My wife, who suffers from Alzheimers., has just spent three weeks in respite care at Spencer Court which resulted in a very positive experience for both of us.
I found the dedicated Care Team, led by Angela, to be consistently friendly, attentive and professional.
Whenever I called to enquire about my wife's situation, I always got a detailed run-down of how well she slept, or what she had for breakfast that day etc., which re-assured me of the extent to which she was being looked after with kindness, patience and dignity.
Bearing in mind the importance of feeling confident that someone you care about is in safe and capable hands, I can say unequivocally that Spencer Court gave me that confidence.
Based on our experience, I would be very happy to recommend Spencer Court to other families considering respite or residential care.
