My expierence of Challoner House and its staff is excellent their care and attention towards their residents is second to none, I would reccomend anyone to place their relative in their care. I have recomended at least 6 people to their home because of their quality and care. Nothing is too much
trouble

There was a lovely welcome on arrival at Challoner House the room was lovely and bright with everything mum needed. Vicky the Activities Coordinator went above and beyond to include 'D' in all the activities and would always pop into the room to say hello with a beaming smile, Sue the Senior Care
Assistant always made sure mum had a lovely relaxing bath which she thoroughly enjoyed in the spa room. The young girl Bella who served mums meals was very friendly and polite. Thank you to all the staff for overall a lovely stay.

Mum settled in much quicker than I thought. The staff care for her very well. They ensure she is clean and tidy, she has her medicine and the food is hot and nutritious. The activities are appropriate.

Very happy Mum is at Challoner House. She is well looked after by all the staff, who are, without exception, lovely, kind, caring and attentive. Mum has been very happy since coming here in August 2024. Had an issue with mum receiving funded nursing care, but management pursued this, and it has all
been sorted.

My grandmother has been a resident for a few years and within that time she has always been treated so well!
All the staff genuinely care. I am only able to visit every so often due to not being based in Hampshire, and it is so lovely to see the staff popping their head in to see how she is whilst
we are there.
Thank you!

I came to Challoner House for a two week stay following a major operation to replace my left knee.
My experiance was very good, I felt cared for and most of the staff were empathetic - I appreciate that shortness of staff is an issue, so it is difficult to get an immediate response (at times).
I
have one suggestionto make - There is no food or hot drink offered between 5.30 pm and 9 am the next day. Sometimes if you ask you can get a drink. But it is an awfully long time, and less articulate patients will not ask!

My brother was admitted to Challoner House Care Home after being in a different care home and hospital. The care he received here was amazing. Such a difference from the previous care home.
The staff are all amazing and looked after my brother during his last few weeks before his passing. Thank you
so much

In one word , my experience of the whole care package is "exemplary". Having been a carer of my wife for over 20 years, I am well aware of the tasks facing a carer. Challoner House carehome fully met the requirements I expected. All the staff, from the cleaners to the managers were polite, cheerful
and mostly accessible. The food was excellent!

The care that my Mum has received over the last year has been exemplary. Without exception, each of the carers and nurses that have looked after my Mum have treated her with dignity, kindness and compassion. I know it is in the job title, but it is obvious that they really do CARE about everything
that they do for her. Mum has also been given the opportunity for social interaction at the huge variety of activities that are put on for the residents and this has been a great benefit to her. My Mum's and my family's experience at Challoner House Care Home has been excellent. We have been made to feel welcome and at home at Challoner and I have no hesitation in recommending it.
