My aunt resided there for 2 years. The manager and all her staff were second to none. All staff were pleasant and helpful. They cared for my aunt with respect, cheerfulness and dignity right up until she passed away. I was very grateful they were there at her end and as loving as always. Thank you is
all I can say and carry on the good work.

From the moment I rang to enquire, the home administrator was so amazing, friendly and honest. When we arrived we felt really safe and comfortable. Mum has been looked after so well and I really appreciate all that the staff have done for her. I did enjoy my chat with the activities coordinator too.
Thank you and wish you all a really Merry Xmas and a "Covid Free" New Year.

My mother has dementia and is also deaf, it was important for the family to select a care home who would cater to her special need. Manor House not only treats her with the utmost respect but they also respect her right to still make choices for herself. We feel this is so important for her as she has
always been a strong and in control person. This year has been so challenging for the staff. I have been in no doubt that the residents safety and care has been the highest priority. We are so grateful to know my mother is receiving the best care and attention, especially when we were unable to visit. Yesterday I was able to visit her properly in the same room since the beginning of March. Thanks to the new system of rapid COVID testing.

Reply from Jemar Legister, Marketing Associate at Manor House

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a positive review. We are extremely proud to know that you are satisfied with your mother’s stay with us. You can rest assured that our kind and hardworking team continue to do their utmost to ensure the high-quality care standards are always maintained. Additionally, regular Covid testing is frequent within our care home as ensuring staff and resident safety has been our top priority in such challenging times. Thank you again, and please stay safe.

The manager is totally upbeat, she is passionate about the home, residents and staff. Each time I called staff were able to give a detailed account of the care given to my mother-in-law and her movements, what had happened, etc. The staff's morale was also apparent with good feeling, knowing that they
too knew of her activities throughout the day, which gives you confidence regarding the care for your loved one.
We are over the moon in such a short space of time - with the care given.

Reply from Alison Foreman, Director of Sales and Marketing at Manor House

To be 'over the moon' is the best news for us! You are right our home manager is passionate about delivering the best of care to her residents and the team, who she fills with confidence, do the same. Thank you for your review, we do appreciate it. Kind regards

Lovely staff. Made Mom feel at home and looked after her extremely well. Overall the facilities were excellent. My only concern was that more able-bodied residents could not use their private showers in their bedrooms. They had to use the manned bathing area. However, this was purely due to safety
for the residents. They so deserve a gold star!!

Reply from Alison Foreman, Director of Sales and Marketing at Manor House

Thank you for your 5* review. The team do all they can to ensure that residents receive the best of care. Should you wish to discuss any aspect of care or services the team are more than happy to speak to you and discuss anything at all. We do appreciate your feedback. Kind regards

My wife has been a resident at Manor House for five and a half years. In that time, she has always been treated with respect. Since the beginning of the pandemic, I have only visited 4 times and each time I have had my temperature taken each time. I think the management and staff have always treated
my wife with respect.

My mother has been at this care home for 3years plus. During the whole lockdown period, all management and carers have worked even harder than they normally do to keep her safe. They always go above and beyond their duties. Mon is always happy, safe well looked after. I can't thank them all for getting
her through this difficult time and always keeping us updated.

I just wanted to say an enormous thank you to the manager and the whole team at Manor House care home. You care for my dad. He has been with you since Sept 19, and my initial impressions of visiting the care home were well-founded. You have a gem here, it’s such a fantastic place for much-loved family
members to live. Dad settled so well. Since COVID the level of attention has been solely in your hands, like many relatives I have felt lost at not seeing my dad, but regular and excellent communications have helped. Dad is very settled, despite his health declining he is wrapped up in the most wonderful care from all staff. You have exceptional standards, but mostly you just care so much. I cannot ever tell you what that means.

Reply from Alison Foreman, Director of Sales and Marketing at Manor House

I can't thank you enough for your wonderful review. Everyone at Manor House has worked so hard to ensure that all residents are kept safe and well. It's been a difficult time but excellent and compassionate care will always shine through. Well done to the whole team. Kind regards

As a family, we would like to say a big thank you to the manager and all her staff at the Manor House for looking after our mother.
She moved into the Manor about 14 months ago and found it hard at first to settle but the staff kept on trying to encourage her to join in. She did start to until she
became too ill. My mom was moved back to the Manor from hospital to end her life where she wanted to be and over the last three weeks of her life. She was looked after so well and when we went to visit the staff went out of their way for us offering sandwiches. When my mom passed they all came in to say goodbye and pass on their condolences. When my mom was been taken from the home for the last time all the staff lined up to see her go, it was a lovely thing to see as a family member.

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.
