Thank you for your response, we are very happy to have mum at Willowbank.
I can't compare Willowbank to any other care home as I haven't been in any others. Staff are very welcoming, friendly and caring and my son seems reasonably content there.

Thank you for your lovely review. I hope that your mum is doing well, and glad that she enjoyed her stay.
Nothing was too much trouble to help my relative to settle in Willowbank. From the bottom, to the top, of all staff, were amazing. The care and compassion was excellent from arranging care to the end. We felt that Willowbank was a safe and happy environment, which my relative enjoyed.
