Mam has been a resident of Ponteland Manor for 6 month, the care she receives is fantastic, all the staff are very professional and experienced.
I live over 200 mile away and unfortunately can only get up to visit mam every 6-8 weeks, however, I call every morning to see how she is, and always speak
to a senior member of staff which is very reassuring. I check in on Facebook every evening and it is great to see photos & videos of mam getting involved in the varied and well organised activities & games (she still loves her bingo).
I highly recommend Ponteland Manor, it has an extremely friendly atmosphere with first rate carers & nursing staff.

Wanting a short spell of respite care, along with family members we checked several local care homes by reading their brochure or visiting. Having chosen Ponteland Manor. The first thing to impress me was not only by the end of my first day, the staff all knew my name but also had a good idea of my
likes and dislikes. Senior staff were out and about daily, very very approachable, problems were quickly resolved. The fact that after my period of respite care and having seen Ponteland Manor from the inside I converted to resident care is a strong indication of my happyness to be living here.

Myself and my family are delighted with the care my mother is receiving at this care home. She is happy, well cared for and supported in all her needs. She joins in almost all activities and is therefore stimulated. Clinical staff are attentive and ensure that all issues are dealt with promptly and
discussed with me immediately. I highly recommend this place. The manager and key staff are a delight.

Mam has been a resident at Ponteland Manor since Oct 24. She settled well being made very welcome by Manager, all the staff & residents. Just after her move she was diagnosed with Alzheimer's. The staff have all been fantastic with not only Mam but also the family, coming to terms with and understanding
the illness. They have shown such patience and empathy at all times, even when mams illness has proved to be very challenging and difficult., The care staff look after residents as if they were family, it is so reassuring to know your loved ones is being cared for and looked after by a team who truly care. The activities team are also brilliant, they take the time to get to know each resident individually and also their capabilities, encouraging them daily to take part and participate in their extensive daily program. There is a lovely atmosphere, and everyone including senior staff (who are all lovely) make time to chat/update/reassure you when visiting.

My mam has been living at Ponteland Manor for 3 years now & I am happy with the care she receives,it's the little touches that make such a difference , staff making time to stop for a chat or showing an interest in her craftwork.The links to the community are great , even I enjoy the group trips to
the social club where it's nice to meet Mam's friends & have a coffee with them.Because of reduced mobility it's great that mam has access to a brilliant hairdresser & podiatrist.

My mum has been a resident at Ponteland Manor since September 2022. We are absolutely delighted with the outstanding care she receives. The staff are all so very kind, caring, compassionate and respectful. They treat Mum with great dignity and they really do care about her. They are all so professional
and I feel totally confident in her management. Her room is beautiful and she is very happy and comfortable. There are so many wonderful activities that she can join in with and there is always something interesting happening. The home is so well managed and I would recommend it wholeheartedly.

The home is a clean pleasant environment and the residents appear well cared for and content. Individual tooms are attractive and well presented allowing residents to have personal items which provide a link with their home. Activities take place in communal areas so that a sense of purpose exists,
and life is interesting. More important however is that there is excellent staff who display kindness, friendliness and efficiency. The residents despite their varied conditions seem to be making the most of their remaining years. The carers are unfailingly cheerful and helpful. The manager is efficient, hardworking, approachable and thoughtful. Full marks!

I would like to thank the staff at Ponteland Manor for the exemplary care they gave to my stepfather. He was there for five weeks of respite, during which time his behaviour became increasingly challenging. This was managed with extreme compassion and sensitivity by all members of staff and regular,
open and honest communication was maintained with the family. Difficult decisions were required regarding his future care, but the manager and her team were invaluable in assisting with the process and supporting me and my mother. There is a friendly and welcoming feel to the home and the commitment and dedication of the staff is evident everywhere. Thank you!

My mother has been a resident for about 18 months now.
She has become frailer during that time and now prefers to stay in bed. The staff have ensured that she has an appropriate mattress to ensure she is comfortable and negate the risk of bedsores.
She has difficulty eating due to the tremors she
suffers from but does not yet wish to be fed. Staff cut her food up for her but sometimes it is in too large chunks and drier meals are difficult for her, sauces help to make it easier for her to eat things.
In general, staff are very good, as with any organisation some are even better than others at spotting things that are helpful, for example putting her hearing aids in the morning.
Overall, we are very pleased with the care she receives.

Reply from Samantha Debenham, Reviews Team at Ponteland Manor

Parents seem to be settling in well. A few issues are now resolved which is down to parents accepting things and home getting used to their needs. Plenty of activities for them if they wish to attend.
Food is good, Dad particularly likes it.
