Experiences You Can Trust

The nurses here work closely with relatives to reassure and are very open to keeping us informed around any changes in her care needs. The staff have spent time with Mum getting to know her and are always caring of her and us when we visit. It's always clean in her room and across the home. It's nice to feel you can get to know the staff who are regulars and tend to stay there which to me is a good sign.

Daughter of Resident

I'm so pleased my Mum came to you at the beginning of last October, you as a team are outstanding . I never feel like anything is any trouble for any of you and the relationship we have built between ourselves with Mum first and foremost is fabulous.

Drovers Call has helped me to come to terms with my husband being in care as I know he is so well cared for and I am always kept informed of any issues and changes in care. Thank you Drovers Call!

Spouse of Resident

I would like to thank you all for the care of our dad and grandad. End-of-life care was excellent. So comfortable and clean, excellent. The staff treated him like family. At the very end, you all gave him dignity and peace. You will be thanked forever by all our family. I recommend anyone with an elderly relative who needs the care to place them here, your mind will be at peace.

I just wanted to say how pleased we are that Mam seems to be settling nicely. We are so pleased with the care she gets from all of your wonderful staff - especially as we live so far away
