I have not actually been with my mother when the carers attend, but she has always been pleased with the care they have provided and treated with care and respect. I have only dealt with the office staff who have always been efficient and helpful.

Hi, we are pleased that Mum is happy with the care provided and thank you for good positive feedback.

Carers arrive at irregular hours, without me being told. Usually, in the mornings, my carer arrives at 9 am, but sometimes sent in at 7 am. So communication from the office would help. If a carer is blocked, it means blocked, not to be used as an option. No problems with the care staff, they are excellent.

Reply from Anne-Marie Brown, Registered Branch Manager at Manorcourt Homecare (Norwich)

I'm glad you are happy with the care staff. If you have an email address we are more than happy to send your rota in this way. Unfortunately, we are limited on staff in certain areas so will always offer a care worker to attend the call regardless of gender if the regular staff member is not available.

Staff are very overworked and under stress. They need strong support.
Office staff have to go on care too so can't provide the backup needed.
Feel very sorry for them, something needs to be done.

Reply from Anne-Marie Brown, Registered Branch Manager at Manorcourt Homecare (Norwich)

We have a recruitment drive in place to help with recruitment. I am more than happy to listen to any ideas that you may have for improvements towards recruitment of staff. I'm sorry you feel this way, yet the office staff going out to support is the backup for any uncovered care.

Find it very difficult as we do not know which carer is coming, also at what time they are coming. I could understand when the virus was here, but now the virus seems to be a little better?
From a client's point of view, when the bill is two months at a time, we have nothing to look back at what happened
at that time.

Reply from Anne-Marie Brown, Registered Branch Manager at Manorcourt Homecare (Norwich)

If you provide us with an email address we can make sure that rotas are emailed to you also, with this, you will be able to access the new online task sheet notes. Anything else please call and we will be more than happy to assist.

The family feel that the level of care given to our mother has been very good, even when so many staff were off sick. We have always found the office staff very friendly and helpful.

Thank you for your review. We appreciate your understanding through the pandemic with staffing levels. I will pass on your appreciation to the staff.

The carers are excellent, you can't fault them. There is only one male carer who's no good doing his job. He's got no telephone manners and he doesn't sign the sheet and misses them out. The manager lets him get away with it. When he arrived he sat in the car for about 10 minutes before he came in,
I have banned him from coming here anymore. The manager does not back up the carers, we are losing a lot of nice carers.

Following on from the telephone conversation we had on 12/04/2021 I am pleased that your issues have been addressed and rectified.

There are good things, and not so good. Some of this is down to the office staff and the way they plan rotas all over the place. As a disabled lady, I need my times to be fairly stable. Does the office know this? Yes. Does this happen? No.
My thoughts on my carers. Some are very good and go the extra
mile. Others are not very professional. We should also have schedules, after all, when paying for a service I expect one.

Reply from Anne-Marie Brown, Registered Branch Manager at Manorcourt Homecare (Norwich)

I am sorry that you are not happy at this time. Schedules are now posted again but had stopped as per communications due to reduced staff affected with COVID. The rotas were planned in relation to the staffing available at that time. We should now all see an improvement and back to the quality service we would expect.

We have found the carers excellent in every aspect of our dad's care. The carers had patience with him, even when he asked them many times was this his home now? They all chatted to him and treated him with respect.
Our overall treatment from the managers to the carers has been first class. We send
many thanks to all.

With the help of Manorcourt, my husband has managed to live at home. Whilst I am able to continue overseeing his medication at the moment, our family is confident that the carers could take charge of this if I was ever too indisposed to cope, as they could also make sure he had something to eat. As
one would expect, your most experienced carers are more thorough with early morning washing. Those still learning are always very willing if we think they have overlooked anything.

My carers are very polite. They do a lovely job, they are very kind to my husband and kind to me too. I have no concerns regarding my carers. They do a lovely job and are very helpful to us both.

I am happy with the service provided and couldn't be happier with how my care is being handled by both the office staff and carers.
All the staff who come to me treat me with respect and dignity.
They always take their time and it is never any trouble for them to support me with anything.

After a couple of really quite bad experiences at the hands of other care providers, we were fortunate to be put into the hands of Manorcourtn Homecare. I cannot recommend them highly enough. My Mum suffers from mild dementia and is completely immobile and since Manorcourt have taken over her care I
can see a real change for the better in her. The carers are friendly, respectful, courteous, knowledgeable and always ready to have a laugh with my Mum. If we have any kind of issue, a call to the office is all it takes to sort it out. Having experienced the unacceptable side of adult care, I am pleased and relieved to now be with Manorcourt Homecare and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them if you're looking for someone to care for your loved one.

We were pleased to receive help from the Manorcourt Team. My husband hasn't minded them. The only trouble I have found is at time times, they were a bit later than the stated time, which I suppose couldn't be helped.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Home Care Provider 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 3.479 for Manorcourt Homecare (Norwich) is calculated as follows: ( (29 Excellents x 5) + (27 Goods x 4) + (11 Satisfactorys x 3) + (14 Poors x 2) + (13 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 94 Ratings = 3.479

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Manorcourt Homecare (Norwich) is based on 9 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4.9

Job Title: Branch Manager

Joined: 2016

Anne-Marie has completed her NVQ 5 in Health & Social Care. She started working at Manorcourt Homecare in 2016 and prior to joining the company was a Senior Care Co-ordinator.
To be good in your role Anne-Marie believes you need to be a good communicator, have a good rapport with all, empathy and respect.

The biggest professional challenge in her current role was being able to turn around an area which was struggling and her biggest career highlight to date was being nominated and selected as a finalist for the carers award and the Groups Star Awards in 2018.
Qualities that make a good home manager are being someone with good organisational skills, and showing respect and empathy towards all staff and service users. To be non-judgmental and not influence your own personal beliefs on others. To lead and guide, not to pressure and demand.
