"We wanted to touch base and thank every single member of staff who has helped us over the last three years. St Andrews has been our lifeline and I cannot shout enough about how much you all helped us as a family. We will be forever grateful."
Family of Resident
"Since launching Skype within the home, we are enjoying communicating with Mum from overseas. There is a huge improvement in Mum's speech and it is so lovely to see her smile and hear her laugh. The musical activities sound brilliant and she is clearly enjoying this. It really makes a difference to all our lives being able to see and hear each other. You do a brilliant job and we want you to know all your hard work has been appreciated by all of us."
Daughter of Resident
"I would like to say a big thank you for all the care and kindness shown. As far as my husband was concerned, he was 'at home', and I cannot thank you enough for that."
Wife of Resident
"Staff worked very hard to give Mum special moments of fun and laughter. Mum's Keyworker formed a really special bond with her. It is difficult to describe but I guess he just has the X-Factor! I wish we could steal him to be Mum's special friend."

Our Staff

The home provides appropriate ratios of staff both day and night, alongside a day-to-day care ethos that delivers highly-personalised care where dignity, freedom and privacy are consistently upheld. With an industry-envied training programme and ongoing support & development, B&M Care's guiding principles are what define our staff within the dementia care sector.

“I started working in the care sector in 1985, and throughout my career, I have been appointed a number of roles that have contributed me to becoming a Home Manager. Since joining B&M Care at St Andrews, I have developed my practice and learning to further complimented my genuine passion for delivering highly-personalised care that continues to look at the person – rather than ability.”

Marcia Tonkin - Home Manager

“I joined St Andrews in 2011 as a Care Assistant before being promoted to a Team Leader and then into a position that sits within the home’s management team. Throughout my career at B&M Care, I have successfully achieved several qualifications, including an NVQ Level 3 and 4 in Health & Social Care, as well as, most recently, graduating the company’s Management Development Pathway – an invaluable experience!”
