If your loved one would like to live somewhere where they can receive help with their personal care, such as washing, dressing and taking medication, a residential care home is likely the right option. A nursing home is the best fit if the individual has medical needs that must be seen to by a registered nurse. Read more about the difference between a care home and a nursing home.
Respite care is available as a short-term care option for older people while their regular carer takes a well-earned break. Respite care can be tailored to each person’s individual needs, whether it be support with washing and dressing, nursing care or dementia care. Our teams can also provide support for those who are recovering from an illness or operation, also known as convalescent care.
