Cuffley Manor is like a care hotel (first class). I would be happy to come here when the time is right but more staff would be helpful. I know folk who I have introduced here occasionally but the cost is a worry to them.

I felt safe, had company, lovely room. All the staff were friendly, polite and helpful.
I enjoyed the food, always plenty of choice. I know you can't name people but some staff went beyond the call of duty.
If I needed full-time care, Cuffley Manor would be my choice.
My thanks to all (and I mean
all) the staff.

The staff at Cuffley Manor could not have been more welcoming at what was a very difficult and nerve-wracking transition time. Everyone came to introduce themselves and there were flowers and a welcome card in his room which was a nice touch. This was the second care home I had put my husband in as
the first one was appalling. What a difference at Cuffley Manor! When I left him there I felt for the first time in weeks I could breathe and he was safe and well cared for. Initially, his stay was to be a couple of weeks but I extended this as I knew he was getting good care. All the staff from the Cleaners, Reception, Nursing Staff, Laundry and all Management staff were brilliant and could not have been more helpful and kind. Everyone was always smiling and friendly and it just seemed like a very happy place. There were lots of events laid on and every effort was made to include everyone and get them involved. Standards of care, food and cleanliness were excellent.

My mum stayed at Cuffley Manor for 2 weeks respite, after suffering from a neck injury (crushing discs). During her stay, she got all the care and comfort she could possibly ask for and made an astonishing recovery. The staff were wonderful. We couldn't ask for any more. Mum was kept busy the whole
time with activities and chatting with the other residents. Mum is now deciding whether she would like to become a permanent resident.

Reply from Vicky Bahmed, Manager at Cuffley Manor

Thank you for your kind words, it was an absolute pleasure looking after mum and she is more than welcome to pop in and see us whenever she wants. Kind Regards, Vicky.

After a period in hospital, our mother in her 80's decided to spend a period of recuperation and respite in Cuffley Manor with a view to deciding where she wanted to be in the future. After leaving hospital in a very depressed state, the change in her after a week at Cuffley Manor was incredible, a
complete 100% improvement in her confidence and well being and we were eternally grateful to all the staff both administration and nursing who had brought this about. At the end of her stay, my mother had the choice of remaining where she was or returning to her own assisted care facilities and for the time being she decided that she would return home only in the safe assurance that if she decided that this was no longer suitable for her, she would be warmly welcomed back to Cuffley Manor whenever she wished to return in the future. Our family have nothing but the highest of praise for everyone at Cuffley Manor for everything they have done for her.

Cuffley Manor is well designed, fresh and attractively functional.
It reflects the best of a modern purpose built care home and is well maintained.
The staff are very friendly and attentive and take care of mum's needs unhesitatingly.
Mum does not want to be here and gets bored as she does not take
full advantage of what is offered.
She does, in lighter moments, accept she is well cared for, and although she would not admit it, knows she needs the support.
Cuffley Manor is an expensive care home option which I know puts others off considerably.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.889)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.889) out of 10 for Cuffley Manor is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 69 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 68 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.889 for Cuffley Manor is calculated as follows: ( (734 Excellents x 5) + (70 Goods x 4) + (10 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 814 Ratings = 4.889

  • b) 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Cuffley Manor is based on 68 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 68 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.

Seeing residents’ smiles, taking time to sit and talk with them, sometimes, little things are like milestones, seemingly insignificant, but with a huge impact. That’s what working at Cuffley Manor is for me.

Akshay Sanjai Edathottiyil

Job Title: Business Support Manager

Joined: 2023

I came to the UK to pursue my master's. I started working for TLC as a part-time care assistant in 2021. Though I had never worked in the field of care before, my experience at TLC has piqued my curiosity in it. I was formerly employed in Cherry Hinton, but due to commuting issues, I was transferred to Cuffley Manor. I grew close to the Cuffley people, and I eagerly anticipated working alongside my colleagues each day.
My academics required me to participate in an internship program. I received an offer from TLC to work as an administrator and financial assistant for a year at the Carlton Court Care Home. I was given fresh opportunities for learning and growth while I was at Carlton. I would say that Carlton changed the course of my financial career. I was now offered the amazing chance to return to Cuffley Manor in the capacity of Manager of Finance and HR.
