I arrived at Dormy House straight from hospital. I could not believe how wonderful the accommodation is, how welcoming and caring. There are plenty of activities for all abilities and everyone joins in. Alternatively if you wish to sit quietly there are rooms or your own room.

First time to this home, which I would 100 per cent say is a 5-star. No unpleasant smell, it smells just wonderful. Very friendly staff, and 5-star cleanliness, that's for sure. Beautifully updated, and always lots here to do for the residents. In all 5 stars.

I visited my grandmother today, she looked very well kept, the staff were good with her, bringing her drinks and snacks, and were very attentive to her, which was lovely to see. The home itself is very clean and tidy and lovely views from the windows. Excellent place.

My sister receives exceptional care and we are very pleased with her physical progress at the home
The facilities are excellent and comprehensive.
Cleanliness is always going to be a challenge for some and there is a wide variety of needs required for such a diverse collection of guests but a challenge the staff seem more than able to cope with.
A special highlight for me is the quality, variety and availability of food at the home

Originally from the Philippines, I am a nurse by profession, and I’ve been working in the care sector for more than 20 years since moving to the UK. I continually try to enhance my knowledge and skills as a nurse. As a Home Manager, it allows me to make a difference across the wider community.
I was part of an NHS pilot project designed to reduce hospital admissions, not just in residential care but for any elderly person at home. It was a fascinating project, and I am proud to have been at the forefront of this initiative.
What truly resonates with me is the personal connection I foster with the residents. I prioritise spending meaningful time with them, integrating myself as a familiar presence rather than just an authority figure, and ensuring their comfort and well-being. I sit next to them and find the time to check the whole home’s environment and work closely with my wonderful team here at Dormy. For me, caregiving is a heartfelt commitment to providing the level of care I would want for my own family.
Drawing from my upbringing in the Philippines, where intergenerational living is customary, I approach each resident as a cherished member of my own family, overseeing every aspect of their care with meticulous attention.
