Without being able to go in due to testing positive for covid at the front gate, the overall feel of the welcome was warm, friendly and welcoming. That is the only reason I cannot review with a better score and in no way is it their fault. They couldn't help it if I tested positive. Have however, heard great things about this centre.
Unfortunately our visit was to say goodbye to a resident who was 96 years old. We were very impressed with the care and compassion of the staff, as well as their professionalism
Staff always friendly my in laws are very happy there.
Worked here only for an year or so. Loved working with the team specially as had most of the shifts with Sue and Rose great working with you guys. Learnt so many things. Special thanx to Ashlee and all other whom I have ever worked with. Very nice place and staff to work at. Had to leave as I felt the need to change the profession but all in all had very nice experience. Thank you all.
TLC Sunlight is absolutely fantastic. The staff are so caring and helpful. When you walk in everyone greets you with a smile. I highly recommend taking a look. The live entertainment is fantastic, and the meals are delicious. It is so clean and a very happy environment to be in. My dad is so happy.
