Having removed my mother from a previous "home", we appealed to Jack Dormand successfully for a place. I can honestly say this was a very positive move, and all at the home, from the care assistant to the management, made Mam and the family welcome. They always answered our questions and "bent over backwards" to make Mum comfy and content. Many thanks.

Since day one, when my dad came into Jack Dormand Care Home, he has been treated with respect and really well, in fact, all our family have. We find the staff friendly and courteous. My dad always praises the meals and the dining room.

My mam and dad were both in the home. Unfortunately, my dad died on 21st December 2021. I was astounded at the number of care staff who stood outside to show respect on the day of my dad's funeral. It made us really proud of how much they respected my dad. My mam is still in the home, and the staff are marvellous with her. She has dementia, and they are so understanding and caring with her. Two of the carers, in particular, go into her room and give her a kiss and a cuddle before they go home. Their care is excellent.
A lovely, homely home, brilliant staff, and management. Families are made to feel like part of their family. Nothing is too much trouble. We as a family can rest assured that our loved ones are being cared for. Kindness is there in spadefuls.

Last year my 96-year-old mother-in-law moved into Jack Dormand with Alzheimers/dementia and a number of mobility and health issues. Covid rules made visiting restrictive but staff backed this up with direct contact to my wife and I. The care and compassion shown at all stages until she died...
Our grateful thanks go to all those who work there.

Sadly this year due to the pandemic I have not visited inside the home since February/early March. I know she has been well cared for and due to video calls I have seen her virtually.
Hopefully, visiting will return at some point in the future so I am able to hold her hand, give her a loving cuddle and kiss. Thanks to everyone, nurses, carers, cleaners and admin.

Jack Dormand Care Home is above commendable. It makes other care homes in the area seem inadequate and sub-standard. My friend was, when active, an outdoor man but this has been catered for really well and he is still his happy self. The staff treat him like family and that includes the manager and admin staff. When I am in need of total care, I pray they will have room for me.
My mother is quite happy in the home. She is treated with the dignity and care she deserves. The activities are excellent. I cannot praise the staff enough, neither can my mother's brothers and sisters who are really happy with the care she gets. Once again Thank you HC One.
