A ‘groundbreaking’ new care home for young people with life-limiting conditions and complex needs has been launched. Based in Heaton Moor, Stockport, it aims to provide a comfortable and supportive living environment where residents ‘thrive and experience the joys of everyday life’
Converted from two-semi detached houses, 92 Barcicroft Road, boasts six bedrooms, a communal dining room and a lounge. There is also a special multi-sensory room, a bed lift, large shower room and bathroom. It is operated by Francis House Families Ltd and staffed by a team of highly trained professionals dedicated to providing the highest quality of care to every resident.
All those who come to live at Number 92- deliberately given an ordinary address to avoid sounding institutionalised - will continue to receive respite care and symptom control at Francis House Hospice. The majority will have taken up permanent residence by next month.
