Moving a loved one to a care home is probably the hardest decision to have to make, & even more so, finding the best place for them.
From our initial dealings with Manor House to now, four weeks after mum moved in, we have been very happy with how the move has gone. Mum is as settled as she can be,
given her dementia. The staff in the care home are absolutely wonderful. Every member of staff have shown such wonderful care for my mum, & have taken time to know her as an individual, which is so important. Management staff are visible, have good relationships with the residents, and the door to their office is always open. The activities organised for the residents are fun, plentiful and keep everyone engaged and involved. The activity coordinator is fun, enthusiastic and committed, and I can see the benefit that my mum gets from taking part. The food is great too. The staff have been so supportive of us as a family at the hardest time. We are very thankful we found Manor House for mum.

My mom, who has vascular dementia and is prone to falls, has been at the Manor House Care Home for 8 weeks now and will be a permanent resident here, she has settled in well and considering these 8 weeks were over Christmas and included a planed hospital admission for cataract I am surprised at how
quickly this has happened. I put this down to the care staff and the accommodation who have taken their time to get to know my mom and what she likes. I was able to personalise her room with photos, memorabilia and small pieces of furniture from her flat so she felt safe and comfortable, I also believe this helps those with dementia as their health can fluctuate greatly if these are not in place. The safe also supports me with organising a new GP and accessing her health care needs from a different location as Mom came from outside of the Birmingham area. If you are looking for a friendly care home with lovely staff you will not be disappointed.

In the last months, Mum has had a good experience so far at Manor House. I have seen a change in Mum's ability to move her arm up and down due to a great active team. Manor House team are very helpful and supportive towards Mum and family. Asked for an afternoon tea for Mum to catch up with her sister,
they had not seen each other for four years. Chef and team prepared a lovely afternoon tea. Keep up the good work Manor House team.

My father has settled in really well at Manor House. He is happy, feels safe, and put on weight. It has a warm and friendly feel and the rooms are spacious, modern, and clean. The staff are wonderful and treat all residents with respect and dignity. The entertainment coordinator is wonderful and works
really hard to make sure residents are engaged and happy. The management team are also fantastic and any concerns or requests are dealt with swiftly. I would have no hesitation in recommending this care home.

Manor House is absolutely amazing. From the moment I set foot in the home to view it for my Dad I felt it was the right place for him. Sadly he was only there for 5 weeks before he passed away unexpectedly but the care Dad received was excellent. I cannot praise the staff high enough - absolutely everybody
- nothing is too much trouble for them. Dad had a lovely large room overlooking the garden with an en-suite wet room. There was a sink and work surface where visitors could make hot drinks if they wished to. There was also a fridge in the room. The staff all work extremely hard and there's lots of different activities every day for the residents to join in. The meals are amazing, I have never seen so much food served all day every day. The residents are certainly never hungry and all the food is fresh and cooked on-site, with plenty of variation. Manor House is a really happy place, and it's been a pleasure visiting my Dad there. He loved it, as did I. Thank you for everything.

Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We're thrilled to hear that both you and your dad felt at home here at Manor House.

My wife was assigned a very nice room with en suite wet room. All the staff were very pleasant, attentive and professional. No matter what they were assigned to, they all took an interest in each of the residents. The food was very good with varied choices each day. There was plenty of things going
on to stimulate residents if they wanted to be involved. I would highly recommend Manor House to anyone.

Manor House was my father’s happy home for around 22 months. In just three weeks of moving to Manor House, my Dad was making friends and enjoying his new surroundings. He started to put on some much-needed weight and got involved with daily activities and games. The wonderful family at Manor House gave
him his best birthday ever when he reached 101, and he thoroughly enjoyed the whole day celebrating.
My father passed away in November 2023 and right to the end he was so truly loved with care and kindness. Manor House is an outstanding nursing home and I’m so pleased that my Dad was surrounded with love in a wonderful safe caring environment.

Reply from Sarah, Home Manager at Manor House

Thank you so much for sharing this with us. It was our absolute pleasure to be stewards of your father's care and to be able to bring him joy during his time as part of the Manor House family.

My mother spent the last seven months of her life at Manor House when she could no longer live an independent life in her residential village. The time she spent at Manor House, though short, allowed her to relax and shed the anxiety she had been experiencing in previous months. She regained calm and
peace because of the expert and kind attention she received from all the staff and the friendliness of the residents who took her into their community with love and affection. The environment at Manor House is welcoming and warm due in no small part to the quiet efficiency and competence of the manager and administrator. Residents are cared for with great tenderness, respect, and gentle encouragement to share in the many activities Manor House puts on throughout the week to foster companionship among them. It is a happy place.

My experience with Manor House is one of total caring and dignity, with my dear uncle and the communication they constantly updated me with, in regards to his care, right up until the end.
They had many activities for residence to take part in and made you feel part of there wider family. I always
was made welcome on entering this beautiful home.

I visited my friend who moved to Manor House few months ago early this week. I have to say I was very impressed with Manor House, the staff and how clean the care home was. Everyone was so friendly and the care seemed to be outstanding like on the board outside. I was very happy to see my friend healthy
and glowing. She is very well looked after and loved. Thank you everyone at Manor House for helping my friend to live her last journey happily.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.916)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.916) out of 10 for Manor House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.916 for Manor House is calculated as follows: ( (176 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 191 Ratings = 4.916

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Manor House is based on 16 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 37 registered maximum number of service users is 7.4, which has been reached with 16 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
