Carers look to maintain a good social atmosphere while encouraging residents in the pursuit of an active and fulfilling lifestyle, with all dietary needs met and evening events that relatives and loved ones can join in with.

This is her second respite care visit. I would not take her anywhere else. She loves it here—the company, the care, the stimulation, the food, and her room. I have total confidence in this care placement.

My mother has been in here for 5 and half years. She is 94 years old, still going strong and recovers from all problems with the staff being amazing. I think she would not be here now but with the constant care/work from staff and management keeping her in the way she used to be.

I have never broken a bone in my life and only been in hospital to give birth to my children. I have found this home wonderful. It has the standard of a good hotel. Lovely clean and decorated rooms. All my friends and family are very impressed. The food is excellent with great choice. I think a nursing
home is the quality of the staff and I would say the staff are absolutely excellent. Their care and kindness are the very best possible. They are wonderful and give 100% to everyone. I am grateful to all.

The care and support my dad has received since he became a resident has been nothing short of perfect. He is so loved and cared for, to such an extent I had no hesitation in choosing Sutton Manor for my mum's respite care. I have equally been looked after by all staff and the management whilst navigating
the solutions for my mum's care. All the staff are Angels and are so incredibly empathetic. It's become a second home for me!

The home is warm, clean, comfortable, and well-maintained.
The staff are all friendly and professional and do all they can to help the residents with whatever they need. There is a good range of activities to occupy the residents and help to pass the time.
Thank you to everyone there.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Grandma was taken to Sutton Manor as part of a rehabilitation transfer so to say this was temporary, the staff have been absolutely amazing and we have all been treated like family. The manager has gone above and beyond to make us feel welcome and get the best doctor care, treating my daughter like
a family member. The manager was always there to just talk to and that we were OK. Both the seniors, have been outstanding too. Always keeping me updated on doctors' visits and doing their very best to get information when I couldn't. Nothing was too much to ask, always had time to speak to me when I could not visit. This is the same for another lady too. She comforted me when I was upset. The other care staff have done a fantastic job too. One particular lady always kept her company at night. Another one treated her like her own grandma and always made her laugh. There is a gentleman carer, he always made sure I had a cup of coffee and my daughter a juice. There are lots more staff who have done an amazing job too.

My mum chose to go to Sutton Manor Residential Home in July 2019 after my father was taken very poorly, she needed some respite care. Mum knew that she would have a comfortable bed in her own room, complete with ensuite. All her meals would be prepared and cooked and she had company. She could rest
and recuperate without pressure and and stress. She settled in quickly, making friends, joining in with the activities, felt happy and safe, she had the company she needed during a difficult time. The manager and all the staff were excellent, supportive, attentive and cared for Mum so we, as a family, had no worries about her. We were free to see her and were welcomed as part of the 'family'. Mum decided to remain at the home and has been happy there, which is so important. Although mum has dementia the care still is a priority for the team at the manor.

Review from Kenneth C (Respite Resident) published on 6 August 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Following a leg injury, I spent five weeks here and I was very pleasantly surprised and impressed with the experience. The spacious dining room and huge lounge were made good use of throughout the day by residents of all abilities. A good many dementia patients, some very difficult to handle were treated
with much patience and affection. I saw only rare occasions when a staff member showed annoyance, even when struck or shouted at. Given the varying abilities of patients/residents, it is difficult to offer entertainment but groups are got together to play simple sports games (seated in a row) or flower arranging etc. Visiting specialists help too and the SA come each month to organise a hymn sing-song.
Food is plentiful, and flexibly timed around noon and five pm. Breakfast is provided as soon as a resident arrives. Drink rounds are surprisingly frequent and offer extras such as a milky drink, hot chocolate and biscuits on demand. Hygiene is emphasised and washing is returned on the next day.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father, who suffers from dementia, has been a resident at this home since December 2023.He is now a lot happier than when he went in, eating better, drinking better, happier within himself and smiling virtually all the time. It is a pleasure to visit him, as I can see the positive difference in him.
The staff care for him and always comment on how nice he is. The manager is fantastic and she really cares for him, recently on a day trip, she decided that he would be cared for by her, how wonderful. In the last few weeks he has been on two trips out, one to Skegness at least two hours drive away and the other a trip down the River at Newark, so they chartered a boat. They bring in outside professionals to entertain the residents and invite the Salvation Army to attend as well, which again makes him happy as he was a regular attendee of the local Army Corps. They always report any falls to the Social Services, CQC and the family. A fantastic home, I couldn't ask for more.

Wow, what a fantastic review. Thank you so much, I shall pass this praise on to the Sutton Manor team who will be thrilled. We are all very glad your Dad is thriving at Sutton Manor.

A very rewarding experience from start to now. I find all members of staff, carers, cooks, any junior or senior staff, whatever work or status, a pleasure to be with.
The care that I have received has been without measure, they have in combination very quickly got me onto my feet and walking. I cannot
thank everyone enough. Thank you all anyway.

My mum has stayed at Sutton Manor for rehabilitation following a fall where initially was at the hospital. The home is exceptional in the constant care they provide. The staff are extremely hardworking and are always cheerful and friendly. Residents were constantly stimulated with a great variety of
activities. The staff would always go above and beyond. The cleanliness of the home was outstanding and the food quality, choices, amounts along with continuous drinks throughout the day was excellent. The home felt very welcoming and comfortable. This home is amazing and is absolutely right to say second to none.

We get such enormous peace of mind from knowing that Mum is so well looked after at Sutton Manor. Every time we visit, we are reassured because the staff members are brilliant and it is clear that she is surrounded by people who genuinely care about her and make every effort to ensure her life is as
comfortable and enjoyable as possible. Nothing seems to be too much trouble for them and they are all so kind and patient.
Since she moved in, I have seen so many photos of my mum smiling and enjoying life at Sutton Manor and it is comforting to know that we made the best decision possible for her at a time when dementia meant that she was no longer able to live independently. From activities and outings to music and other entertainment, there is always plenty happening to bring a smile to the faces of residents.
Thank you for everything you do.

My mum was transferred to Sutton Manor from hospital after her third stroke. We did not know what to expect, but the staff were welcoming and made my mum feel at ease. The staff go above and beyond and I cannot thank them enough for the care they gave my mum whilst she was there. At first, my mum did
not join in with the activities but with encouragement, she started to join in and really enjoyed it. When I visited she would tell me about what she had been up to and what entertainment they had come to the home. The meals were excellent and she was never disappointed. My mum has now moved to Assisted Living and it was a teary goodbye as she did not want to leave, so to get to this from saying I had dumped her is a credit to all the staff and how they take care of everyone. I have no hesitation in highly recommending Sutton Manor and all who work there.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.957)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.957) out of 10 for Sutton Manor Residential Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 45 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 45 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.957 for Sutton Manor Residential Home is calculated as follows: ( (509 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 531 Ratings = 4.957
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Sutton Manor Residential Home is based on 45 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 45 registered maximum number of service users is 9, which has been reached with 45 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
