The staff at Windyhall are always approachable and friendly. They keep you up to date with any changes in relatives health or comfort. There is a lovely friendly atmosphere and visitors are always made welcome when they visit. There is plenty of entertainment and craft activities. The rooms are kept very clean and homely. This review is written during the covid 19 lockdown and the staff have all taken exceptional care of my relatives.
Mum has been in the home over the last couple of years. It's never easy taking the decision to put your mum into a home but her nursing needs couldn't be met at home so she needed to move to a safe environment for her well being. I took comfort from the staff at Windyhall that this was to become...
This has become ever more important during the Covid-19 crisis and to date, fortunately, all the residents and staff within Windyhall have managed to escape the virus. They took the decision to isolate early in the crisis.
The staff are doing a fantastic job entertaining and caring for the residents but now with everything else going on in the world, it highlights what a great job they do and how grateful we are as a family for looking after Mum.
Thanks everyone.
Thank you Brian, for taking the time to review and your kind words are very much appreciated.
