Formby Manor Care Home

My dad moved to Formby Manor one year ago and is happy and settled. It's a very homely environment and there is a happy, friendly atmosphere throughout the home. The facilities are of a high standard and there is a wide range of food choices to keep everyone satisfied. Lots of activities, films, outings, games to keep everyone entertained. Formby Manor is an exceptional place due to the quality of the care provided. Everyone is committed to looking after the residents, making sure they are happy. All of the staff are very supportive of each other and the residents families. The Nursing team are first class and respond very quickly to dads changing health needs. Dad has great carers who know him well and importantly there is a strong continuity of care. I know dad is happy and in a safe environment.

My beloved dad moved into Formby Manor not long ago. As a family we were anxious and nervous about this new chapter in his life. However, we have found that our worries and concerns were not necessary. The manager reassured us from the very beginning and talked us through the process every step of the way. Her kindness, knowledge and compassion is reflected by her staff and makes the care centre a home away from home for dad. Dad is thriving and loves living in Formby Manor and every time we visit we notice the lovely, warm atmosphere and we go home knowing that he is happy and well looked after. Thank you to all of the staff at Formby Manor Care Centre, we highly recommend them.

The home is excellent the care is exceptional. Holistic care towards all residents. Very compassionate, management is very approachable and can speak to them about anything. Very calming atmosphere. Overall amazing home.

Mum is very happy and content residing in the home and we are more than happy having the knowledge and see in action the caring and considerate treatment given to mum. We are happy knowing she is in a safe and caring environment.

As an anxious daughter, choosing a care home for my mum was a difficult decision, but Formby Manor has been exceptional in guiding us through this process. From the start, the staff have been compassionate, supportive, and understanding, which has been a huge relief.

The rooms are warm and comfortable, and the private, fully en-suite bathrooms have been invaluable in allowing my mum to maintain her privacy and dignity, which was a top priority for us.

What stands out most is how the staff take the time to tailor activities to my mum's interests, ensuring she's engaged and happy. Their personal approach and attention to detail make a real difference, brightening her days and giving us peace of mind.

I truly feel that my mum is in a safe, caring environment where her well-being is a priority. The care she receives at Formby Manor has far exceeded our expectations, and I'm so grateful to know she's in such good hands.

No wifi signal in the home so residents can't have Sky, BT, etc and mobile phones struggle to send videos, pictures and get connection to the internet. We have asked for the last 15 months for our Auntie who loves sport, especially football, can wifi be increased so she can have Sky etc to watch sport. She is paying £5,300 a month! Please think about the residents and not your bank balance.

Having to move my mother into a care home was a very painful decision! I cannot thank enough each and every member of staff for the care and compassion they have all shown towards my lovely mum, my sister and I. Everything at Formby Manor is perfect! It is truly a 5* experience! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to friends or their parents.

Just wanted to say a massive thank you to all the team and the exceptional care that they all give to my uncle. Wonderful management, wonderful nurses and wonderful carers! Only a slight negative this that the internet needs improving. Thank you all.

My sister arrived at Formby Manor Care Centre in mid-February she has no other relatives in the UK. I live in Hawaii. We love the care and attention my sister has received. She has put on weight and loves her meals and the staff. I am happy to leave her in excellent hands.

My dad's observations are medication first class. Rooms are excellent but more plugs are required and a doormat for each room. Three full meals a day is too much. Activities are not suitable for him but an abundance of things on offer. Considering a balanced diet is ideal, more fruit would be great.

My father has been a resident since April 2022 and I have always been pleased with the care he has received. The staff on the second floor are excellent, the facilities are good and there is a wonderful nurse.

My husband has been in the care of Formby Manor Care Centre for the past 18 months, or thereabouts. The care he receives is way beyond what I am able to give him due to medical conditions myself. The staff go above and beyond wherever they are able and I appreciate all they do for my husband.

I could go on but in a nutshell, I cannot recommend Formby Manor enough it really is a ‘Home from Home’.

My mum has been here for almost 18 months and I cannot fault the level of care provided. All staff are caring, compassionate, friendly, approachable and professional. Mum is treated with kindness, dignity and warmth. She is very happy here and loves the staff. The difference it has made to both Mum and myself is immeasurable and I hope all staff, from the manager to the housekeeping, know how much they are appreciated and valued. I would not hesitate to recommend Formby Manor.

Our dad came to Formby Manor Care in September, and all the staff have been so amazing. He could be demanding at times, asking for 1-1 continual attention, yet the staff gave him so much of their time; I cannot thank them enough for their patience and kindness. The place is so beautiful, with views of the garden, hairdressers and canteens, which are 5-star standard. The facilities and rooms/lounges are lovely, with Wifi and streaming sites on the TV, which we used to play his favourite songs. The food looked so nice, and there were lots of activities. He was so lucky to have been placed there for his assessment after a stay in hospital. Special thanks to the fabulous lady who attended him so often and also to the other fantastic staff. A nice touch was the free cake and filter coffee in reception, which kept us going during visits. I would definitely recommend this home as one of the best you'd ever get anywhere.

First meeting was with the new manager who was so reassuring over our concerns with Mum and most importantly, understood the issues we had which put or minds at rest. Second interaction was with a deputy manager who went up and beyond in supporting Mum and our situation. There have been issues along the way however staff have been very accommodating in resolving issues and ensuring no reoccurrence. Waiting for a bed in the correct area for Mum's situation is frustrating however I am confident management will sort as soon as one becomes available.

The only negative is the lack of individual broadband/wi-fi which limits TV options (e.g. online streaming) and direct dial telephone.

My husband has been in Formby Manor Care Centre for a year and the care and attention he has received is second to none. So pleased he is in Formby Manor.

Thoroughly recommended for care of aged relatives.

My friend has been in Formby Manor for over 10 months and has settled in well. All the staff from reception to the manager are very friendly and helpful. I have already recommended Formby Manor to a friend.
