Thank you for the Positive review Paul, Mom is a pleasure to care for I will pass your credits on to the team.
I am very happy with the standard of care that is being provided for my relative, who initially was adamant that she did not want to go into a care home.

I am very happy with the standard of care that is being provided for my relative, who initially was adamant that she did not want to go into a care home. Within a few days of being admitted for 'discharge to assess' she asked to stay as a permanent resident. I always ask her if she is still happy and she always responds positively. The staff and management are very helpful and patient. I am very impressed by the cleaning regime at this home and they are meeting the needs of my relative.
Thank you for the positive feedback Julian, I will pass this on to the team. It certainly means a lot to us when our service users request to stay. Kind regards.
I have always found the staff and other patients kind and helpful whenever I come to visit.

Many thanks for the lovely review. I will pass it on to the team.
This care home has greatly improved under the new manager. I am so happy with the positive changes. Residents lead a fulfilled life and are given choices on their daily living. The food is wonderful. The home is clean and bright with dementia signage all round. I would recommend this home highly.
