They seem to be a change in overall care. Leadership seems much better and staff appear to be working as a team. My sister says the meat is lovely and tender. The last twice we have been, we have felt an overall improvement.

My dad had not been there very long before he was put on end of life care due to his many complex health problems. The staff were so kind and caring. They couldn't do enough for us; not only did they treat him with kindness and respect, they treated us that way too. It would have been nice for him to recover and benefit from everything available.

Excellent care and compassion, since the day my sister-in-law arrived, the staff have been friendly and encouraged her to come out of her shell. She is a different person from the nervous, quiet individual that arrived - she is confident and happy, thanks to the staff here. Thank you all.

York House is brilliant. My mum has received the utmost care since she came in October 2019. Whenever I have visited prior to lockdown, the staff have all been friendly towards Mum's family. She could not have come to a better home. It is a real home from home.

The staff appear to look after her well, and are very kind and treat her with dignity. Mum is unable to convey her thoughts to us, but I think is often aware of what people are saying, and the carers ofter talk and sing with her, which I feel is very important. Music was always very important to Mum, and it would be nice for Mum to be incorporated into her day.

The manager and staff are really nice and friendly. The home is always clean and tidy. Understaffed at weekends which is not acceptable. Residents are distressed at times, as families should have peace of mind.
