My dad moved into Safe Harbour Bebington in July 2023 from his assisted living flat, as his Alzheimer's progressed it just wasn't an appropriate place for him to be staying - he was wandering and bored. He moved to Safe Harbour for a 2 week trial and settled in immediately so became a permanent resident.
The level of care is second to none and he is happy, healthy - putting on a little of the weight he lost in the last few years and he has lots of new friends there. One of the things we loved about Safe Harbour is the number of chaps that live there, they have a men's club every Friday where they play cards/games and drink beer (alcohol free). The residents have a busy schedule of activities, meals, drinks and snacks. Lots of interesting events - Dad stroked a skunk and cuddled a meerkat when the petting zoo visited!
Staff are fab The GP visits weekly, all residents are seen on the round. Regular visits from the hairdresser and chiropodist too. It's a lovely, happy and safe home.

Reply from Holly Dooley, HR Manager at Safe Harbour Dementia Care Home Bebington

Wow, anyone would think you were on commission with such a brilliant review! Dad love the petting zoo visiting, and although Dad sticks with the alcohol free version not everyone does. We are glad that as a family, you are happy with the care Dad receives from our wonderful team. You as a family are always very kind and that means a lot to us. Thank you so much.

The staff here are wonderful. My father-in-law, who has Alzheimer's, is always clean, well-dressed, and smiling. There is always some form of entertainment, and it shows how much the staff care for their residents every day. You are always welcomed as a visitor at any time by pleasant, happy and caring
staff like one big happy family. I don't think he could be in any better place than safe harbour.

Reply from Holly Dooley, HR Manager at Safe Harbour Dementia Care Home Bebington

Thank you for this - my favourite line is, "I don't think he could be in any better place than Safe Harbour" That means a lot as the team works so hard and is truly a caring bunch; we certainly do all get along so well. Thank you for your kind review

My aunt has dementia and has been in Safe Harbour for 3 and a half years. My brother, sister and I are her only living relatives and no longer live in the area. My sister in Canada, myself in Northamptonshire and my brother in Warrington. Therefore, we cannot visit as often as we would like. When we
do go (with no prior warning to the staff) it is obvious that she is so well cared for. Her room is immaculately clean, she is always clean - hair and nails always beautiful and she is very happy in herself, as are the other residents who often chat to us.
The staff are amazing - always friendly and helpful. Communication is excellent - they always let us know of any issues, medical or otherwise that occur.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Safe Harbour to anyone looking for a home for a loved one.

Reply from Holly Dooley, HR Manager at Safe Harbour Dementia Care Home Bebington

This is very kind of you to say, your auntie is a joy to care for. She is likened to the queen often and we are all looking forward to celebrating her 102nd birthday in a few, short months time. Thank you for being such a lovely and supportive family as always.

Since my dad moved into Safe Harbour the care he has been given is outstanding. All the staff are very friendly, caring and professional.
I know my dad is well cared for not only do they care for dad they also provide fantastic entertainment that caterers for all residents.
All I want for dad is to
be happy and safe and here in Safe Harbour he truly is.
I would highly recommend this home to anyone who is looking for a setting to look after a loved one.

Reply from Holly Dooley, HR Manager at Safe Harbour Dementia Care Home Bebington

This is so lovely of you, I'm glad you and Mum are happy with Dad's care. He is a lovely gentleman and we all think so highly of him and you all as a family. Thank you for all your support as always.

My husband has been in Safe Harbour since January 2023 - he has mixed dementia of Alzheimer's and Vascular dementia - the staff are wonderful - caring and understanding as they have helped me along this incredibly difficult journey. I can visit any time of the day and night and I am always met with
a smile. The staff go beyond what is expected of them and genuinely care about their residents.
I feel very fortunate to have found Safe Harbour as I navigate this awful disease.
The staff are so knowledgeable of dementia - my husband was refused daycare at a previous home in Heswall - even though they had a dementia floor - Safe Harbour embraced him as a daycare patient prior to his admission. I would recommend Safe Harbour without hesitation.

Reply from Holly Dooley, HR Manager at Safe Harbour Dementia Care Home Bebington

This is a lovely review, thank you. We are happy to hear you are always met with a smile and you feel the staff are understanding of what is a difficult time for you, as a family. This is a great recommendation.

My mum had been in safe harbour for 20 months before she passed away this month. I cannot praise the staff enough they go above and beyond to take so much care of everyone and are very supportive of the resident's family.
I feel so lucky that I found safe harbour and would highly recommend it to anyone.

I find Safe Harbuor very friendly and the staff are always glad to help. My husband is being looked after very well. He seems to be happy and becoming more animated and takes part in activities especially when it involves 60s music. The staff work hard as it must be difficult at times with all the different
personalities to deal with.

Reply from Holly Dooley, HR Manager at Safe Harbour Dementia Care Home Bebington

Thank you for your review, it is very kind of you to take the time to complete one for us. I am glad you feel your husband is well looked after, the staff certainly do work very hard and are always person-centred so that helps with the varying levels of dementia and as you say, personalities.

My husband seems very happy healthy and content with his new home. All your staff are very kind and supportive. He is much safer living with you in his diagnosis than our lovely Poppyfields which is so open and large. We thank all of you for his care. I feel much more content knowing that he is safe
and enjoy the little videos that you sent me. Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas. It was very kind of you to allow our family to have tea together with my husband in the dining room, so thank you all again.

Reply from Holly Dooley, HR Manager at Safe Harbour Dementia Care Home Bebington

This is very sweet of you. Safety is key and we are glad you feel reassured by our ability to keep your husband safe. I am glad the videos and photos have brought you joy, it is nice for families to see glimpses of what happens when you can't be with your loved one. Any time you would like to come again, that's no problem at all. Thank you again for your review.

Mum has been a resident here since 2020. She moved in the midst of the national lockdown, and it was a very difficult time.
She settled surprisingly well as she has advanced dementia and the staff have always been fabulous with both her and me. I get regular updates regarding any medical reviews or
medicine changes and photos (when she's in the mood for one). I can't fault the staff or the facilities. There are regular themed days and entertainment and residents are encouraged to join in but not pressured if they aren't in the mood. I am very pleased that she is here as she is happy and settled.

Reply from Holly Dooley, HR Manager at Safe Harbour Dementia Care Home Bebington

This is lovely, thank you. Mum is quite a character which we love about her. You have always been so kind and supportive of us all and we thank you for that. The pandemic was not an easy time at all, especially for you to trust us to take care of Mum with such difficult guidelines being set. We are glad you are happy with how it all went. Thank you for your kind review.

My husband has dementia and has been at Safe Harbour for more than a year now. The care he has received during this time has been excellent. The staff are all amazing. He has always been treated with kindness, understanding and respect. They take time to listen to his rambles and interact with him.
There is a warm and friendly atmosphere within the home and they have always made me feel welcome when visiting my husband which I can do anytime. His room is always spotless and he’s well dressed and shaved. I have also been impressed with the wide range of activities provided for residents and all are included whatever their ability.
They provide a variety of food and cater for wide range of needs.
Thanks to everyone at Safe Harbour. You’re definitely the best and a true Home from Home.

Reply from Holly Dooley, HR Manager at Safe Harbour Dementia Care Home Bebington

Thank you so much for your very lovely review. We love to see you when you visit as you treat our team with such respect and kindness. I especially love your line 'a home from home' because of course, we can't match the home you have lived in your whole married life but to be able to help you feel such safety and comfort is the perfect compliment to the team. Thanks again.

We have used Safe Harbour for both respite and daycare periods for my wife. On every occasion, the team ensured that both myself and my wife were completely at ease. I must add, however, that my wife also attends weekly for a daycare session and is already familiar with the staff.
At first glance you
might feel that the fabric of the building could use a “lick of paint” but don’t be fooled as that is only superficial, Safe Harbour has its priorities in the right place, ensuring that the service users are looked after. My wife has some complex dietary needs but everything is taken care of without any fuss. Everyone of the staff I have met has been cheerful, courteous, helpful and supportive.
My wife is always happy to attend daycare and I feel totally comfortable in leaving her in their safe hands.

Reply from Holly Dooley, HR Manager at Safe Harbour Dementia Care Home Bebington

Thank you so much for your review. We are glad you feel at ease whilst at our home. We are always to cater to any complex needs where possible, so we are glad to be able to help with this concern.

After 4 difficult months in her first residential care home, Mum moved to Safe Harbour in early November. In the past 6 weeks Mum’s wit, energy and spirit have returned. Mum’s become more engaged in her care and enjoys participating in the wide range of social activities. Mum’s eating hot meals again,
it’s such a joy to see her tucking into food after several months of declining. Mum’s allowing the care team to assist with her personal care, whereas in her previous care home, this was always distressing for her and difficult to achieve. I can’t fault the team of carers, support staff and management at Safe Harbour, their knowledge of dementia care, their sensitive, skilful approach and their excellent care and patience have enabled Mum to feel safe and have enabled her to build up trust and develop a sense of belonging. We were encouraged to bring in her own bedroom furniture and fill the walls with photos of her loving family, so she really does feel safe and at home. Safe Harbour really does live up to its name!

Reply from Holly Dooley, HR Manager at Safe Harbour Dementia Care Home Bebington

Thank you so much for this lovely review. Mum really is doing so well and we are very happy with her improvements, we were confident we could get these results and are confident for even more improvement. Knowing you guys as a family finally feel Mum is in the right environment with such a brilliant team behind her is music to my ears. Thanks again

My mother has been in Safe Harbour for nearly eighteen months now with dementia. Living in London, I rely on the staff to keep me up to date, which they do brilliantly. The apprehension of putting a parent into a dementia home was quickly relieved when I saw how well Mum had taken to it. She loves the
care and attention. She is always well-presented. The home does its best to keep doing interesting things for the resident's safety. I am kept advised of any small thing that Mum has. I couldn't ask for more. The home itself is clean and tidy, and Mum's room is very nice. It has been a tremendous relief for myself and my brothers to have found somewhere where she is happy.

Reply from Holly Dooley, HR Manager at Safe Harbour Dementia Care Home Bebington

This is lovely to read; I am so glad you feel relieved of Mum being cared for. A care home is a daunting thought when putting the care of your relative in the hands of others. Thank you for your kind review.

Since my dad was diagnosed with vascular dementia in his 60s, we have struggled to find appropriate support. Many homes that claimed to offer dementia support could not cope with my dad’s “wandering”, and his worsening cognitive ability inside a fit and active body.


Safe Harbour has been the only

residential facility where staff have been unfazed by my dad’s needs. As a specialist dementia setting for EMI residential (and nursing), staff are capable and positive about calming, distracting and reassuring my dad when he is confused and distressed.


Nobody wants to face the reality of putting a loved one into care. But our distress was worsened by finding so few settings that were willing to work with us as we took this next step. Finding Safe Harbour was a blessing, and we are grateful to the staff for all that they do. Thank you.


Reply from Holly Dooley, HR Manager at Safe Harbour Dementia Care Home Bebington

That is really lovely, thank you! We are glad Dad has settled in so well. We are happy that you as a family have found somewhere Dad is truly happy. Thanks for taking the time to review us, we do appreciate it.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.846)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.846) out of 10 for Safe Harbour Dementia Care Home Bebington is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.846 for Safe Harbour Dementia Care Home Bebington is calculated as follows: ( (182 Excellents x 5) + (31 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 214 Ratings = 4.846

  • b) 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 Safe Harbour Dementia Care Home Bebington is based on 18 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 47 registered maximum number of service users is 9.4, which has been reached with 18 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
