About Marion Lauder House

Marion Lauder House is a nursing care home based in Manchester, offering a place where older adults and their families can feel genuinely supported. The team there understands how much it means to find somewhere that feels safe and caring, and they work to create an environment where residents can feel at home. For families in and around Manchester exploring their options, it can be reassuring to know that dedicated nursing care is available close to home.

Marion Lauder House provides personal and nursing care for up to 79 older and younger adults, including people living with dementia. At inspection, 73 people were using the service.

Inspectors found that recruitment processes had gaps, with previous employment history not always recorded and references not obtained from appropriate sources. Advocacy support had not been considered for one person when care decisions were made. While medicines management was generally safe, further work was needed to ensure covertly administered medicines were clearly documented.

Records relating to fluid intake were incomplete in some cases.
