About Hollybank Care Home
We are Hollybank Care Home in Bury, Manchester. We provide both nursing and residential care for older people, including those living with dementia and people with a physical disability, and we take respite stays. Offering both kinds of care under one roof has an advantage that matters more than it may sound. Somebody who comes to us needing residential support and whose health later becomes more complicated does not have to move somewhere new at exactly the point when a move is hardest. They stay where they are, with the staff and surroundings they already know, and the level of care changes around them. For residents living with dementia we build the day around the person rather than expecting them to fit our timetable, and when somebody is distressed we look for what is causing it before anything else. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement. We are not going to talk around that. We know what the inspection found, there is an improvement plan in place, and we would far rather go through it openly with a family weighing up a placement than have them come across it some other way.
