    My mum spent 8 years in the dedicated and loving care that Brimlea provides. I cannot thank John and his staff enough. The low staff turnover meant Mum had consistent caring staff members who formed a wonderful relationship with her. As her mental health deteriorated they easily accomodated mum's changing needs and made her final years a fun and loving time for her.
