Manor House

All kind and very helpful in a situation I'm sure is not easy for staff, I find when I pop over from Toronto, which is often, staff are fab.

There has been a change at this home recently. It is now much much better.

The home is lovely. Staff look after residents excellently. My mum came in from hospital with a chest infection and her legs and feet were bad. In the time she has been here she has come on in leaps and bounds. We cannot praise the home enough.

Plenty of activities for the residents in a happy environment. My father comes weekly and thoroughly enjoys himself as well as some respite. A good Christmas party too.

Residents treated with dignity at all times. All members of the staff are friendly and visitors welcomed. I have no hesitation in recommending Manor House.

She was helped to settle in well from all care staff a remained very happy throughout, we can go in at anytime to see her. Staff very welcoming and keep me updated if mum is unwell.

They are also vigilant regarding his health needs and seek medical advise appropriately. I feel confident he is well cared for and safe.

We were not expecting mum to leave hospital as she was so poorly. The care she received during the first few weeks resulted in a remarkable recovery. Mum is very dependent on her caregivers who look after her with dignity and love. You have a wonderful staff.

My mother has been a resident for 5 months and in that time I have been consistently impressed by the care/professionalism and kindness the staff have displayed. My mother is very happy with her room which is always clean and tidy and she tells me the food is very good. Overall very satisfied.

My Mum was extremely well cared for at Manor Lodge over the five years she was there. She was always kept clean and her personal needs seen to. The staff were kind and caring and the manager always answered any questions we had. In my Mum's last days her carers were especially kind to the family. I would definitely recommend Manor Lodge to anyone with a family member with dementia.

The care shown for my mother for the near 2 years she was a resident was second to none. The quality of care was unquestionable, maintained mum’s dignity at all times and where she truly felt at home. The staff were always nothing but helpful with nothing was ever too much trouble keeping mum safe, sound and respected at all times.

Throughout the week there is a great program of activities which always kept mum alert and entertained.

Food and meals are of great quality and cater for all dietary needs.

Christmas is a real celebration at Manor House. From pantomimes to carol singers, decoration making, not to mention Christmas dinner with staff in fancy dress. Couple this with the summer fete and other events throughout the year, create the opportunity for families to play an active part of the home.

I cannot thank the manager and the whole team enough for the care they showed towards mum. The level of care and support was superb and will never be forgotten. Thank you!

Manor Lodge is one of the best care homes I have been to. My dad has been there for 6 months and he settled extremely quickly. The standard of nursing care is high, food very good and an excellent level of contact with staff - they always try to update me on any change in my dad's condition. There are 2 activity co-ordinators employed so residents are entertained regularly. My dad has dementia and there have recently been some behavioural problems which staff have worked hard to resolve.

When my mother-in-law entered the home, I was overwhelmed with the greeting they gave her, lots of hugs and a very friendly start to her final time with us. All staff have worked really well together and have bowed to all her needs. They have kept her comfortable and happy in the time she has here. Can't thank them enough for all they've done, in her last few weeks we had her with us.

Carers take their time with residents who need time to evaluate what is being asked of them.

Due to failing health and a desire to be near to her family, I arranged for my mother to move from a care home in Teesside to Manor House in Blofield in May 2016. I viewed a good number of care homes in the area before selecting Manor House. I have to say that the standard of care my mum received and the dignity with which they supported her (and my elderly father who visited every day) was exemplary. Indeed I cannot thank them enough for the care and attention they gave my mum during her final months. The staff could not be faulted in any way. The manager is a kind, professional and caring lady, she clearly employs a team with similar dedication to the elderly folk in her care... I would have no hesitation in recommending Manor House to friends or family if they need somewhere clean and homely with good food and entertainment and great care to entrust the final years of a loved one.. Well done team Manor House, I am proud to have met you all..

I am very happy with the care my mother received for her year at Manor House. The staff were unfailingly patient, preserving her dignity as far as humanly possible, including the times when she was uncooperative due to dementia. Staff kept me fully informed of any treatment changes. Food provided was good and plentiful. The decor was a bit tired, but the whole place was kept very clean.

Choosing a care home is always difficult, with Manor House, my sister and I feel that we have fallen on our feet. Mum has been in Manor House for seven months now. The care is excellent, the staff are wonderful; nothing is too much trouble and the staff keep us in the loop regarding her care. Mum is very settled there, despite very limited mobility she attends activities – the other week she made cakes; visits the purpose built hair salon and has her nails painted regularly. Manor House is a bright, very well kept home, located in pleasant grounds, which in my view, coupled with the other factors listed, made it the perfect choice.

My father was a resident at Manor Lodge for almost 3 years. Despite his inevitable decline, staff were always very patient, caring and gentle whatever mood my father happened to be in. Staff were exceptionally helpful whenever I visited and the manageress always made time to discuss any issues I had, offer suggestions and was extremely helpful. I was always consulted regarding any changes to medication / treatment. My father's care and comfort always came first. Visitors were welcome at any time.
