About Highfield Manor Care Home
Highfield Manor is a residential care home in Heywood. We are home to older people, including many living with dementia and people with physical disabilities, and we support younger adults too. We also offer respite stays for families who need a planned break. We try to run this as a household rather than a facility, and the test of that lies in ordinary things. Whether staff knock and wait. Whether you can get a cup of tea late in the evening. Whether the person helping you knows what you did for a living. Whether anybody notices when you have been quieter than usual for a few days. For residents living with dementia we protect the routine and keep the surroundings familiar, and we ask families for the working life, the places and the names, because those are what still connect when a great deal else has gone. For residents with physical disabilities we plan around what somebody can still manage themselves rather than what is fastest for us. Respite guests are looked after properly rather than simply accommodated. We ask beforehand how the person likes things done, since a fortnight gives us no time to learn it slowly. The Care Quality Commission rates us good overall. Relatives are welcome unannounced, which is the only visit that shows you anything.
