Choosing between the nursing homes covering Reigate
Start with the clinical reason for the move, because that is what distinguishes a nursing home from everything else on offer locally. Needs such as wound care, tube feeding, catheter management or palliative nursing are met in house by registered nurses rather than by district nurses calling in. Ask how many qualified nurses are rostered on each shift, and who takes clinical decisions overnight and at weekends.
Where the grades sit
Wray Common Nursing Home, Eversfield, The Reigate Beaumont and Rutland House Nursing Home are each rated Good. Reigate Grange currently holds Requires Improvement, which reflects one inspection on one set of dates rather than a reason to rule it out. Find out which of the five assessed areas fell short, how recent the finding is and what has changed since.
Questions a visit should answer
Ask about turnover among the nursing team, since instability tends to sit behind weaker findings. Find out whether a rise in needs would bring a fee change or a move within the home. Request the fee schedule in writing, including whatever triggers a higher band, and call in near a mealtime to watch how residents needing help to eat are supported.
Arranging the assessment and funding the placement
A care needs assessment is the step that establishes whether nursing rather than residential care is required, and it comes before any contract. It is free, anyone may request it, and a relative can do so with consent. Surrey County Council is responsible for that assessment and the financial assessment that follows, and where a hospital stay is involved the discharge team normally starts the process.
How the means test is applied
Savings, income and, in a permanent placement, usually the value of a property are measured against the national capital thresholds. Capital above the upper threshold means fees are met privately. Below the lower threshold only income is counted, with a weekly personal allowance protected, and a deferred payment arrangement can postpone a sale.
Costs and the NHS contributions to claim
Nursing fees in this part of the country sit above the national average because of the clinical staffing behind them. NHS funded nursing care pays a fixed weekly amount towards the nursing element whatever the resident's means, and NHS continuing healthcare can fund a whole placement where the need is primarily clinical. Both sit outside the council means test and are worth raising at the outset.
