Show more "Our LiveSmart homes are for people over the age of 55 Each development has its own manager. It's their job to make sure the environment is safe and secure, however, they don't provide support services, nursing or home care. On some schemes the managers are based on-site and on others, they visit at set times. Barkway Court can give you the comfort of a communal living environment and all homes have an alarm system which is monitored 24/7." Show lessMain Facts
