“Choosing a care home for a loved one with dementia is never easy, but I truly feel we made the right decision here. The staff have shown incredible patience, understanding, and compassion towards my father in law, always treating him with dignity and respect. They really take the time to understand his needs, routines, and personality, which has made a huge difference in helping him feel settled and comfortable.”

“I want to express our sincere gratitude for the exceptional care my mum has received since moving into Thorndene. From the moment she arrived, she felt completely settled, and it has been heart-warming to see her thrive in such a wonderful environment. Her appetite has improved tremendously, she often comments on how much she enjoys the delicious, home-cooked meals.”

“My mother stayed here for over 2 years and spoke very little English. Thankfully, the management hired 2 staff members who spoke the same language as my mother to aid her and they also used a translating tool to help. The care is the best in this home, thank you so much.”

“The care and compassion the staff show my mum is second to none. Staff are always friendly and helpful and show they really care for the residents. The meals sound wonderful as mum tells me. As a family, we feel very supported by the staff. They are wonderful to Mum and very thoughtful. Mum has settled well into her new home, and we are very grateful for all they do.”

“My mum was admitted to Thornedene after a long stay in hospital in October 2020 during the Covid pandemic. I cannot thank the staff at Thornedene for their compassion and understanding in what was a very distressing time for me and my sister. My mum has been looked after with such care and love. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff. I would definitely recommend Thornedene.”

“My mum has been here since the beginning of 2016. The staff are doing an amazing job. My mum is well cared for. She has a lovely time with everyone and she is spoilt rotten. The management team and the new owners are so friendly and have an open door policy. If you have any concerns with your family member's care, they will sort it right away.”

Why it matters

How Altruacare stands out

A regulated, directly-employed care team works very differently to an unregulated introductory agency. Here is what that means for your family.

A centrally-managed service

  • Directly employed carers

    Directly employing carers means they receive company benefits, holiday pay and cover from another carer if they are absent.

    YesAltruacare
    NoUnregulated
  • Local service, central support

    Your care team is local to you, while you and your loved ones can rely on the reassurance of our central office team.

    YesAltruacare
    NoUnregulated
  • Experienced managers

    Our managers have worked their way up from carer roles, so they understand how people in the community prefer to be cared for.

    YesAltruacare
    NoUnregulated
  • Standardised training

    Care professionals receive induction and role-appropriate training, supported by supervision and competency checks where required.

Transparent quality standards

  • Clear oversight

    Care records, reviews and safeguarding processes are managed transparently so families know what to expect.

    YesAltruacare
    NoUnregulated
  • Fully vetted & approved carers

    Enhanced DBS checks, right-to-work checks and references are completed before any carer starts.

  • Complies with regulatory standards

    Care plans, medication records and safeguarding processes all follow national regulatory standards.
