Nanna had previously been in two other care homes but only settled once she arrived here. The care was good, particularly from the regular staff who went out of their way to do small things to make both our and Nan's life better.

I wish to say that the family is very grateful for the care Admirals Reach has given my mother (now deceased). The staff were very friendly and I stayed with her all night at the end and the staff were very helpful in making her comfortable on a number of occasions.

My Mother in Law has not been at Admirals Reach very long but the care she receives is outstanding. Everyone is extremely dedicated to their job. There isn't one person that doesn't show dedication. She has settled in very well.
