The manager is an asset to Aria care and this home deserves 10/10
I also worked in the care industry and still work as a medical lead so you can imagine I would naturally look for any faults but there are none and this is reassuring for the whole family.
Super team super home

My mum was a resident for 14 weeks following the death of my father. During this time, I saw her transform from a desperately lonely widow to someone who started to live again, enjoying good food, company and laughter. The staff were always so friendly and fun, and she had begun to make wonderful new friendships with both them and the other residents. The daily activities were well through out, my mum loved joining in, and I loved seeing the wonderful photo updates from the activities coordinator. My mum had a wonderful bedroom which was warm, bright and fresh and she herself was always clean and well dressed. I loved going to visit my mum at Magna and was made to feel so welcome and part of the Magna family. I cannot recommend Magna Care Centre highly enough. I will be forever grateful for the love and care they provided my mum in her last moments on this earth.

My cousin was a resident in Magna Care for two months and we were so impressed by the care he received. He was bedbound and so not able to avail himself of many activities on the lovely grounds. The staff were kind and attentive and always made time for us.

The welcome we received when we first arrived was amazing and very reassuring as we were a little anxious not knowing what to expect. No problems with the complex tablets my husband takes. He was made comfortable and at ease as he was rather anxious moving in permanently. The staff have all been marvellous and if anything crops up unexpectedly, they immediately solve the problem.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us such a fantastic review! We're happy to hear that your husband is receiving such great care at Magna Care Centre and will pass on your kind comments to the whole team.

Thank you so much for your feedback, Janet, we really appreciate hearing from friends and family of residents and we'll be sharing your lovely comments with our team.
Things are really quite good, but the lounge could do with being bigger now that you have more residents. Staff very helpful and friendly.

The love and care provided for our friend at Magna was second to none. We couldn't have wished for a lovelier place for our friend to spend his final weeks. Thank you.

The team immediately involved her in an activity that was in full swing whilst we went through the essential needs and care needs.
They also ensured her inclusion in the activities but respected her when she wanted to rest. The team also showed caring for our family as we visited, always greeting us with a smile and a word of comfort or a piece of information.
I cannot speak highly enough of the whole team and of our experience.
Thank you David for taking the time to leave us a review and for your lovely comments about the respite stay your sister had with us. The care and services we deliver as a team to our residents and families is extremely important to us. Your wonderful comments have been passed on to the team who will be delighted to hear your feedback.

With over 17 years at Magna, I lead a dedicated and compassionate team committed to delivering exceptional residential and nursing care. My background in intensive, elderly, and stroke care shapes the person?centred, dignified approach I bring to every aspect of our home.
Having progressed from Registered Nurse to Deputy Manager and now Home Manager, I have a deep understanding of our residents, their families, and the local community. I’m passionate about creating a warm, respectful environment where meaningful social connection enriches daily life. Making even one person’s day better is what motivates me.
Magna is a relaxed, home-from-home setting, and the welcoming atmosphere is a true reflection of the incredible team I’m proud to lead. Their kindness, commitment, and willingness to go the extra mile are at the heart of everything we do.
Outside work, I enjoy spending time with my large family and making memories together.
