Is this home safe?
Is the care effective?
The home received a Good rating for Effectiveness at its January 2025 assessment. The Effective domain covers care planning, staff training, healthcare access, nutrition, and whether care reflects individual needs. The home lists dementia as a specialism, which means inspectors would normally look at dementia-specific training and whether care plans are detailed and personalised. No specific findings, examples, or quotes relating to any of these areas are included in the published report text.Is this home caring?
Fieldhouse Care Home received a Good rating for the Caring domain at its January 2025 assessment. The Caring domain is where inspectors assess whether staff treat people with warmth, respect their dignity, protect their privacy, and support their independence. A Good rating in this domain means inspectors were satisfied with what they observed and heard. No specific observations, staff behaviours, or resident or relative quotes are included in the published report text to illustrate what this looked like in practice.Is the home responsive?
The home received a Good rating for the Responsive domain at its January 2025 assessment. Responsiveness covers whether the home tailors care to individual needs, provides meaningful activities, supports people to maintain interests and independence, and has a functioning complaints process. The home lists dementia as a specialism, meaning responsiveness to the specific and changing needs of people living with dementia would be a focus for inspectors. No specific detail about activities, individual engagement, complaints handling, or how the home responds to changing needs is included in the published report text.Is the home well-led?
Fieldhouse Care Home received a Good rating for Well-led at its January 2025 assessment. The home is run by Franklin Care Group Limited, with Mrs Anne Louise Bannon as the Registered Manager and Mr Babar Khan as the Nominated Individual. A named manager and a named responsible individual in post at the time of inspection is a basic requirement for this domain. The home had previously carried a Requires Improvement overall rating, meaning the leadership team has overseen an improvement in standards. No specific detail about management culture, staff empowerment, governance systems, or how the home responds to feedback is included in the published report text.

What the evidence base says
Fieldhouse specialises in dementia care and supports adults over 65. The home's experience in these areas means they understand the particular needs that come with age-related conditions. With dementia as one of their specialisms, the staff here have the training and experience to support residents living with the condition. This expertise helps them provide the right kind of care as needs change over time. All areas worth probing directly during a visit.
The DCC Verdict
Our editorial view, built from the three lenses: what families tell us, what inspectors record, and how the home sits against good dementia-care practice.
DCC Family Score
Fieldhouse Care Home received a Good rating across all five domains at its most recent assessment in January 2025, but the published report text provides very little specific detail about what inspectors actually observed. The score of 62 reflects that positive rating while being honest that we cannot verify the depth of evidence behind it from the information available.
Homes in North West typically score 68–82.The three-lens summary
What families tell us
Families consistently mention how friendly and attentive the staff are here. Several relatives have commented on the responsive care their loved ones receive, with staff who notice when something's needed and act on it quickly.
What inspectors have recorded
The home appears to run smoothly, with organised systems that work well in practice. One family member particularly appreciated the considerate way staff handled things during their parent's final days, showing real thoughtfulness when it mattered most.
How it sits against good practice
If you're considering Fieldhouse for someone you love, visiting in person will give you the best sense of whether it feels right for your family.
Worth a visit
Fieldhouse Care Home, at Spinners Green in Rochdale, was assessed in January 2025 and rated Good across all five inspection domains: Safe, Effective, Caring, Responsive, and Well-led. The home is registered to care for adults over 65 and for people living with dementia, with 42 beds. A named Registered Manager and Nominated Individual are in place, suggesting a stable leadership structure. It is worth noting that an earlier inspection record from January 2024 carried a Requires Improvement rating, meaning this Good rating represents a recovery in quality, which is encouraging but also something to probe further. The main limitation of this report is that the published inspection text contains very little specific detail about what inspectors actually saw, heard, or recorded during their visit. That means the Good ratings cannot be independently contextualised from this document alone. On a visit, focus your attention on what you can observe directly: whether staff use your parent's preferred name, whether the corridors feel calm or rushed, and whether the manager is present and known to staff. Ask specifically about night staffing ratios, how care plans are reviewed, and what one-to-one engagement looks like for people with advanced dementia who cannot join group activities.
