About Us
The Willows Care Home, Salford
Welcome to The Willows Care Home, a warm and welcoming care home in Higher Broughton, Salford. Set within a beautiful Grade II listed building, our home combines historic character with a comfortable, friendly environment where residents can feel truly at home.
Overlooking Albert Park and the Broughton Cricket and Rugby Club, The Willows offers a distinctive setting where residents can enjoy attractive views and a connection with the local community.
With forty-nine bedrooms, we provide general residential care and general nursing care, supporting residents to live as independently as possible while receiving compassionate, professional support when they need it.
Person-Centred Care in the Heart of Salford
At The Willows, we believe that every person is unique. Our caring team takes time to get to know each resident, including their preferences, routines, interests, and life experiences.
Care is tailored around each individual, with dignity, independence, health, and wellbeing at the heart of everything we do. We work closely with residents, families, and healthcare professionals to provide care that is respectful, reassuring, and personal.
Whenever possible, residents are encouraged to make their own choices and remain involved in everyday life.
A Comfortable Home with Character
The Willows is a place where residents can settle in, make friends and enjoy a sense of belonging. Our communal areas provide welcoming spaces to relax, chat with friends, enjoy a cup of tea or spend time with family and visitors.
Residents are encouraged to personalise their bedrooms with photographs, favourite ornaments, and treasured belongings from home. These familiar touches can help create a space that feels comfortable, personal, and familiar.
Activities, Friendship and Wellbeing
Life at The Willows is about more than care. We want residents to enjoy their days, maintain their interests, and have opportunities to try something new.
