FAQ's - frequently asked questions
1. What is a residential care home?
A residential care home provides accommodation and 24-hour personal care for elderly people who may need help with daily activities such as washing, dressing, eating, and taking medication. Staff are on hand to support residents’ personal needs but medical care is not typically provided on site.
2. What is the difference between a residential care home and a nursing home?
Residential care homes offer personal care, while nursing homes provide both personal care and nursing care by qualified nurses for individuals with more complex health needs.
3. How do I know if my relative needs residential care?
Signs include increasing difficulty with daily living tasks, frequent falls, loneliness, or medical professionals advising that home care is no longer safe or sufficient.
4. What is the Care Quality Commission (CQC)?
The CQC is the independent regulator of health and social care in England. It inspects and rates care homes based on safety, effectiveness, responsiveness, and leadership.
5. Who pays for care home fees?
Funding depends on income and assets. If the person has savings over £23,250 (in England), they usually pay in full. Below that, the local authority may contribute. Some may qualify for NHS Continuing Healthcare funding.
6. How do I choose the right care home?
Visit several homes, speak with staff and residents, check CQC (Care Quality Commission) ratings, and consider location, facilities, activities, meals, and the overall atmosphere.
7. Can residents have visitors in care homes?
Yes, most care homes encourage regular visits. Some may have set visiting hours or require booking in advance, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic.
8. Can residents bring personal belongings or furniture?
Yes, we encourage residents to personalise their rooms with familiar items like photos, furniture, and decorations to make it feel more like home.
9. What happens if a resident's needs change?
If care needs increase, the home may reassess and adapt support. If more specialist or nursing care is required, a move to a different facility might be necessary, and this is usually planned with the family.
