How do I arrange a care needs assessment in Brighton and Hove?

Contact the adult social care team at Brighton and Hove City Council and explain what has become difficult at home. The assessment is free and available to anyone who appears to need care and support, whatever their savings or income. A practitioner will discuss daily tasks, safety and wellbeing, either at home or by telephone, then record which needs are eligible. If you provide regular unpaid care yourself, ask for a carer's assessment at the same time.

Will Brighton and Hove City Council pay for home care?

It may, once two separate assessments have been completed. The care needs assessment establishes whether the person has eligible needs, and the financial assessment then considers income and capital. Care may be funded in full, funded in part with a personal contribution, or paid for privately. Where support is agreed, a direct payment allows the family to choose and commission their own agency.

Which home care agencies serve Brighton and Hove?

Care Assura lists fifty seven home care agencies covering Brighton and Hove, all registered with the Care Quality Commission. They include providers such as Alina Homecare Brighton, Patching Lodge and Breeze Homecare, alongside a number of newer independent agencies. Each profile shows the current CQC rating where one has been published, together with the details needed to make contact. Confirming coverage of your own address is the sensible first step.

What is the difference between a care home and a nursing home?

A residential care home provides accommodation with personal care, so staff help with washing, dressing, meals and medication in a communal setting. A nursing home offers the same and also has registered nurses on duty, allowing it to meet clinical needs such as complex wound care or an unstable long term condition. Home care is different again, since support comes to the person in their own house. Many families in Brighton and Hove use home care for a long period before either kind of home is considered.

How far in advance should I look for home care in Brighton and Hove?

Start when daily life begins to slip rather than waiting for a fall or an admission to force a decision. Capacity varies between agencies and parts of the city, and arranging an assessment, comparing providers and agreeing a care plan can take several weeks. Hospital discharge shortens that timetable sharply. Having a shortlist ready makes an urgent decision considerably less stressful.

What should I ask a home care agency in Brighton and Hove before agreeing to visits?

Ask how many different carers will attend and whether a consistent team is kept for each person. Check how late calls are communicated, who is contactable at weekends and how complaints are investigated. Ask to see a sample care plan and find out how quickly it can be revised when needs change. Request written confirmation of hourly rates, weekend and bank holiday charges, minimum visit lengths and the notice period.

Arranging home care in Brighton and Hove and working out who pays

The care needs assessment

An assessment is the sensible first move, ahead of calls to individual agencies. Anyone who appears to need care and support can request one free of charge whatever their income or savings, and it produces the written record of eligible needs that providers will work from. A practitioner from Brighton and Hove City Council will discuss washing, dressing, eating, taking medication, moving safely around the home and keeping in touch with other people, then set out which needs are eligible for support. Anyone giving regular unpaid help has a separate right to a carer's assessment, so ask for both in the same conversation.

Funding and the cost of care at home

Where needs are found eligible, a financial assessment of income and capital follows. Care may then be funded in full, funded in part with a contribution from the person receiving it, or paid for privately. Families who qualify can request a direct payment and commission an agency of their own choosing rather than accept one arranged for them, which matters when a particular provider has impressed you. Privately funded home care is normally charged by the hour, with higher rates at weekends, on bank holidays and for shorter calls, while live in support is quoted weekly. Ask each agency for its rates, minimum visit length and notice period in writing before anything is signed.

Choosing between home care agencies in Brighton and Hove

Using the inspection record

All fifty seven agencies listed here are registered with the Care Quality Commission. Thirty four have been rated Good and five hold Requires Improvement, while eighteen are not yet rated. Where a report exists, look at what inspectors found about whether calls arrived when promised, how medicines were administered and recorded, what training carers had received and how the registered manager dealt with concerns. Check the date too, since a service can change substantially between inspections. An unrated agency has not been inspected rather than been criticised, so ask how long it has traded and who leads it.

Matching the agency to the person

Providers differ more than their websites suggest. Some concentrate on short personal care calls, others offer longer companionship visits, dementia support, overnight cover or help settling someone back home after a hospital stay, and agencies in this listing such as Alina Homecare Brighton and Patching Lodge operate in quite different ways. Confirm that carers actually travel to the address, ask who writes the care plan and check how quickly it can be changed if needs increase suddenly.

Questions to put to every agency

Ask how many different carers will attend over a fortnight and whether a small consistent team is kept. Find out how you would be told when a call is running late, who answers the telephone at weekends and how complaints are recorded and resolved. Ask how often care plans are formally reviewed and what happens when a regular carer leaves.
