Review from L D (Daughter of Resident) published on 20 April 2023 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
The manager and the whole team gave my mum wonderful care. Showed her love and dignity in the three years she was a resident and her final weeks of life.
Dealing with the extra responsibility during the Covid restrictions. I remain grateful! Thank you.

Review from Julie E (Daughter of Resident) published on 9 November 2016 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
This is how all care homes should be from the welcoming decor to the outstanding care given to all the residents.
I, unfortunately, have had dealings with care homes for the past 3 years and this one is phenomenal.
My Mother has been a resident for 2 years and the care shown to her and other residents is excellent. The food is superb the home is spotless what more could you ask for.
It's a big thank you all the angels there.
We sleep well at night knowing that mum's safe and well cared for.

Leeds City Council needs to keep this home going it's a credit to them especially at a time when we are hearing of homes that fall very short of the mark.

We rate most services according to how safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led they are, using four levels:
- Outstanding - The service is performing exceptionally well.
- Good - The service is performing well and meeting our expectations.
- Requires Improvement - The service isn't performing as well as it should and we have told the service how it must improve.
- Inadequate - The service is performing badly and we've taken action against the person or organisation that runs it.
- 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.
