I cannot say enough about Orchard Manor. After a lot of worry about my mum, who was unsafe at home, I was relieved and felt she was safe and well taken care of when she moved into Orchard Manor.The GP and nursing staff kept us informed of her care plan, medication and any changes in health and...
More than this, the end of life care was excellent. The staff treated mum with kindness and dignity. They checked on her regularly, made sure she was clean, well positioned and comfortable including throughout the night. I was able to stay with her throughout the last few days even overnight, and staff were so kind to me and my brother and made sure we were alright too.
All the staff clearly had both competence and the right values and really cared about their residents. I am very grateful for all they did for mum and our family

My dad was only at Orchard Manor for the last 2 weeks of his life. The care, attention, dignity and compassion shown to him and my mum was outstanding! It was truly one of the best homes I have experienced, and being an ex CQC inspector, I have seen the good, the bad, and the ugly.

Orchard Manor provided excellent care for our mum. The staff were always genuinely kind, treated her with dignity and as one of the family. Mum settled quickly and was very happy there; nothing was too much trouble for the staff. They arranged regular activities and days out, including VE Day celebrations and a trip to the zoo. We were always made welcome and kept informed, including regular updates of photos for the family. We highly recommend Orchard Manor to families looking for nursing care.

Our daughter died at Orchard Manor in February this year after 21 months of continuous care. She was high dependency and met with excellent care, kindness and consideration consistently over her time there. She had been given a a prognosis from the hospital of 3 to 4 months but began to improve steadily because of the attention she received. Every member of staff plays a part in looking after residents, smiles are freely given, attention is prompt, cleanliness guaranteed, laundry is turned around at speed, food is varied and generous but above all care needs are met with kindness and understanding and nursing is attentive and assiduous. Until her illness began to overcome her my daughter was contented, if she could not be in her own home she could be at home in Orchard Manor. The home is managed efficiently but not officiously, staff have regular input and requests from residents and visitors are usually accommodated. We never regretted choosing Orchard Manor from the start.

The Orchard Manor Care Home gave 'end of life' care to my husband who had spent 5/6 weeks in the local hospital. Whilst he was only at Orchard Manor a short time, nothing was too much trouble for the Home to make him as comfortable as possible. I'm unable to judge the 'Activities' + 'Value for Money' section due to the short time he spent there.

I was devastated to have to put my dear mum in a nursing home - but her needs were so great it became impossible to continue at home.
Right from the start my mum was treated with utmost care and respect.
I don't know how Orchard hired their staff but even their agency staff were always so caring and respectful.
Mum's needs were extensive but were always met with a cheerful face.
In the inevitable last few weeks a member of staff would sit with my mum when I went home and would phone me immediately if she deteriorated.
I thank Orchard Manor with all my heart as I don't know what I would've done without you all.

Dad lived at Orchard Manor for the last 3 months of his life having been discharged from the hospital into their care. We do not live in the area and have not had the opportunity to visit any care homes but had to make a choice quickly. Thankfully we decided on Orchard Manor, it turned out to be...
Right from day one we were regularly updated with Dad's progress. The staff were wonderful, the nursing care was excellent and Dad was extremely well cared for in his final months.
We visited every weekend and were welcomed at each visit, the staff always made time to listen. The nursing staff on the top floor of Maple building felt like part of the family and we knew that when we left Dad each week he would be in safe hands and well cared for. Sadly Dad's illness progressed and he died within 3 months of arriving. We will be forever grateful for the loving, compassionate care given to both Dad and our family by the wonderful staff at Orchard Manor. Thank you from us all.

I am satisfied with the way that my wife is being looked after because she is bedridden and cannot communicate properly. I know the staff have some difficulty but they do a very good job and they are so kind to her and also to me when I visit her. They always make me welcome when I visit.

My mum was transferred to Orchard Manor Care Home from a hospital. She arrived in poor shape. Thanks to good nursing and kind care my mum made a miraculous recovery. I live three hours away so my visits were infrequent but each time I was welcomed regardless of day or time. The strength of this home lies in the quality of its staff from the senior nursing staff right through to the laundry persons. The staff work as a team. Despite the challenges of trying to meet the needs of a range of residents, the staff do so with kindness, respect and humour. Certain staff members stand out as going the extra mile in helping to make residents comfortable and this makes such a difference. I have just transferred Mum to a home near me. If I hadn't felt this to be necessary I would not have moved my mum away from Orchard Manor as I felt she was in safe hands there.
Thank you for your very kind words, we are very proud of our staff and the high-quality care they provide. It was a true pleasure to look after your Mum (she is missed by all at Orchard Manor) we were pleased to be able to support you all with the transfer. Please take care.
