Welcome to Gorton Parks Care Home in Manchester, where our dedicated care team provide high-quality care for Residents. We’re lucky to be situated in peaceful Gorton, close to the monastery, but just a couple of miles from Manchester City centre. With easy access from the M60 and plenty of public transport links, it’s fuss-free to get to us.
The care we provide is person-centred, which means that we look after every aspect of a Resident’s wellbeing – including their emotional, spiritual and nutritional needs. In our warm, friendly Home, we support Residents with many different care needs, including people living with dementia, Parkinson’s and other complex needs.
Gorton Parks is comprised of several large bungalows, which are each able to offer different types of care. We have a general nursing bungalow, a nursing bungalow for people living with dementia and a bungalow that specialises in providing personal care to those living with dementia. Residents and their loved ones can rest assured that we can provide continuity of care at Gorton Parks if their care needs change.
We’re lucky to have extensive grounds that mean Residents have a lovely outdoor space to relax in. Inside, our communal areas are bright and warm, and each unit has a dedicated dining room. There’s also an in-house salon if Residents wish to have a pamper session.
When Residents arrive here, we make them feel right at home – and encourage them to personalise their bedrooms. There are plenty of chances to socialise every day, and with a busy activities calendar and new friends to get to know, it’s a happy place to call home.
Commitment to Quality
At all our care homes, we have aligned and agreed our strategic goals to define what we want our organisation to achieve.
CQC inspected our service in 2024 and at that time rated the home ‘requires improvement’.
Since this inspection, a huge amount has changed within the home. We recommend that you contact the home to find out what changes are in place now. Family feedback and reviews in 2024 and 2025 to date has been fantastic with many excellent reviews for the care, service and team members.
Person-centred care
Each Resident has individual needs, and the person-centred care approach we use focuses on getting to know them as a person. We support Residents to take an active role in decisions about how we care and support them so that they choose the life they want to lead and participate in every aspect of their life at Gorton Parks Care Home.
For us, wellbeing is about making sure Residents live meaningful lives and get to do the things that make them happy. By taking care of their emotional, spiritual, nutritional and lifestyle needs, we work to provide holistic care to everyone.
Living life to the full
Gorton Parks is a vibrant Care Home in Manchester, and our Activities team make sure there’s plenty to enjoy. There’s karaoke, film afternoons, pamper sessions, arts and crafts, quizzes, bingo and in-house entertainment. We also run therapeutic musical and reminiscence activities which support Residents living with dementia.
There are plenty of visitors from the local community, including local entertainers, visits from the donkey sanctuary, care home safari and many others. Residents can also visit their favourite places, continue to attend community groups, and socialise in the local area.
Dining and nutrition
Good food is very much a part of our Care Home in Manchester, and we know a nutritious menu is essential to keeping Residents healthy and well. Our Chef and catering team cook fresh meals daily and make sure there are always options that suit every Resident.
When a Resident arrives, the catering team will visit them to discover what they enjoy eating and note any dietary requirements. As menus are regularly updated, Residents can let us know what they enjoy eating and give us suggestions for new dishes to try.
The B Happie Mission
Our mission to promote happy residents and happy staff is underlined by our groundbreaking ‘B Happie Charter’. We achieve these values by conducting person centred activities and events with a whole home approach, by recognising and appreciating the amazing work that our teams do and by prioritising mental health and wellness.
