Some offer video updates, regular in-person care planning meetings, or informal family coffee mornings. Others also maintain open visiting policies, making it easier to stay involved in your loved one’s care, whether you're nearby or coming from further afield. Whatever your or your loved one’s needs, we’ve compiled the best options above, from trusted nationwide providers such as Care UK and Signature.
Mountbatten Grange offers several care types, ranging from everyday residential care (for those needing daily support with personal hygiene-related tasks) to specialised dementia and nursing support (which is available 24/7 and is often given by registered nurses). Other homes like Oak House provide short-term convalescent care which is aimed at those recovering following an injury, accident, or operation. For those living with more complex care needs, Slough is well served by local GP practices, along with Wexham Park Hospital.
In Slough’s selection of care homes, daily life is often shaped by much-loved activities. These may include community gardening projects, pet therapy sessions, or cultural celebrations tied to holidays or local events. Some homes also run cooking groups or reminiscence activities aimed at dementia residents, using objects from years gone by to spark happy memories.
Luxury facilities are a common feature, with spa-style bathrooms, fine-dining rooms, landscaped gardens, cosy communal lounges, and hair and beauty salons all common.
