Integrated Retirement Village

Clare House village is located right next door to the Clare House care home, which provides rest home, hospital, dementia, respite and palliative levels of care.

The benefits of living in an integrated village can be significant to a retirement village resident. It provides continuity of care if needs change, and you can still be close to one another if your partner or friend requires more support.

Residents of Clare House Village are eligible for priority entry to Clare House care home.*

*Dependent on bed availability and needs assessment.
