Eckling Grange Reviews (1)
Over all time Eckling Grange has 1 review.
It is hard to overstate how kind and considerate the staff have been to my father. He is well look after, physically, emotionally and spiritually. Whenever I have visited him it is clear that he feels cared for and is very grateful for the kindness and attention of the staff. I am so pleased that we made the decision to move him to Eckling Grange. The staff in the Dementia Unit are to be particularly praised, not just for their care for my father, but for the way they work to make family members feel welcomed and looked after.
