Assisted living (also known as extra-care housing) offers more support than sheltered housing but still allows you to live independently. We provide a self-contained flat, with your own front door, but staff are usually available up to 24 hours per day to provide personal care and support services. These are tailored to the needs of the tenant and can include help with washing, dressing, going to the toilet and taking medication. Domestic help, such as shopping and laundry, and meals may also be provided.
