About Southbourne Care Home
Southbourne Care Home supports older adults with residential care, including people living with dementia, physical disabilities and sensory impairments. Flexible respite care is also available, and the home is registered for 27 residents in a sympathetically converted gentleman’s villa beside Cary Park in Babbacombe.
Shared activities, themed events and days out encourage independence and relationships within the wider Beechcroft community. The setting combines modern care facilities with a homely atmosphere, while families can receive updates through the group’s communication channels. Torbay Council funding may contribute subject to its financial and care needs review. Flexible respite care is available alongside longer-term residential support.
