All the carers who visit my wife are superb. They are caring, careful, diligent and very professional,. They make her feel like a human being. It is the administrative support that lets Manorcourt down. Weekly schedules are not received on time, are never accurate and are constantly being changed. We
are not notified of any changes. 'Out of hours' was contacted last saturday and nobody called back. Flyers are sent out with glowing spelling mistakes.

Reply from Danielle Sterne, Healthcare Home Manager at Manorcourt Homecare (Thetford)

Thank you for your review. It is always good to hear the good and bad. As your new Branch Manager I reassure you that these are key areas that are being handled with care to improve. Lovely to hear that our wonderful carers are "superb" with your wife, this feedback will mean a lot to them. Thank you again Danielle & Team

Mostly it is good but it would be good if they could check the dates on the food in the fridge and if about to go out of date and can be frozen put it into freezer.
I would be intrigued to know a week's worth of visits as not sure they are spending the time allocated to my Dad on some visits.

We have only used this service since last November, the carers who come to assist my husband appear very good at their work. They have certainly helped him mentally after his recent hospital stays. He looks forward to the days they visit.

From the start of my wife's bed care, I found the carers to be professional, thoughtful and empathetic, always mindful of my wife's condition and wishes. They are very good communicators, working well as a team, helping to keep any discomfort, eg through necessary rolling, to a minimum. They are polite,
courteous and caring. There were three visits a day and they never failed to visit.

General opinion expressed is when leaving my wife as a day care visitor, that she is always made welcome and taken onto the residential area where she is integrated with the residents. Of which she is family with one or two people.

Thank you for the feedback and your review. Please can you contact us to discuss this as I feel this is relevant to our home colleagues, we would like to ensure that this positive feedback can reach them. Thank you again for finding the time to comment on the care you receive for your wife.

Although we find the overall service satisfactory, our main concern is no 24-hour on-call service. Whilst working for the ambulance service, we tried to contact your agency by the phone number printed in your care plans, to find it wasn't manned.

Reply from Jeni Cawkill, Registered Manager at Manorcourt Homecare (Thetford)

Thank you for your review and the time taken to respond. To answer your question in regards to on-call service. We currently offer an on-call service from 6 am-9 am and 5 pm- 11 pm. Due to our on-call being manned by internal staff, outside of this, clients are advised to contact night owls. This is explained to all clients on their assessment visits. Thank you again for your review.

My father-in-law received care from June 2022 until November 2022. He was shown kindness and excellent care. The carers also showed great respect to my mother-in-law and family, at all times. Sadly he passed away this weekend, but I have written this because this last week has been very difficult, to
say the least. But the carers have shown their utmost respect at every call leading up to his passing. They have shown so much compassion to him and his wife that they need to be recognised for this, especially three members in particular. Also, the coordinators have always been willing to help in any way they can. We all understand they are understaffed and under so much pressure. But these people need to get recognised for what they do, without these people you wouldn't have such a great team.

Reply from Jeni Cawkill, Registered Manager at Manorcourt Homecare (Thetford)

Thank you so much for taking the time to complete this review, particularly with the recent experience and trauma your family have been under. Please accept my condolences to yourself and your family. I agree that the care staff and coordinators work under pressure. We work hard to ensure that they are recognised for the work they do. I will pass on your thanks and will ensure that they are recognised from myself and MCC for their hard work. Thank you again for your kind words.

Overall care is excellent.
Sadly the care company are very short-staffed, which means some visits are early and some are late. Hopefully, with ongoing recruitment, this will improve.
All staff are polite, caring and very positive - well done!

Reply from Jeni Cawkill, Registered Manager at Manorcourt Homecare (Thetford)

Thank you for taking the time to review our service. I am sorry to read that at times the service provided has fallen below what you expect in regards to the timings of your calls. Please let me reassure you that we are working hard in the background to recruit more staff in the team.
