Review from Jeff T (Son of Resident) published on 7 August 2018 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
My Mum spent nearly a year in this care home before her death on 19.06.18.
I cannot over-praise this establishment.
Every aspect of the building, food, grounds and particularly the staff were excellent.
You would be hard-pressed to find anywhere better.
The staff became friends to us and Mum.

We miss my Mum but we also miss the staff.

Overall Experience

The nursing and care staff has reached a standard beyond expectation. The staff the cares for my mother are dedicated devoted to the long-term welfare of my mother. The staff appear to be cherry picked from the numerous applications. I would recommend this establishment to all and everyone in need of being looked after.

Overall Experience

Since mum was admitted in March, she has been extremely well cared for. The staff are very kind and professional. The staff have not only been good with mum but also a huge support for me at this very upsetting time.

The home is in superb grounds and a lovely outlook for mum who is bed-bound. It is very clean, rooms well decorated, a home from home.

It is the best decision my brother and I made choosing this home and would recommend to others.

Overall Experience
The first impression is 'What a beautiful place' and this carries on inside. The receptionist is very helpful and the rooms were really nice.
The staff are so patient and caring and so good to everyone they meet.

I couldn't hope for more for my lovely husband, to end his days here.

What a truly lovely place. My mum's last days were spent here. She thought she was at home. The staff without exception were outstanding. The manager runs a loving caring environment - it's spotless. The food is great as well.

Overall Experience

After moving my Mother away from another care home how I wish we had found Magna so much sooner. I cannot fault the place. The staff are happy and committed. They work as a team from nurses to housekeeping, from the kitchen to carers they are all dedicated to the residents and go out of their way, on all fronts, to make sure everyone is happy and cared for. The rooms are light and airy with beautiful views. The whole place is spotless. The food is varied and delicious but they are very willing to cater for little whims and fancies. There is a coffee bar for visitors which includes lovely cake! There is a variety of activities which vary from week to week so no boredom here. The residents have regular meetings and are involved in choices & decisions. There are also regular meetings held for families. It is in a quiet rural setting with extensive, accessible grounds. So pleased at the fuss and care they give Mother and the wonderful support they give to me. Definitely a home from home.

I am so well looked after, I can't believe how lucky I am. It is a wonderful place. I have a beautiful room overlooking woodland. My washing is done every day and comes back on hangers.

The nurses and carers are always around and help me all the time.

Overall Experience
My husband had been in Magna Care Centre for more than a year when he first went there from Poole hospital his health was very poor, everybody thought that he wouldn't make it but after a month his health had improved a lot because he was looked after by all the kind and friendly nurses, besides these all the other staff are very nice and helpful as well and always have a smile on their faces and made you felt comfortable to stayed there.
All the rooms and public areas are very clean and tidy and I can move my husband in the wheelchair around the building with no problem.

In the future, I would recommend my friends to come here if they need care.

My wife transferred from a residential care home to The Magna Care Centre one year ago. She is a lot happier now obviously due to the excellent room and surroundings, the friendly care and attention she receives from the nursing, care and activities personnel.

Meet the Team (1)

Kayleigh Frulli
Kayleigh FrulliJob Title:Home ManagerJoined: 2010

With over 16 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.

When I’m not wearing my manager’s hat, I’m a busy mum of three and can often be found out walking our little dog, Bob.
