Overall Experience
My mother spent her last few weeks in this care home and I was so happy to find such a lovely place for her. The staff were amazing, her room was nice and whenever I visited, I had the feeling that this was a well-run care home where the staff really care. Thanks to all the staff.

Review from Andy A (Nephew of Resident) published on 3 June 2019 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
My Aunty aged 99 was unable to return home after being in hospital for a few months. My family got involved in choosing her care home and were very careful after having a very bad care home experience a few years ago.
I can not fault Madeline McKenna Court in any way from cleanliness, staff, facilities.
My aunty is happier there than she was at home.

- Not rated - we have not yet rated this area of the service, this is normally because the assessments we have carried out have been focused on other key questions.
