Local MP Hugo Swire has described a Sidmouth care home as ‘outstanding’ after he paid staff and residents a visit.
Mr Swire was visiting Rose Lawn Care Home on Friday (6 May) and was hosted by the home’s manager, Kerrie Howard.
The MP, who is a regular visitor to care homes across East Devon, was given a chance to chat to staff and residents before listening to the Sidford WI Female Choir – the home’s entertainment for the day. Mr Swire subsequently enjoyed being shown around the home by Ms Howard.
Commenting after the visit, Mr Swire said:
‘As soon as you walk through the front door it becomes clear that Rose Lawn is an outstanding care home. Everything about the home from the staff to the entertainment and activities help to create a wonderful atmosphere for the residents. It was no surprise that all the residents that I spoke to were happy and well looked after by Kerrie and her excellent team’.
