From the first time I was invited to see the home and where my husband would be, until today, I have been very happy with the home, staff and management of Florence House. The carers and staff are all very caring and friendly towards my husband and me. The carers and staff are very supportive and very
good at their jobs. Thank you all for caring so well for my husband and making my life easier, knowing he is so happy and well looked after. It's a great relief to know that he is in such a wonderful home.

Mum has been a resident now for about 1 year and a half. Care is exceptional as mum is not the easiest to look after. At times she gets very frustrated and angry because of her dementia. Staff are all so very kind and patient with her. They always have a smile for us when any family visit. Home is
always very clean and all residents look very clean and tidy. The home seems to run very efficiently and nothing is too much trouble.The entertainment organisers are especially amazing & always go above & beyond to keep the residents happy & occupied.

My experience when visiting has always been a pleasant one. Your staff are welcoming, friendly and polite.
I always find my husband in clean bedding and his room is always clean. He's always clean and tidy, due to the care he receives from your staff. We had a lovely time at your summer barbecue.
You managed to bring my husband down into the garden to join us. friend and myself also enjoyed our time at the barbecue; it was such a fun event. Thank you from me. Your staff often tell me if my husband has had a good day, which is lovely to hear.
You arrange things like cutting of toe nails, hair cuts which is always good to hear. I do look forward to coming in to visit my husband and I do believe that's partly down to the friendly warm welcome I get from your brilliant staff.
I have been visiting for just over 4 years and never have I had any doubts about my husband's care.
I'm very grateful to Florence House and all the lovely staff.

My father was transferred from a care home to Florence House. He was a little confused initially, but soon settled in. All the staff, carers, nurses, activities,administration and managerial are all very professional, kind, caring and respectful. My father loves it there and I know that he is very well
looked after and I thank them from the bottom of my heart for that. I'm looking forward to celebrating my father's 98th birthday in July with him and the staff as they really push the boat out with cards, gifts, balloons and of course cake. Thank you all so very much for what you do for my father and the residents of this lovely home.

My mother has been in care now since coming out from 2 2-month stay in hospital. For 6 weeks now and another 2 weeks in that time, I have found the staff/nurses very friendly helpful well organised and caring for my mother in a respectable professional way. She has already put on weight 3 kilos, still
underweight, and bed-bound, but she is in late Alzheimer's, Dementia at age 82. She is very clean and they always ask if you want food and drinks. In my opinion excellent first time in a care home.

I went to Florence House yesterday to visit my father who is in a bad way, but the nursing staff and the manager were amazing and doing such a good job with my father. As for his birthday, they even put balloons and banners up for him on his door and his window and they made us so welcome. How he did
improve there since he came out of hospital and he even put on some weight, but I want to thank all of the staff for what they have done for him. The room was so much better than I thought and there was enough room in there too, so I was so surprised to see all of the cards he had received on the mantelpiece where he could see them. You have all helped him so much and I thank you from the bottom of my heart and he has done well. Even though he is a fighter, he is struggling now as he isn’t so strong, but he still keeps on going and such an amazing man is my father. So many thanks to all of you and to the manager who spent some time with me.

Hello - our mother has been looked after by the Orangery Care Home in Aldershot for the last few months. My brother and I have both been very impressed with the level of service and the general empathy the staff offer the residents. Our mum has settled in very well and has really benefited from the
interaction with other residents and staff.

My sister moved into the Orangery Care Home in May 2023, ten months ago. With the beginnings of Dementia, she found it difficult to adapt to her 'new home', but is relatively settled now as could be in the circumstances. I am so glad my sister is in the care of the Orangery! The Management team are
efficient, wise and always ready to listen and act accordingly. This is most assuring to us her family. I can go to bed at night knowing I need not worry about my sister! The Caring and Nursing staff are brilliant. They have adapted to the needs of my sister as her mental and mobility capacity has deteriorated. I have absolute confidence in this lovely home for these vulnerable dear older ones in our families and would be more than happy if my children decided to choose this place for me! I am happy and more than willing to highly recommend this Care and Nursing Home. Thank you - to all of the staff!

Reply from Dafinka Aleksandrova, Manager at Orangery Care Home

Thank you for appreciating the hard work and praising the staff. We will continue to support your sister and the family, and the rest of the vulnerable residents through the difficult journey of Dementia.
Thank you for your understanding, and for your regular visits and support.
With regards on behalf of the team.

My brother was in the nursing home. What a lovely place for him to have been in, in his final weeks. The staff are absolutely outstanding and very helpful in every possible way. The kindest, most caring and most attentive people you would ever want to look after your loved ones. The staff went out of
their way and beyond anything expected for my brother, and also the management team were very helpful as well.
I cannot thank you enough on behalf of our family, my sister and myself for your wonderful care to the end.
Well done, Orangery Care Home! You will always come very highly recommended by us.

Mum, aged 89, was transferred to Florence House for palliative care following an operation for a fractured hip and a fractured wrist. She survived for only 10 days and during that short time the effect on her well-being and appearance was very significant. The staff were invariably sympathetic, kind
and attentive, resulting in an overwhelming improvement to her appearance and comfort. During this short, but important final phase of her life, the family were invariably impressed with the staff and thankful for the improvement to her final days. It was for both our family and the staff of Florence House, a job well done.

My mother has been in care at Manor House for the last three years with dementia and has received the finest of care and understanding due to her condition, she has had two falls one of which resulted in a fracture to her hip this was taken care of with the utmost speed and I'm glad to say she is walking
around again. I cannot praise the staff highly enough they do a difficult job with a smile on their faces a job which I know I could not do. They organize the client's Christmas events and extra items which is not in their job description and all with a smile.
Well done Manor House staff you make my mother's life that bit happier.
Happy New Year to you all.

My mother has been very well looked after during her stay at Manor Place. Despite her difficulties with ill health, both physical and mental, she has been treated with dignity and respect at all times. The staff are cheerful, amazingly patient, and helpful. The management team are readily accessible
and are always willing to talk about worries or concerns if they should arise.
My mother's final days were handled with great care and sensitivity, both towards her and towards me and other family members. I felt that the staff were as upset as we were as they considered mum to be part of their family too.
I am extremely grateful to the kind, caring manager and her amazing team.

My husband became unconscious 3 times during 25th July - October 2022. The first time he stopped breathing and if it wasn't for the exceptional staff I don't think he would have made it through. I was called in, the paramedics were on their way. When I arrived the medics told me that he would probably
not pull through. However, when I spoke to my husband he came round and started to recover. I refused for him to be taken to hospital, as I knew he would have better care and be happier in Manor Place. The 2nd and 3rd times were not so severe, the staff were wonderful. I have nothing but praise for them.

This nursing home is excellent. The manager and her team make sure that residents are safe and secure. Activities are arranged for them and a special newspaper is published frequently with reminders of the past for elderly and not so elderly residents. I try and visit everyday and am always greeted
by attentive and friendly staff. I enjoy sitting in the garden with my wife in the summer and in the spacious orangery in the winter. I am confident that my wife is being looked after properly and if any issues arise, then they are always addressed promptly by the management and/or the nursing staff. The carers are always polite, patient and cheerful. The staff/patient ratio is very good at this nursing home. A well run and happy home.

The staff of Manor Place Nursing Home provided excellent care for my father during his 18-month stay. He was well cared for, given his special dietary needs - he was Celiac and also needed dairy free food. He also had other medical problems which were managed well under very difficult circumstances
during the COVID epidemic. Good safety measures were taken. We were impressed by the care and attention of all the staff who looked after my dad.
