Heathland House is a lovely care home, not like any other I have seen. All the staff are amazing and so caring. My dad moved to Heathland House following a 4th stroke and the death of his wife, everyone in the home could not have been nicer. He has settled in well and I can relax knowing that he is being well cared for.
