We are lucky enough to have brilliantly experienced nurses working at Thornton Manor. Their years of experience and training enable us to provide care for a variety of health conditions.
I know I've said it before, but just another confirmation from me, your staff are phenomenal.
All of them coming being involved this morning (to the summer fair), and today, as always, interacting, being smiley and generally being very kind, affectionate and affirming to the residents - it should happen everywhere, it doesn't, and it's so important. You guys have it perfected.

Since joining the team, I have felt incredibly supported and welcomed. The team has been very accommodating, and I have received high-quality training and induction that has helped me settle into my role. The support from my colleagues and superiors has been exceptional, and I feel confident in seeking guidance when needed.

“Hi, Just thought I would let you know I came up to see mum yesterday. She was sleepy but she is clearly being well cared for. The carer gave her lunch with the utmost patience and encouragement. Please pass my thanks to her. There was a clear affinity. Thank you”.
