“Great company, with very supportive staff and carers. Jodie, the manager is always a pleasure to speak with. My elderly father was cared for on different days by both Diana and Rick who were always on time and spent every minute of their stay attending to my father’s needs. Rick did a great job shaving and showering my father as dad could be difficult when it came to showering. Diana would keep the house spotless, and his bedding clean which was a huge help. Both my brother and I have been very grateful for your support.”
