I have visited my Mum at St Martin's Care Home twice now, since she moved there recently and am so happy how well she has settled in and how happy she is.
The Manager and Carers/staff are so dedicated and the Carers are so welcoming, when visiting my Mum.
They go out of their way to be kind and caring and are always very curtious ,when calling by phone or visiting.
My Mum often tells me in conversation how the Carers are so good and work so hard and how she enjoys the food and activities.
