Care type

Our friendly residential care is a non-nurse led service, enabling you to live as independently as possible. We attend to your individual wishes so you can focus on enjoyment without worrying about issues that can become difficult in later life.

We give access to nurses who can cater for many complex conditions within the comfort and relaxing environment of the home. Our nursing capability ensures you are continually in safe hands with full respect for your dignity and privacy.

We have a deep understanding of dementia and extensive experience caring for families affected. We build our homes and train our team to provide the breadth of capability to create a safe, comfortable and stimulating environment.

The same care enjoyed by our long-term residents is also available as a short-term option. For example, you may want the chance to relax and recuperate after a hospital stay or you or your carer may simply want a break from the daily routine.
