Prince Alfred Residential Care Home in Liverpool

The facilities on offer at Prince Alfred include:

• 50 single bedrooms with wash facilities – a comfortable space for you or your loved one to personalise with trinkets from home.
• Light and cosy lounges where residents can socialise, catch up with visiting loved ones, get involved in one of our many activities and more.
• Spacious dining rooms – we gather here to enjoy delicious home-cooked meals, prepared by our on-site catering team.
• Hairdressing salon – we regularly host pampering sessions, allowing our residents to relax and unwind.
• Stunning gardens overlooking Wavertree’s Mystery Park. It’s a wonderful space with seating, planters, and wheelchair-accessible pathways.

We’re passionate about supporting our residents to do what they love most – from rekindling an old hobby to trying something new. It’s part of our commitment to enriching lives.

There’s always something to do at our residential care home in Wavertree, including:

• Gardening club – our residents love growing their produce, from green beans to cauliflower to carrots. They harvest their produce for our chef to use in the kitchen.
• Book club – we enjoy getting lost in a good story, so we started our own club!
• Music sessions – as big music fans, we regularly invite musicians to perform in our care home.
• Animal therapy – visits from our much-loved four-legged friends are always a highlight and help to promote wellbeing – especially amongst our residents living with dementia.
• Pampering afternoons – including hand massages, manicures and haircuts from our visiting mobile hairdresser.
• Visits from local school children – the visits provide intergenerational interaction and foster a sense of connection with the Wavertree community.
• Minibus trips – we have so many lovely places on our doorstep, so we love to visit local parks, community tea dances, lunch clubs and more.

We provide pre-bookable respite care at Prince Alfred. It’s designed to allow family carers to take a short break while knowing their loved one is safe.

Our temporary residents receive the same levels of tailored care as our permanent residents. They can enjoy our facilities and activities too.

It provides the perfect taster of life in a Sanctuary Care home, with many of our temporary residents going on to join us on a full-time basis.

Here, at Sanctuary Care, we’re proud to be a not-for-profit care provider. It means any surplus income goes back into making the care we provide the best it can be.

Our team and residents give our home a warm, welcoming and family-like feel. Some of our staff have been with us for many years, such as our Home Manager, Cheryl, who has been with us for more than 30 years.

Their commitment to care was highlighted in our most recent Care Quality Commission (CQC) report, receiving an ‘Outstanding’ rate for care – the highest rating.

Some of the many wonderful comments from our residents and their families featured in the report included:

• “it’s exceptional here, I don’t believe there is any other place like it.”
• “it’s a vocation, not a job for the staff.”
• “the level of care is beyond my expectations.”

It is common for residents in care homes to contribute to the cost of their care home fees. Some people have the resources to pay for this in full, whilst others make means-tested contributions.

Our weekly fees are individual to each of our residents due to the difference in care requirements and are subject to a pre-admissions assessment.
