We would just like to thank all of the staff and management for the very professional and considerate care given to my family member. I really cannot fault the attention to detail of her needs. We were contacted regularly when unable to visit. Many thanks.

When dad first arrived at the home we couldn’t believe our luck, things changed over the next few months. All the good senior staff have left the home. It seems to be mainly agency staff that do not know the residents properly. The CQC obviously pre announce their visits as the home was very different
that day.

Review from Helen P (Daughter of Resident) published on 3 August 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum had regular respite care at Bucklow Manor whilst living with me.
She had advanced Dementia.
Compared to all the other care homes offering respite that mum had stayed in, Bucklow Manor was by far the best, by a million miles.
For the first time, mum was happy to be left at the care home, which
was reassuring for us both.
The staff are caring and professional and I felt completely happy and secure that my mum was having the best care in my absence.
Very quickly I decided that if I couldn't manage mum at home any more, she would become a full-time resident at Bucklow Manor.
The manager is absolutely excellent.
The food, care, rooms and most importantly the staff are first rate.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My lovely Mum has Alzheimer's, the care home has been fantastic. The staff can't do enough for you and have become friends, they give me peace of mind as I know my Mum is very well looked after and safe. My visits have always been made to feel so homely. I always feel welcome and staff have always been
there to help if I have any queries. I feel so lucky to have found Bucklow Manor is nothing at all that I don't like. The care my Mum receives is exceptional.

Warm, sensitive and friendly staff run this care home in an amazing way.
The place is immaculately clean. Families of residents are welcome with a smile and an abundance of tea and biscuits.
My mum is so well cared for that I can rest peacefully when I leave her.
We could not have chosen a better
place.
Well done to all at Bcuklow Manor Care Home.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum (aged 98) needed more care than was possible where she was living prior to her move to Bucklow Manor Care Home, so moved there in May 2017.
Everyone and everything has been brilliant from the very first day the manager and her team have all been so kind yet so efficient that it was easy to forget
just how difficult their jobs are. Absolutely first class - thank you all so much for taking such great care of mum.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father was referred to Bucklow Manor in August 2017, at aged 96. He needed care and understanding and received everything I could have wished for. All staff were excellent and the place was always clean and all residents appeared to receive the same. My father became bedridden three weeks before
he passed away and their care and attention remained outstanding. I cannot express in words how grateful I am to Bucklow Manor management and staff and have no hesitation in recommending it highly.

I honestly cannot thank all the staff enough. We were so worried about nan going into a care home but they have not only cared for her, she has a new lease of life. She's smiling again, she genuinely loves being there. On top of that it, they have made it feel like a family. They have made us feel part
of that family too. There is not one negative thing I can say. Thank you so much.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.910)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.910) out of 10 for Bucklow Manor Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 49 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 49 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.910 for Bucklow Manor Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (528 Excellents x 5) + (48 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 578 Ratings = 4.91
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bucklow Manor Care Home is based on 49 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 56 registered maximum number of service users is 11.2, which has been reached with 49 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

We aim to ensure the care and support given to our residents are of high standards at all times.


My hobbies are spending time with my family, holidays, and my pets. I have a Cuban amazon parrot called Billie, an albino toad called Froggit and a bearded dragon called Puff.
