I’ve just returned home after six weeks respite following an injury from a serious fall. I found my stay there a very enjoyable experience. I had come from 11 days in public hospitals and surgery. I found Opal to be far superior in 1. Standard of care. 2. Staff morale. 3. Cleanliness . 4. Food quality. The lifestyle team made my stay feel similar to a sea cruise I took in 2018! At 83 years of age I have to admit it was very tempting to stay there! A big thank you to all the staff.
