Continuing Health & Nursing Care
Over the next twelve months we are working in partnership with local authorities to develop residential services for those individuals who will require 'Continuing Health Care' on discharge from hospital and acute settings.
The locality of our homes will allow for easy access to local community facilities, enabling clients to be present and actively participate in their local community.
Our services will provide residential accommodation for varying lengths of stay; long-term, short-term, respite and periods of assessment are catered for.
