What is Residential Care?

Residential care is designed to provide support for individuals who no longer feel comfortable or safe living alone but do not require full-time nursing care. At its core, residential care offers a blend of professional assistance and a homely environment where residents can thrive socially and emotionally.

In a residential care setting, residents receive help with daily activities such as dressing, personal care, and meals, while enjoying the companionship of others and the freedom to pursue their own interests. This type of care focuses on promoting independence while ensuring safety and comfort, giving families peace of mind knowing their loved ones are well cared for.

Residential Care FAQs

Residential care is the best solution for those who require full-time accommodation and around-the-clock personal care and assistance. It is also a great option for those who would benefit from a group living setting. Similar to residential care, nursing care also provides 24/7 care and support but it is designed to provide medical care from registered nurses who can administer medication and medical treatment. Please note Etive House does not currently offer nursing care.
