Care homes and nursing homes

Considering a care home for yourself or a loved one can be a significant decision.

Within this section, you'll find information about care homes and nursing homes, all aimed at promoting a sense of dignity and allowing you to live life to the fullest.

Care homes are residential facilities that provide varying levels of support for adults who need assistance with daily living activities (ADLs) but don't require constant medical care. Care homes offer a comfortable and secure environment with support for tasks like bathing, dressing, and medication reminders. They can be a good option for individuals seeking to maintain a degree of independence with some assistance.

Nursing homes provide a higher level of medical care and support for individuals with complex health needs. These facilities have qualified healthcare professionals on-site 24/7 to administer medication, manage medical conditions, and ensure residents' well-being. If you or your loved one requires ongoing medical attention, a nursing home might be the most suitable option.
