I visited my sister after she moved here a few weeks ago. This place is as much as home from home as you will find. I love that the staff do not wear a uniform which makes for an informal environment. My sister has a lovely, homely room with all her furniture and personal things that make it her home.
The staff were at hand without being intrusive and talked like a friend rather than a carer, absolutely wonderfully caring and genuine people who love their job. I was made to feel I was entering my sisters home and not a institution. Well done to this amazing team and thank you for being a friend to my sister.
