Set in leafy surroundings, right next to the beautiful Victoria Park in Salford, Manchester, The Fountains Care Centre is a 98-bed care home specialising in Residential, Nursing and Dementia Care. Visitors and residents alike will find a warm welcome and a genuinely caring environment.
The home has been thoughtfully designed with personalised care in mind and is divided into three houses. One provides the highest level of residential care, while the other two offer nursing care — one for general nursing and the other specialising in nursing dementia care.
Bedrooms are tastefully decorated, and residents are encouraged to personalise their rooms with pictures, ornaments and treasured items to help create a homely feel.
Residents at The Fountains can relax and socialise in the comfortable lounges, and enjoy delicious meals with daily menu choices available. Special dietary requirements can also be catered for.
Activities play a vital role in day-to-day life at the home. Alongside visiting singers and entertainers, a varied programme of daily activities is delivered by the home’s dedicated in-house activities coordinator.

My grandad has not been at The Fountains long and I can honestly say I can't fault the care he receives. I love how the staff are with my grandad. He was quiet when he first moved into the home as he was nervous but the management and staff have been amazing with him and me as his family. Thank you...

I'm really happy with the home. The staff are caring and considerate and they look after my mum so well. The new owners are investing in the facilities and the recent refurbishment looks fantastic. I highly recommend the home.

Lovely home, staff caring and polite. They are also very helpful. Lots of activities to do and the food looks tasty. The manager goes out of her way to help you understand what is a new experience of putting my dad in care. I would highly recommend this home.
