I am grateful of the wonderful care and compassion my mother is shown. Especially during COVID-19, where times are uncertain and can be scary for the elderly residents.

Donna Malpass

I think the communication is excellent and the staff are friendly and caring which is very reassuring. Most importantly, my mother seems very happy.

Louise Bennett

When my mother goes to exercise sessions the exercises are explained to her while holding her hands and feet and she can participate with much joy....she is nearly blind.
