About Avondale Care Home
Avondale Care Home provides residential, nursing, dementia and respite care for older people and younger adults. Short-term stays can support convalescence, holiday cover or recovery after illness, while longer-term care is available for people who need continuing support.
Respite stays start from one week and can be tailored to individual circumstances, with a pre-admission assessment used to establish the appropriate level of care. The home also welcomes visits before a decision is made, giving families the opportunity to discuss care needs and arrangements. Avondale is a care home with nursing and includes support for people living with dementia.
