“Staff were kind, considerate and compassionate in the way they delivered support to people. They encouraged people to be as independent as they possibly could be... People received person centred care. This focussed on their individual needs and recognised their preferred routines.”
“Staff went out of their way to help my Mother in Law, treating her with great care, respect and even affection. I cannot think of a better place."
Son-in-law of Resident, 27-Feb-20, carehome.co.uk
“The staff are excellent and provide real quality care. It's a very happy environment with nice grounds for summer walks. It's always a pleasure to visit.”
Son of Resident, 31-Jan-20, carehome.co.uk
“Our mum initially went in for respite but stayed on. Being active, she joins in with exercise mornings, scrabble, quizzes and craft sessions. She also walks around the newly laid path in the grounds. We cannot speak highly enough of the very kind and caring staff who look after mum so well and treat us, the family, with equal kindness, understanding and thoughtfulness. We are always made welcome.”
