Buchanan Court

Welcome to Buchanan Court

Buchanan Court is a luxurious and contemporary home that offers a full range of quality, personalised care.

The experienced team at our Harrow, Greater London care home provide residential and nursing care, compassionate end-of-life care, as well as specialist care for people living with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia.

We’re also here to support you with short-term respite stays. With bookings available from a minimum of just two weeks, respite stays are perfect for older people who need extra support following an operation or illness, or while their regular carer takes a well-earned break.

Inside our 80-bedroom care home, there’s lots going on. As well as having a range of luxury facilities to enjoy, residents can take part in activities such as exercise classes and games. And of course, we all love relaxing in the beautiful garden when the weather’s nice too.

We pride ourselves on the transparency of our care quality and fee information - ensuring you can trust us to care from that very first step.

What others have to say

Here are just some of the comments we’ve received from family, friends and residents at Buchanan Court care home.

My loved one has dementia and it is quite aggressive… they are so patient and encouraging with her… they work persistently in supporting her changing needs. They try to keep her active by playing music and dancing with her, they are very generous with their time and attention. Every single meal requires effort on their part, encouraging her to eat something, yet every day they persist patiently, with such understanding and compassion.

Relative of a resident, March 2024

My loved one is assigned to a particular key worker and this carer knows her very well, every aspect of her life... what she wants, what she likes or dislikes, and more personal elements of her life. If anything occurs or if any concerns arise, this carer communicates them to us directly... we are kept involved in all aspects of care and we feel supported by both management and carers alike.

Relative of a resident, March 2024

They are very resident-centric, caring for each resident according to their individual capabilities and needs, it's not a one-size-fits-all kind of a place.

Relative of a resident, March 2024

The care assistants and nursing staff are very friendly and helpful - they went above what they needed to.

Relative of a resident, August 2023

I am happy with the quality of care and the staffing. They're trained to look after people with dementia and the there is a good consistency of care.
