International Nurses' Day

A big thank you to our nurses this International Nurses Day. This is an opportunity to remind ourselves of the amazing contribution our nurses make and to celebrate their achievements. We are enormously proud of the nursing team at Magnolia Court Care Home. Their passion for the job and commitment to ensuring Residents have the very best care inspires us on a daily basis. I would like to take this opportunity to thank every member of our nursing team for the amazing work they do each and every day.
