Review from N O (Daughter of Resident) published on 4 March 2025 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
We are eternally grateful to all the staff in Olivemede. From the day my mum became part of their home, they treated her with respect and dignity. They looked after her so well and we cannot thank them enough. To this day, I can vividly remember how they showed care and compassion to my mum and us on the day she left us. The way they all lined up to pay their respects as she was leaving Olivemede was a remarkable gesture I will never forget. Keep doing what you are doing and thank you for everything.
