Which care homes in Fareham appear in this listing?

Thirty four residential care homes in Fareham are gathered here, every one registered with the Care Quality Commission. They include Broadview, Stokewood, The Avenue Care Home, Segensworth Road, Titchfield Lodge, Cordelia House Ltd and Willow Tree Lodge, along with smaller homes supporting only a few residents. Each provider has a profile setting out the current rating with a link to the inspection report behind it. Work through the ones that match your location and the support your relative needs.

What is worth asking on a visit to a Fareham care home?

Ask how many carers are on duty during the day and overnight, how long they have worked at the home and how much agency cover is used, because continuity is visible in the care people receive. Ask who writes the care plan, how often it is reviewed and whether relatives are invited into that review. Ask how the home handles a decline in health, how a doctor is arranged and what would make it say a person's needs could no longer be met. Ask to stay for a meal and to speak with a relative of a current resident.

How does a residential care home differ from a nursing home?

A residential care home offers accommodation with help for daily living such as washing, dressing, meals, medication and company, with care staff available at all hours. A nursing home provides that and also has registered nurses on site, which is what clinical needs such as complex wound care or an unstable long term condition require. Every home in this Fareham listing is registered for residential care rather than nursing. Where an assessment identifies nursing needs, ask about homes registered to deliver nursing instead.

Can Hampshire County Council pay towards a placement?

It can, where a care needs assessment identifies eligible needs and a financial assessment shows the person qualifies for help with the cost. Income, savings and any property are taken into account when the council calculates a contribution. Funding extends up to the rate set for the assessed level of need, so a home charging above that usually requires a third party contribution from family. Ask for the calculation and the offer in writing before you commit to a home.

How do I arrange a care needs assessment in Fareham?

Contact the adult social care team at Hampshire County Council and ask for an assessment for yourself or the person you look after. It is free and open to anyone who appears to need care, whatever their savings, so it is worth requesting even when you expect to pay privately. The assessment can happen at home or on a hospital ward, and a short note about what a difficult week involves helps the assessor understand the situation. Ask for the written outcome when the assessment is finished.

How early should we begin looking at homes in Fareham?

Begin as soon as it is clear that arrangements at home are no longer holding, rather than waiting for an admission to set the timetable. Homes here with a strong reputation can hold waiting lists, and a discharge can shrink the decision to a matter of days. Several weeks of lead time allows for repeat visits, a careful read of the inspection reports and an assessment done without pressure. If time is already short, narrow the field by rating and location and go to see the strongest options at once.

What a residential care home in Fareham actually provides

The phrase residential care covers a specific thing: a permanent home with personal care attached. Staff are on duty at every hour to help with washing, dressing, eating, medication and moving about, meals are provided, and there is company and structure to the day. It stops short of nursing delivered on site by a registered nurse, which requires a differently registered home. Knowing where that line falls is what stops a family touring homes that could never take the person in the first place.

Reading the ratings across the thirty four homes

All of the homes on this page are registered with and inspected by the Care Quality Commission. Broadview currently holds an Outstanding rating. Twenty seven are rated Good, among them Stokewood, Redlands Lane, White Hart House, The RedHouse Care Home, The Fernes, Woodland Court Residential Home and Willow Tree Lodge. Five carry a rating of Requires Improvement, including Solent Lodge, Florence Court Care Home and Winscombe Care Home. One, Arlo House, has not yet been rated, which ordinarily means registration was too recent for an inspection. Those five words stand in for a much longer document, and the document is the useful part. It grades safety, effectiveness, care, responsiveness and leadership one by one, so you can see whether a shortfall touched the thing your relative most depends on or something peripheral to them.

What to watch for on the day you visit

Arrange to see homes when they are busy rather than mid afternoon, and pay less attention to the furnishings than to the people. Do staff use residents' names without checking a chart. Does anyone look bored. Ask how many carers are on shift by day and by night, how long they have worked there, and how often agency staff fill the gaps. Ask who writes the care plan and how families are drawn into reviewing it. Where a home sits below Good, ask what has changed since the inspector left and ask to see the plan they wrote in response.

Assessments, funding and fees in Fareham

Two processes determine how a placement is paid for, and starting them late is the most common reason a family finds itself cornered into a quick decision.

The care needs assessment

A care needs assessment costs nothing and is open to anyone who appears to need care and support, with no savings threshold attached. Hampshire County Council carries out that assessment for people living in Fareham and decides which needs are eligible for funded support. The assessor works through daily living, mobility, medication and safety, and asks what the person wants their life to look like, then writes up the eligible needs. Ask for a copy of that write up, because homes ask about it and any subsequent funding decision is grounded in it.

Fees, contributions and the questions to ask about money

A financial assessment considers income, savings and property to establish what the person pays. Where the council contributes, it funds up to the rate it has set for the assessed level of need, so a family drawn to a home charging more may be asked for a third party contribution. Anyone paying privately contracts with the home directly, and fees in Fareham move with the room, the support required and any specialist provision. Ask for a written fee schedule, check what falls outside the weekly rate, and find out how much notice the home gives before fees change.
