It's kept clean a little hot but the elderly love it. You still need to visit and treat your family members as important they need that contact.

Lovely home the staff were very quiet and very helpful to me, the person I visited was very impressed with the care given and the way the staff interacted. It is peaceful and quiet. This is lovely for the residents who have made this their home.
