Review from Catherine M (Daughter of Resident) published on 8 November 2021 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
Staff were understanding of my mum's needs. The room was comfortable. Mum was treated with utmost dignity and care. Although visiting was initially limited due to Covid, when Mum was towards the end of life, visiting was open.
We evidenced the best care during our time visiting at end of life. Staff ensured Mum was as comfortable as she could be and also lovely with us.
