My brother was admitted to Manley Court from hospital. Despite it being officially out of hours, he was accepted into their care. My initial anxiety about him going into care as a vulnerable adult with dementia and Down Syndrome, who was at the end of his life, was quickly dispelled. The staff were
very caring, and the home itself was clean, and did not smell of urine like others I have visited. He died peacefully and with dignity. Thank you to everyone from nursing to admin and cleaners. Especially the nursing team.

I find all the staff to be helpful and friendly, even on their busiest days. My mother is treated very well, is always clean and tidy.
My mother enjoys all her meals and eats/drinks very well. There are regular activities + events. The unit manager, nurse and all the carers ensure that the family
is kept up to date with our mother's progress at all times. A huge thank you to all the staff.

My sister was put in home in December 2024, from hospital + was given the best of care which has carried on ever since. When I visit at lots of different times she is always clean tidy + her room is the same. All the staff are loving + are always very nice + helpful to me if I need to ask anything.
I wish my sister didn't have to be there but I'm happy for the care she always gets.

It has been a year since my brother-in-law had to move into Manley Court, when he first moved arrived at the care home, he was in a bit of a sorry state, a good few health issues, bed-ridden and confused. One year he is a different person, he looks so much better, healthier, is now able spend time sitting
in a lovely padded adjustable chair, more importantly he is happy, settled and in a safe environment.
I would like to give a big thank your too a particular member of staff and her Team for the patience they have shown him, the great care they have provide, without their help, support understanding he would definitely not look like he does now, today was a prime example, before we arrived her and team who take care of his needs on a day to day basis , had decorated his room with happy birthday banners, presented him with a cake and sang happy birthday, the daily task they have to undertake is not easy and yet they took the time to put a smile on his face well done Manley Court.

I am especially pleased with the attention my cousin was given and surprised at the presence and care taken with the activities the residents were invited to join. My cousin only came here on the 3rd of December 2024 from a care home she has been in for many years. (She has been in care all her life).
She settled so well and quickly. The staff are also careful and the activities are a real surprise. She is really happy to join with the other residents and the caring staff. The food is excellent and a great improvement on what she has been used to. The activities ladies must be complemented on their imagination and ideas.

My Dad stayed here for a period of respite (2 weeks) funded by the local authority. This home appeared to be struggling with staff shortages meaning my dad was left alone a lot of the time. During his stay, he was not supported to wash regularly meaning when he returned home he smelled unclean and looked
unkempt.
The wing Dad was placed in was difficult for him to cope with due to some other residents being very distressed due to their advanced conditions i.e. dementia, which made him frightened and struggled to be left.
My Mum struggled to receive contact from the home to get updates on how Dad was doing. He had better respite elsewhere and would not send him back here for respite or care.

On my visiting days I normally arrive early to help assist with Mum as it makes me feel more connected with her and she with me although she is non-verbal. The staff are very nice at all times even when extremely busy. I am glad I chose this care home as residence for my mother.

We are surprised and impressed with the accommodation at Manley Court Nursing Home, more importantly at the care my brother-in-law is receiving. The staff are brilliant, they undertake unpleasant tasks but still they continue to smile and are extremely patient. Each time we have visited, he's always
well cared for, they even managed to cut his hair and beard, he looked a different person. We mentioned he loved his garden and would spend hours outside, when we went back to visit him, the staff had taken the trouble to move his bed so he could see very clearly into the garden. We came away feeling very reassured he is in safe hands and well cared for.

Our family friend was transferred to Manely Court Care Home last month. Following several visits, I have been very impressed with the friendly, caring staff and the welcoming environment. The rooms are bright and clean and security for the dementia unit is well-controlled. The management have been helpful
and with a lovely personal touch, a birthday cake was made for our friend on his birthday. Now much more reassured regarding his care. Thank you.

Always a friendly and warm welcome! Such lovely staff on the Lavender Unit! Rooms and common areas always clean and tidy. My father is always clean and has a change of clothes. His beard and hair kept tidy. He is usually out of his room in the lounge or at the least sitting in his room out of bed.

Short term respite care for my brother in law straight from hospital. With great care a bespoke package was arranged . His prospective care was assessed and individual needs addressed. The staff showed care and professionalismMarcia was especially outstanding and helped the family tremendously. Even
though my brother in law can demanding and particular he was accommodated. He enjoyed the food and his hot chocolate.
I was able to visit whenever I wanted and able to see how well the home was. I remain grateful that the home helped us so much. And throughly recommend Manley Court.

My sister moved into Manley Court Care Home on the 28/7/23. I visited that afternoon and she was relaxed and already settled in. Her room is large and airy and clean, staff were extremely helpful, a good atmosphere. I visited again today for her birthday and she really is looking so very well, is much
calmer than I've known her in a long time. I'm pleased with everything so far. Thank you.

My mom has been at Manley Court for a few years now and we have been very pleased with the treatment which our mom has received. Her health has improved incredibly and every time we visited, it was obvious she is well looked after. Mummy's relationship with the staff and vice versa means she has found
a home from home. We are very pleased with the care mom receives at Manley Court.

My mum spent her last two and a half years at Manley Court before passing away in November. Although she had dementia she settled in very well, she adored one carer who always called her mama, which my mum loved. When she was in her last days I was made to feel that nothing was too much trouble.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.374)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.374) out of 10 for Manley Court Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 14 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.550 for Manley Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (110 Excellents x 5) + (50 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 171 Ratings = 4.55

  • b) 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 4.824 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Manley Court Care Home is based on 14 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 85 registered maximum number of service users is 17. 14 Positive Reviews ÷ 17 = 0.824

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
