From moment we entered the building we knew this was the right place for our sister. From the management to all the grades of staff, we were all treated with the utmost courtesy and professionalism. No problem was too small for the staff to deal with. Thank you for looking after our sister through an
extremely difficult time.

Merlin Manor look after my mother who has been a resident for a couple of weeks. She is on end-of-life care and we have been welcomed at any time of the day or night. Some of the staff are exceptional, very caring and patient with our family. One problem we have encountered is gaining entry to the building
and at times, leaving, as there are times when there is no one about to open the doors.

Review from Adele D (Daughter of Resident) published on 13 August 2024 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I was so against my mother going into a care home, and was very upset the night before she was transferred from hospital to Merlin Manor. But since she arrived I realised she was in a good place. Every single staff member bent over backwards to help Mam settle in and couldn't have cared for her more.
They gave the same care to myself and my family, constantly asking if we needed anything and if we were alright. We had many hugs and a feeling of genuine care, from everyone from management to housekeeping. Most important has to be included in what was going on and what to expect next. The love and support and attention to care was outstanding and we will never forget.

Nice care home, my mam is well looked after, the care assistants are good, with two of them being the most wonderful carers we have had the pleasure to meet and we are so thankful they have cared for my mam.

We visited an old friend recently after being told they were now living in a care home and from the minute we walked in it was obvious that was the perfect word for it.
All members of staff and management clearly showed that they cared for the people in their charge and were committed to their welfare.
Thank you very much for what you all do daily for all the residents.

My second meeting with the staff. I find all the staff members the most caring people you want to have around when I am not at my best, caring, kind, the very sort of people to have around because nothing is too much for anyone. Very sparkling and the food is all well cooked - yum!

The home is spacious, light, welcoming and has a pleasant atmosphere. Staff are extremely busy, nonstop providing a fantastic service, but I feel they need higher levels of staffing. All staff are good and some outstanding. Dad has settled well. Any issues that have arisen are being/have been addressed.
I can get updates and speak to staff at any time. Dad's room is perfect for his needs and he has his own wet room, both are kept clean and tidy. He enjoys his meals and can eat in his room or the dining room.

After initial problems with some facilities eg not enough cutlery, cups etc. to make a cup of tea or coffee this issue has been resolved. The carers on Mam's floor are approachable, helpful and very professional and caring, especially four of them, always chatty and informative about my mother. Really
appreciated.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother-in-law moved into Merlin Manor at the beginning of March as she required nursing care after leaving a hospice. We had visited a number of homes in the area, and all were unannounced. We were impressed with how welcomed we were made to feel and that our visit was no trouble and were given a
tour. We found the rooms to be bright and spacious which applied to the whole home itself. Mum remained at Merlin Manor until she passed away, we and other family members visited daily at varying times and we were always pleased at how she was being cared for. From the carers, cleaners and nurses; everybody involved in her care treated her with dignity and kindness. Her care and personal needs were met promptly and sensitively. On the morning that she passed, staff stayed with her, holding her hand and remained with her until family arrived. We would not hesitate to recommend Merlin Manor and will always be very grateful to all of the staff who looked after 'Mum' in her final weeks.

My mother was admitted to Merlin Manor for emergency placement over the busy Easter bank holiday. The management team on assessment gave myself and family reassurance and peace of mind that our mam would be taken good care of and in a place of safety. The staff have been amazing, nothing a problem to
them and Mam has settled in really well. Keep up the good work team Merlin.

We cannot thank the staff of Merlin Manor, particularly the Deputy Manager and Manager, enough for the warm welcome and patience with my mother-in-law. In what has been a stressful time for us, the knowledge that she will be safe and well cared for is priceless.
Management have gone above and beyond
to try to accommodate her every need, even going so far as to welcome her cat along with her to try to settle her in. Unfortunately, this did not work, but we are so very grateful to the Deputy Manager for suggesting it in the first place! Your kindness, professionalism and generosity of spirit has been very much appreciated.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.724)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.724) out of 10 for Merlin Manor Care Centre is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 63 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 61 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 4.724 for Merlin Manor Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (568 Excellents x 5) + (135 Goods x 4) + (23 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (3 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 732 Ratings = 4.724
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Merlin Manor Care Centre is based on 61 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 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    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 94 registered maximum number of service users is 18.8, which has been reached with 61 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.

Job Title: Deputy Manager

I left School in 2005 and started Hartlepool College of Further Education, I was studying BTEC 1st Diploma in Caring and then went on to study for the BTEC National Diploma in Health. I started my career at the age of 17, I started working as an Out of Hours Medical Receptionist for Northern Doctors Urgent Care, Whilst I was studying at Teesside University doing Adult Nursing, unfortunately, after 2 years due to ill health, I could not finish my Nursing degree. However, I was awarded with a Higher Education Certificate in Health and Social Care. I then started working for Carewatch as a Carer home care. It was from a very young age that I knew whatever path I chose it would be Care, I always knew that helping others gave me great satisfaction.


I worked at Carewatch for one year. After Carewatch I got the post of Senior Carer at Lindisfarne Care Home, I worked at Lindisfarne for 8 years, I felt I learnt a lot whilst working at Lindisfarne and knew that I had found a job that I love and enjoy, I was always wanting to learn more and climb the ladder, I then went on to study the Level 5 Leadership and Management in Adult Care Diploma and whilst doing so I was offered the Deputy Managers Position at Lindisfarne, I worked as Deputy Manager and Acting Manager June 2021 to February 2022 this was a great achievement for me, I felt all my hard work was finally paying off.


I love working in care and making a difference. In February 2022 I decided to seek other employment and went on to work as a Senior Support Worker with Voyage Care in Hartlepool, I thoroughly enjoyed my role but always felt something was missing. I then applied for the role of Deputy Manager at Merlin Manor Care Centre to which I was successful, I am extremely excited to be working for such an amazing company that strives to provide person-centred care but also supports its staff.


I am looking forward to progressing my career within Prestige and Merlin Manor and feel that I am learning lots of new information, I am extremely grateful that I can make a difference in someone’s life, I believe this is so important and so valuable. I work in care because I care, every day is different, and every day is rewarding.

Job Title: Care Home Manager

I have worked in the care sector for over 35 years and started my path to care as a housekeeper and then felt that I would make a caring care assistant as I enjoyed the interaction I got when I was a housekeeper and always wanted to do more for the residents so that started my journey to care.


I always said that by the time I was 40 years, I would like to be a manager as I was a single parent I could not commit to the job role of a manager until my youngest son left school, and lucky enough I was already a Deputy in a care home in Easington Colliery for 5 years, my son then left school and I then became the manager of Ashwood Park.


I have managed care homes for 25 years now. These have been Nursing homes, Residential homes with Dementia.


Each home has been different but very rewarding and at times challenging.


I have my NVQ level 2,3,4 in care.
RMA
D32/D33 Care assessor.


I feel that I am a professional care home manager with over 25 years of experience in the role of a care home manager and dedicated to continually improving the service provided to the care home that I manage.


I aim to provide and improve care for our residents and facilitate an ideal environment for staff, friends and family too.


I believe in mentoring with purpose and understand that strong working relationships create great teams and produce exceptional results.


I feel my greatest strengths are firstly my strong commitment to providing professional service, and outstanding care.
