Celebrating this week, Woodbury Court’s long-standing home manager, Abdul Chirwa, comments, “We are very proud to maintain our QCQ 'outstanding' status. Together with my fantastic team, we always give 100 per cent of our attention to our residents and their individual needs. The living environment we provide and the way we strive to make the residents feel a true sense of wellbeing is also crucial to providing the best care home setting.”
