Ferndown Manor

from Sue D (Daughter of Resident) published on 21 October 2025 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Mum was a resident of Ferndown from 31/8/23 - 15/9/25. We chose Ferndown after visiting 13 homes in Dorset & Wales and being impressed with 2 weeks' respite earlier in 2023. Mum became increasingly unwell from July, and it was a huge relief that she could spend the last weeks of her life in her own
room being looked after by people who knew her little quirks. She died peacefully at 57 15/9/25 with me by her side - the staff improvised a bed so I could stay, and her care in those last days was outstanding. Thank you to all the team & front of house for helping us through this hard time.

An absolutely wonderful place, the most caring staff and management . My mother sadly passed away after receiving the best care ever! Her time at the Potteries was a lovely time and her care was second to none. The knowledge of her living in a safe, secure and loving environment have helped the closure
of her life for me in the dealings with the Potteries.
Thank you to everyone single person for their dedication to assisting in the last years of my mothers life!

Visual impairment means that it is very difficult for her to use her mobile - they take her to reception so that she can use a phone there.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I came for my 2-week stay in Ferndown Manor Care Home from July 3rd to July 19th 2025. Surroundings are beautiful, and I loved the garden very much. The caring staff were so good and nothing too much trouble. Exemplary! I appreciated the coffee cake and anything one wanted at all times. Staffing very
good. Activity folk are excellent at all lengths and abilities. The patience of all staff was amazing!! (As I had been in the caring system myself) Food was a little nursery style. Butched and puds very good. Not much fruit, though. Very efficiently served and cleared away. Room was good (room meal time please). Clean at all times. I was able to get around on my 3 wheeler, too. Thank you. 6 stars ******

The Potteries

from Julie V (Niece of Resident) published on 18 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My 2 aunts were at The Potteries together receiving end of life care. I cannot praise the care home enough for the outstanding care dignity and respect both aunts received. Everything was tailored to their needs and nothing was too much trouble. All the staff in their uniforms was nice to see to understand
their roles and all staff were so polite and super friendly. I stayed overnight in a guest room to be with my aunts 24/7 so I saw day & night staff and all were equal in delivering their first class care. The food was very good as well with a choice of "home-cooked" meals everyday and taking them to the cafe for coffee & cake felt like a real treat to them.
I would highly recommend The Potteries Care Home to anyone seeking care for a relative in Poole. Well done to all of you!

As the weeks pass, I have become more and more impressed by The Potteries! All the employees are so welcoming and friendly, always greeting residents by their first name. They are also always smartly dressed (and colour coded too!). The food is interesting, well balanced, and the Help Yourself Cafe
is excellent (particularly now after the new machine has been installed)! Residents' clothes are washed and ironed daily. There is a lovely garden to walk in for exercise. There are daily activities, and the "one-to-ones" are extremely popular. Local musicians visit and are very much appreciated.

My mother has been a resident since April of this year, and I can't praise all the staff enough. They all know her by name and treat her with genuine kindness and respect. She takes part in many of the activities offered, and the activities team clearly put a lot of effort into creating a fun and stimulating
environment for the residents. The home is always clean and really welcoming, and the cakes in the cafe are delicious! I am pleased with the care she receives, and it gives me peace of mind knowing she's in such capable hands.

Thank you for all the incredible care and compassion shown to my friends. All staff, throughout our time in The Potteries went above and beyond with the care delivered. The care for those approaching their final days, and the compassion for family and friends, makes a very difficult situation more bearable.
Thank you especially to the manager and also the kind nurse who was so gentle.

We have been very happy with the service and environment provided by The Potteries. Dad is safe - our primary concern, but also cared for, genuinely, by all the staff, from the nursing staff providing his primary care through to front of house and maintenance. Everyone knows Dad's name and they all
say hello and make the time to engage with him. The activities are also second to none, they're varied and engaging and are keeping his spirits high. I would love to see more 'DIY' type activities for dad - he loved the gentleman's club but it is only once a month. If there was a possibility of more of this, that would be great!

I would have no hesitation in recommending The Potteries for the care of their loved one. Our mum was so happy there, and her last few weeks of life were treated with genuine care and dignity. All levels of staff were outstanding and showed genuine care and support, not only to mum, but also us as a

We have all been very impressed with The Potteries. They have gone out of their way to make sure my father has settled in. They have gone the extra mile to help with his rehabilitation when the NHS hasn't really been able to help him yet due to a lack of resources. All members of staff are very polite
and are always smiling. We couldn't have asked for more.
