All the staff are friendly, caring and attentive. They know all the residents and their likes/dislikes.
There are lots of varied activities for the residents and the staff join in. It feels like a lovely family environment where the staff work tirelessly for those in their care.
If I have any concerns
re mum, I raise them with staff and they act promptly, providing updates and reassurance.

Brantley has a lovely atmosphere, friendly staff and feels like a family home. the carers are all very friendly and always happy to chat.
The food is lovely with amazing cooks, they do wonderful cakes for birthdays and any other celebration.
This year they invited relatives to have Fathers day
lunch with our dads and it was a wonderful meal.
The manager is always available if you need to chat and is very supportive to the residents and family.
Improvements are being carried out to a high standard and the garden is having a make over.
My parents are very happy to be there and enjoy the entertainment and feel safe and comfortable living at the home.
Can recommend Brantley to anyone looking for a home for their loved ones to live.

My mother moved into Brantley Manor in August, following a fall at home that necessitated a hospital visit. I didn’t know the care system at all, but when I called Brantley Manor (after a recommendation from one of Mum’s friends) their manager could not have been kinder, calmly explaining everything
to me and answering all my questions.
As well as showing Mum the utmost care and respect since she moved in, the staff have always had time for my questions, providing reassurance to me at a very difficult time.
Mum is now a permanent resident at the home, and while Mum’s situation is a sad one (she has advanced dementia and is non-verbal), I know Mum is being well looked after.
I love the fact that the home is on social media, so we sometimes catch a glimpse of Mum on there, taking part in some of the many activities the home arrange.
I would have no hesitation recommending this home. The staff are friendly, caring, and professional, and the atmosphere is always homely and welcoming.
Reply from Suzanne Slaven, Care Home Manager at Brantley ManorThank you for your lovely words, our care starts from the first phone call, we raise that this is a difficult decision for some, we try to keep things simple and explain the process to help.

Without exception, the staff of Brantley Manor Care Home have been kind and generous in not only making Mum feel at home and cared for but also with dealing with the family rollercoaster of emotions which comes with moving a loved one into a care situation. The food looks lovely and being served in
the light dining room with music playing makes it a real social occasion. It’s early days but I don’t think we could have found anywhere nicer.
Reply from Suzanne Slaven, Care Home Manager at Brantley ManorThank you for your kind words. At Brantley, we value family and friends as part of our family and appreciate how difficult it can be to move your loved ones into a care home, we try our best to make this as smooth as possible.

My mum has been in Brantley Manor Care Home now for nearly three months and still is a resident. Mum is being cared for by a wonderful, helpful, polite and kind staff. There is nothing that is to much trouble for the staff to sort out for the residents. They have people in to sing, help with exercise
and also to do crafts. My mum is really enjoying being there and also when we leave after a visit it's so comforting that Mum is happy when we leave. Thanks to Brantley Manor staff for for being so caring.
Reply from Suzanne Slaven, Care Home Manager at Brantley ManorThank you for such lovely words. So happy that you feel comforted that Mum is happy here, she is a pleasure to care for and we love her cheeky side.

With heavy hearts, we had to put Mum into Brantley Manor with sight loss and the onset of dementia. Mum was getting upset at being on her own. Putting Mum into Brantley Manor was hard but the care she is receiving is the best. Someone is always on hand to help, lots of cups of tea, food has lots of
choices and the staff are lovely and friendly.
Reply from Suzanne Slaven, Care Home Manager at Brantley ManorThank you for your lovely words, Mum is such a character and has us all in stitches laughing with her humour.

My mother has been a resident since mid-October. She is included all of the time and made to feel she is at home. There is lots of activities for the residents to join in with, should they wish. The staff are lovely and very friendly, yet professional at the same time. It gives us peace of mind knowing

I volunteer at the home playing saxophone to the residents. The staff are very friendly and always very welcoming. The residents always look happy and the staff sing along with them. The social events offered to the residents are really varied, interesting and engaging. Well done, team Brantley, look
forward to seeing you again soon.
Reply from Suzanne Slaven, Care Home Manager at Brantley ManorThank you for your lovely words and for giving up your time freely, to put a smile on, not only the residents, but the staff's faces.

My mum and dad are very happy living at Brantley Manor and we are over the moon with the care they receive. All staff are very friendly, kind and understanding to both my parents and us every time we visit. Really feels very homely, just like one big happy family, nothing is too much trouble. Food is
amazing, all homemade with a wonderful choice for every meal. They have daily activities that everyone is encouraged to join in. I'm always happy to recommend Brantley Manor.
Reply from Suzanne Slaven, Care Home Manager at Brantley ManorThank you for your wonderful comments, I am happy we are achieving our goal of a homely home and family atmosphere.

My father has only been a resident for a few days and already I can see he is thriving. The care he is getting is outstanding. All of the staff say hello and chat to him and to me. He is included all of the time and made to feel he is at home. The food is very good and the drinks are constantly supplied
and encouragement given to drink often. Residents have several different rooms they can sit in, as well as a dining area, which is very bright and a nice, enclosed garden with seating outside too. There always seems to be thought behind the daily activities and we can see what residents have done that day through the social media updates, which is a comfort. My dad is happy here and his conversation has improved.
Reply from Suzanne Slaven, Care Home Manager at Brantley ManorThank you for your lovely words, we aim to keep up with our outstanding care.

Very impressed with the whole caring attitude of the staff and the constant attention to the needs of the residents. My father-in-law was welcomed as part of the family on his first day and was happy, sitting, chatting and drinking tea when we visited yesterday, he is more alert and attentive than he
has been for a long time.
Reply from Suzanne Slaven, Care Home Manager at Brantley ManorThank you for your lovely words, we welcome each and every one of our residents and their family into our Brantley Family.

Mum moved into Brantley Manor in December 2021. She had a tough transition moving from her home into the care home, but the staff were lovely and very caring and we now feel Mum is a lot more settled. We feel it is a very homely atmosphere.
Reply from Suzanne Slaven, Care Home Manager at Brantley ManorThank you for your lovely comment. Mum is settled and loves her dancing.

The staff are always very friendly and incredibly helpful. The care that my mum receives is very professional and understanding of her needs. Whenever a photo is posted on the care homes website she has a smile on her face. I am able to go about my life knowing that my mum is well looked after, safe
and happy.
Reply from Suzanne Slaven, Care Home Manager at Brantley ManorThank you for your lovely comment. I am glad that our websites are keeping you updated with mum's care. We love having her here and are glad she is settled with us now.

Mum has been happily living at Brantley Manor for around nearly four years and is definitely well looked after. Whilst her health has declined, staff have been continuing to meet her needs and in particular getting to know her likes and wishes - no easy task when communication is not the easiest and
the staff make time to share activities, and support. The craft/music/entertainment activities and atmosphere are inclusive and birthdays are celebratory events including fabulous personalised cake! For those not immediately local, Brantley provide great social media updates - so we can see the various interactions and visitors (human and animals) to the home. This is so reassuring and I would thoroughly recommend Brantley Manor to those looking for care for their parent.
Reply from Suzanne Slaven, Care Home Manager at Brantley ManorThank you for your lovely comments, I am so pleased you are able to keep in touch with our social media, this has become a huge part of our communication with most families.

My mother has been coming to Brantley Manor for respite and daycare. The staff are very caring welcoming and very respectful. My mother is very happy attending Brantley Manor. There are always activities that are appropriate, enabling all to participate. I have been extremely impressed with the daycare
service, so flexible, enabling me to have a day break.
Reply from Suzanne Slaven, Care Home Manager at Brantley ManorThank you for your lovely comment. We are so pleased that you are able to take time for yourselves and happy to care for your mum, while you do so.

My dad is a new resident of Brantley Manor after a difficult time in hospital. As a family, we were heartbroken that he wasn't able to return home. However, all the staff have been so welcoming, supportive and caring. We are confident that Dad is safe, clean and very well fed, as well as encouraged
to participate in the different daily activities. The staff are genuinely caring, approachable and empathetic. As a family, we have peace of mind that my dad is receiving the best possible care.
Reply from Suzanne Slaven, Care Home Manager at Brantley ManorThank you for your lovely comments, it is good to hear that you have peace of mind about your Dad being here.
