weeklyResidential care homes offer support for everyday tasks when you're unable to live on your own and you don't need specialist nursing care. From help with washing, dressing and medication, residential care offers round-the-clock support for residents.
Even if you don't require nursing care support, all our residential homes will be in regular contact with local GPs, physiotherapists and dentists who can support you.
We understand that moving into a residential care home is a huge change, so let our team of care experts find the right home for you.
Depending on your location and any additional care needs, residential care can vary in cost. The average cost of residential care across the UK is:
England - £681
Scotland - £704
Wales - £607
Northern Ireland - £640
UK - £704
Residential care homes provide all residents with round-the-clock support for everyday tasks, including washing, dressing and mobility. The cost of care homes can be overwhelming, so our care experts are here to help. You may also be entitled to support from your local authority - you can check via a financial assessment.
All our residential care homes offer a variety of facilities and activities to keep you or your loved one both mentally and physically stimulated. From 24/7 personalised care and support to freshly prepared meals, our residential care provides all residents with a home-from-home environment.
You can filter by facilities available in our residential care homes to suit your personal needs. Whether you'd like your new home to have a library, meditation area or cinema room, there's something for everyone!
All our homes offer a variety of regular care home activities - often run by an activities coordinator - to boost your physical health and wellbeing, including exercise classes, arts and crafts, and music therapy.
Alternatively, if you're looking for additional support, we have dementia care homes and nursing care homes available.
Residential care provides a variety of support to make day-to-day tasks easier in a care home, including personal care, help with dressing and medication administration. The type of residential care needs will vary for every resident, as some may require additional mobility support and help with eating meals.
Nursing care homes and residential care homes are very similar. The main difference between a care home and a nursing home is that nursing homes have qualified nurses and specially-trained care assistants on-hand to provide 24/7 support to residents. Both nursing and residential homes offer regular activities and support for residents with washing, eating, and taking medicine.
Working in a residential care home means you will be supporting residents with all aspects of their day. From help with personal care to supporting them at mealtimes, each day will be varied. You will also support their wellbeing through care home activities and getting to know each resident. Working with residents is a very rewarding role, as you'll be making a huge difference to people's lives every day.
