Eye Tests for Care Home Residents
We visit your care home and test ALL residents in one scheduled visit. Zero admin for your staff. CQC documentation included.
Call for Block Contract Quote⚠️ Did your current provider stop group testing?
National providers like OutsideClinic have stopped group eye clinics — they now only test individual residents booked by next of kin. This creates massive admin burden for your staff and leaves residents untested. We still offer full-coverage block contracts. Your residents deserve better.
Why Care Homes Choose Templeman
All Residents Tested
We'll test every resident in one scheduled visit — no chasing next of kin, no gaps, no untested residents.
