Trafford Waters Care Home

Life Library

The life story app that enables genuine, person-centred care to those in residential care

LifeLibrary is an easy-to-use app that allows carers and families to build a digital memory book for each resident. This shared resource helps carers provide personalised care, strengthens communication, and creates opportunities for meaningful engagement and activities.

For families, LifeLibrary provides a valuable connection to their loved ones, offering a window into their daily lives at the care home. By contributing photos, stories, and updates, families become active participants in their loved one’s care journey, fostering a sense of closeness and peace of mind.

“It’s a great resource for families to share and for you to share with our family member. I look forward to looking at the photos… It helps us all to see the activities that mum gets involved in, which I might not otherwise know about, because she often forgets what she’s done.”
– Family member of Resident

A message from our Home Manager

Following the recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), Trafford Waters Care Home was rated as Requires Improvement.

The wellbeing, safety and quality of care provided to our residents continue to be our highest priorities. We have already implemented a comprehensive action plan to strengthen our service further and address the areas highlighted within the report.

The home is receiving enhanced support from senior leaders across the organisation, including increased oversight, additional quality assurance measures and ongoing monitoring to ensure improvements are embedded and sustained. We are working closely with our team members, residents, relatives and external partners to ensure that the actions we take deliver meaningful and lasting benefits for those who live and work in our home.

We would like to reassure residents, relatives and stakeholders that Trafford Waters Care Home remains focused on providing safe, compassionate and high-quality care. Progress against our action plan is being reviewed regularly, and we are confident that the improvements being made will further enhance the experience of our residents and their families.

We would like to thank our residents, relatives and team members for their continued support as we move forward on this journey of improvement. As part of this journey we would like to introduce our new Home Manager Beverley Davies.
