We offer accommodation, care and services including ethnic specific and dementia secure areas.
Care services are staffed by a team of professional nursing, personal care and therapy specialists who encourage a caring and friendly environment. Care is provided to all residents with dignity and respect. The level of care required by each resident will be assessed prior to entry and then closely monitored on an on-going basis. Our focus is on individual care to provide the best lifestyle and health outcomes for each resident.
Ageing in Place is advocated where possible.
