Incompetent staff and too many agency as well. What regular staff they have do not even know the residents or their care needs. They do not follow or even read a care plan. What was written about my family member and how they were was false and highly offensive. My family member was always made to do what the staff wanted. They did not get any choice in what they wanted to do. I am so glad they are no longer in that facility. I do not even want to give it a one star rating, the place is that bad in my opinion. I would not even put my worst enemy in there.
My Dad is in here for respite at the moment such a wonderful place, so warm and homely, staff really care from the top to hands on staff..Dad is very happy
Would not recommend, came to collect specimens from residents having a nurse walk past you l, you say hello and they don't respond apparently being on your break means you don't acknowledge staff residents or visitors. I truly feel sorry for the residents that live here.
