Personalised Elderly Care to Suit Individual Needs

We provide the following forms of care:

• Long stay Residential and Dementia care

• Day care

We specialise in addressing the needs of individuals who are elderly and/or suffering from dementia, providing a personalised care plan for every resident to ensure their particular needs are met in full.

We also offer respite care facilities, so if you would like to use the service for a short period of time, whether as a one-off or from time to time as needed, we can accommodate you.

Moving In Process

Once you have made the decision that you would like to come and join us, we will conduct an initial assessment to ensure that we fully understand your situation, what support you require, and how we can best provide the care you need.  This assessment can be carried out at your own home, or in hospital, if required.

Once we know how we can best support you, you will then have the enjoyable task of selecting your room.  Having confirmed and agreed the fees, we can complete the required paperwork the same day if necessary, and you can usually move in as soon as this is signed. 

In accordance with the Jasmine Values we aim to be as upfront and transparent about all fees (current and future), terms and conditions as possible.  We believe our standard terms and conditions are amongst the fairest in the industry, and we ensure they are signed primarily to reassure and protect our residents.
