View the report"Although our dear dad/grandad was not in the home for very long before he passed away, he was cared for well and felt that he had settled in well. We visited most weekends en masse, daughter, grandchildren, great-granddaughter and our dog whom Dad was immensely fond of and were always made to feel so welcome. We enjoyed having lunch with him and nothing seemed to be too much trouble and staff always greeted us with a smile. Thank you."

"We have found that Cherry Blossom Manor is a very good care home. The carers are all positive and very cheerful and they show respect to the residents. We have spoken to the carers on many occasions, they are very helpful! They often have comforting words when things can be a little stressful and upsetting. They always make time to speak to you. We have also heard that the food is very good! Compliments to the chef!"

"Dad was extremely ill on Christmas Eve and if it was not for the staff that day he would not have made it to the doctor. Well, Dad is still here and receives excellent care from the staff. Two, in particular, are a real credit to the home and I hope they are treated accordingly."

"The care my parents are receiving at this care home is excellent. The staff are approachable and ensure the care and attention is second to none. Their needs are met and any concerns the staff may have are always conveyed to me."

"The care and attention that all members of staff give to my in-laws is second to none. The encouragement to assist and ensure a quality of life from all staff to my mother-in-law has given her confidence to join in and my father-in-law is encouraged to play the piano and enjoy films."

"My stay here I can only judge from my own physical condition at that time. The accommodation was excellent but limited by the abilities of the other occupants. This reduced the moral chance of forming social contact with other people. Very good but very limited choice owing to few people in a similar situation to my own."

"This care home manages my mother's personal needs 24/7 including regular services and nursing. My mother is treated in many kind ways by all the staff and has maintained a good relationship with ourselves in order to cooperate on timing, visits and events. I have encouraged the home to create a musical extension to their regular timetable and help by playing the piano which is appreciated as well. The Christmas Party this year was well organised and the standard of fun exceptional. I have participated in regular events about dementia training. The communication between different layers of staffing could be improved sometimes when my outsider view is challenged but I do not hold this as a severe criticism."

"Every time I visit, the place is always clean and tidy, with the staff looking after all efficiently and they seem caring. Most times when I come, it is the end of lunch, so there is always clearing, helping the last to finish. My mum's room is always clean and tidy, and I am impressed generally with the lack of 'dirty' smells - overall good!"

"I have found the staff friendly and very helpful when needed, especially when I have to change my friend's trousers following a mishap. Couldn't wish for a better place for my friend to be in."

"I can honestly say that I could not have hoped for better care for my dad in his last year of life. The care, companionship and support shown to be given to my dad was beyond my expectations. My appreciation to all the staff that cared for him, cannot be extended enough to show how much it means to me and meant to my dad. Thank you."

"My mother moved to Cherry Blossom Manor 8 weeks ago. I was very impressed with the caring and efficient way in which she was welcomed and integrated into her new surroundings. All the staff are kind and approachable and nothing is too much trouble. Despite her dementia, they have made great efforts to get to know Mum and understand her, her likes and dislikes. The surroundings are all very pleasant and there is a happy atmosphere on Memory Lane."

"Mum became a resident at the start of 2017. We found the management and staff to be polite and very helpful in getting Mum settled in and putting our minds at ease. My family and I feel confident we have made the right choice for Mum as the management and staff continue to be very helpful and supportive. We feel Cherry Blossom Manor to be a nice quiet and relaxing environment when we visit."

"My experience of coming to see my husband each week has always been positive. He is very well looked after and I can tell he is happy here. He is a very quiet man. The staff accept this which is respected by him."

"I really enjoyed the party on Saturday for Barchester's 25th birthday. I really enjoyed watching the others getting their pictures done by the caricaturist. I loved watching 'George and Ginger' and it was a very good atmosphere - I look forward to seeing them again!"

"From being very apprehensive for my first visit to a care home, I am overwhelmed by the level of care and patience shown by the staff at Cherry Blossom Manor. Nothing is too much trouble to make my stay a very pleasant experience. I will keep in touch with them until I need another stay!"

"Understanding staff, good facilities, good communications, a god send. The home feels good. The relationships between me and the staff are excellent and I feel at home. Mother has settled in well. I have a high trust of the staff and I know my mother is in very safe hands. I can speak from after looking after my mother with my sister for four years. I am content."

"We've been very pleased with Cherry Blossom since Mum came here in May 2016. Since the manager came in January we have been impressed with any changes, and in May the manager was extremely helpful with the arrangements for Mum to attend her grandson's wedding. All the staff and carers have been so lovely and helpful. We have another wedding in August to sort! Food is the only thing we would mark down a bit but mum is very fussy!"

"Generally excellent. Sometimes things become a little disorganised, mostly caused by staffing problems. Food is passable. Portions are quite small, except salads which are good but excellent when they have remembered to order onions and are quite large."

"The care home is very nicely run and feeling of a home from home. The only issue is the cleaning in rooms could be better and high class. So if they could address this it would add to people's stay - we have added an Air purifier to help the air be clean and fresh."

"The whole experience of moving mum from another home after 2 weeks was a positive one. We arrived without an appointment late one Sunday night to be shown around the home. The move was made easy and stress-free by the staff including Manager, Admin, Reception and Matron. A warm welcome, caring staff and lots of TLC has helped my mother to settle well and now stay permanently at Cherry Blossom. The atmosphere is friendly, caring and most of the staff are brilliant. Thank you, Cherry Blossom."

"First I must state that the staff are excellent and it is heart warming to see the interaction between staff and residents. I have visited for over 2 years, food is good and residents have a certain amount of freedom which is good. I'm not there 24-7 but sometimes wish there were more staff for one to one time. Thank you."
