Welcome Carewatch Mary Barfield House

Assisted living solutions to support independence

We have vast experience in providing support for people in environments where disabilities, frailty or health needs make ordinary housing unsuitable but where there is not a need or want to move to longterm residential care or nursing homes. These environments have design features and support services available to support independent living.

We provide supported living solutions in Hitchin, Letchworth, Baldock and Royston.

We recognise the importance of combining the ability for self-care and independent living with the added benefit of being able to access and engage in community activities. By integrating housing, health and social care needs this approach can:

• enhance general health and well being;
• reduce the need for hospital admission;
• provide greater social activity opportunities for residents and the wider community;
• reduce loneliness, isolation, and depression;
• protect individual rights to remain private when they choose.

Person centred solutions

Our services are tailored to meet individual needs, and focus on people’s strengths and capabilities with a strong emphasis on making links in the wider community. Our teams encourage and support people to do as much as they can for themselves - doing tasks with people, rather than for them. We provide person centred support focussing on outcomes that support personal goals and reablement for a wide range of people.

This environment promotes a personal sense of wellbeing, which not only enables those we support to get the best out of life, but also gives reassurance and peace of mind to their family and friends.
