A member of your great staff also went with her to hospital until me and my uncle arrived. We cannot thank you enough for everything that you done.
Your level of care is first class.

My father went into palmersdene nearly 5 years ago. He went in for respite but didn't want to leave. This was all down to the amazing management and staff that welcome him in to the care home. The care and compassion has been outstanding, even when his dementia was at its worst, and because of there care it has made our last years with him so much easier knowing he had 24 hour care. I haven't enough words or praise to say to thank you to them ! What a credit to Anchor this management and staff team are at Palmersdene Thank you with all my heart for taking excellent care of my father

My mother-in-law is very happy at Palmersdene. She is well looked after by the staff who go above and beyond for all residents. There always seem to be lots of activities and shows to keep the residents amused, and outings as well. The home is clean and warm, and beautifully decorated.
