Whether you or your loved one requires gentle residential support delivered on a daily basis, nursing care for long-term, complex health conditions, or specialist dementia care given by expert carers, there are care homes across this county designed to offer thoughtful, expert-led care.
Homes such as Tegfield House have been modified with older adults in mind and specifically cater to dementia residents and those living with limited mobility. In these homes, you’ll find key features like dementia-friendly layouts and sensory gardens. Other care homes like Winchester Heights provide high-level clinical care for residents living with conditions such as Parkinson’s, and those recovering following a stroke or operation. Many homes maintain regular contact with hospitals such as Southampton General, along with local GPs, therapists and palliative care teams.
A typical day in one of Hampshire’s care homes might include a baking session, a reading class, a gardening club, or gentle Pilates - all tailored to residents’ interests and mobility. Events and excursions are also popular, including trips to New Forest trails or local tearooms, while coastal homes may host beach-themed events and nature walks.
