Care Homes Owned by RDCP Care in Derbyshire

My Mum has only been in Pinxton Manor for a couple of months but the care she has received is second to none. I felt really guilty putting my mum in a home but she was no longer able to cope at home and was becoming a danger to herself. Due to the care, kindness and friendliness of all the staff at Pinxton Manor she is now eating well and has settled in really well. I can now rest knowing that she is safe and well looked after. When I visit the staff are very welcoming and keep me updated with everything. I would have no hesitation in recommending Pinxton Manor

As a rapidly declining dementia sufferer it was decided Mum could no longer live independently at her home alone due to the round the clock safeguarding she needed. Pinxton Manor had a couple of spare rooms for us to view and choose for Mum which was really nice as it was important that Mum was in a lovely, bright and sunny room with a view of the garden which is her happy place. Upon arrival Mum just wanted to go home instantly and didn't take her coat off for about 6hrs. It was the hardest thing for me to do and broke me doing it and I left thinking Mum would never settle. But due to the fabulous, understanding, caring and very patient staff, Mum began to settle so much quicker than we ever thought she would which gave us huge relief. Over the last 4 months, I've seen Mum smile, laugh and chat constantly, as I've never seen her before, thoroughly loves her meals and dances at every opportunity when music is on. The best move ever for Mum and I can't thank Pinxton Manor Staff enough

My mum was a resident at Pinxton Manor for 4 and a half years. It was difficult for us in the beginning, coming to terms with someone else taking care of our lovely mum. But she settled well and the staff became her new best friends. During her stay she was well cared for and always seem happy and content whenever we visited her. She loved a laugh and a cheeky joke and they all engaged with her during those times. She enjoyed the singing and music related activities and even when she could no longer fully participate there was always a lovely smile on her face. She was able to get her hair and nails done regularly which she loved. ALL of the staff are extremely welcoming as soon as you walk in the door. Sadly mum passed away here last month , the staff were so considerate and empathetic during a difficult week and we cant thank them enough. In fact as our dad now needs care also, we have decided that Pinxton Manor is the best place for him too. Its early days but he has settled well x

But she had a fall and broke her hip and couldn't get about anymore, the staff were always there supporting her. Unfortunately mum passed in November and the staff were fabulous and supportive to me and my family.. Thankyou to everyone that work in the carehome you made my mum feel so content and part of your lovely home.. X

Very happy with the care given towards my mother. She has been a resident there since 2022. The staff are always attentive, kind and caring. My mum had been previously cared for at home, but her illness resulted in a bedroom existence. She has now become much happier and made many friends. The activities provided, especially crafts and singing, are among her favourites. I wish to thank the entire team at Pinxton Manor for improving mums quality of life and bringing back her cheeky sparkle. Merry Christmas to you all.

My mum was struggling to cope at home with my dad who had been diagnosed with dementia , so it was decided the best thing for him would be to go in a home for safety as my mum's health was declining , it took him a while to settle , due to him wanting to be at home where he was used to and being constantly with my mum in a familiar place , it was a huge change for him , but he knows going home is not an option for him now and has settled , the staff are so good , attending to his needs , they are very patient and understanding, keep him occupied with activities , he's kept smart and clean which is what my dad has always been , his room is cosy and clean , I have no problem putting any of my relatives in Pinxton manor , I am very happy with the care they give from the management, nurses , carers , cooks , cleaners and everyone else there , thankyou so much for your dedication to my dad and the love and care you give , not only to him but all the other residents you have in your care x

My Dad moved into Pinxton Manor Oct 2024; from point of assessment everything has been faultless. Every single member of staff treats each resident with dignity and respect and treat them like they are their own family. Nothing is too much trouble for anyone. They do a wide range of activities daily for residents inside the home and occasionally out in the community . Singing for the brain is regular on the activity plan and it is very heart-warming at the reaction of all residents. The personal approach Pinxton Manor staff give to each resident is very special place. Deciding for a loved one to go into a care home is never an easy decision but Pinxton Manor is a very special place and i would never hesitate for a loved one to live there.

mum absolutely loves it. all of the staff treat you like family from the very beginning and are all very courteous. Pinxton Manor as made a very hard decision for us easy and have put our minds at rest. thank you to all

Mum had almost 6 very happy years in Pinxton manor. She formed many friendships with the lovely staff , who all treated her with respect, and genuine affection. Myself and my family were extremely happy with mums care , and since her passing, we feel a massive part of our lives has changed. They were wonderful with her, and we will miss them all. Letting mum go into care was incredibly difficult, but knowing she was safe in their hands was priceless.

There have been a few occasions (generally at the weekend) when I have been kept waiting to be let in but other than that, I think Woodlands nursing home and staff are great.

All the carers are great with my mum. She has started having baths instead of showers and she seems to like them better. She likes trips out and hopefully she will be taken out a little more in the future. They go to garden centres etc. Although my mum has Alzheimer's and doesn't really know me (or anyone) anymore, when I ask if she is ok and happy she does reply 'yes'. If mum is happy then so am I. I special shout out to Katie, Kim, and Paula.

Basically nothing is too much trouble at Pinxton manor which shows me training of all staff is well maintained.

We couldn't have picked a better home for my dad, the staff are all absolutely wonderful and go above and beyond for the residents. Even when he's unwell he still has a smile for some staff members and it's the most beautiful smile that tells us just how happy he is and that we made the right decision even if it was a hard one. The amount of activities they do for both residents and their families is just amazing and it really does help having these social events to be able to talk to others who are experiencing the same. We especially love the Forgetful Me Not Cafe held each month where families get together for coffee, cake and chats and updates on what's going on or upcoming events. My favourite has to be the seaside/summer event where we all get to go and sit in the garden and chat and play games and listen to music. Last year a resident that didn't really talk much and can't get around as well as others sang an old song into the mic of the singer and it brought tears to my eyes.

My husband has only been a resident in Haddon House for a few weeks, but he has settled really well which is credit to the hard working staff. The home is very friendly and welcoming and the residents are well cared for in a safe homely environment. The domestic team work hard to get clothes laundered and back in wardrobes on a daily basis. The activity team are dedicated and work tirelessly focusing on the individual residents' interests. The experienced care staff are always on hand to help with any requests. I feel reassured that my husband is being well looked after.

My Husband has been at Haddon House since March 2022, and I would like thank the staff for the care that he is given, nothing is ever too much trouble.He settled in really well and gets involved with all the activities they have. We has a family can't thank them all enough for the amazing work they do. They have a forget me not cafe once a month where the residents and their families meet up for coffee, cake and a chat. They also have themed restaurant days every few months, where residents family come and have lunch with them, the last one was an Italian themed restaurant. We are so happy there was a vacancy at Haddon house, we couldn't have chosen a better place.

As a family we can't thank the staff enough for all they did.

We would not hesitate in using this care home again & would recommend to anyone wanting genuine care .

Unfortunately my husband had a recent fall resulting in him being admitted to hospital for surgery. The staff dealt with the situation in a professional manner and on his return to Haddon House kept me fully informed regarding any changes to his treatment and care plan, of other healthcare professional's involvement, and his day to day progress with regards to his mobility and general well being. I would have no hesitation in recommending Haddon House as a specialist home caring for people with dementia.

So again, thank you.

Mum passed away and they were there to make sure everything was just right for her and after, they gave me a sympathy card with a pack of forget me not seeds to plant in her memory, so thoughtful.
