I get my hair done when I want, and my room is beautiful.

Placing one of your parents into a residential care home is never going to be easy and this, coupled with the current coronavirus situation, made this a really difficult decision for us to be confronted with. The staff at Shinfield have been absolutely marvellous at making our father feel welcome and quickly settled, in spite of these difficult times. Dad is an Alzheimer's patient, and it's a real comfort to know that he is on a dedicated floor where staff can look after him with his special needs in mind. Fortunately, he ha... read more

Shinfield View did everything possible to admit my sister within 24-hours, following a Covid test and succeeded. She has twice been hospitalised through seizures, and I have been constantly updated. Shinfield View has now enacted a rapid response team to keep her in the home so that she does not have constant hospitalisation. I cannot rate them too highly. They really know her, and this is a huge relief during Covid lockdown.

My husband went to Shinfield View for respite during January whilst we moved house. I can honestly say that it was like a 5* hotel, not a care home and he was treated with so much care and attention during his stay. Due to Covid, he had to stay in his own room for the first week, but the staff frequently visited him, and he was very happy. With everything inclusive, this home offers a most professional approach to care and a large number of staff are all very attentive, cheerful and respectful. He enjoyed his stay, says the ... read more

Shinfield View runs a very special home, and we cannot express our sorrow for the problems that have beset the home of late. No-one could have foreseen what you have had to deal with over the last nine months. That you have fronted up to the issues and been so transparent is also a credit to you. The management should feel proud of the way you have dealt with this, we have always been impressed with your approach, that nothing is ever too much trouble and you always try to do whatever people ask of you without hesitation. Sa... read more

Well cared for and kept happy with activities including painting and exercise and visits from my large family and the wonderful events which the family can also attend.

My mother has been a resident here for the last 10 months. She came directly from hospital with pressure sores and weight loss, also reduced mobility. In spite of not being a nursing home the care she has received has been exemplary. The staff of Shinfield View collectively put their arms around her and delivered a transformation. They healed her sores, fed her food she could eat and mobilised her. She gained weight, comfort and a renewed interest in life in spite of her extreme age (101). She has escaped Covid as it swept t... read more

Dad has been a resident at Shinfield View for 8 months now. He settled in very quickly and loves all the care and attention he receives from the staff. There's always some kind of activity going on during the day. The Visitor Pod enables us to visit Dad whenever we want and we can keep in touch with him via Zoom, Facetime or Skype. The staff are wonderful and very dedicated to the residents in their care, some of them moved into the home during the height of the Pandemic. Dad is receiving the very best of care and we cannot ... read more

My mother has been in the home for almost 18 months and it is the best decision we ever made for her care. I live in the USA and although I normally visit 4 times/year that has obviously not been possible this year. This could have been incredibly stressful for both of us, but Mum has been very happy to be at Shinfield View. The care she has received is excellent and the food is spectacular (I can say that from experience as prior to the lockdown I was able to visit and partake in their offerings and apparently it is still a... read more
