About Long Stone Manor
Long Stone Manor is a residential care home in Wilmslow. We support older people and younger adults who need help with daily living, including people living with dementia and people with a physical disability. We also take respite bookings. We aim to feel like a house rather than an institution. People rise when they wake, keep their own furniture and photographs around them, choose how the day is spent and are not hurried through the parts that take longer than they once did. Mealtimes are meant to be enjoyed rather than got through, and visitors are welcome throughout the day without arranging it first. Supporting somebody living with dementia takes patience and a good memory for detail, so our staff learn the particulars that help: the favoured chair, the harder hours of the day, what settles a person when they are unsettled. Very little of that is written down, but it is what makes a home work. When a person's needs are changing we say so early and talk it through with the family rather than arriving with a decision already taken. The Care Quality Commission has not yet published an overall rating for us. We are glad to talk through how we staff the home, how we train people and how we handle concerns. If you are considering residential or respite care in Cheshire, please arrange to come and look round.
