Overall we found Mum's care was good particularly with a couple of staff members.

I have found the Shipdham Manor care home to be an excellent choice. My wife spent the last 2 1/2 years living there and I believe she was as happy as she could possibly be whilst suffering with dementia which she has had for over 5 years in total. The family atmosphere which is encouraged at the home was largely responsible for my wife's relative happiness and I appreciated the care and support for both my wife and I have always received. I have always been made very welcome on my many visits. I would and regularly recommend the home to everyone I know and meet.
Thank you for your kind words, we pride ourselves in making a homely atmosphere to help everyone feel safe and relaxed. We are here to support loved ones as well as individuals in our care, we are one big family.

Must say they also kept a close eye on her husband. They were very accommodating in supporting him to watch the funeral online as he could not attend. My grandad continues to stay at Shipdham Manor. I can't dream of him being anywhere else.
Thank you for your very kind review. Nan was a big character here, and we miss her cheeky ways. We continue to support Grandad on this journey he is going through. Thank you.

We always feel very welcome to visit and I like how the staff know who I am and talk about my mum with fondness.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. Your mum is such a big character here and has a good relationship with a lot of the staff.
Shipdham Manor is mainly a dementia home, so my friend found it noisy and residents kept coming into her room. The staff were excellent but trained more for dementia residents. The food was good. The internal decorations could do with some paint and TLC.

Thank you for your kind review. Majority of our residents do have dementia and we have put measures in place to make sure all residents have their own privacy and space. We have a process in place and currently working on our inside decorations. I do apologise for the late response I was having difficulty with my account. I hope you are well.
