Thank you very much for your review. The management and staff are very pleased to have received such positive feedback. Your kind comments will boost staff morale and will encourage staff to continually maintain and deliver a high standard of care.
Visitors are welcomed, and there is never a problem taking my mother out, even at short notice, which is marvellous. The beautifully kept garden is a source of great joy for residents, and a splendid summer party was organised there, with delicious food, good music, grandchildren in evidence, and the local MP drawing the raffle, (all residents got a prize). We have another invitation for a Christmas party already, showing the manager's wish for the residents to feel part of the community.
My 97-year-old, previously independent living, mother has made the transition with ease, and the care she receives has given us all huge peace of mind.
My mum generally feels well cared for and looked after;
The home works hard to engage residents in activities, even the quiet ones like my mum! There are also a number of joyful well organised and well attended annual events for residents, family and friends.
My mum has been at Torkington for almost 10 years and I would not hesitate to recommend it to others.

Prior to becoming a Deputy Manager, I worked at Torkington House as a Senior Carer. I feel privileged to work at such highly reputable care home. Whilst studying Leadership management, I progressed to a role of Deputy Manager. The support and advice I was given by Home Manager gave me
the confidence to boost my skills.
