Connect to Support Hampshire Care Guide 2020/21 Manage your care and wellbeing, stay independent and connect to your community www.carechoices.co.uk here People Matter is more than just a tag line. It is an ethos upon which our entire Worganisation is built. At Brookvale Healthcare people matter most, whether they be our residents, their families, or our staff. This focus on people, treating them with care, compassion and kindness is what allows all our care homes to feel like your home. With over 30 years’ experience delivering care at the highest level, both compassionately and technologically, Brookvale Healthcare is a leader in providing care for older people in Hampshire. Within our care homes, we are able to support people needing just a little TLC to those who require much more intensive support because of their physical needs, mental health need, or because they are now requiring palliative care.
