About Buttercup Lodge

Buttercup Lodge is a nursing home in Trafford supporting adults with a learning disability, autistic adults, people living with a physical disability and people with sight or hearing loss, including younger adults, whose health needs mean qualified nurses need to be on hand at any hour. Combining nursing care with support of this kind takes a particular approach. Clinical needs have to be met properly, but the day still belongs to the person living it, so we plan around what somebody enjoys and what they want to do rather than around a medical timetable. We take time to learn how each person communicates, what unsettles them and what helps them settle again, and we make sure everybody on the team responds in the same way. Where somebody can take on more for themselves, we look for the practical opportunities rather than stepping in out of habit. Respite stays are available too, for people needing short term support and for families who need a break. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. The better measure is whether people here look comfortable and whether families feel able to visit and ask anything at all.
