I have total confidence that my wife is being well looked after and support no matter how she reacts. The staff do a wonderful job - they are personal to both residents and their families in what is inevitably a difficult time.

My husband has been extremely well looked after. The food is excellent and he is always clean and shaved. He can be a difficult man but the staff get on with him with great dignity. No regrets about him coming here.

My father spent the last five years of his life at Barchester Adlington Manor Care Home. They were brilliant from start to finish. All of the staff were skilled, patient, caring and committed throughout. There were some tough times however, they created a good place for him which meant he was settled and peaceful, giving his wider family peace of mind too. We were always made welcome. Can't thank them enough.

My father has been a resident at Barchester Adlington Manor Care Home for several years now, with severe dementia. During that time, the care he has had from the staff and management has been outstanding. From the moment he first arrived until now, the team have cared for him in such a way I have never had to doubt his welfare needs are taken care of, which gives me great comfort. It hasn't been inexpensive but what price peace of mind is where my lovely dad is concerned? Thank you.

Excellent manager, finger on the pulse, kind to residents and staff. I could not single out any member of staff for being excellent as they are all lovely, caring people who do a wonderful job. To me, they are very special people. Regarding food - Mum eats very little and the staff are always willing to provide alternative meals, should she not want what is on offer. The roast dinners are beautiful. Regarding value for money - (no reflection on staff) more than willing to discuss with Barchester "owners"> Of course, Mum would rather be in her own home but realises it is no longer possible. She tells me that, in light of her bungalow no longer being an option, Barchester Adlington Manor Care Home is the next best place which is great news and peace of mind.

I think the care is outstanding. Nothing is too much trouble. The staff are very friendly, both with residents and visitors alike. The staff all work well together and are totally professional while being gentle and caring to all. The food and presentation are absolutely top-notch which is so important when caring for people who don't always have the best appetite.

Very disappointed with the whole experience. My mother-in-law's stay here was for 3 months before we were able to secure a new bed for her elsewhere. She was discharged from the hospital to help with her dementia related needs. From the very beginning we were dissatisfied with the level of care she was given, repeated falls from her bed didn't seem to concern them, despite being on a no solid food plan, inappropriate meals were left in her room on a daily basis, no assistance was given to eat, her hygiene was neglected throughout her whole stay. As a family we attempted to engage with the home on multiple occasions, the management team were largely disinterested, bland promises which were unfulfilled and multiple excuses for failings in care. We didn't see any proactive responses during her whole stay. The premises are lovely, but the staff seemed largely disinterested in providing care for the individuals.

It's important when reading these reviews to note the difference between Rowan unit and the main house. My Mum was in the main house, recently the unit manager from Rowan was covering for holiday for the manager and it was the best week we had! My Mum was placed here on a discharge from the hospital to be assessed. She has Lewy bodies Parkinson's and mobility and eating issues. We had multiple falls in a room too small, and food was left in her room with little care as to whether she ate it or not or was sick. Recently I was with her in the lounge, she was sick all over herself and the carers were too busy chatting around the dining table (not with residents) to help me, I was told 'they would clean her up shortly! Generally, I found communication poor, updates non-existent, and staff lacking motivation. A few carers were good, but generally, I found the home to have a lack of consideration and respect. As soon as we were assessed for funding and could go elsewhere we have! The overall culture was poor!

Barchester Adlington Manor Care Home is truly a lifesaver for our family. Our mum had been so resistant to going into a care home and so we supported her independently living at home as long as we could. After many falls and despite a lot of support, her needs became too much to facilitate care at home any longer. I saw several care homes that definitely did not meet Mum's needs (one was an absolute shocker, obviously not naming here and can only hope they buck their ideas up) but Adlington, from the moment I walked through the door, I felt was warm - as in friendly - professional, clean and the staff were super attentive. As I've got to know everyone, it's the staff that make this place very special. They are so lovely and are making my mum's last few months and hopefully years the very best they can be. She is happy and safe. That's the best outcome for our family right now. Thank you all at Adlington.

Adlington Manor Nursing Home's Rowan Unit is a truly exceptional facility. My friend resides in the Rowan Unit and I must say, they are very well taken care of. The residents in this unit are always happy, engaged in activities, and receive the highest level of care. I have personally witnessed the incredible job that the senior nurse and unit manager are doing. Their leadership and dedication to the residents are truly remarkable. They ensure that each resident is treated with respect, dignity, and compassion. The residents have formed a strong bond with the staff and it is evident that they are well-loved and well-cared for. Overall, I highly recommend Adlington Manor Nursing Home's Rowan Unit for anyone looking for a caring and supportive environment for their loved one. The staff's dedication, compassion, and leadership make it a top-notch facility for seniors in need of quality care.

Although the decision to transfer my husband to this care home was made by the hospital, without my agreement, I am glad to say that I am very pleased with the care he has received over the last three months. The nurses, care workers, manager and all the other members of staff I have spoken to are friendly, kind and willing to do all they can to make my husband's life safe and contented. It is a very welcoming environment, visiting is encouraged and both facilities and meals are excellent. All his visitors, friends and family, have been very impressed by his new home.

My lovely Dad had the misfortune of being a resident at Adlington Manor in October 2023. Dad had complex health needs alongside dementia. Despite this, we were assured he could be managed and would be well cared for. From the start, it was clear this wasn’t going to happen. Dad was constantly having falls, and multiple head injuries and at one point managed to pull a bookcase on top of himself. He would call us all the time distressed, most frequent during the night. Staff seemed to need a family member constantly present to manage him and were clearly unable to provide adequate supervision. Senior staff stopped and started his medication believing themselves more knowledgeable than consultant neurologists. Finally, after 2 weeks staff called an ambulance one Friday night, prepared to send a vulnerable man to an A&E department miles from his home. We then put Dad in a fold-up wheelchair and drove him home. The staff allowed this to happen despite Dad being on a DOLs. Please avoid this home.

I am more than happy with the care my mum is receiving. The staff are all very friendly, she is always kept clean and tidy. They always keep me informed if there are any problems.
25 August 2023
From the minute my mum arrived, she has been well taken care of and her interests considered. Staff have taken time to get to know my mum. They often have a joke with her and the other residents. It is nearly always a calm environment, and the staff are thoughtful and diligent. I completely trust the team to put her health first, ensuring she has all her medication. I am always told if she is unwell and what course of action will be taken. I can't recommend them highly enough.

We were accommodated at short notice for a week's respite stay for our mum. She was quickly welcomed into the body of staff and introduced to fellow residents. Any incidents that occurred during her stay were reported to us immediately. The standard of care was very good and Mum developed a particular bond with a certain member of staff who has been extremely attentive to Mum, but very understanding of our needs as we used this type of service for the first time. Would definitely recommend and will be reusing this service provided.

The care home was very warm and welcoming. Everybody was very kind and helpful. respite for my husband was first-class - I had no worries whatsoever about his care. I do hope to be able to have more respite care in the near future.
