About Brampton Manor

Brampton Manor is a residential care home in Newmarket supporting older people, including people living with dementia, people with physical disabilities and people with sight or hearing loss. Our starting point with anyone moving in is their life so far. The work they did, the people who matter, what a normal week used to look like, what they have never been able to abide. Care planned from that fits the person, and it makes a real difference to how settled somebody becomes in the early weeks, which tends to shape everything that follows. The emphasis here is domestic rather than clinical. Meals people actually want to eat, unhurried mealtimes, company when it is wanted and quiet when it is not, visitors at whatever hour suits them, and time outside as an ordinary part of the week rather than an occasional outing. Practical help with washing, dressing, medication and moving about fits around all of that. For people living with dementia we work with familiarity and go with the person rather than correcting them. Where somebody is unsettled we look first for a cause we can put right, which is often pain, noise, boredom or simply needing the loo. Respite stays are available for planned family breaks. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is Good. Visitors are welcome without an appointment. Come on an ordinary day, when nothing has been arranged for your benefit, and make up your own mind.
