Types of care
Whatever care you need, we can help
We have homes to suit all care requirements and personal needs. Whether you’re looking for temporary or long term care, nursing or residential care, or specialist assistance for conditions like dementia.
Residential care
Our residential care homes offer support for those who are finding it hard to cope at home without assistance.
Nursing care
Residential care with additional around-the-clock nursing support. Suitable for those with conditions that need closer attention.
Dementia care
We provide two types of dementia care. Residential dementia care provides 24/7 personalised assistance in a care home. Nursing dementia care is for residents who need care from qualified nursing staff.
Respite and short stays
Whether it’s to provide respite for a carer or family member, access day care or to experience life in our care homes before moving in long-term. Everyone is welcome to join for a short-term stay.
Post operation and illness recovery
We offer short-term care for those recovering from an operation, illness or hospital stay. This is often referred to as convalescent care.
Physical disabilities and neurological conditions
Care for adults with neurological conditions such as Parkinson’s, Huntington’s and multiple sclerosis. We also provide care for acquired brain injuries, physical disabilities and learning difficulties.
Palliative care
Respectful and proactive support to residents that need end of life care. We focus on making sure their physical, psychological, social and spiritual needs are met.
Privately-owned retirement housing
Richmond Villages are luxury retirement homes available through Bupa. They give residents comfortable living with the reassurance of help if it’s ever needed.
