Assisted living
For those who need more support
PURPOSE-BUILT FOR CONFIDENCE, CARE AND COMMUNITY
The Kent Parks proposal offers personalised living options for individuals who require extra support, featuring 72 assisted living apartments that promote safety, comfort, and daily independence.
Thoughtfully designed assisted living
MAXIMISING COMFORT, LIGHT AND PRIVATE OUTDOOR SPACE
The assisted living building is located near to the care home, reflecting the close operational relationship between the two facilities and supporting a seamless approach to continuing care. This building rises to two and three storeys and, like the care home, adopts an ‘L’-shaped plan.
Assisted living apartments
DESIGNED FOR COMFORT INDEPENDENCE AND PRACTICAL LIVING
Features include:
- Floor to ceiling windows to ensure bright interiors and optimum views
- Space for large wardrobes and bulky storage – perfect for those downsizing
- A second bedroom which can be used by couples who prefer to sleep separately, as an overnight guest/carers room, or as a study or hobby room
- A bathroom with accessible shower and separate WC
- The specification and design of fixtures and fittings will consider the principles of ageing in place to ensure the built environment supports independence e.g. induction hobs
- Bathroom/shower areas are future proofed with pattresses/ply lined walls to enable grab rails to be fitted if needed
- Ground floor patios or first floor balconies, all sized to accommodate a table and two chairs
- The average internal floor area is approximately 54m2
