My wife is a patient at Moorhouse Care Home as she has vascular dementia she thinks it's a hospital. She is amazed that when we visit, there is no restriction on numbers for time to stay. She thinks the staff are all friendly and helpful. She enjoyed the entertainment provided. My impression of the
home was that it was well-cleaned and maintained. The staff and management were friendly and helpful.

Reply from Alison Daly, Manager at Moorhouse Care Home

Thank you for your lovely review; it is much appreciated, and I will share it with the team. We are aware of what a challenging and emotional time it can be for families and residents when they are choosing a care home for their loved ones. We ensure we support our new residents and our new families through this transition. We often find that our new residents settle very quickly and are enjoying the wide range of activities, the home-cooked food and choice of menu, the company and the homely feel of Moorhouse. We understand that our visiting at any time, and the inclusion of our families grow the Moorhouse family to give everyone peace of mind and a sense of well-being. Many thanks again.

The building is very welcoming and has a 'guest house' feel about it. Staff are all extremely pleasant and friendly. Many of the staff have been there since Mum arrived, which is comforting to know as it makes it more familiar for her with her severe dementia. The grounds are very well maintained and
give the residents pleasure on pleasant days. I would have no hesitation in recommending Moorhouse.

Reply from Alison Daly, Manager at Moorhouse Care Home

Hello, thank you very much for your review. The team are very committed to providing the best person-centred care they possibly can, by really getting to know our residents they can encourage and initiate conversations and can prompt past memories and bring back happy times and experiences. The team have had many types of dementia training, we are collaborating with many companies and we continue to seek new training to improve our skillset. We are focused on improving ourselves individually and as a team. We have recently bought new garden furniture and the residents love sitting out when the weather permits it. They have also planted seeds that are growing in our greenhouse, waiting to be planted out. Many thanks.

Mum never wanted to go into a care home but found the care she received was amazing and was happy with her time with you and the family were always made to feel very welcome. She loved being able to look out of the window and watch the world go by.

Reply from Alison Daly, Manager at Moorhouse Care Home

Hello, Thank you for your kind words, it is always appreciated by the team. We all work to ensure our residents have a meaningful life and that all of their family and visitors are part of the extended Moorhouse family. We understand how difficult it can be for our residents, and their families, when they require 24-hour care and to move into a care home. We hope at Moorhouse we support our residents and families through this challenging time with compassion and empathy. We feel at Moorhouse that getting to know our residents and understanding the life they have lived and the life they wish to live now is fundamental in enabling us to provide the best possible care. We are always looking to improve ourselves and feel every day is a school day for us as we constantly learn something new about our residents and the team. Thank you again for your feedback. Kind regards.

Hello, thank you for your review. We are always happy to receive feedback, and share it with the team. We now have a stable and committed team at Moorhouse. Many work 12-hour shifts and start the day smiling and at the end of the day still have big smiles on their faces. I frequently walk around Moorhouse and see the staff dancing and singing with residents, walking around the garden or sitting and talking with our residents. We deliver person-centred care with meaning, and recognise that the little things can make someone's day. We will continue to learn and grow as a team and really appreciate the support we receive from our residents' families. Many thanks again. Kind regards.

My mother has been at Moorhouse for just over a year now and she has always been very happy there. We have seen different managers and staff over the last year and have had a few issues in the past, but I must say the team that are now at Moorhouse seem to be really working together, this can most
certainly be seen in the morale of the staff which reflects on the residents. Activities became excellent and I hope all her fantastic work will continue. Thank you Moorhouse.

Reply from Alison Daly, Manager at Moorhouse Care Home

Hello, thank you very much for your comments. We have worked really hard in the past year to get a caring and compassionate team, which we have. The home is cheerful and friendly at any time of the day or night. The team have taken on new training and continue to grow in their knowledge and skillset, which in turn constantly improves their performance. Many of the staff go the extra mile and bring small gifts for residents, and escort them on their days off work. They are all committed to ensuring our residents live a meaningful life at Moorhouse. Our activities are constantly changing and growing. At present our residents are enjoying time in the garden and have planted fruit trees and seeds for our extensive flower borders. We even had Zumba on the terrace on Friday, which they all enjoyed. We will continue to improve and are proud of our achievements. Thank you again for your support. Kind regards.

My aunt has been at Moorhouse for 18 months. The family is very happy with the standard of care provided. Most importantly, my aunt is very happy too. She looks a great deal healthier than when she was living in her own home assisted by carers. The food is good and there are plenty of activities for
my aunt to participate in, if she wants to. The carers seem excellent to me.

Reply from Alison Daly, Manager at Moorhouse Care Home

Thank you very much for the review. The team always appreciate feedback on their commitment and standard of care in all departments of the home. We work hard to ensure all of our residents' needs are met, even when those needs may change daily. We put the residents in the heart of our decision-making at Moorhouse, and encourage all residents to lead an active life, supported by the team. Our chefs make homemade meals, snacks and offer a wide choice through the day and night, the cakes and puddings are second to none! We ask the residents' preferences and choices daily, and the chef frequently gets tips from our residents on how to make a good cottage pie (each resident has a secret recipe!). Thank you again from all the team at Moorhouse.

Having researched many homes in the area we are delighted we chose Moorhouse. From our first meeting with management to experiencing the care and attention from the nurses, the friendly housekeeping staff and great help from maintenance when we needed help, we cannot fault Moorhouse. What particularly
stands out is the understanding of the individual needs with dementia patients. Dignity is respected. Compliments to the chefs! Thank you.

Mum went to Moorhouse Nursing Home straight from hospital. it was not something she wanted and was very reluctant to engage with anything on offer and stayed in her room. over a relatively short period of time, she went downstairs for both meals and activities due to the encouragement and engagement
of the staff
Staff have got to know Mum and her needs and ways really quickly and she actively engages with them and chats away happily. when her newfound friend recently passed away, staff recognised Mum's distress and were really empathetic to her.
her medical needs are monitored well and when action is needed it is dealt with quickly.
The manager at Moorhouse is both friendly and approachable. She makes herself readily available in person and responds quickly to emails
overall I am really impressed with Moorhouse and feel Mum is safe, and really well looked after. Thank you to the manager and the entire team

Reply from Alison Daly, Manager at Moorhouse Care Home

Hello,
Thank you very much for the lovely feedback. I will be sure to share it with the team.
We are still a new team, however, work with the same goals and in the same direction.
The team in Moorhouse work with kindness and compassion, understanding what a difficult time it can be for families and for our residents when the time comes that they need to move into a care home.
We hope to support our families and our residents to live a life with meaning in a friendly and homely environment.

My mother moved into Moorhouse Nursing Home at the beginning of September as she wasn't safe living alone at home. The staff have been unfailingly kind and helpful to Mum and to my sister and myself as we struggled with making such a change. It was made easier by expert support and the support of such
a great team. Mum has more interaction with people and activities and is brighter than she has been for years. It really feels like a home from home.

Reply from Alison Daly, Manager at Moorhouse Care Home

Thank you so much for your kind words. I will be sure to print and share the review with the team.
All departments of the home work with compassion and kindness. I often hear the chef asking residents what he can cook for them, I hear the housekeeping team discussing photos and reminiscing with residents as they clean their rooms. It takes all departments to create a real home for our residents, not only our supportive and friendly care team.
Thank you again on behalf of all the staff at Moorhouse.

My mum had a fall and went to hospital. She was assessed and it was decided she was not safe to move back into the community. Moorhouse Nursing Home was brilliant. We managed to move Mum into one of their garden rooms. All the staff were kind and helpful and we can visit Mum whenever we like. The food
is delicious and Mum has the freedom to walk around as she wishes and go into the garden whenever she wants. The staff are very patient with her. It is a huge relief to all the family that she is safe and being well cared for.

Thank you so much for the review. We continue to work together to create a home that promotes everyone's individual wishes and offers a place that can encourage a resident's interests to be full filled. We welcome families at any time of night or day as all families are an extension of our residents.
We appreciate our relationships and input from our resident's families. We put our resident's wishes at the heart of our decision-making, and know the importance of supporting family relationships and will continue to create a home from home for our residents and their loved ones.

My mum arrived at Moorhouse Nursing Home directly from hospital just before Christmas 2022. Within a few days, her overall well-being had transformed and she was looking so much brighter and more talkative. Her mobility has increased significantly since being at Moorhouse, I’m pleased to see her recovery
and that she is well supervised by the staff. My mum enjoys the food, especially the cake! It’s also good to see her interacting with the other residents and taking part in activities when she can. The staff at all levels are always welcoming, friendly and helpful. Moorhouse has a country house feel and it’s good to see improvements and renovations taking place. I enjoy visiting and my mum and I have often been given space and time to sit together and do activities. I’m really pleased that my dog can visit too. Whilst there will always be good and bad days with my mum’s Alzheimer’s I feel confident the staff at Moorhouse can provide the best care for her increased needs.

My dad has come into Moorhouse straight from hospital.
He has had amazing care since he arrived.
He is in a freshly painted room with new furniture and the home arranged for his chair and TV to be picked up and put in his room so he feels right at home.
I cannot fault the care he is receiving.
Nothing is ever too much trouble, my dad is on a pureed diet which is all done separately, and when he is fed the staff are so patient with him. All the staff are attentive and friendly and we get coffee and cake when we visit.
My dad is always clean and shaven and his washing is all done and returned freshly ironed and hung in his wardrobe even though my dad is bedbound.

What a poor excuse for a nursing home. My mother was persuaded to go to this nursing home after consulting with Social Services. Prior to moving to Moorhouse Nursing Home, all she got to see were images and a brochure. She found the food poor, activities for the residents did not exist although listed
and exhorted on Moorhouse Nursing Home's website, management appeared poor and leaderless, and there appeared to be a lack of permanent staff with many agency staff filling the gaps. When I moved my mother from this place I took images of the filth on her floor which included dried faeces. I can not see how this home scores so highly. The whole place looked tired and underfunded although they charge a small fortune to live there. Not recommended in any way shape or form.

Reply from Denise Fitzpatrick, Registered Home Manager at Moorhouse Care Home

I was disappointed to read your review and I am sorry you have had a negative experience with our home. We take pride in the care and support we provide to residents and aim to keep a clean, comfortable and pleasant place to live.
I would also like to reassure you that we take cleanliness very seriously. Audits are in place to monitor all aspects of our home including standards of sanitation. Our housekeeping team clean rooms daily so it is disappointing it was not the case for your mother. Since your mother left the home in July, we have had a change in management at the home, with myself joining as Home Manager, and an extensive programme of refurbishments has commenced. Recruitment within social care is challenging, at times we have no alternative but to use agency staff to ensure the correct level of care is given to all our residents. I am sorry you feel that the home did not meet your expectations and I am happy to discuss it with you in person if you would like to contact me.

My brother has been a resident at Moorhouse for only one month but I am both sure and confident that his needs are being met by the caring staff there. My brother has, for many years, been very disabled following brain and much physical damage from a road traffic accident, so he is completely dependent
on insightful care, and food management. This has been delivered by the experienced and patient carers at Moorhouse, witnessed by my wife and myself on several visits per week during this settling in period without prior notice. Visiting is encouraged and always welcomed. I am very pleased with the high standards I have observed at Moorhouse.

We could not have asked for better care and help with my father from all the staff at Moorhouse. I am an activities assistant in another local residential home and was very impressed with everything they did for him. My father was suffering with dementia, Alzheimer’s and cancer so needed a lot of care
and attention which he received. The home had a very cosy, caring and friendly atmosphere and the staff were always available to talk, advise and comfort my family. Fabulous place.

    • 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 38 registered maximum number of service users is 7.6, which has been reached with 30 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • 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.

Julie Watts

Job Title: Manager

Joined: 2024

With nearly four decades in care, I began my journey as a carer and have since progressed through roles in home management, regional management, and quality direction. My experience also includes consulting for care homes, offering support in upholding high standards. Ultimately, I discovered my true passion lies in home management, and I’m thrilled to lead the team at Moorhouse Care Home. The Moorhouse care team is outstanding, wholly dedicated to delivering exceptional, person-centred care. It’s a privilege to support our residents and lead such a committed staff each day.

Job Title: Laundry Attendant

I have worked at Moorhouse for 24 years and could not think of a better place to work. I’ve had various roles within the home but now spend my time ensuring all the laundry is fresh and clean. I love talking and seeing the residents every day – I like to put a smile on their faces and make them laugh. The home has a great atmosphere, we are one happy family.
