On my first visit, two things stood out immediately: 1) the friendly and attentive care from all staff, a genuine warmth to both visitors and residents and 2) The high standard of maintenance and attention to the environment and atmosphere. The manager was happy to discuss any and every aspect of the care they provide and has always been warm and professional in their approach. Other family members and friends have visited more frequently than I (as I live and work some distance away) and they echo our appreciation of the high standard of care. Thank you.
At Ponteland Manor Care Home - Care UK we set a high standard for ourselves, so we are very pleased to hear that your experience with us has been a positive one. Thank you for your time, and we look forward to hearing from you.

Our dedicated Lifestyle team organise a full and varied activities schedule each week, working hard to understand residents’ preferences so there is always something for everyone to get involved in, should they wish to do so.

Since I arrived here just over a year ago, the staff have all been very supportive. I found having to ask for help with my personal care difficult, but without exception, the carers assured me that any help I needed would be given. This is my home now and I am very happy here.

I think the manor is a wonderful care home. The staff are so dedicated, nothing is a bother to them. Diet-wise, the chef caters to the resident's choices as best he can. The activities are second to none, always something different for the residents to do, people bringing in dogs for the residents to pat. All kinds of entertainment to suit all tastes are happy with their care. The decor and cleanliness of the home is second to none. The fresh flowers in reception are gorgeous. Matron is very approachable for any information.
I would highly recommend Ponteland Manor. The quality of care is very good. The home is clean and tidy. The manager really cares for all the residents and treats them like family, and is very approachable. All the staff are friendly. There are daily activities to keep residents entertained.

My aunt had spent thirteen years at Ponteland Manor. She needed very little care on arrival but her needs increased with time despite her retaining her fierce independence. She was happy and well looked after. When the end came she was still treated with dignity and their support and compassion for my aunt and for me was outstanding.
Well looked after from the start of care.

My grandmother is so happy here. She has a new family. She loves all of the staff. She says she thinks she's died and gone to heaven, what can I say when she's as happy as this. Thank you so much to all of the staff who make her feel like this.

A comfortable and caring environment where the staff constantly go the extra mile for the resident. The home has a lively, fun atmosphere thanks to some big personalities amongst the staff. My mother feels safe and well cared for an constantly praises the staff for their dedication.

This is a lovely home with exceptional staff who really do seem to care about the residents. It is a very clean home with an excellent kitchen. The home offers residents an excellent range of games and services and a very good range of performers. I really do feel most welcome when I come and visit my mother, with or without my dog.
My father in law was very happy here. He felt safe and cared for. He joined in with activities eventually with encouragement and made friends. All staff were friendly and professional. Always available for support, advice and information. They made his last year enjoyable and comfortable.

I needed somewhere as a matter of extreme urgency for my dear Mum, who was in hospital. We needed a peaceful place for her to die. Management and all staff were exemplary - so very kind, caring and supportive. They totally understood our needs and delivered with true professionalism and complete compassion. Lead beautifully from the helm, right through to the domestic. Wonderful experience. Thank you.

My connection with the care home started in 2011 when my mother and father were admitted. My mother-in-law was also admitted in 2016 during these 8 years I have seen quite a few staff changes but overall the standard of care has been high. Only my mother remains in care and despite the many difficulties, the staff take the time and effort to maintain a high standard of support. I cannot praise them enough.

I have a degree in community health and a leadership management qualification from ILM, as well as a Level 4 in dementia care from Worcester University.
Before joining the care industry, I was the CQC-registered manager as Head of Healthcare at a male prison for 1,400 people, overseeing all aspects of primary care, secondary care and mental health substance misuse services.
I came to work at Care UK after spending a year nursing my father with a terminal illness. He had been in and out of palliative respite care, and I decided that I wanted to explore this as a career where I could give something back.
In my role as Home Manager, it’s important to have empathy and understanding and to be organised, dedicated, empowered and passionate.
My favourite part of any day is my walk around when I go and speak to residents to see how they are and try to make them smile. I am also partial to getting involved in activities with residents. I find it very therapeutic during a busy day.
At the end of the day, ensuring we deliver the best care and making the residents and their families happy, so they are always smiling and all their wishes come to fruition, is the most important part of my role. I feel proud when I see the residents happy and smiling.
I’m a very social person, and outside of work, I love to meet with friends and enjoy meals out. I love a trip to the cinema and am partial to a shopping trip too.
