About James Dixon Court
James Dixon Court provides residential care and respite support for adults with dementia, learning disabilities, mental health needs and physical disabilities. The service forms part of New Directions’ adult social care provision for Sefton, covering both longer-term placements and shorter stays.
Respite can support people after hospital discharge, families who usually provide care at home or adults who need a temporary change of setting. The service also accommodates dietary needs through its kitchen team and supports daily living in a residential environment. Residential care and respite support make James Dixon Court useful for families comparing longer-term accommodation with a shorter stay following illness, changing needs or carer pressure.
