What is Residential Care?

Residential care provides a safe, structured environment for people who find it difficult to manage at home alone. This type of care offers personal support with tasks like bathing, dressing, moving around and eating, alongside practical help and a vibrant social life. Unlike nursing care, residential care does not include regular medical care from nurses but does provide support from experienced carers who are always nearby.

This style of living allows residents to retain as much independence as possible, with reassurance that help is available when needed. For many, residential care brings relief from the worries of household management and grants peace of mind to their families.

Residential Care FAQs

Residential care covers 24-hour support with daily living, meals, personal care, medication reminders, laundry, mobility and housekeeping.

Residential care is ideal for those who require permanent accommodation and would benefit from the option of having around-the-clock support with personal care and some medical needs. It is also great for those who would benefit from group living. Nursing care also provides 24-hour care and support but also includes additional help from registered nurses who are accessible to administer medication and medical treatment at all hours of the day and night.

Our care professionals regularly monitor and assess resident care plans.
