The staff at Thorncliffe are wonderful and have really helped my dad settle in to the home.
He has done more activities that I have not seen him be able to do in a long time, like cooking buscuits.
Thank you all for all you do for my dad.

When I was becoming increasingly fraught as the sole carer of my husband who has Lewy Body Dementia, Thorncliffe was a life saver! They were so supportive, understanding and accommodating. My husband immediately felt at home and thought the staff were lovely.
I found that they listened and were
very flexible in providing me with respite so that I could continue to care for him at home for as long as possible. He now has another home and family.

I have confidence that the home is able to give my mother the best care possible. The staff always treat her with respect & dignity. They take her needs into concideration. There is a welcoming family atmosphere among the staff + residents. I have peace of mind that any concerns regarding mums care
will be addressed appropriately & in her best interests.

The home feels more like a hotel. Friendly staff who are attentive to the residents needs and wishes. The homes greatest asset is the 'entertainment manager'. The activities really make a difference to the residents. Senior staff have a good knowledge of both the residents and requirements.
I'm
sure that once the new extension is finished the overall experience will be excellent.

Thorncliffe Care Home: Outstanding Care with Heart and Professionalism
Choosing a care home for a loved one is never easy, but from the moment we found Thorncliffe Care Home, we knew we had made the right choice for our mum. The care, compassion, and professionalism shown by everyone-led by the
wonderful manager, has been nothing short of exceptional.
She sets the tone for the whole home. Her leadership is calm, caring, and incredibly hands-on. You can tell that the staff respect her deeply, and that she genuinely cares about every resident and their family. She always takes time to speak with us, answer any questions, and make sure everything is running smoothly. It's clear that Thorncliffe isn't just her workplace-it's her passion.
Under her guidance, the entire team provides person-centred care that is second to none. Mum isn't just looked after-she is truly cared for. Her individual needs, preferences, and routines are all respected, and the team go above and beyond.

Thorncliffe is a wonderful care home. The carers and all other members of the staff are amazing and the care is simply first-class.
Mum was a resident at Thorncliffe for 3 years. Mum was loved and cared for from day one right up to and including her end-of-life care earlier this year. The
compassion shown to us as a family during this difficult time was second to none.
Mum was showered with love and the carers catered professionally for all of Mum's needs as her Alzheimers progressed. They ensured Mum was happy, comfortable, clean, well-fed, entertained and safe at all times.
Thorncliffe is a very special place. All of the staff are like a "family" and as such treat their residents, visitors and all members of staff like their extended family. You can feel the warmth as soon as you enter the care home.
I thank you all from the bottom of my heart for looking after and caring for my mum. She really could not have been in a better place. This is an outstanding care home.
