I am happy with all the treatment and care from everyone at St. John's. My mother has been very happy here. She likes the activities provided and loves the parties that are held. The new lounge/diner looks amazing, made to a high standard.

St John's Care home is a comfortable home where I have found all staff to be pleasant and dedicated. They all carry out their duties in a professional manner. It is comforting to see residents encouraged to take part in the various activities.

Since the Activities person left, the residents are just sitting about and are bored doing nothing. It seems a shame as he kept them active with different games and little jobs in the garden.

Mum has had a whole year in your home came 20th May. I am so pleased how she has finally settled in and becoming more interested in the entertainment and getting out of her room. So sorry they are short of entertainment staff at the moment but look forward to more input from a replacement. Mum enjoys mini bus days out and a bit of banter from the staff. I am happy that she is happy and settled.
My mother is well cared for in this home. She enjoys the food and has all her own things around her which is important to her. The staff are very caring and obliging. Nothing is too much trouble. Only wish they would encourage her to integrate more.

Nan seems well care for and as happy as she can be. The room is a little dark due to the angle of the window. Staff seem very caring.
