Manton Hall

Our home was among the first in the county to take part in the government’s care home testing programme in Summer 2020 – and we’ve been regularly testing colleagues and residents since.

With residents’ safety and wellbeing our absolute priority, we want to assure you that we’re doing everything possible to prevent coronavirus entering our home.

Vaccinations have been offered to all residents and colleagues and we’re making sure anyone coming to work in our home after 11 November is fully vaccinated against COVID-19 (unless exempt for medical reasons) – in accordance with government requirements.

Residents can also nominate an Essential Care Giver who is able to visit more frequently and for longer, while following the same testing and PPE safety measures as our care teams.

In addition, our homes continue to offer visits to other friends or family members, with COVID-safe arrangements in place for indoor and outdoor visiting. We’ve also invested significantly in technology – such as Skype and FaceTime– so you can stay in regular touch.

Of course, visiting remains subject to changes in government guidance and local health protection restrictions in response to transmission rates and variants of concern. We will always permit visits in exceptional circumstances.

Infection control and the safety of both residents and staff often requires quarantine measures and the isolation of care home residents. To test, monitor and allow residents to communicate with relatives, the prevalence of room-level connectivity within the home is becoming increasingly relevant.

You will be spoilt for choice at Manton Hall, with our various lounges and sitting areas, where you can relax in style. Our plush, restful and stylishly arranged main lounge opens to the sensory garden beyond. The intricate fireplace, fish tank and display of lovely pictures and flower arrangements add to the inviting and homely feel. A large flat screen television, DVD player and daily newspapers provide recreation and entertainment, whilst the sensory baskets arranged around the room inspire memory function and stimulation for residents with dementia.

Manton Hall is surrounded by two picturesque gardens. Trees, shrubs, flowers and a manicured lawn are regularly tended by both our skilled gardener and our very own residents. A vegetable patch in the sensory garden grows delicious, organic produce which is incorporated into our delectable menu. Tea and cakes are served on warm afternoons outdoors.

In all seasons, the grounds are kept neat and pretty and provide scenic and peaceful surroundings. The generous seating is particularly well used and appreciated in warm weather by residents and visitors.

You are welcome to choose your bedroom from those available and you’re invited to personalise it with your own ornaments and pictures, so that you feel truly at home. Many of the rooms have recently been refurbished to a very high standard. The ground floor rooms are most suitable for our less mobile residents and some of our rooms have space for a separate seating area where you can entertain your guests in privacy. Several can accommodate couples wishing to share a room.

All thirty four bedrooms are single occupancy and all have their own individual characteristics, so each one is as unique as its resident.

We offer a variety of well-decorated rooms to accommodate all preferences and encourage you to personalise your bedroom as much as you wish.

At Manton Hall, we offer you an exciting and stimulating programme of entertaining activities. Our programme includes armchair exercises, massage, arts and crafts, bingo, relaxation, cake decorating, dominoes and card games. Jigsaws, quizzes, reminiscence, gardening, knitting and crochet, fancy dress and sing-alongs all feature regularly.

We will encourage you to pursue your own interests and hobbies and staff members are always available to lend a hand when necessary. DVD players, large flat screen televisions and daily newspapers will provide you with entertainment and diversion. The Wii computer games console has received much enthusiasm from our residents who can now play sports from the comfort of their seats! Family members and the community are always welcome to volunteer with activities and events.

Residents can bring pets.
