Retirement specialist McCarthy & Stone is urging anyone over the age of 70, who might benefit from living in a lower maintenance property, or a little extra assistance with day to day life, to visit its Malpas Court development in Northallerton to find out more about how Assisted Living could offer the solution.
By bridging the gap between conventional retirement developments and residential care, Malpas Court offers a real alternative for retirees who want to maintain their independence but would appreciate the peace of mind and sense of security that a helping hand can offer.
Fiona Brooks, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for McCarthy & Stone, commented: "One of the most common reasons people look to move in later life is because their existing properties have become too much work for them to manage. However, because Assisted Living apartments are brand new, residents can forget about costly maintenance and repair jobs, plus with staff on site 24 hours a day, they can also rest assured that assistance is always on hand should they ever need it.
"Like our conventional Retirement Living developments, Assisted Living still offers facilities like a secure entry system, residents' lounge, guest suite, and a laundry room, however it also provides flexible support services that can be tailored to meet the changing needs of residents, either on a short or longer term basis."
Each of the 50 carefully designed properties at Malpas Court are fully wheelchair accessible, and provide a number of thoughtful features to make managing a home easier. These include a level access shower, separate bath, grab rails, open plan lounge and dining room and electrically operated windows.
For a small additional charge, residents can also benefit from a waitress service restaurant that offers a hot meal 365 days a year, and provides the perfect setting in which to enjoy socialising with other like-minded individuals.
To find out more about Assisted Living at Malpas Court visit the show complex, open daily from 10.30am until 5pm.
