I had the pleasure of visiting Amherst Court a few days ago and I was very impressed!!! Seeing all the fantastic activities and outings you organise, well I’m blown away!! Every member of staff I met was happy and helpful. The building was spotless, beautifully laid out, bright and welcoming. The food that was available was fresh and enticing 🥰 I visit many care homes in my job but this one has blown the others out of the water! All residents looked well cared for. Very reassured that my friend is being loved and cared for in a clean home with fantastic staff. Thank you 🥇 ❤️
It was a delicious ice cream🍦🍦
I enjoyed my ice cream yesterday 😋 xx
