Plans for redeveloping The Priory Residential Home
Care home standards have developed enormously over the past decade and both regulators and the care home residents now expect much more space, both in their private living areas and also in the communal facilities. We are therefore pursuing planning permission to completely demolish the existing building and replace it with a new one, specifically designed as a care home. The plan would be to build phase 1 of an adequate size to provide sufficient spaces for the residents of the existing home and once they are moved to this building the existing building would be demolished and phase 2 could then be built.
The key feature of the new home is that residents would be accommodated in Care Suites with their own front door. The suites include personal day space where residents can socialise in privacy with family and friends. However there will also be the same communal lounge space and dining areas as in a traditional care home so that residents can chose to spend time in a group setting for their social or care needs.
Twenty four hour personal care and support will be provided thus offering a home for life and the service can be increased and decreased based on individual needs.
