Quantum Care Home, Letchworth

http://www.quantumcare.co.uk/news.php?pageid=8232

Constructed on a brownfield site, formerly occupied by Lannock School, the part three-storey residential facility replaces two existing homes in the Quantum Care portfolio, providing modern and thoughtfully designed accommodation for residents with a broad range of care requirements. Typical of all Quantum Care developments, the new home is specially designed to enable older people to retain their independence, within a framework of support for individual requirements.

Each of the 75 rooms features en-suite shower facilities and communal areas have been carefully designed to provide choice for residents to socialise or find a quiet space for personal reflection. ISG will create a communal plaza area, which includes a Best Friends Café, hairdressing salon and mini shopping area, which are open to residents, family and friends.

The accommodation is fully accessible for residents with physical disabilities and the design, decoration and layout of the home has been specifically developed to support the requirements of residents with dementia. The care home incorporates an advanced wireless nurse alert system that operates via pagers and DECT telephones, avoiding the need for buzzers that can disturb other residents.
