Excellent care in every way. The staff are most attentive and kind. My mother is safe and secure and is very appreciative of all that the staff do for her. Thank you all.

As a family, we cannot praise the care that my father received from all staff at Ponteland Manor. Although he was only resident for a very short time the care and consideration for his well being and dignity was outstanding. This was evident from the fact that he settled into The Manor immediately...
We recommend The Manor 100%.
My mother is extremely well cared for by all the staff at Ponteland Manor. Her 4 children (8 grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren!) visit her regularly and are always pleased to see how happy and safe she feels.

A well run home. Management very good. The great majority of staff are well motivated, skilled and caring. At the end of my Mum's life, she was looked after very well.

As he falls great care is taken of him. His bed is lowered when he lies down and a mattress is placed on the floor in case he rolls out if he tries to get up. A hoist is used to put him into and out of bed, change positions from an easy chair to a wheelchair and for his toilet needs. If he isn't...
As he falls great care is taken of him. His bed is lowered when he lies down and a mattress is placed on the floor in case he rolls out if he tries to get up. A hoist is used to put him into and out of bed, change positions from an easy chair to a wheelchair and for his toilet needs. If he isn't considered fit enough meals are brought to his room. He is a messy eater and his clothes are kept clean and changed often. He would like to be able to get up and walk. There is a person who comes in to give him leg exercises, perhaps that will help him to manage a few steps.
I have spent 2 weeks here and enjoyed it very much. If I should have to come into a home again I will certainly come into Ponteland Manor.

I have been closely involved with this home since March 1999, firstly with three close relatives and latterly as a regular visitor and committee member. I have always found the level of care and nursing exemplary but wish there wasn't such a turnover of staff. Food has improved over the years. The activities officer is the best and most proactive we have ever had.

Our parents were taken into Ponteland Manor for respite care. Sadly our mum died in March, dad is still happily occupying his room. Every care and consideration was given to them when they went in, rooms together and every attempt to ensure they were still together and not separated. The care at the end of mum's life was exemplary; the staff were supportive and really caring with all the family. Dad is well looked after and we do not have to worry - the staff are fantastic and ensure we are happy with his care and are keen to hear our views. A fantastic care home with wonderful staff. Thank you.

The home is very friendly and welcoming atmosphere. The carers are so helpful and willing to assist my aunt in every way. The home is extremely clean and smells fresh at all times. My aunty really enjoys the food and the entertainment that is provided. She is very happy now and loves having a proper bath/shower and having her hair washed and blow dried which she hasn't done for years!

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.
