Newhaven has provided residential care for older people in Stevenage for over 30 years. We joined Quantum Care in 1992.
Accommodating 40 residents over three floors, the home is spacious and comfortable. Each resident has their own furnished room equipped with a telephone, TV socket and call bell points, but it's also possible for them to add a personal touch by bringing their own belongings (see the section on Valuables). In addition, there are seven lounge-dining areas, specialist bathing and toilet facilities and an enclosed garden which is particularly attractive.
Newhaven is registered to care for those living with dementia and is able to meet a wide range of care needs. Staff are on duty throughout the day and night and local doctors and community nurses will also attend as required.

The vicar calls every Monday and holds occasional services to celebrate religious festivals.
