Archer Court has a warm, friendly environment. The staff and management have a kind and welcoming attitude. Residents are encouraged to join in and interact on themed days, which my husband seems to enjoy. My husband has his own room where he can retire to if he wants privacy. Rom eats well and has a good and varied diet. Ron sometimes looks a little disheveled but this is due to his dementia and refusing to shower, etc., not due to lack of care. Overall Archers Court is a warm, caring environment, and I am happy that Ron is being well looked after, physically and emotionally.
Thank you so much for your lovely review, your kind words are really appreciated and delighted you are happy with the care and support for your loved one, I will pass your positive feedback to the team, thank you again for your lovely review Home Manager Sharon
