Infection control and the safety of both residents and staff often requires quarantine measures and the isolation of care home residents.

Being so close to the town centre allows us to make the most of local shops, restaurants and attractions. Erith is a very wheelchair-friendly town and we often walk or take the bus for trips to the cinema or lunch in one of the many cafes and restaurants.
