    To be avoided at all costs-I made the gravest mistake of my life when I put my dear friend in this home. He was only in 4-5 weeks before he died. Failure in many ways but final failure was when they promised to get a doctor then failed to do so. They also Failed cqc inspection at the time he was there. Complete cover-up and total failure to answer my complaints.
