    hello people, I put my dad and mum here a few years ago and for a while I though it was great but last year I got a phone call with dreading news. my parents were on the other line telling me to hurry up and take them out. turns out for a while they were being abused in lots of ways. the workers would do many things, I race over there with a few friends and we do a full on heist to break them out. once we get them we see their lifeless faces and race home to take care of them. update: they are all good and healthy now

    Violette, Sandra Rita and all the team at Lemongrove take great care in ensuring all their residents feel at home and feel like family. I am always welcome any time of the day. Violette, Sandra and Rita are always there to answer any if my concerns. What my grandmother loves about the place is that it has a Christian feel

    Grandmother is very well taken care of here. Can visit anytime you like and allow you to bring pets, which is very important for my grandmother to see her beloved dog.

    I would like to suggest all the agency staff to get mentally prepared for the humiliation u face when u work there. Their behavior is different with the boss & different with you. They wont consider you as a worker bt as a slave. I understand its difficult to work @ starting bt it doesn't mean u can make them fell like hell. From kitchen staff to co worker they will make u run all over the place & they dont even give u allocation work sheet & will be pusshing u through out the shift.

    My husband was recently a resident of Lemongrove Gardens. I can not speak more highly of the staff. He was well looked after. A staff member asked him what his interests were and promptly produced books of interest. The staff are friendly and do whatever they have to keep the person happy. There are many activities which the residents can take part in if they want to. The garden rooms are lovely and my husband was lucky to have one. The best thing for me was all the lovely clean laundry that came back.
