Residential Care
Strictly speaking residential care is for frail older people whose needs are low – people who do not require nursing care or specialist care for people living with dementia, for example, but who might need help with washing, dressing and other daily living activities. Confusingly, however, many organisations will use ‘residential care’ to describe homes offering most services such as nursing care or specialised care for younger adults.
The activity programmes provided by our care teams are tailored to meet peoples residential care needs and capabilities – and are thoroughly enjoyed! These include gardening, baking, outings, gentle exercise, pet care and life-skills work. Other specialist activities such as reminiscence therapy, music therapy and complimentary therapies are also a part of our activities programmes.

Every single member of our team – from each carer we train through to every manager and support staff behind the scenes – is trained in dementia.

Respite Care
When you’re in a need of a break, we’re here to help
Everybody needs some time for themselves, even more so when they care for someone else. This is where respite care can be integral to you and your carer’s routine.
Whether it’s covering a two-week holiday, a short break or urgently because of sickness, we’re here when you need us to offer one-to-one care from trained, qualified professionals.
What is respite care?
Respite care is a temporary care arrangement, often one to two weeks, which offers rest or relief to primary carers.
Caring for another person can be physically and mentally demanding, and much more than purely handling the day-to-day tasks. Especially when caring for long periods at a time, the emotional strain can take its toll. Respite care is there to provide you with a break while still ensuring your loved ones care needs are met.
