Extra care housing

Living in your own self-contained, fully accessible and modern home enables you to maintain your independence whilst benefitting from optional, bespoke care and support packages.

The benefits of living in extra care housing include:

• The privacy and security of your own home
• A dedicated Housing and Care or Housing Manager
• On-site care team 24/7
• A 24-hour emergency alarm for peace of mind
• An impressive range of communal facilities

Life in extra care housing

Your independence

You can continue to enjoy the privacy of your own self-contained property but have full access to a wide range of communal facilities to ensure you continue to live an active and independent lifestyle.

On-site care and support

The great advantage of extra care housing is that a care team is on site 24/7 to provide you with care whether it is planned or in an emergency.

Any care and support you need will be built around you and delivered by our team of professional care staff. If you live with a partner who has additional care needs this can also be accommodated allowing you to continue to live together.

Our partnerships

Agincare and our partners have successfully worked together to develop a truly joint approach to providing extra care services. Our partners include local authorities and independent housing organisations.

We are committed to providing a community hub and this is evident at our Brooke Mead extra scheme:

Agincare showed real commitment and flexibility at the beginning of this contract in working together to ensure that all areas run effectively.

 

Feedback from the tenants at Brooke Mead has been positive and the ethos to keep tenants living for as long as possible in the community is evident. Agincare along with the City Councils housing staff have made excellent links with community initiatives.
