On this exceptionally well positioned site, Bentleigh Cross has skilfully reflected the Victorian grandeur of the original manor building in the architecture of the three new, adjacent buildings which comprise the 68 meticulously planned one and two bedroom apartments and a modern 40 bedroom nursing home.
The Location
Hascombe Court Apartments are located in the heart of historic Dorcester, the county Town of Dorset. Dorchester offers so much which is unique - it exudes an air of gentility and civility. Most of its period buildings date from the 17th and 18th centuries in the town centre.
A wide range of shops, featuring most high street names such as Boots, Marks & Spencer, W.H. Smith etc occupy character premises whilst the traditional weekly Wednesday Market still flourishes. Winding streets lead to numerous historic buildings, Inns, shopping arcades, restaurants and churches of all denominations. The Corn Exchange hosts a variety of events whilst the Thomas Hardy Leisure Centre provides a broad range of activities.
The Apartments
Hascombe Court Apartments are of exceptional quality, enabling the elderly to maintain an independent lifestyle in their own spacious apartment with the peace of mind that comes from knowing that care, by trained, on site staff is available, if and when, needed both day and night.
The apartments are unusual because of their position in the centre of town, within easy level walk to the main shopping centre and also to the beautiful tree-lined West Walks, gardens and bowling green.
There is a wonderful community spirit throughout the development and, with a range of social activities to be involved in. There is also a full range of additional care, such as bathing, providing a nutritious lunch or shopping, which can be provided on an as and when needed basis. This lifestyle is particularly attractive for couples with varying levels of need.
Close Care Services
The idea of close care living is to enable older people, whether individuals or couples, to retain their independence so as to lead their own lives as much as possible in their own home. However, support is provided in a number of different ways, varying according to their needs, and this support is provided from a nursing home developed on the same site as the close care apartments.
The principal benefits of Close Care:
* Continuing independence and quality of life
* Support with your daily life if and when you need it
* Peace of mind knowing trained caring staff will be with you within minutes in an emergency, day or night
* Full range of additional care and support available by agreement
