About The Manor
The Manor is a care home in Gainsborough, Lincolnshire. We provide residential care for older people and younger adults, and we support people living with dementia and people managing a mental health condition. Respite stays are available alongside permanent places. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement. We are putting that at the top rather than at the bottom. The inspection found shortfalls, and families weighing us up deserve to know that before they read anything else we have to say. We have accepted the findings and we are working on them, and anyone considering the home should ask us precisely what has changed and expect evidence rather than reassurance. What we are trying to build here is straightforward. A home where people decide how their own day runs, where staff know the people they support properly, and where support is planned around the individual rather than around the building's convenience. For people living with dementia that means keeping routines and faces familiar. For people with long standing mental health needs it means listening to somebody who usually knows their own condition better than we do. Please visit if you are considering us. Speak to people who live here, read the inspection report in full, and make your own judgement.
