Sheltered accommodation provides homes designed to meet older people's needs. Bathrooms and kitchens are more accessible for residents who may have mobility problems. In addition, sheltered housing will often contain other aids such as wider doors, ramps, lower steps etc, which will help residents maintain an independent lifestyle.

Sheltered accommodation can offer:

• An on-site Scheme Manager and an emergency alarm system.

This type of scheme offers self-contained apartments, often with shared facilities including a common room, laundry, guest room and communal kitchen.

• No on-site Scheme Manager, but an emergency alarm system.

These schemes are usually small groups of self-contained apartments.

The Scheme Manager

The Scheme Manager is employed to provide unobtrusive support to residents and is available to answer queries, and provide any help or advice.

The Scheme Manager will not provide any medical, nursing or cleaning services for individual residents, but will assist in arranging for these services to be provided by other bodies such as Social Services.
