About
Hawkinge House in Folkestone, Kent, is run by Deer Capital and has 60 registered beds. Its Proactive Assessment Unit takes NHS patients who no longer need hospital care but still benefit from clinical observation, assessment and planning for their next steps. Stays may lead to a return home, a move to continued care, or a transfer to one of the home's long-term communities.
Nursing care is available 24 hours a day, with nurse-led monitoring, medication reviews, gentle rehabilitation and support for conditions such as dementia and frailty. Each patient has a private en-suite room and can use in-house physiotherapy and occupational therapy, with a hydrotherapy pool and gym planned. The home sits in the Kent Downs, about 3 miles from Folkestone town centre.
