Residential Care in Colney
Residential Care
Living independently with a little extra help.
Why choose residential care?
Knowing that you or your loved one has immediate access to carers, at any time of day is one of the biggest reasons for moving into residential care. You can live as independently as you wish when staying in a residential care home, but with a little helping hand when you need us. This can include managing your medication, getting dressed, or assisting you in a hobby.
In addition to 24/7 care, we have a huge variety of activities on offer for residents, keeping them both physically and mentally active. Activities range from garden activities sit-down dancing, and varied crafts. Becoming a resident means becoming part of a community, where there’s always something to do.

Is residential care for you?
You may be unsure of the differences between the types of care on offer in a care home. Residential care is suited for those who need a little extra help from time to time but are still mobile and live a relatively independent lifestyle.
Residential care provides company to those who would otherwise be living on their own and may be suffering from isolation and loneliness. It also gives you and your loved ones the reassurance that qualified carers are on hand if needed.
