I felt compelled to write a review regarding my uncle's stay at your home. from the welcome we received at our initial show-around to the overall improvement in his health, once he was able to go home and look after himself. Every step of his recovery was handled with care and consideration of his needs.
Reply from Jemimah Guinto, Home Manager at Chiltern Grange Care Home

Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a wonderful review and all of the team are so pleased to have supported your uncle during his stay with us.

Our nan/mum has been at Chiltern Grange Care Home since April 2022. She has settled in well and seems really happy. She now enjoys taking part in all the activities that they provide, including the day trips that the home run. Staff are hard working and very helpful, this was demonstrated with the recent
move to the ground floor while level one was being decorated. As a family, we are happy with Chiltern Grange Care Home.

My 95-year-old mother was treated with respect and very well looked after. The staff were caring, always considerate and always on the ball about her needs, especially medical. The room and grounds were lovely. My Mother's only complaint was the food, but this improved greatly during her time there.

Thank you for your feedback, the kitchen team really try to ensure all the residents enjoy their food and I'm so glad Mum could see the improvement made. We really appreciate the lovely comments.

I was worried that I had to leave my mother for longer than usual as I had to go to France for eight days. I usually visit two-three times a week. I needn’t have worried. She was absolutely fine. Sitting in the garden with three other residents, drinking chocolate milkshake. Obviously hadn’t missed
me or even asked where I had been. This gives me confidence that she is settling. Every carer that comes to her she says ‘you’re lovely’ which is so nice to see. The carers are really cheerful and always have time for any questions. I am so grateful for their care of Mum.

My father is undertaking a second stay at Chiltern Grange Care Home for respite care due to deteriorating health. The application and admission process was very efficiently handled, and he has been well cared for during his period of recovery. The nursing staff have been very attentive and quick to
deal with any lapses in his recovery, compensating for the somewhat indifferent GP support. Physically, my father is in a much better state of health than when he arrived. Mentally, he is still very capable, so it is a shame that there is not more social activity or interaction that he could be encouraged to participate in.
Reply from Jemimah Guinto, Home Manager at Chiltern Grange Care Home

Thanks for your feedback; we are glad that you found the admission process easy and the nursing team to be supportive. We really want your father to feel mentally stimulated too, so we will, of course, pass this back to the activities team to see how we can help.

My mother came to Chiltern Grange Care Home for respite care while I had a short break away. My mother was extremely well looked after. The staff were so kind and helpful throughout her stay. This was the first time my mother had been in a care home. She is 89 and found the whole experience a pleasant
one. The chef was most obliging and sorted out a nice, soft diet for her which she liked. I am told the afternoon cakes were a delight and very scrumptious. The only thing my mother found was that the mattress was too hard for her, she did ask a member of staff if they had a softer one. Unfortunately, there was not one in storage. Therefore she tried to sleep on the outside of the covers, this made sleeping difficult. Next time I will make sure I take a travel mattress for her, just in case. All in all, my mother was very contented and would be happy to stay again.

My Dad, at weeks away from reaching 100 years old, is relatively happy. Cannot fault the staff with their dedication, care, compassion and support. The room my Dad is in is quite nice and overlooks the garden. The bed is extremely comfortable apparently! The dining room is lovely, clean and inviting.
Portion sizes don't seem to cater to the individual though. One size fits all regardless of appetite. Also at times (for my Dad) the choices are far "too modern" for his taste. The cooked breakfast is good and eaten most days though. All in all, fairly content.

Mum moved into Chiltern Grange Care Home a few years back, just when Covid and lockdown started in the UK. She was always happy there and well looked after. The clinical team were kind and compassionate and the carers helping her on a daily basis are very supportive of her needs. All team members contributed
in some way to make her stay enjoyable and ensure she felt at home. She has only just left to move to a sister care home, still in the Porthaven Care Homes group, to live closer to me. I would thoroughly recommend the group and the services at Chiltern Grange. Thank you to the whole team, as we appreciate many people work behind the scenes, who make considerable contributions to the residents' care, not just those staff who the visitors meet.

Thank you so much for your glowing review. We thoroughly enjoyed spending time with your mum.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.961)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.961) out of 10 for Chiltern Grange Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 43 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 43 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.961 for Chiltern Grange Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (493 Excellents x 5) + (18 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 512 Ratings = 4.961
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Chiltern Grange Care Home is based on 43 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 75 registered maximum number of service users is 15, which has been reached with 43 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

Jackie Chicken

Job Title: Client Services Manager Joined: 2023

Hello, my name is Jackie Chicken, and I am the Client Services Manager here at Chiltern Grange.


Having previously worked in the retirement sector for four years, I was delighted to make the move into the care sector in 2022. My previous career was spent in the luxury travel industry, so delivering excellent customer service has always been high on my agenda.


Porthaven has a wonderful reputation in terms of quality of care and beautiful design, so I feel very privileged to work for one of the best care providers in the country. My role at Chiltern Grange means I am the first point of contact for families starting out on that journey to find the best fit in terms of a caring environment for their loved ones. I love the fact that we provide person-centred care, and I really enjoy showcasing the wonderful facilities, newly refurbished spaces and exceptional staff we are fortunate enough to have here at Chiltern Grange.


Outside of work, you can find me as a chaperone in the wings of a theatre supporting my daughter or cheering my son on from the side of a rugby pitch!
