Day Care

It’s not just our full-time residents who can benefit from the care, comfort and companionship provided at Hartford Care homes. We offer a flexible range of elderly day care options, allowing you or your loved one to visit us for a day, or even several days a week.

A warm welcome every visit

All our Day Guests receive a warm welcome and are treated as part of the ‘Hartford Care Family’, enjoying our facilities and services on the days they visit.

Originally introduced to bridge the gap between independent living at home and moving into permanent residential care, our elderly day care service provides reassurance that needs, feelings and wishes remain paramount.

Flexible day care

Care home day care is also a wonderful opportunity to meet new people in similar situations and experience first-hand what life is like in our nurturing homes. Visits can be tailored to suit individual needs.
