Wow what can I say. Staff friendly and helpful. They were fantastic for what I have seen with all residents. Residents all looked well cared for, and very clean and groomed, which is great. Residents looked comfortable in their surroundings. The home seems to have everything that one would need or want.
Very safe for residents and extremely clean and modern.

The staff is warm and caring, the facility is absolutely beautiful and my auntie is very well looked after. I am so impressed. It felt like a home and not a sterile hospital. The quality of the food is very high and there are many selections of freshly baked cakes. There are well designed cosy conversation
nooks and gathering spaces.

Mum stayed for just over two weeks in November and she was absolutely delighted with the care and attention she received. The home itself is beautiful and Mum especially loved the food. I have no hesitation in recommending Nodens Manor, in fact we have already booked another stay in March. Thanks again.

My father went into Nodens Manor in June 2023. The level of care he received was outstanding. The staff really care, which in this day and age is very rare.
It was sad that he died six weeks after he moved in. But, during the last two weeks I spent a lot of time with him and it was lovely to see this
level of care.
My father died with a level of dignity that was outstanding and the staff were like friends at a very difficult time in my life. I would recommend Nodens Manor to anyone.

Mum spent 3 weeks in Nodens care home and was extremely happy while there.
The level of care was second to none. She was very well looked after. When asked about it she says it felt like staying in a 5-star hotel. Everybody was so kind, nothing too much trouble.
Which allowed us to be able to enjoy
our holiday knowing mum was safe and cared for.
We as a family would like to thank all the staff for looking after Mum so well.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

My long-standing friend whom I was acting as Power of Attorney for spent his last two months in the care of the staff at Nodens Manor. I could not fault the care and attention that was afforded him. Every single member of staff that I encountered showed an outstanding degree of professionalism and devotion
of duty in ensuring his every need was met. They were caring, gentle, courteous and compassionate. They also extended this level of care and attention to all of his family and friends who came to visit and nothing was ever too much trouble.
The facilities are excellent and the whole building exudes a calm, safe and peaceful environment where residents can relax or join in when the mood takes them.

Reply from Charlotte Scarrow, Front of House Manager at Nodens Manor

Thank you for providing such a lovely review towards Nodens Manor. We always strive to provide the best care possible to each and every resident living with us. It was a pleasure to have your friend with us, and we wish you all the best.

Whilst at Nodens Manor Dad was cared for by the most amazing team. They spent time getting to know and like him. This was obvious in their interactions with him. Moving Dad from his home to Nodens was a big step for us all but the team supported us in the most sensitive, caring and professional way,
for this we will always be thankful.

The home is well planned with both community and private areas where family can visit. Visitors are welcome and always offered a coffee or tea, which makes it more of a 'home' for residents. It has been a great move for my mother.

I approached Nodens in early July, as my mum was going to be discharged from hospital. She had been in hospital for five months. I was so happy that she was accepted, as I was concerned that her medical needs were too much. We are on her sixth day and cannot praise all the staff enough. The night manager
makes my mum feel very secure, as she suffers from anxiety. It is very relaxed and feels like home.

My mother and I were made to feel very welcome from our very first visit to Nodens Manor. All members of the Nodens Team have been very kind and professional and have done their utmost to make Mum comfortable and happy here. Nothing is too much trouble; new handrails were fixed in the shower room to
suit her needs, a personal telephone was installed, her room was arranged to enable her to have her own recliner chair and newspapers were ordered for her. Mum’s health and wellbeing are constantly monitored and medical help promptly sought when needed. Her personal care is delivered with care and kindness. Mum can enjoy a walk around the garden safely and enjoys chatting with other residents and all the team members from each department. The communal areas are attractive, spacious and air-conditioned. Members of the family have been enjoying joining Mum occasionally for lunch in the dining room, where we have all been spoilt. Nodens Manor is a place Mum and the family are proud to call home.

Reply from Bartosz Turewicz, General Manager at Nodens Manor

Thank you for your wonderful feedback. It is a pleasure to have your mum living with us, she is a great member of our growing community. We look forward to seeing you again soon for lunch. All the best.

My dad and mum have been in Nodens Manor for about three months and it is the best decision they have made in a long time. They were struggling living at home and the restrictions of Covid-19 had left them isolated, but moving to Nodens has given them a quality of life back. The staff are wonderful
and they actually listen and want to make things better; it is so reassuring to know that Dad and Mum are safe and well cared for. Thank you Nodens.

If anyone is thinking of going here be careful to check everything over because my cousin was misled and ended up in hospital and was declared homeless after he had paid and his sister still hasn't had any answers.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.887)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.887) out of 10 for Nodens Manor 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 34 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 33 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 4.887 for Nodens Manor is calculated as follows: ( (371 Excellents x 5) + (17 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 397 Ratings = 4.887

  • 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 Nodens Manor is based on 33 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 66 registered maximum number of service users is 13.2, which has been reached with 33 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.
