager. I have a level 5 NVQ in health and social care, as well as qualifications in leadership training. I have also completed the ROSPA Level 3 train-the-trainer course in moving and handling.
Care UK’s values mirror my own, which is one of the reasons why I wanted to work here. It also has a reputation for providing high-quality, person-centred care. As an organisation, there is a strong focus on innovation and a genuine desire to ensure residents’ wellbeing. There is also excellent professional development for colleagues who want to pursue a career in care.
In my role, you need to have compassion and empathy. It is also important to have strong communication skills, patience and adaptability. As with any leadership role, you also need to be resilient and be committed to continuous development.
As a home manager, I am here to support colleagues and to ensure we give residents the very best personalised care, and that they are happy, comfortable and safe. Knowing we make a real difference to people’s lives makes me proud of what we do here. It is also fantastic to see colleagues excel and progress in their own careers.
I have been lucky enough to have many career highlights. Ones that stand out include being able to support homes achieve outstanding CQC ratings and commissioning luxury care homes. Achieving a 10/10 for a home on carehome.co.uk was also another big highlight.
I have lots of interests outside of work, including science, particularly physics and biology. I like art, music and extreme sports, which I balance out with meditation. My focus though, is my family.
