Care Provider Wins Contract For Two Extra Care Housing Services In St Helens

Community care provider Radis Community Care is expanding even further across England and Wales with a further two additions based in St Helens, adding to its extensive northern offerings.

The two extra care housing services offer people an alternative to conventional residential care, and provide independence and the flexibility of carers who are on site 24/7.

Teaming up with various housing providers, the services aim to help residents retain as much independence and control over their life as possible.

And, as part of its latest acquisition, Radis Community Care has won the contract of two impressive services; Reeve Court Retirement Village and Heald Farm Court.

Supporting residents over the age of 55, Reeve Court Retirement Village is made up of 206 one and two bedroom flats and is home to more than 250 residents.

As a retirement village, Reeve Court has on-site care staff that are available 24/7, as well as a careline alarm service, prioritising the safety and security of residents.

Facilities include a lounge, laundry room, hobby and activities rooms, a bistro, a shop and a salon as well as a library, IT suite and an impressive spa, pool and steam room.

The site is entirely accessible by wheelchair, with local transport and amenities also in close proximity. All of this, combined with a dedicated housekeeping team ensures that all residents have a comfortable living environment without having to worry about the stress of maintaining a home.

Similarly, Heald Farm Court also offers a variety of facilities, including a well-maintained garden and regular social activities.

Heald Farm Court is a £14 million development, with many of its 86 two-bedroom apartments having their own balcony, terrace or garden. As well as this, the development benefits from having three transitional flats supporting people who have been in hospital or respite and are unable to return home.

Surrounded by a health and wellbeing centre and beautifully landscaped gardens, Heald Farm Court is just a short walk from the local town centre.

Sarah Brown, regional manager at Radis Community Care said of the exciting contract wins:
“We’re proud to be able to provide services to those who need it in St Helens and to add two more fantastic services to our care offering.”

“Both services bring staff that are passionate about providing the highest standard of care, and we’re excited to be working with a new council and community.”
