I phoned before visiting, took a Covid test and wore a mask. I also
asked if the care home was wheelchair friendly. I was told it was but
there was no wheelchair ramp. The care home is small and friendly and
there is no nasty smell or anything obviously trying to cover up a nasty
smell. Mum was in the common room watching TV and was able to walk to
her own room. Her room was rather ‘tired’ looking and in need of
modernisation but clean and tidy with her own sink and toilet and a view
out onto the garden. Mum was very happy that a cat occasionally came to
visit. Mum is very happy there and the care home is in a nice setting
and on one floor. I didn’t get to speak to any of the staff. I think
this care home should keep it’s social media and online pages up to date
as I couldn’t find any recent photographs. Also, the prices quoted are
out of date which could be rather misleading to any potential families
looking for a suitable home. I can’t really comment on many of the
questions below.
