Is this booklet for me? This booklet will help you if you, or a friend or relative: • Are thinking of moving into care home? Or • Need a short break in a care home

What will this booklet tell me? The information in this booklet will tell you: • Who you can contact if you need help and advice about residential and nursing care • What a care home is

• What the difference is between a care home and a care home with nursing • Things that you may like to consider if you are choosing or moving to a care home • About paying care home fees

Exploring my options Most people only consider residential care only after something alarming happens – perhaps a fall or leaving on the gas at the home. Care homes are not always suitable or required and other options should be considered first. Speak to our Adult Contact Team on 01302 737391 or by email

adultcontactteam@doncaster.gov.uk about a range of alternatives such as; • Reablement or rehabilitation - after a stay in hospital • Telecare – simple gadgets to help you live independently • Home Adaptations – Making your home more suitable for your needs

How can I get help? If you are considering moving to a care home, we can offer you a care assessment. Someone from the Adult contact team can talk with you about the kind of help that you may need and how we may be able to support you. You can still contact Doncaster Councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Adult Contact Team and ask for a care assessment, if you prefer to arrange and pay for your own residential or nursing care. If you think that you need our help

please ask for advice and a care assessment by contacting;Doncaster Councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Adult Contact Team: Telephone: 01302 737391 Email: adultcontactteam@doncaster.gov.uk You can also contact the Care Quality Commission if you would like more help or advice regarding specific care homes: Telephone: 03000 616161 Email: enquiries@cqc.org.uk

What is a care home? We believe that most older people want to be able to stay in their own homes as long as possible. With this in mind we offer a full range of community support to help people enjoy a happy and secure life in their homes and communities. Sometimes people are not able to remain in their own homes even with the community support available. They may therefore consider moving into residential care as their next home. Care homes can offer different types of care, such as residential care or nursing care. Some care homes provide specialist care for people who require extra support,

- for example dementia or other mental health illnesses. Residential care is available all around Doncaster, allowing people to choose a home which is close to family and friends, or in an area of Doncaster that is familiar to them. Homes are operated by local authorities, private companies and charities. Some care homes provide care only for Adults aged 18 to 65, whilst others provide care for older adults. When we talk about care homes in this booklet, we are talking about care homes which have been inspected and registered with the Care Quality Commission. (For further details please see page 10).

Nursing and residential care homes â&#x20AC;&#x201C; what is the difference? A residential care home offers accommodation, meals and personal care such as help with washing, dressing, meal times and going to the toilet. Residential homes offer care and support throughout the day and night. A nursing care home also offers accommodation, meals and personal

care, but the nursing care home also offers 24-hour presence of qualified nurses. Some care homes can offer both residential care and nursing care; these homes are

>> 5

called “dual registration homes”. Some homes offer specialist care- for example caring for people who have particular illnesses, such as Alzheimers or Parkinsons. If you have had an assessment, you will have been told if you or your relative needs residential care, specialist care, or nursing care.

If you have any further questions please contact Doncaster Council’s Adult Contact Team: Telephone: 01302 737391 Email: adultcontactteam@doncaster.gov.uk

Which type of home is best for me? It is important to choose the right type of care home, so that the care home can offer you the level of support that you need.

Please contact us for our advice and a care assessment by telephoning or emailing Doncaster Council’s Adult Contact Team:

Please ask us for advice or an assessment and we will talk to you, your carers and your family and friends, about the type of care home we think would best meet your needs. We may also involve Doncaster Clinical Commissioning Group if we think that you may need support with your healthcare needs.

How much will I have to pay? In Doncaster, each year the council sets rates for residential and nursing care home fees. There are different prices for residential care, nursing care and specialist care, and Doncaster also pay a premium to any homes. For fee information please contact our Adult Contact Team on 01302 737391 or by email adultcontactteam@doncaster.gov.uk as fees

will depend on your circumstances and whether you’ve been assessed as needing support and have been allocated resources to meet that need. Some care homes offer certain improved rooms in addition to their standard rooms. This may be due to the room’s larger size or having access to a private conservatory or bathroom, for example, and the care

home may charge a higher price than the council has agreed it will pay. If such a room is available and you choose to move into it, then a friend, relative or other person will

have to pay the extra amount to meet the price which the care home charges. This is called a Third Party Top Up. You cannot pay a Top up from your own income/assets.

If you want us to help fund your care home fees you will need to have a care assessment. We will only fund your care if, following your care assessment, we agree that you need residential or nursing care.

Funded Nursing Care and Continuing Healthcare Funded Nursing Care If you need a care home with nursing, the NHS will pay a contribution to your care; this is called Funded Nursing Care. The NHS pays this money directly to the care home to cover the costs of a nurse to be available at all times. (High Band only applies for people who lived in a care home with nursing before 1 October 2007 and whose needs were assessed as High Band.)

NHS Continuing Healthcare

The essential standards of quality and safety you can expect From 1 October 2010, health and social care providers have been responsible for ensuring their services meet the Care Quality Commissions Essential Standards of Quality and Safety. The Care Quality Commission (CQC) will register, and therefore license, care services if they meet essential standards and monitor them to make sure they continue to do so. CQC have a wide range of actions they can take if they find care services are not meeting essential standards.

The essential standards 1. You can expect to be involved and told what’s happening at every stage of your care • You will always be involved in discussions about your care and treatment, and your privacy and dignity will be respected by all staff. • You will be given opportunities, encouragement and support to promote your independence.

• You will be able to agree or reject any type of examination, care, treatment or support before you receive it. 2. You can expect care, treatment and support that meets your needs • Your personal needs will be assessed to make sure you get care that is safe and supports your rights. • You will get the food and drink you need to meet your dietary needs. • You will get safe and co-ordinated care where more than one care provider is involved or if you are moved between services. 3. You can expect to be safe • You will be protected from abuse or the risk of abuse, and staff will respect your human rights. • You will be cared for in a clean environment where you are protected from infection. • You will get the medicines you need, when you need them, and in a safe way.

ADVERTORIAL

Unquestionably the UK’s No. 1 – Latest report confirms top scores for Home Instead Home Instead Senior Care is delighted to have been revealed as England’s top homecare provider. The number one result comes from the UK’s leading healthcare information specialist, LaingBuisson who, for the last year, has been producing quarterly league tables based on data from the Care Quality Commission (CQC).

and respect for service users. The latest quarterly data from LaingBuisson puts Home Instead nationally, once again in the lead position with a score of 97%. Delighted with the result, Robert Moore, Owner of Home Instead in Doncaster said: “We are delighted with these results which bear testament to the dedication and hard work of our caregivers, office staff and shows their commitment to our values of providing the highest

Doncaster Council’s Monitoring Standards Doncaster Council contracts with a number of private residential and nursing homes within the borough.

• Monitor, evaluate and carry out quality audits on all private sector homes on a regular basis.

There is a dedicated contracts team. Within this team there are specific contract monitoring officers whose role is to ensure the principles of residential care, which are choice, dignity, fulfilment, independence, privacy and rights associated with citizenship are upheld.

• Listen to the views of residents, families and or representatives.

The contract monitoring officers: • Have the right to visit contracted care homes at any time without giving prior notice. Their role is to:

• Actively link with other professionals e.g. District Nurses, Environmental Health and Infection Control Nurses. The local authority takes positive steps to ensure the delivery of services are to the standards set out in the contractual agreement, alongside the Essential Standards of Quality and Safety.

What should I ask and look for when visiting a care home? This checklist gives suggested questions to ask and things to look for when visiting potential homes. It’s a good idea to photocopy this checklist so you can use it for each home or scheme you visit. This list is not exhaustive and there may be additional questions you would like to ask. It may be helpful to visit the home or scheme more than once, perhaps at different times of the day. You should ask Care Quality Commission

or the individual care home that you are interested in for a copy of their latest inspection report. You can also speak to the inspector prior to visiting a home. The following are just suggestions of what to look for when you are choosing a home, but there will be other things that are important to you. Do ask about them because this will help you make the right choice. It is important to ask the residents, as well as the staff, about life in the home. Use this handy comparison table to asses which care home might be more suitable.

The Doncaster Relatives and Residents Association The DRRA is a voluntary support group for residents in nursing homes, residential homes and long stay hospitals, and the relatives of those residents. The group holds monthly meetings at the Women’s Centre on Cleveland Street. Meetings are held on the third Wednesday of each month, 7.00pm - 9.00pm. Of the 500,000 elderly people in the UK who live in this type of care, 2,000 are in the Doncaster area. At some time, this, and the quality of life in the homes, could affect you. The Relatives & Residents National Association was founded in 1992 by a group of people who were relatives or close friends of elderly people in care homes. They had experienced and understood the practical and emotional difficulties relatives often encounter. Many relatives have problems in coming to terms with the change in their own roles, for especially if they have been caring themselves for a long time. Some want to talk about their feelings of guilt. Some are concerned when care is not what they had expected but do not want to complain when they can see the pressures on staff. Some are worried about money.

Doncaster relatives and friends of elderly in care, decided to form our group, which launched in May 1999. We meet each month providing: • A listening ear • Practical advice about problems • The ability to raise issues with homes, local and health authorities and Government departments • An opportunity to work with homes and others in ensuring the highest possible standards of care • A chance to join a local group • A regular contact • Information about publications, conferences and presentations • The opportunity to take part in surveys, consultations and opinion gathering. Our meetings are also open to home managers, owners, local authorities and members of other local groups. We actively network with Carers UK, the Alzheimer’s Society, Doncaster Partnership for Carers and Healthwatch Doncaster. Our members include nursing professionals involved in various activities, members of the Carer’s Forum and former home lay assessors. We are, and have been, consulted on many issues due to the many changes in Social Care and the Health Authority, e.g. CCG’s and their trust status, hospital mergers, Carer’s Charter, Carer’s Strategy, Doncaster Equity Plan and NHS Doncaster.

Family carers Are you a Carer? It is recognised that the support carers provide to the person they care for on a daily basis can help that person live independently in their own home for longer. However, caring can be physically and mentally exhausting and emotionally draining. The needs of the person being cared for can change over time, or they can decline very quickly. Before you realise it you could find yourself in a position where the person you care for is no longer able to look after themselves and, for whatever reason, you are no longer able to provide the care they need to manage on a daily basis. More often than not it is only when a crisis situation arises that carers contact social care services. However, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s better for all concerned to look at all the options available before a crisis arises, residential or nursing care being one option. As a carer, considering residential or nursing care with and for the person you care for can be extremely difficult. You will experience

many feelings during this period such as guilt because you can no longer cope, so you may feel you are letting the person you care for down. It is important to know that you can only do so much as a carer and that the emotions you are experiencing are normal. The important thing is to get support to help you and the person you care for make the right decision.

What options are available? It is important that you and the person that you care for explore all the options available to you. Social care services can help you do this. There may be more help that can be made available in your home that will help you both, such as equipment and/ or, perhaps, more regular short breaks in a residential care home for the person you care for to give you time for yourself. It is important, where possible, to talk through the options with the person you care for. If residential care is an option, perhaps the only realistic one, there may be a residential home close by that you

may wish to visit together and perhaps the person you care for would like to have a trial stay. There may be people in the home that you know. The care home staff will also be able to tell you how you can be involved and what you can expect from them. This may help you both feel better about the situation. However, if the person you care for is reluctant to discuss the situation or you are finding it difficult to progress with the move into residential care, then you may consider talking it through with a social worker, if the person you care for has one, or your GP. There are also local organisations that can help such as the local carers centre or the branch of the Relatives and Residents Association 01302 744459 or 01302 782697.
