From my husband's arrival by ambulance to the day of his passing six weeks later, the detailed and dedicated personal care given by everyone was beyond outstanding both by day and by night. His dignity was respected at all times. As a family, we were all welcomed with a smile and kept completely informed about his condition. Every aspect of his life was improved - physical, mental and spiritual - by the excellent care given in this home.
As a family, we have been so thrilled with the outstanding and considerate care our father has received. Nothing is too much and we can rest easy knowing his every need is being met. We couldn't ask for better.

I find everyone very kind. The food is nice. I love the garden watching the pigeon in the water bowl having a bath. But I don't like the bed that much.
