Based at Cedar House in Sandbrook Business Park, they support people across Rochdale town centre, Heywood, Littleborough, Milnrow, Wardle, Norden, Whitworth, Castleton, Spotland, Bamford, Shaw and Royton (postcodes OL10, OL11, OL12, OL15, OL16 and surrounding areas).
Care services include visiting care tailored to individual routines, live-in care for round-the-clock support, and respite care when family carers need time to rest. The team helps with personal care, medication reminders, meal preparation, dementia support, and genuine companionship.
Routes believes in honest conversations from the start. They offer free home assessments, clear pricing with no surprises, and care plans shaped around what matters most to each person. All carers are directly employed, fully vetted, and many live in the communities they serve.
When care is needed urgently, assessments can usually happen within 24-48 hours. The team works alongside local GPs and healthcare services to provide joined-up support.

Your carers were absolutely amazing in the care I witnessed for my poorly Uncle. They made his last days on this earth comfortable and their compassion and empathy is to be commended. My Aunty would have struggled without your service which also meant that my Uncle could stay at home with loved ones surrounding him in his own environment. I flew from Australia to assist my family at this time and I met some of your friendly staff.
I am truly thankful for the support that you provided for my UK family in their hardest moments.

When the carer's first came from Routes in mid October 25 they instantly put my mind at ease ,after trying to look after my lovely husband ( who was very ill 24/7 ) i was beginning to think that I would have to go back on my promise to keep him at home because I could not manage the care he needed any more . Every one of the carer's who came 3 time's a day until boxing day night were, without exception absolutely brilliant , really caring professional people for whom nothing was too much trouble I thank them all from the bottom of my heart. .

Overall Experience
All the carers were kind and thoughtful. Nothing was ever too much trouble. We never felt they were rushing. My husband enjoyed their visits. I would recommend this service to anyone requiring home care.
