Review of Acorn House, Kenley, London by Barry C (Son of resident)

Thursday 9 May 2013

Good proportion of staff to residents. Always very welcoming and friendly. I felt they provided a rounded level of care even in demanding situations with dementia residents. Plenty of activities organised throughout each month and regular news letters to relatives. Rooms, communal areas always kept clean set in large plot with 2 homes adjoining access to garden where BBQ and other events sometimes held.
