Beware this company includes interest monthly after your loved one passes away. If you have a solicitor it can take up to 6-9 months or longer to complete their estate. My experience was terrible from the start, bullying from day one and the level of care was not satisfactory.

It is always sad when a resident passes away, and is upsetting for anyone who has a connection with them (including the staff at the home). Unfortunately, when a loved one passes, there is nothing that we can do about the length of time it takes to settle an estate, and that is why we have a contract with the resident and/or their relative or guardian, to ensure that everything is carried out in accordance with the National Care Contract.With regards to the Care in the home, our grades with the Care Inspectorate are at Very Good, and are a reflection of the care delivered in the home
