Ponteland Manor

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

My mum has been a resident at Ponteland Manor since September 2022. We are absolutely delighted with the outstanding care she receives. The staff are all so very kind, caring, compassionate and respectful. They treat Mum with great dignity and they really do care about her. They are all so professional
and I feel totally confident in her management. Her room is beautiful and she is very happy and comfortable. There are so many wonderful activities that she can join in with and there is always something interesting happening. The home is so well managed and I would recommend it wholeheartedly.

It means the absolute world to know that our family member is so well cared for - the staff are genuinely all so wonderful and really go the extra mile. Ponteland Manor is always absolutely spotless and so well maintained - there's a really lovely atmosphere there which makes visiting a real joy.

My mother is a long-serving resident. Over the years her care has been consistently good with real care being shown to her. The home communicates clearly and promptly and are very open about my mother's situation.

The home is a clean pleasant environment and the residents appear well cared for and content. Individual tooms are attractive and well presented allowing residents to have personal items which provide a link with their home. Activities take place in communal areas so that a sense of purpose exists,
and life is interesting. More important however is that there is excellent staff who display kindness, friendliness and efficiency. The residents despite their varied conditions seem to be making the most of their remaining years. The carers are unfailingly cheerful and helpful. The manager is efficient, hardworking, approachable and thoughtful. Full marks!

Ponteland Manor

from Garth U (Stepson of Resident) published on 3 May 2024
Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

I would like to thank the staff at Ponteland Manor for the exemplary care they gave to my stepfather. He was there for five weeks of respite, during which time his behaviour became increasingly challenging. This was managed with extreme compassion and sensitivity by all members of staff and regular,
open and honest communication was maintained with the family. Difficult decisions were required regarding his future care, but the manager and her team were invaluable in assisting with the process and supporting me and my mother. There is a friendly and welcoming feel to the home and the commitment and dedication of the staff is evident everywhere. Thank you!

from L T (Daughter of Resident) published on 4 January 2024
Overall Experience  Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5

My mother has been a resident for about 18 months now.
She has become frailer during that time and now prefers to stay in bed. The staff have ensured that she has an appropriate mattress to ensure she is comfortable and negate the risk of bedsores.
She has difficulty eating due to the tremors she
suffers from but does not yet wish to be fed. Staff cut her food up for her but sometimes it is in too large chunks and drier meals are difficult for her, sauces help to make it easier for her to eat things.
In general, staff are very good, as with any organisation some are even better than others at spotting things that are helpful, for example putting her hearing aids in the morning.
Overall, we are very pleased with the care she receives.

Reply from Samantha Debenham, Reviews Team at Ponteland Manor

Parents seem to be settling in well. A few issues are now resolved which is down to parents accepting things and home getting used to their needs. Plenty of activities for them if they wish to attend.
Food is good, Dad particularly likes it.

My wife has been in Ponteland Manor since August 23 and despite it having been a very difficult decision to place her in a nursing home I have seen a level of care which has touched me, the staff treat her with dignity and respect making the decision to place her in Ponteland easier for me knowing she
is being cared for.

My mother went into care originally for 2 weeks of respite. We decided to make this permanent as we were delighted with the care my mother was receiving. All staff are considerate, friendly and caring. The manager is excellent and has found solutions to any issues without a problem. We are very happy
and my mother, more importantly, is. She is well-fed, occupied with various activities and very well cared for.

Always a welcome from my aunt. It seems a community of entertainment i.e. Elvis, petting pony, bingo and occasional coffee at the local club. I like the mix of activities and one-to-one time where staff will spend time with residents. My family have regular contact.

On my first visit, two things stood out immediately: 1) the friendly and attentive care from all staff, a genuine warmth to both visitors and residents and 2) The high standard of maintenance and attention to the environment and atmosphere. The manager was happy to discuss any and every aspect of the
care they provide and has always been warm and professional in their approach. Other family members and friends have visited more frequently than I (as I live and work some distance away) and they echo our appreciation of the high standard of care. Thank you.

It is very difficult to think of something 'poor' to say about Ponteland Manor. The staff are excellent, the food is good, but not always presented attractively.
I cannot do them all justice.

My mum loves all aspects of Ponteland Manor - the staff are lovely, friendly and attentive. The social activities are very engaging and varied. I have complete peace of mind knowing that she is safe, happy and well cared for - put it this way, if I ever needed care in a care home, I'd be more than happy
to sign up as a Ponteland Manor resident!
