About Flixton Manor

Flixton Manor is a nursing home in Trafford, Manchester. We provide nursing care for older people, and we offer respite care for planned short stays. Having nurses on the team means people can stay with us as their health needs change rather than being moved on at an already difficult moment. Medication, wound care, continence, nutrition and the steady daily work of managing long term conditions are handled here, in the resident's own room, by a team who know them well enough to notice when something is different. Families often tell us that is the part that lets them stop worrying quite so much. Nursing is only half of what makes a home, though. The rest is the ordinary shape of a good day: getting up when you want to, eating food you actually enjoy, sitting where the light is decent, and having somebody to talk to who is not in a hurry. We ask people what matters to them and we build the routine around that answer rather than around ours. Before anybody moves in we spend time with them and with the people who know them best, because the small details decide how quickly a person settles. Company and activity are offered rather than imposed, and a resident who would rather have a quiet afternoon in their own room is not a problem to be solved. Respite stays are arranged with the same thought as a permanent move. Visitors are welcome without ceremony. Please contact us if you would like to look round.
