  • Stanley Park, Stanley
Stanley Park is a bright, welcoming home, where the skilled and caring team delivers personalised care with dignity and compassion. This includes short-term and permanent residential, nursing and care for people who are living with dementia.

Each bedroom within the County Durham home has en-suite facilities and is well furnished. Many of the bedrooms also benefit from views of the lovely garden, which ground flor rooms have direct access to. The 24-hour nurse call systems offers ultimate peace of mind.

Group and one-to-one activities are tailored to residents’ hobbies and interests, and the lifestyle team also organises visits from entertainers and regular trips out. At Stanley Park, residents tell the team the sort of home they want, and the team makes it happen.

My mother was in this care home for over 8 years and I cannot think of a better place for her to have been looked after.
All the staff both past and present showed true professionalism irrespective of their tasks.

Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
The only TV lounge with noisy disruptive residents, shouting, squealing and banking. His bedroom is bare because ornaments and possessions go missing or get trashed. His new TC set after seven months and the screen is cracked. His bedding isn't changed regularly/for six weeks and even when soiled, he
is prescribed two Tena pants by his GP but he is not given them by carers. On three occasions when visiting, he was still in his pyjamas at 2 pm, afternoon. So have to wash and dress him myself. I am 85 years (no towels in room). I have seen other residents wearing his clothes, and I can't afford to provide other people with clothes/need locks on wardrobes.

The staff are amazing and do everything they can to look after my nanna. We know it’s a very busy home but nothing is too much trouble. My family have never had a problem with my nanna being well cared for and she looks so much better than when she was at home alone.
The home is spotless and Nanna
says she really enjoys her meals and has even put weight on.

The staff are very approachable. Residents are treated with dignity and respect. Relative opinions are listened to - suggestions in the main are implemented, but reminders are needed on a regular basis of routine/personal hygiene requirements! Feel confident that staff are caring. It would be nice if
residents received support and encouragement to be involved in routine "household" tasks, dusting and making a snack or drink. Staff are excellent at communicating any concerns and allaying our anxieties in the event of any falls etc. 100% confidence in them keeping residents safe.

We are delighted to hear that your experience of care at Stanley Park is a positive one. As part of our person-centred approach, our activities are arranged around residents’ preferences and, where requested, this can include day-to-day routine tasks that help to provide a purpose. All residents receive regular and appropriate support with personal care; however, we will raise your concerns with the team leader.

The appearance from entering the car park to reception is bright, always clean, tidy and welcoming. This carries on throughout all the corridors, TV room, day room and internal gardens of the home - all very spacious. Staff are always friendly, helpful and reassuring. A feeling of contentment that my

Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
My review concerns the first floor only.
I have often found my sister in a very dishevelled state, hair unbrushed, after lunch covered in crumbs, food around her mouth, hands dirty - she has difficulty feeding herself, hence the mess. She has no stimulation, and little intervention, which concerns
me, but I have great respect for the carers on that floor; they are greatly overworked.

Thank you for your review, all feedback is important to us at Stanley Park. I understand that you have since met with our Clinical Lead/Deputy Manager and you are happy with the response and outcomes of that meeting. If you have any future concerns, please don’t hesitate to speak to the home management team, our door is always open. Our aim is always to provide the best care for each of the residents at Stanley Park.

The staff are so courteous, friendly, helpful and kind. Nothing has been too much trouble for them. They go the extra mile and always insist that my mam can ask for anything, and they will always try to oblige. Her room and toilet are always spotlessly clean. Her clothes are beautifully washed and ironed.
The gardens are a delight; so much effort has been put into making them beautiful. My mam has also had very good medical care when it has been necessary for her to see a nurse.

My mam has been a resident at Stanley Park for 6 and a half years. Making the decision to put mam into the care home was a difficult one to make but made instantly easier knowing the care and dedication the carers put into their residents. I am at total ease knowing my mam is well cared for and looked
after to their utmost ability and would have no obligation in recommending Stanley Park to a friend.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father originally came to Stanley Park for respite back in March and was made a permanent resident in July. We couldn't be happier with this decision. My mother passed away last year and my father couldn't cope at home. All of the staff instantly made my father feel at home. They all work as a team
and go out of their way for their residents. We were impressed from our first visit where we spoke to several staff, including the duty manager and the head housekeeper. We have not been disappointed since then.
My father has since been diagnosed with vascular dementia but all the staff have been extremely supportive. We are always kept up to date with any changes in my father's condition. The rooms and communal areas are always kept immaculate and the food is excellent. We have eaten there with my father and were accommodated in a private dining room. Finally the entertainment is outstanding. They always have something on. We couldn't recommend this place more highly.

I am delighted with the care shown to my father at Stanley Park. The staff create a lovely atmosphere and do their best to engage with all the residents. I feel that they know my father well and take an interest in his well being, noticing any changes in mood. I'm kept well informed and management and
staff are extremely approachable. It's clear to me that everyone cares a great deal about their residents. The facility itself is homely and well cared for - the only downside is the garden area, which is nice, but not sufficiently accessible for residents.
Reply from Samantha Debenham, Personal Assistant at Stanley Park

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review for Stanley Park. We are very happy to read your positive comments about the care and attention your father receives. Getting to know the residents well and understanding their feelings and moods is an important part of our approach at Stanley Park, it is what every member of the care team is passionate about and so your remarks mean a lot to us. We want residents to enjoy the garden areas but it is important that our outdoor spaces are secure, which is why we have a safety system in place.

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.184)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.184) out of 10 for Stanley Park is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.4 out of 5 from 7 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 4.821 for Stanley Park is calculated as follows: ( (96 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 106 Ratings = 4.821
  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 4.363 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Stanley Park is based on 7 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 = 3.7
    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 71 registered maximum number of service users is 14.2. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 14.2 = 0.493
  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.

Andrew Astin-Rae

Job Title: Home Manager

I served in the Scots Guards for 25 years before moving into adult social care. My military background gave me strong leadership skills and a calm, adaptable approach, which I now use every day to support residents and colleagues at Stanley Park.


Before joining Care UK, I worked as a Home Manager and was drawn here because of the organisation’s strong values and reputation for delivering person-centred care. I believe the most important part of my role is being supportive and understanding, ensuring good communication and teamwork throughout the home.


I would describe myself as flexible and patient. It’s important to me to make time to connect with both residents and colleagues. My favourite part of the day is sharing a laugh or a fun moment with the people around me. Seeing residents happy and enjoying themselves makes me incredibly proud.


One of the highlights of my earlier career was taking part in the Queen’s Birthday Parade and seeing different parts of the world through my military service.


Outside of work, I enjoy fishing and camping.
