About Upton Manor

We at Upton Manor are proud to offer specialist nursing home care in the heart of Poole, Dorset, providing a warm and welcoming home for older people, adults with dementia, and those requiring dedicated nursing support. Our setting in the BH postcode area places us within easy reach of the coastal charm and community life that make this part of the South West so special for residents and visiting loved ones alike. Our home has been thoughtfully designed to feel like just that, a home. Comfortable communal spaces invite conversation and companionship, whilst quieter corners offer moments of calm reflection. Poole itself provides a familiar and reassuring backdrop, with the town's coastal setting and gentle pace of life complementing the peaceful atmosphere we work hard to create within our walls. Every space is arranged with residents' comfort, safety, and dignity firmly in mind. The care we provide reflects the diverse needs of the people who choose to live with us. Our nursing team supports older residents with complex health needs, offering round the clock clinical care delivered with warmth and respect. For those living with dementia, we take a person centred approach, taking time to understand each individual's history, preferences, and personality so that daily life feels familiar and reassuring. We also welcome younger adults and residents with mental health needs, recognising that meaningful care means meeting each person where they are and supporting them to live as fully as possible. Respite care is another important part of what we offer, giving family carers a well earned break whilst their loved one enjoys a comfortable stay with us. Whether the stay is short term or longer, our aim is the same, to make every resident feel valued, listened to, and genuinely cared for. Families tell us that peace of mind matters enormously, and we take that responsibility seriously in everything we do, from mealtimes and personal care to the quiet moments of companionship that mean so much. The Care Quality Commission rated Upton Manor as Good across every area assessed, including Safe, Effective, Caring, Responsive, and Well led, following their inspection in August 2021. This consistent rating reflects the standards our team upholds every day and the trust placed in us by the residents and families we support. It is a benchmark we are committed to maintaining and building upon. Choosing a nursing home is one of the most important decisions a family can make, and we understand the weight of that choice. If you are considering care for yourself or a loved one, we warmly invite you to get in touch, ask questions, and discover whether Upton Manor could be the right place to call home.
