Percentages are CQC scores from its newer way of assessing homes. ?
CQC scored 33 standards: 28 good, 5 exceptional. Use “See the breakdown” on each key question for its standards. ?
CQC hasn't inspected this home for more than 5 years. It re-inspects based on risk, so an old rating doesn't count against a home on this site, but it may not reflect the home today. ?
St Bonaventures is an independent 7-bed residential care home in Manchester, registered with CQC under its own name. Its CQC registration covers older people and people with a learning disability or autism. That is smaller than most homes in Manchester, where the typical home has 21 beds.
Of the 5 closest rated homes, none is rated above it. The kitchen has a food hygiene rating of 5 (very good), from December 2024. 87% of homes in Manchester also score 5. In Manchester, 82% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%).
Its CQC rating, from February 2026, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. That matches its previous rating, from March 2018. Ratings in Manchester are typically about 4 years old, which makes this one newer than most. CQC scored 33 standards: 5 exceptional and the rest good.
