Residential care - we provide residential care to those who do not need 24-hour nursing care but are unable to live independently. If you are perhaps struggling with cooking your meals or doing your laundry or would just benefit from being around like-minded people in a luxurious environment. Nursing care - for those with complex healthcare needs which cannot be provided for at home due to requiring specialist 24-hour care. This includes rehabilitative care (those who have suffered a stroke) or conditions such as Parkinson's, motor neurone disease or multiple schlerosis. Dementia care - All Baycroft homes specialise in caring for those residents with either early onset dementia or those at the later stages of the illness. Residents are looked after in safe, caring environments where all our staff are specifically trained to be able to manage the changing needs. All our homes will have a dedicated floor or cluster for resident's living with the later stages of dementia. These areas are designed against Stirling University's dementia design audit tool to ensure the environment and architecture is as dementia friendly as possible. Respite care - this option is available if you have recently spent some time in hospital and are not quite ready to return back home quite yet, or to provide a crucial break for your existing carer.

Costs will start at £1300 per week. The weekly charge will depend on your room type and the level of care you require

This cost includes all of your care, food, facilities and activities. Anything else such as a visit from the physiotherapist, this will be costed on an individual basis.
