I am overwhelmed with the love and care my mum is receiving here.
Abbot Care Home has made such an absolute difference to her life and ours. Thank you for all the love care and compassion you are showing for my mum. Thank you also goes to the entertainment team who constantly bring a big smile to my dear mum's lovely face. The compassion every single person shows in Abbot Care Home is a reminder of how society should be.
I've seen such a change in her.
I honestly feel like Ashlyn Care Home has saved my mum's life.
She has put on weight thanks to the great food and regular meals which she didn't do for herself at home. Her mental health has improved thanks to regular stimulation from the chats with the team and the events the home plans. She wasn't keen to go into a home to start, but now she has a new lease of life and is very happy being part of the Ashlyn family. All the team we meet are friendly and helpful and were great with advice for me when my mum first arrived. I really can't thank them all enough they do an amazing job despite it being very challenging at times.
