What our families say on carehome.co.uk

"I found this home to have a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The staff: smart, efficient, courteous and seemed happy in their work. High standards of care, hygiene and comfort apparent. The gorgeous 'scottie' dog, an essential member of the team, making it feel so homely. My brother was treated with dignity, humour and always kindness. Staff always went- the extra mile, to make life comfortable or happier. For example, taking the trouble of bringing the phone to my brother to chat with him; keeping a Christmas cake aside until family came after it arrived in the post. Switching football matches on television at the time for an important game. This despite being overworked and under paid for caring for such vulnerable people as my lovely but challenging brother. Thank you all so very much. I would rate this home to be the best on offer in the locality!!"

"When my brother reached the age of 65 he had to leave the home for disabled young people in which he had lived for 40 years. We had a long and depressing search to find a new home for him. Finding Boroughbridge Manor was a great relief. It was the first home we had looked at that had wide corridors and doors, suitable for my brothers electric wheel chair together with a well maintained and accessible garden. The manager at the time could not have been more helpful in settling my brother into his new home. A profile bed with ripple mattress was arranged and his sky television service set up. Boroughbridge Manor has now been my brother's home for two years. During this time the home has been extensively redecorated and the communal areas refurbished giving a bright and open feeling to the home. A new manager has recently been appointed and she could not have been more helpful in dealing with day to day issues relating to my brother's care. We remain very happy with the services provided by the home."

"My wife lives at Boroughbridge Manor and my opinion is the whole place is clean, tidy and my wife is very well looked after. The home has a very friendly homely atmosphere. Many thanks to all staff for their help and the compassion they show towards my wife and everyone else who lives at the home. I would definitely recommend the home to other people."

"My wife has been resident at Boroughbridge Manor for around 8 months now and my son and I (husband) have visited her nearly every week. We have been very impressed to see how well she has been looked after from the beginning. The staff at all levels are so helpful to her, kind and understanding. We could not wish for any better treatment of her. She is improving by having a number of people to talk to and to join in some activities which are well encouraged. We have had lunch with my wife there and lately on Xmas day which was most enjoyable. Overall Boroughbridge Manor together with staff, is a rather impressive establishment."

"I have no other choice but to take my wife to Boroughbridge Manor Care Home because of the severity of her Alzheimer's condition. She would not respond to me feeding, washing and the necessary attentions that I was trying to apply to her. She lost 1 and a half stones in weight and the care home was the only answer. Since her admission to this care home she has gained 4 and a half pounds in 6 days. The staff are absolutely first class. She is cared for by extremely competent and caring staff. She now has showers daily and is given clean clothes every single day. This is an extremely well run care home."

"I find the care of my father is very good. I had to find care for dad on his discharge from hospital and found it very difficult to choose a local care home. The nurses and manager made this much easier to make this decision with their care and understanding I have been very happy with his care and the improvement in his condition since he has been in Boroughbridge Manor. They are all very happy to talk to me and help me with any concerns I may have."

"My parents were both at another home before moving to Boroughbridge Manor to obtain the more specialised care that they had begun to need. The move was organised by the two homes, went very smoothly and they have settled well. I find visiting difficult as it breaks their routine and my father especially is reluctant to engage. The staff are all extremely helpful in trying ways to improve these visits. They are also very kind to me."

"I found Boroughbridge Manor whilst looking at care homes for my friend with double dementia. The home is superb, clean, modern, bright and airy with en-suite shower rooms. The staff have all been amazing especially during the initial settling in period. The transition went really well due to the care, compassion understand and friendliness of the staff. The events and activities laid on everyday help my friend to become a part of the home. No problem is too small to be dealt with immediately. I have nothing but praise for giving my friend the best quality of life she can attain."

"My mother was referred to the home by the hospital. I was not happy that she had been placed in a dementia ward, but that was the only bed available. Glad to say she improved a lot due to the staff's work. Now she has been moved I think in time she will improve even more."

"My mother needed to go into care as her medication stopped working and it was not possible to manage her at home. I was very worried as you hear so many stories of poor care in homes. I can honestly say my mum is receiving superb care. All the staff are so caring, the home is clean and the food is good quality and a good varied diet. My mum is struggling to be in care but the staff are wonderful. I know my mum is being well cared for 5*."

"My husband died on 2nd December 2016 in a hospice after leaving hospital. I was in another hospital at this time after having a fall at home. After the service on 14th December, I came here, Boroughbridge being where I have lived for forty years. I was grateful that I knew I had asked about the Manor. Everyone has been so kind and understanding."

"The care and attention is very good and the rooms are good. It is a very well run home. I have only been here a short while, but the food is not as good as at first, shepherds pie and cottage pie seem to be too often and the teas are very hit and miss. Lacks variety and meat portions very sparse. My first stay in a home so very difficult to compare."

"I am delighted with the level of care at Boroughbridge Manor. The staff are kind and the management is first class. My brother and I are so pleased that our mother, who has complex care needs, is safe, cosy and cared for in this home. We are always welcome on the premises and very much feel as if it is one big family."

"Generally good in all aspects. Could be better in entertainment for some of the residents. Can be boring with no action. Staff are helpful and pleasant. The security of rooms has been and is an unsolved problem, so things go missing, but are generally recovered by staff. More help could be given to getting people out into the garden area when we get suitable weather."

"My Mother was assessed by the team who work at the care home at her home address, they acted quickly on the results of the review. My Mother was allocated a room very quickly and was taken in. The care home is clean and very well run, the staff are always very helpful, and the improvement in the well-being and outlook on life has improved with my Mother. My Mother is very settled in the home, the only issue we have is with the local authority and the funding of the care that my Mother needs. My Mother has Alzheimer's and Vascular Dementia so the Boroughbridge Manor is the correct care home for my Mother's needs."

"As soon as we arrived with mum for her respite care, we were greeted very warmly. This continued all through her stay. We were always offered a drink. The staff always smiled and addressed mum by her Christian name. Every effort was made to make mum's stay pleasant. She was encouraged to join the other residents for lunch etc but if it was not her wish then meals were served in her room. We could not fault the staff as they helped us with care issues for mum and their knowledge of care matters was very encouraging."

"My mum has Frontal Lobe Dementia and when looking for a Care Home it was awful. As soon as I walked into Boroughbridge Manor though, straight away I knew this was the home for her. The manager came out to mum's home to assess her and was so nice and caring and professional during this hard time. It took mum a good few months to adjust to Boroughbridge Manor but the staff were absolutely brilliant! Now, mum has a great relationship with many of the carers there and it's so nice to see. Whenever there has been an issue with mum the home have always called me promptly and been very professional and caring. Mum has been there for over a year now and she went in at aged 57 and I couldn't be happier with her care. Thank you much to everyone who works there, including the cleaners and chefs and of course the carers. I could say so much more but there's not enough room. Thank you!"

"We have been very pleased with the care Mum has received. There have been a couple of occasions when it has seemed that Mum needed her face washing/teeth cleaning etc, but we realise she is not always compliant. It would be nice if staff occasionally checked what was on the TV in the television lounge asked residents if they were really happy with snooker or darts."

"My mother has been a resident at Boroughbridge Manor for five years now, I can't begin to explain how much respect and admiration I have for the staff there, my mother is stimulated and happy. I've seen my mum turn from an anxious and unhappy person when she was still in the family home into jolly, approachable and relaxed person who has a constant smile on her face, she participates in various activities and enjoys a well balanced diet, all whilst being secure and kept in good physical health. Myself and my family could not have offered my mother the stimulation and care she has experienced had she been at home with us. Thank you, thank you, thank you Boroughbridge Manor for everything you do for my mother the resident, for my father when he visits and for myself when I need clear explanation of what is going on. That goes to every single staff member, thank you."

"I arrived at Boroughbridge and there was a little confusion about my booking. The Home Administrator couldn't have been more helpful - immediately sorted and my mum was brought into the garden and the administrator fetched her a blanket. One of the activity coordinators came over and chatted and gave my mum a hug (very genuine) as I know she can't at present hug her own mum. The home and staff have always been excellent to both my mum and us as a family."

"Mum has been in residential care for a year and the care has been very good overall, the care staff have, throughout this challenging time, been friendly and approachable though at times perhaps a little understaffed and not able to spend as much time with Mum or the other residents as we would wish. As with all homes, there are always a few niggles; the odd lost piece of clothing but nothing out of the ordinary and the food is good and flexible to suit which is important. The admin staff are all great, can’t praise them enough, as are the nursing and care staff. The home has been excellent in its dealing with COVID in our minds and experience, including creating a visitors' room that allows face to face communication in a COVID secure manner. The home staff have been diligent in supporting Mum in securing her needs with the local GP and ran an excellent programme of engagement in crafts etc pre-pandemic. So, all in all, we are very happy as is Mum."

"I booked a visit with mum in the Covid 19 safe suite. It was sunny when I arrived, warm and comfortable. The staff brought mum in to her side and we had 30 mins 'together' with a glass screen and intercom. I was pleased to see mum had received a haircut - long overdue but the visit was hard work due to mum's dementia. I feel the visit benefitted me more than mum. She was tidily dressed and clean and engaged with staff well."

My father loves being outdoors and it is good to know that he can wander freely in the secure gardens. The staff are kind and caring. Nothing is too much trouble for them."

"Boroughbridge Manor admitted my Brother-in-Law in difficult circumstances. Their procedures and staff were sensitive and caring throughout. Ever since the staff have continued to provide a level of care which can only be described as exemplary. Regular medical assessments and check ensure that any potential problems are identified early and dealt with. The comfort, happiness and welfare of their residents is always their priority."

"This care home is run in a caring and inclusive manner. The manager's door is always open and welcoming. I would assure anyone that this home isn't only run to a high standard, where the residents are always put first, but communication with relatives is excellent. My mum arrived here unable to walk more than a few sites. Through the encouragement and patience of the staff, she was walking the length of corridors within weeks. Prior to coming to Boroughbridge Manor, she wasn't eating well and had lost weight. Now she is enjoying her food and putting on weight. I cannot praise Boroughbridge Manor highly enough in the short review."

"When you can no longer look after your loved one and a family needs help to do that, you think nowhere will be good enough! How wrong we were. All the staff at Boroughbridge Manor Care Home go above and beyond to care for and support that reason. They give so much more than we could do ourselves or even with a package of care in their own home. Certainly, the best choice we made. But most importantly mum is happy and safe! Thank you"

I am delighted that Mum is being well looked after, and I have no worries in this regard. I can highly recommend this care home."

"My friend suffers from dementia and was frightened and anxious upon her admission. The staff were amazing and brilliant through this transition. We are two weeks post admission and she has completely settled, this is down to the staff who clearly know how to work with residents and issues created through this awful disease.

"After a rapid decline in health and a very traumatic period of time living at home, my mum moved into Boroughbridge Manor care home late last year, from the first day of contact with the wonderful team at the care home I felt so reassured the care and support mum needed would be delivered, and every interaction since has 100% endorsed that early opinion, the wonderful care shown by every member of the team from support staff to nurses to the office team and the manager, the communication in particular on the social media group is great and shows the care and support, the fun and stimulation through activity and interaction is making such a difference to the quality of life all the residents have, it's also so reassuring to see the pictures and the team deserve enormous credit.

Dad has his own appointed carer who closely helps him each day and monitors his progress, as he familiarises to a new 'home' and routines. It is difficult for Dad to accept change at this stage of his life and settling him in can be challenging at times, but all the staff, from manager to activity, catering and maintenance staff, are to be highly commended in welcoming him and helping him to adjust to new surroundings, routines and have encouraged him to join in with the varied activities.

I would assure anyone that this home isn't only run to a high standard, where the residents are always put first, but communication with relatives is excellent. My mum arrived here unable to walk more than a few sites. Through the encouragement and patience of the staff, she was walking the length of corridors within weeks. Prior to coming to Boroughbridge Manor, she wasn't eating well and had lost weight. Now she is enjoying her food and putting on weight.

The manager makes a point of getting to know both residents and relatives. The day my mum arrived, admittedly nervous, the manager came out to meet her carrying her puppy. My mum immediately melted, reached her arms out and took the puppy in her lap. What a wonderful welcome! Unlike another home my mum has had experience with, the residents use and enjoy the facilities on offer. Buzzers get answered quickly and so instead of alarms going off all around you, there's a feeling of calm. The dining room is always beautifully set and I've heard the food is delicious (Mums put weight on, but she really needed to!). She went into this home virtually unable to walk and now, in just six weeks, she's much more stable on her feet. It's such a relief to have found her forever home."

As with all homes, there are always a few niggles; the odd lost piece of clothing but nothing out of the ordinary and the food is good and flexible to suit which is important. The admin staff are all great, can’t praise them enough, as are the nursing and care staff. The home has been excellent in its dealing with COVID in our minds and experience, including creating a visitors' room that allows face to face communication in a COVID secure manner. The home staff have been diligent in supporting Mum in securing her needs with the local GP and ran an excellent programme of engagement in crafts etc pre-pandemic.

"When my brother reached the age of 65 he had to leave the home for disabled young people in which he had lived for 40 years. We had a long and depressing search to find a new home for him. Finding Boroughbridge Manor was a great relief. It was the first home we had looked at that had wide corridors and doors, suitable for my brothers electric wheel chair together with a well maintained and accessible garden. The manager at the time could not have been more helpful in settling my brother into his new home. A profile bed with ripple mattress was arranged and his sky television service set up. Boroughbridge Manor has now been my brother's home for two years. During this time the home has been extensively redecorated and the communal areas refurbished giving a bright and open feeling to the home. A new manager has recently been appointed and she could not have been more helpful in dealing with day to day issues relating to my brother's care.

Since her admission to this care home she has gained 4 and a half pounds in 6 days. The staff are absolutely first class. She is cared for by extremely competent and caring staff. She now has showers daily and is given clean clothes every single day. This is an extremely well run care home."

"I find the care of my father is very good. I had to find care for dad on his discharge from hospital and found it very difficult to choose a local care home. The nurses and manager made this much easier to make this decision with their care and understanding I have been very happy with his care and the improvement in his condition since he has been in Boroughbridge Manor. They are all very happy to talk to me and help me with any concerns I may have."

"My parents were both at another home before moving to Boroughbridge Manor to obtain the more specialised care that they had begun to need. The move was organised by the two homes, went very smoothly and they have settled well. I find visiting difficult as it breaks their routine and my father especially is reluctant to engage. The staff are all extremely helpful in trying ways to improve these visits. They are also very kind to me."

"I found Boroughbridge Manor whilst looking at care homes for my friend with double dementia. The home is superb, clean, modern, bright and airy with en-suite shower rooms. The staff have all been amazing especially during the initial settling in period. The transition went really well due to the care, compassion understand and friendliness of the staff. The events and activities laid on everyday help my friend to become a part of the home. No problem is too small to be dealt with immediately. I have nothing but praise for giving my friend the best quality of life she can attain."

"My mother was referred to the home by the hospital. I was not happy that she had been placed in a dementia ward, but that was the only bed available. Glad to say she improved a lot due to the staff's work. Now she has been moved I think in time she will improve even more."

"My mother needed to go into care as her medication stopped working and it was not possible to manage her at home. I was very worried as you hear so many stories of poor care in homes. I can honestly say my mum is receiving superb care. All the staff are so caring, the home is clean and the food is good quality and a good varied diet. My mum is struggling to be in care but the staff are wonderful. I know my mum is being well cared for 5*."

"My husband died on 2nd December 2016 in a hospice after leaving hospital. I was in another hospital at this time after having a fall at home. After the service on 14th December, I came here, Boroughbridge being where I have lived for forty years. I was grateful that I knew I had asked about the Manor. Everyone has been so kind and understanding."

"The care and attention is very good and the rooms are good. It is a very well run home. I have only been here a short while, but the food is not as good as at first, shepherds pie and cottage pie seem to be too often and the teas are very hit and miss. Lacks variety and meat portions very sparse. My first stay in a home so very difficult to compare."

"I am delighted with the level of care at Boroughbridge Manor. The staff are kind and the management is first class. My brother and I are so pleased that our mother, who has complex care needs, is safe, cosy and cared for in this home. We are always welcome on the premises and very much feel as if it is one big family."

"Generally good in all aspects. Could be better in entertainment for some of the residents. Can be boring with no action. Staff are helpful and pleasant. The security of rooms has been and is an unsolved problem, so things go missing, but are generally recovered by staff. More help could be given to getting people out into the garden area when we get suitable weather."

"My Mother was assessed by the team who work at the care home at her home address, they acted quickly on the results of the review. My Mother was allocated a room very quickly and was taken in. The care home is clean and very well run, the staff are always very helpful, and the improvement in the well-being and outlook on life has improved with my Mother. My Mother is very settled in the home, the only issue we have is with the local authority and the funding of the care that my Mother needs. My Mother has Alzheimer's and Vascular Dementia so the Boroughbridge Manor is the correct care home for my Mother's needs."

"As soon as we arrived with mum for her respite care, we were greeted very warmly. This continued all through her stay. We were always offered a drink. The staff always smiled and addressed mum by her Christian name. Every effort was made to make mum's stay pleasant. She was encouraged to join the other residents for lunch etc but if it was not her wish then meals were served in her room. We could not fault the staff as they helped us with care issues for mum and their knowledge of care matters was very encouraging."

"My mum has Frontal Lobe Dementia and when looking for a Care Home it was awful. As soon as I walked into Boroughbridge Manor though, straight away I knew this was the home for her. The manager came out to mum's home to assess her and was so nice and caring and professional during this hard time. It took mum a good few months to adjust to Boroughbridge Manor but the staff were absolutely brilliant! Now, mum has a great relationship with many of the carers there and it's so nice to see. Whenever there has been an issue with mum the home have always called me promptly and been very professional and caring. Mum has been there for over a year now and she went in at aged 57 and I couldn't be happier with her care. Thank you much to everyone who works there, including the cleaners and chefs and of course the carers. I could say so much more but there's not enough room. Thank you!"

"We have been very pleased with the care Mum has received. There have been a couple of occasions when it has seemed that Mum needed her face washing/teeth cleaning etc, but we realise she is not always compliant. It would be nice if staff occasionally checked what was on the TV in the television lounge asked residents if they were really happy with snooker or darts."

"My mother originally went to the Manor for three weeks of respite care and has now been there for seven weeks. I am very impressed by the staff who are very friendly and patient, with not only my mother but the rest of the residents. I am lucky as I live within walking distance so I visit most days and at different times, so I have met most of the staff. There are lots of activities for mum to enjoy and she has settled in well and is receiving wonderful care, she seems very happy and content."
