About Woodland Manor Care Home

Woodland Manor Care Home is a nursing home in Buckinghamshire, providing personal and nursing care to older adults, including those living with dementia. Further details from the CQC's most recent inspection are set out below.

Woodland Manor provides personal and nursing care to 41 residents aged 65 and over across four units, with capacity for up to 64 people. Two units offer residential care and two offer nursing care, with specialised support for people living with dementia. The home is purpose-built with en-suite bedrooms, communal facilities including a cinema, activity room, and café bistro.

Residents and relatives reported being satisfied with the care provided. Some relatives noted improvements in their family members' health, and while acknowledging the difficulty of pandemic visiting restrictions, they praised the home's management of COVID-19 and its success in preventing outbreaks. Systems were in place to keep people safe, and overall residents felt they received the care and support they required.
