Having meals provided and staying in a beautiful clean room was just what he needed after being made ill in his flat with mould. He has now transfered into a one-bed flat of his own and is able to cope with everyday life again. Many thanks to kind staff who made him welcome.

We are delighted to hear that staying at Abafields provided your brother with the comfort, care and support he needed during his recovery. It is wonderful to know that the welcoming environment, meals and clean, comfortable room helped him regain his independence following his illness and hospital stay.
We are especially pleased to hear that he has now moved into his own one-bedroom flat and is able to manage everyday life again. We wish him all the very best as he continues this next chapter.
Your kind words will be shared with our staff, who will be very pleased to know that they helped make his stay a positive and welcoming experience.
Thank you again for choosing Abafields and for your thoughtful feedback.
I have had my relative for 5 weeks for respite in the care home . It is small family feel kind, warm approach, sweet home where the staff have been surprisingly long tenured with very low turnover and change. This tell you about the management and the staff being happy I suppose. Happy staff happy...
The care is genuinely good and the staff is engaging and caring . The manager is new and very active and bright gentleman . Looks like the home has been remodelled recently too.

My dad came to Abafields in 2024 and although it took him a few weeks to settle in he has been happy and well cared for since he arrived. The staff are all very friendly and take good care of him. Any issues that have arisen have been dealt with promptly and professionally and I feel that my input is valued and appreciated. My dad says he is happy and gets on well with his carers. Whenever I visit I am made to feel welcome. All in all we are happy with the standard of care my dad receives.

Had to give one star to be able to review. But I will give it none. My mother has been in this horrible place for a year. We have had three section 42 for neglect for my mother. From rashes that was classed as maybe sensitive to wash powder took her out for the day and got her to see a pharmacist who said it looks like bedbugs staff wasn't helpful when we asked for gloves to put cream on mum staffs reply was what's wrong with her skin. Ended up being scabies section 42 and teams meeting with social. Another her toe nails were that overgrown she couldn't walk properly and took over two hours to sort for her so she wasn't uncomfortable another section 42 and teams meeting. Another section 42 was they hadn't showered my mum for over four weeks. Then my mum had a unwitnessed fall in the bathroom and sent to hospital on her own she has dementia and why would you send someone with dementia to hospital on her home. I can't stress enough if you love your family members don't send them here.
This is a Genuine review that comes from Hurt and pure Disgust !!! My beautiful mother in law was put in this Asylum by social workers it WAS NOT OUR CHOICE she resided here for around 14/15 months,To say she was treat like dirt on your shoe is a total understatement,I have come on here to educate...
This is a Genuine review that comes from Hurt and pure Disgust !!! My beautiful mother in law was put in this Asylum by social workers it WAS NOT OUR CHOICE she resided here for around 14/15 months,To say she was treat like dirt on your shoe is a total understatement,I have come on here to educate and warn family members so you don't have to go through the devastating heartbreak we have endured the whole time mum was placed here, My first encounter of this place was one of pure horror I went into mums room to fetch some cream to apply to her skin the smell of ammonia was stifling from the lack of care of personal needs,I will name a few problems we had : undiagnosed scabies, Not showered for a month,couldn't walk bcos of the state of her feet,Her labelled clothes going missing,All mums jewellery went missing,Sent to hospital on her own with Dementia,Faeces all over her clothes and belongings it's DISGUSTING please be aware this isn't a care home as there is no care given

The home is an old building and I can see that a number of improvements are currently ongoing to improve standards further. My mum has confirmed on a number of occasions how well she is being care for which is really reassuring at a difficult time of her life. Thanks to all concerned.

We are really pleased to hear that your Mum is being cared for well, is settling in and that the team's support helps to provide a level of reassurance at a time when things can unfortunately feel a bit "difficult". I will be more than happy to convey your appreciation to the staff team.

Mum has been a resident her since April 2020, she well cared for and seems very happy. Any issues we have had have been dealt with in a timely manner.

The management is excellent and always approachable. I am continually impressed and pleased with the welcome I always get from the staff. They are courteous and pleasant and are happy to have a quick word or ask for a quick chat about the resident you are visiting. The staff work hard to ensure all residents are cared for (some needing more help than others), and yet their approach shows efficiency, dignity, understanding and support. I am always asked how I am and would I like a drink. Staff who come through the area where I am sitting always acknowledge me. The facilities have recently been upgraded and further work is planned I understand. Abafields is a friendly home where there is a 'homely' atmosphere and the quality and level of care is excellent. It is a place where residents feel secure and supported. My friend is happy here and has a good rapport with the staff. I enjoy my visits every week.
Thank you for your very kind words, and I will ensure your experience of visiting Abafields is directly fed-back to the staff team - who always try to go "the extra mile" when it comes to hospitality and greeting the friends and relatives of the souls that live at Abafields.

My Nan is currently a resident here, and I can't praise the staff enough. The care that they show to the residents is second to none, especially two members of staff that my Nan is very fond of. They even extend their care to you, always greeted with a smile and the offer of a cup of tea which is a lovely touch. The home is always clean and well kept, and most importantly my Nan is always happy. Other residents also look well looked after. We're always kept up to date and the staff are answer on hand to answer any questions. A big thank you to all.

Thank you for your very kind comments - which we will pass across to our entire team - who work hard to ensure everyone - including your Nan - get the best care, support and quality of life that we could possibly offer. The entire team like to meet and greet family members as we like to treat everybody as part of the family at Abafields. As an independent care home, we love to make sure that we maintain the personal touch and know, not only the residents who have been entrusted into our care, but their family members also.
My Brother David has lived in a few good Care Homes in the Bolton area over a number of years. However, he has never been happier than he is since moving to Abbeyfield. The building is currently being renovated, but that is not as important as the actual care he receives from all who work at the...
I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Abbeyfield Care Home. 10 out of 10.
My sister was resident here during the last months of her life, due to the pandemic I was unable to visit, but if I called to arrange a time I could speak to her and her daughters kept me updated and assured me she was being looked after fantastically.

My mum has been a resident at Abafields since August 2019, and we are so happy with the tender loving care she has received continuously. Her every need is met all the times. The staff and management are the best you could ever ask for, especially in the current situation of COVID-19, ensuring all residents and staff members are safe, well and entertained all the times. I would highly recommend this home to any families that are struggling, as we did in knowing they can no longer care for their loved one themselves. The building may not be the most modern, but it is very well suited to the age group it serves and makes them feel more at home.
Thank you, Elaine, for your comments - we appreciate any feedback. It is especially good to hear that you have felt reassured with the current Covid situation.
