care homes
Assisted living places
Care homes are residential facilities where elderly or disabled people receive ongoing assistance with daily living.
The term is primarily British, equivalent to American "nursing home" or "assisted living facility." Care homes provide meals, housekeeping, and personal care; some offer specialized medical support: Her father moved into a care home after his stroke.
