My great aunt, aged 92, was cared for at Brooklands for the last 3 months of her life and I cannot praise highly enough the quality of care she received from all the staff.
She loved the food, which was very important to her and we were able to go in and have a meal with her which was lovely.
I went to an afternoon with an Irish singer with her, which we both enjoyed. And we spent one lovely afternoon with her sitting in the grounds. We were hoping to do more of all this and to take her out too, but sadly she died.
Thanks to the nursing staff I was with her when she died, and the whole experience was dealt with in such a kind and caring manner.
The staff at Brooklands enabled her to spend the end of her life feeling secure and cared for and for this our family will always be very grateful.
Thank you Brooklands. |
