A huge congratulations to our team for once again attaining a consistent ‘Good’ rating in all areas at our recent CQC inspection.

The report recognises the excellent care provided by our staff to our residents on a daily basis and also noted the passion to provide quality care and leadership from our fantastic Registered Manager Laura. We received lovely testimonies and comments from relatives and external professionals - thank you all, it is appreciated.

As we approach our 40th year, we could not be prouder of the fabulously hard working and dedicated team at Wykenhurst and are grateful to each and everyone of our staff who make Wykenhurst a truly special home for all who live and work here.

We have never been ones to blow our own trumpet but wanted to acknowledge the continued hard work of our fantastic team, well done everyone and thank you.
