My aunt Lauretta was at Forest lodge for the last 3-4 years. Every time we visited the home was clean, my aunt was looked after very well, the staff were always friendly, always saying hello. When my aunt passed away last week, they made up her bed beautifully, her crotchet blanket on top, vase of flowers at the end of her bed and her Elvis music playing. Staff sat with her and other residents also sat with her for a while. Thank you for all the care you gave my aunt, it was much appreciated. Jodie
