Overall Experience
My mum’s care was outstanding. I was informed of any concerns or changes in Mum her care plan would be discussed and changed to support her, Mum was treated with compassion, dignity and respect. Mum loved music and the wonderful carers and cooks would sing, dance and laugh with her.

Mum was taken for walks in the village, had her nails painted and enjoyed life at Park House.
Mum sadly passed away we as a family take great comfort in knowing Mum was taken care of so well and appreciate the support we have been given.
