The Sandringham campus consists of Anita Dorfman House and Pears Court providing brand new facilities and quality care and retirement living in a modern, Jewish environment. Wolfson Assisted Living is situated on the top floor of Anita Dorfman and consists of dedicated one room flats for individuals and couples who want residential care with more room and kitchen facilities than a regular care home bedroom.
