Liverpool is perhaps best-known as a city of sport and music. The city is famous as the home of the Beatles, and both Liverpool FC and Everton FC. It also has many museums, galleries, historic buildings, contemporary shopping centres and restaurants, and was named European Capital of Culture in 2008. Liverpool\'s Dock Front, which includes the well-known Albert Dock, is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

There is a whole host of care homes to choose from in Liverpool, including care homes with nursing care (or nursing homes), care homes without nursing care (or residential homes) and specialist care homes. You can also choose from private care homes, local authority care homes and homes that are operated by voluntary organisations.

Liverpool\'s residential care homes include Crompton Court (Crompton Street, Kirkdale, Liverpool, Merseyside), which is operated by Southern Cross Healthcare. This purpose-built, care home in Liverpool\'s Vauxhall district has 34 places, and each of its bedrooms is en-suite. There are several communal rooms, including a conservatory, and there are also gardens to the front and rear of the home. The care home is well-equipped for people who have a physical disability, and there is a varied programme of activities.

Stonedale Lodge (200 Stonedale Crescent, Croxteth, Liverpool, Merseyside) is a BUPA care home that provides both residential and nursing care. It consists of six purpose-built houses, set in landscaped gardens. Five of the homes offer residential and nursing care, and one specialises in the care of people with dementia. Stonedale Lodge can house up to 180 residents, and all of its rooms are single occupancy. There is a choice of activities available, and the care home is within easy reach of local amenities including a shop, post office, bank, library and chemist. There is also a residents\' committee.
