Thank you so much for this review. Your mother is an absolute pleasure to care for, we really appreciate the kind words.
This is everything that my mum requires. I feel now, with the help of the staff, she is now interacting more. Thank you.

After being assessed and considered to be eligible for the home after 3 days we were informed that they could not meet his needs and he would have to move. In general the day staff were great but found the night staff to be very uncaring and inpatient. I found my partner in bed with his day clothes on and soaking wet at 8am when i visited him early 12 times out of the four weeks he was there. Within the first week his glasses were lost and found the following day, and his hearing aids were lost never to be found. A large poster was placed in his room to indicate that his family would be doing his washing and no item of clothing was to be removed. Half of my partners clothes still went missing. When I complained his tooth brush was not being used as it was bone dry every morning i was told it had been recorded on his notes that his teeth had been brushed. I would never recommend this care home to anyone who wanted compassion and genuine care for their loved ones find somewhere else.
Sadly, the reviewer did not inform us of her partner's habit of eating objects (tissues, plastic) during meals, a major choking risk. The reviewer claimed the resident wore pads and complied with care despite urinary incontinence, which proved untrue. The resident also had a habit of removing pants...
Sadly, the reviewer did not inform us of her partner's habit of eating objects (tissues, plastic) during meals, a major choking risk. The reviewer claimed the resident wore pads and complied with care despite urinary incontinence, which proved untrue. The resident also had a habit of removing pants and urinating in public areas. As a residential, not nursing, care home, we couldn't meet the resident's needs and informed the reviewer immediately. The reviewer admitted knowing of these behaviours. Had we known, we would not have accepted the resident. Despite this, the reviewer left them in our care. The resident's glasses were found under their bed. Items 'lost' were not labelled as agreed. The resident also took his things to others' rooms. We regret the failure of respite care, but it was due to the reviewer's lack of candour and unrealistic expectations of our capabilities. Despite this, we kept the resident safe and comfortable. We wish them all the best in their new nursing home.
My sister went into Birkdale Tower Lodge quite recently. It is taking her time to settle. My first impression was how very nice it was, the decor and cleanliness are fantastic. I have stayed twice to have Sunday lunch with my sister and I found it most enjoyable. The staff are so very nice and so...
Nowhere is like home but Birkdale Tower Lodge comes as next best.
Thank you so much for your extremely kind words, it means the world to me and the team! Of course, we can never truly replace one's home but we strive to be a home away from home. Your sister is a pleasure to care for and you are welcome for Sunday lunch anytime!
Outstanding care home. The staff are amazing. Friendly, caring and knowledgeable. The facilities are also really good. Both my parents were residents and they received such good care. I could not recommend enough.

The staff and building are exceptional and there is always something to be involved in should he wish to participate. The lodge is cleaned to a high standard and it does not feel like a traditional care home but more like a hotel on occasions.
Thank you so much for leaving this review, it means the world to the team! Your father is an absolute pleasure to have here.
Always found staff helpful and polite. Just problem in evening returning, no one on reception.

Dad stayed at Birkdale Tower Lodge for respite care during July and August. It was a difficult decision at first but due to family circumstances, it was what was best for us all. Having met the staff on our initial visit to this lovely home, we were reassured that Dad's care would be in safe hands....
As a family, we cannot thank the staff enough for the care, involvement and friendship shown during his time there - I'm looking forward t a time when I can stay too!

I have had a few issues with laundry items going missing even though my name has been sewn in all items. Also could clothes by hung up or folded when back from laundry as my daughter has to tidy my clothes.
I am delighted to find myself in a residence where I am completely contented and happy. I can find no aspect that could be improved upon. The staff are tremendous and give one a great feeling of well-being.

All the staff have shown a fantastic, caring nature and have made her feel she is at home. I cannot fault all the staff, they are just fantastic. Birkdale Tower Lodge has taken a huge stress off our shoulders in my mother's transfer to a care home.
Great staff. They deserve a Christmas 'thank you' meal at a restaurant.

My mum was admitted to hospital with a nasty chest infection from home. It was clear that there were new needs in hospital and I needed urgent respite for my mother. I called Birkdale Tower Lodge - they assessed her the next day and agreed to her going to the Lodge immediately. This took a lot of stress away from me. My mother really enjoyed her stay and decided she did not want to go back to living independently. We are so pleased that she is very settled and happy. Thanks.
I have been at Birkdale Tower Lodge on respite care for four out of the last five weeks and have found the quality of the home, my room, the staff and the food to be very good/excellent.

What can I say? Thank you so much for your lovely comments, I will make sure I pass them on to our staff team, it is such an honour when we receive feedback like this as I know we are doing our very best every day.

I am so proud to be the manager of Birkdale Tower. I’m extremely passionate about providing our 5-star luxury experience to some of the most vulnerable in our society, because they truly deserve the best and are just in need of help.
My favourite part of my role is getting to know each individual and understanding what approaches work best for their unique needs. I take real pride in creating positive, person-centred experiences that make a genuine difference in people’s daily lives. I love coming to work, not knowing what new challenges await and what new people I can meet.
I've worked in care all my working life since I was 18, but it was sort of a family business; my mother and her mother were care home managers, so it was an extremely natural decision. I worked hard, climbing the ladder and achieved my first managerial role when I was 29, achieving my first goal with CQC at the same age. I think what makes a good manager in our industry is someone who sets the tone for compassion and quality. It’s about supporting staff so they can provide the best quality of care, fostering teamwork, and always leading with empathy and understanding.
Outside of work, I’m a proud dad of 2 and a bit of an adventurer. I love nothing more than to don my walking boots and go to the Lakes or Wales. If I can drag along my daughters Bella and Gracie, then even better!
