Care Homes Owned by Each Other Care in Greater Manchester

Thank you Shawcross Carehome.

Very nice staff Very helpful Nothing too much trouble. Manager lovely person and supportive.

I never believed the time or need to choose a care home for my dad would ever come, sadly dementia began to win. I visited Shawcross and immediately felt I didn't have a dilemma, the ethos is palpable, the atmosphere is filled with empathy and genuine care. The staff know the people they are caring for, it is evident from their interest and curiosity that they want to see the whole person, and they do. Shawcross staff have given my dad as much autonomy as possible in a secure environment, he is nourished physically, mentally and emotionally, he is thriving! They are providing an environment for dad to start living again, he is seen, heard and understood, he is included and appreciated. The greatest gift they have given me is to be able to be a daughter again, we are having fun and making memories and I thank them all.

My sister-in-law has lived in this home for several months. She has a lovely large room overlooking green land. She feels at home here and enjoys watching the horses in the field. Through visiting twice a week we have witnessed the excellent care given to her by kind, respectful, caring staff. Although her condition fluctuates due to health issues, the staff have dealt with them efficiently. Our relative says she is happy here in her home. We feel at peace that she is being looked after well.

My sister required 24hr care due to failing health & dementia. Although a very difficult decision to have to make. I feel this is the right home for her. I see the same staff regularly who show that they have got to know my sister & care for her well with love & dignity. The facilities are good & the views at the back windows stunning. When she's well enough she has enjoyed us taking her to the social club next door & the church across the road which have established a good relationship with this homes staff & residents.

My mum receives excellent care. All of the staff are attentive and helpful. My mum is very settled in Shawcross Care Home and it is like home from home. I would recommend this home to anyone who is looked for place their relatives and loves ones into the care home.

Great care has been given with out relative in Shawcross he has had numerous medical issues. Staff were on hand to organise emergency help and assistance. They have a great relationship with patients in a very emotional and time consuming job. Respect and care is their priority from all the staff of Shawcross.

Shawcross home was the right choice for our family, the carehome is a credit to the staff and management who run it, nothing is too much trouble, our relative has been very ill recently they have shown care and compassion we as a family know that our relative receives the best care possible, the home is clean, food really good above all the staff do a great job.

Sadly he passed but was looked after in a way I can only describe as passionate caring and beyond professional. The staff, from cleaners, cooks, office and nurses are the most professional I can say. Not only cared for my dad but cared for each and every family member in attendance. Big big thank you especially in those last days, especially Sharon and Molly. X

After couple of week Mum showed signs of improvement started eating food. Staff, manager could not do enough, all very patient. Nothing too much trouble. Regular activities put on. Rooms are clean. Mum very comfortable.

They made a fuss of him when he was 100 and did him a party. All the carers do their best also all staff and they work so hard.

Clean and pleasant atmosphere. Does not seem like a care home, more like a well-run hotel. The staff are caring, and patient and always make me a cup of tea when visiting. My dad is always clean and happy when I visit.

The staff have been very caring and jolly with her, treating her with dignity and respect.

Our mum has been in Shawcross Care Home for only two weeks, I cannot believe the difference in the home compared to her last home. The care she is receiving has been exceptional, even as far as how clean she looks and dressed in matching clothing, making her feel good. The activities have been really good, and Mum has enjoyed them - she is still a little unsure, but with moving her from her previous home and being in the hospital for over four weeks, she's just unsettled. I'm sure she will settle and we as a family can relax she is getting the best of care.

I cannot thank Shawcross enough for making those last months as good as they could possibly be.

Grateful for the kindness, professionalism and dignity shown to our treasured mum. Staff are caring and well trained and the home is managed extremely well we always feel listened to and supported by the staff.

EMI unit - first impression of the care home was very good, felt homely as soon as we arrived, clean and had no offensive smell. My dad's room is pleasant, warm and well-equipped. The staff are pleasant, helpful and professional, nothing is too much trouble. Overall, very happy with my dad's week of respite care.

We were made very welcome on arrival. The home is very clean and warm. My husband enjoyed the food and the staff were very caring. The home seems to be well managed.

My mum has been living here for five weeks, and I'm happy, and she is too. We have been made very welcome by everyone, and I am so glad I chose Shawcross for my mum to live in.

We are able to relax and know Grandad is being taken care of.
