Health & Care
Moving into a care home is a big step for anyone to take when they have been used to running their own household and looking after themselves. It often follows on from a traumatic event, such as being bereaved or suffering an injury which may heal well enough but rob a person of their confidence for managing alone. It may also follow the onset of dementia, making it increasingly risky for them to continue staying in their own home.
Happily, there are some remarkable residential homes offering exemplary care and accommodation to suit people’s differing needs. They include those run by our advertisers, who provide friendly, comfortable environments where every resident is treated as an individual.

Residents find it extremely reassuring to know that there are caring professionals around 24/7 to assist with personal care, dementia care, even palliative care, liaising as appropriate with local nurses, doctors and other medical services.
They often find a new lease of life as they find themselves in the good company of staff, visitors and other residents, enjoying a lively programme of activities personalised to their own preferences.
It can be a huge relief to people in declining health to be able to hand over the reins of responsibility for things like cleaning, food preparation, laundry, shopping and dealing an assortment of daily dramas.
Check out the websites to see how our advertisers can change life for the better for you or your older relatives.
