“I was so pleased to see Joan on such good form this afternoon. It was great being able to sit with her in her room and chat. It makes such a difference actually being with someone.
I hadn’t seen inside the home or her room, so it was good to be able to do that. Her room is lovely, spacious, and light.
I was relieved that the Covid test wasn’t as awful as I imagined! Thank you for making it all so clear and easy to deal with.
I will certainly come and visit her again soon.”
