Mum had been a previous respite resident last year to give Dad a much needed break.. so we already knew what the care home would provide for Mum..and it allowed us to breath and be confident that Mum was in a safe environment until we organised the next step.
We were confident in knowing the service provided would be in Mums best interest.. for care dignity and comfort and her safety.. Thank you to all the Sherwood carers and for Kim in making the stay a seemless transition..
Thankyou for your kind feedback, we will pass this onto the team
Excellent facilities & security - attentive staff - food always appears adequate with a good selection for residents. Only one staff member when I've been which whilst adequate for the majority of the time, there are occasions when I feel extra would be advantageous
