Arranging and funding a care home place in Greenhithe
The money side tends to worry families most, yet it follows a fairly predictable path. Need is established first, the financial position second, and the search for a home becomes much more focused once both are known.
Requesting an assessment of need
Anyone who appears to need care and support has a right to an assessment, whatever their savings. A practitioner considers daily living, mobility, health and risk, and produces a written account of the support required. Assessments are carried out by Kent County Council, which is also responsible for arranging funded support for those who are eligible. Even families who expect to fund a placement themselves benefit from having that independent record.
Help towards the fees
A financial assessment follows and looks at capital, income and property. Where savings fall below the national threshold the authority may contribute towards the weekly fee, and where registered nursing is required a separate NHS contribution can apply. An assessment may be revisited if someone's needs increase or their capital falls.
Understanding the weekly cost
Fees vary between homes and according to how much support a person needs, so ask every provider for a written breakdown covering what the charge includes and what is billed separately. Hairdressing, chiropody and outings commonly fall outside the basic fee. Ask how often fees are reviewed and what happens when needs rise.
Choosing a care home in Greenhithe and what to look for
Three residential care homes match this search: Turnbull Close, Rosewood Residential Care Home and Haslington Lodge Care Home. Each is registered for accommodation and personal care rather than nursing, which is worth weighing against how needs are likely to change.
Making use of the inspection reports
All three hold a Good rating from the Care Quality Commission, meaning inspectors found the home meeting the standards expected of it. The useful detail, though, lies in the report rather than the rating. Read what was said about staffing, about how residents are supported when unwell, and about how the home is led. Check the inspection date too, because a home can change a good deal between visits.
Judging a home in person
Visit at least twice and at different times of day, including a mealtime if possible. Notice whether residents seem settled and occupied, how staff speak to people who need help, and how easily residents move about. Ask about night staffing, how care plans are reviewed, and how the home keeps families informed.
