My mother has been in this wonderful care home for almost 4 years. She has dementia and now unable to feed herself. She is always clean and tidy and has regular showers and hair washes (which in elderly people is not always easy to achieve) Her room is light, airy and always clean. All staff are so friendly and welcoming when we visit. We find the lead nurses always easy to talk to and if we have any queries they are happy to answer them. Staff are efficient, caring, respectful and treat all residents with dignity.

My Mum was treated with dignity up until her death. I was kept informed all the way to the end, I think the home did everything they could to make her last days as good as they could. I cannot fault them in anyway.

My husband has dementia and is bed-bound, cannot feed himself, and is doubly incontinent. I cannot fault the care he receives. He is always clean and tidy and in clean bedding. His room is very comfortable, light, airy, and very clean. The carers are lovely people, very attentive and friendly, and treat him with dignity. They are respectful when engaging with him and they answer any questions I may ask. Cups of tea/coffee are always offered to me when I visit. His appointed carers regularly ask me if I have any concerns. The nurses and lead nurses are very efficient, friendly and so caring. Very available when I visit if I need to ask anything.

Myself and family always feel a calmness and serene atmosphere whenever we come to visit. The attention and care given to the residents is fantastic. The surroundings outside and the freedom for the residents to roam outside too are a big bonus. Everywhere is kept beautifully clean too.
