Review from Anita J (Daughter of Resident) published on 28 December 2023 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
I live abroad and visited my mother in August of this year. I was astounded by the quality of care she was receiving, it surpassed all my expectations. All the staff were unbelievably kind and fostered an environment of happiness which I believe is a crucial component of caring for people with dementia. They treated every resident as though they were special individuals whilst at the same time being part of a large extended family. I saw amazing acts of kindness given by the staff to a number of residents at a time when they had no idea that I was there. This proves of course that this is how the home functions and was not something put on because of my presence. I honestly cannot praise everyone that works more highly in what I believe to be difficult circumstances. Leaving to return home I felt so lucky that my mum was in such wonderful hands.

Inspection ratings
We rate most services according to how safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led they are, using four levels:
- Outstanding - The service is performing exceptionally well.
- Good - The service is performing well and meeting our expectations.
- Requires Improvement - The service isn't performing as well as it should and we have told the service how it must improve.
- Inadequate - The service is performing badly and we've taken action against the person or organisation that runs it.
- Not rated - we have not yet rated this area of the service, this is normally because the assessments we have carried out have been focused on other key questions.
