Introduction

This guide has been produced to help you in selecting a Care Home and it contains: • Information and advice about what you need to consider when choosing a home and • Provides a list of homes available within the Wakefield District. We have tried to answer as many questions as possible and also tell you about what other services may be available to you that you may not be aware of. We hope that you find this information useful and if you can think of ways we can improve this guide please let us know. In reading this guide, please note that: • The information given was correct at the time of printing. • Inclusion in the guide is not in any way a recommendation of any particular home or agency by Wakefield District Council. • The guide only includes Care Homes that have entered into a contractual agreement with Wakefield District Council Family Services. For homes located outside the boundaries of Wakefield District, information on these can be obtained from the Care Quality Commission, or by contacting the relevant local authority. A section on useful numbers that you may need can be found at the back.

Helping you to stay independent Wakefield Council’s Family Services, and the NHS are working closely together to provide advice, services and support to help people stay independent. There are many different services available that may help you to stay independent or become more independent which may mean that you do not need to go in a care home. These include: • Home Care services – personal assistance at home with washing, bathing, using the toilet, dressing and undressing, getting up and going to bed, laundry, shopping etc. You can expect that the person who comes to your home to help you with your personal care will be trained to do these tasks. You will be asked how you would prefer to be helped with very personal matters and your wishes will be noted and respected. • Rapid response service provision in a crisis – This is a temporary service for around six weeks where a higher level of home care and support will be delivered to you to allow you to recover from a temporary illness. • Day care and day time activities – Here you will receive a meal and be able to socialise or carry out activities away from your home. • Short break provision and respite care – This service allows the person who would normally take care of you a chance to have a break from their caring role. • Provision of meals at home – The Community Meals Service can provide you with fresh and frozen meals delivered to your door seven days a week. • Rehabilitation services - includes services called ‘intermediate care services’ which helps to support people when they leave hospital and help to prevent inappropriate hospital or long stay admissions. • Equipment or adaptations to your home - If you need your home altering to make it easier for you to manage daily tasks and personal care we may be able to help. Our Occupational Therapists can visit you to carry out an assessment of your needs and discuss with you ways to meet those needs by the use of specially adapted equipment.

www.wakefield.gov.uk

• Care Link Emergency Alarm System - Care Link is an emergency alarm system that provides peace of mind and promotes independence for anyone living in Wakefield. Care Link has a range of community alarms and equipment that can help you keep your independence and stay in your own home. • Community health services, support from District Nurses, Community Psychiatric Nurses, your GP, etc. • Sheltered Housing and Extra Care Sheltered Housing services – These consist of a group of homes that have been specially designed with the needs of older people in mind. A sheltered scheme may be a group of flats or bungalows, or sometimes a mixture of both. Every flat or bungalow has modern facilities and is smaller and easier to maintain than normal housing. In sheltered housing you will also have the reassurance of knowing that the Scheme Manager is on hand in an emergency. All sheltered schemes have a communal lounge and social activities organised by the Scheme Manager. You can join in the activities or enjoy the company of friends in the communal lounge - and of course you can retreat to the privacy of your own flat or bungalow whenever you wish. • Community transport/bus passes/car badges – This allows you the opportunity to get out of your home and to go shopping or visit a friend. (Please note that this is not a complete list of services available). Services may be provided directly by Wakefield Council’s Family Services, Housing, local NHS services or by an independent organisation under contractual agreement. There may also be a charge for some of these services but you will always be informed how much you will have to pay on your assessment. To see if you qualify for any of these you will need an assessment of your care needs. If you think any of these services may help you please contact Social Care Direct on telephone number 0845 8503503.

Self Directed Support Self-Directed Support is a new system of social care. It enables people to be in control of their own lives by giving more choice, control and independence about how support is organised. Self-Directed Support is for anyone who gets help that is paid for by the Council. Self- Directed Support will be explained and offered following an assessment of needs. Following an assessment, you will be allocated a Personal Budget based on your needs. If you would like to request an assessment, contact Social Care Direct on 0845 8 503 503.

What is a Care Home? A care home can be a residential or nursing home or both. These homes can provide the personal help that people need 24 hours a day and seven days a week. Nursing homes also employ nurses to look after peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s medical needs. Some homes cater for people with different needs, for example older people over 65, people with dementia, older and younger people with physical disabilities and people with learning disabilities.

How do I know which home to choose? The best way to choose a home is to go and have a look round and talk to the people who live there. A list of homes that Wakefield Council Family Services contracts with and the different needs they cater for is at the back of this directory. You are welcome to arrange to visit them. We have included a checklist that you can use when you visit the homes. It outlines the sort of things you should be looking for and the questions that you might ask. All homes are inspected every year by the Care Quality Commission to make sure that they provide the care that people need. When you visit a home ask to see their annual inspection report. However, before you start to do this, you or the person you care for needs to have been assessed as needing to move into a care home.

www.wakefield.gov.uk

How do I get an assessment of my care needs? If you think you or someone you care for needs care in a Care Home you can contact Family Services for help. You can do this by telephoning Social Care Direct which is the first point of contact for all Social Care Services on telephone number 0845 8503503. If you or the person you care for are in hospital, ask to see the Hospital Social Work Team. A Social Worker or Care Co-ordinator will arrange a visit to discuss your situation and possible care needs. With your help and the person who cares for you, an assessment of needs will be carried out. This will determine exactly what your care needs are, set against criteria, called eligibility criteria which Family Services has established. This criteria is not the same for the NHS and they will use their own criteria when they carry out a nursing care assessment. A number of professionals could be involved in your assessment for example, social worker, nurse, doctor, physiotherapist, housing worker or occupational therapist. Your carer or family can be there if you want. Within Wakefield, all organisations are working together to develop a single process for assessments. These different organisations will often need the same information about you. Allowing the different agencies that provide care to share information will also help you, because you will not have to repeat the same information many times to different people. Any information you give, and decisions made about your care will be accurately recorded and you have a right to both see what it says and say who can read it. If you do not meet the Councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Family Services criteria we would tell you where else you might go for help. Social Care Direct is a dedicated social work telephone service who will be your first point of contact if you think that you may need social care services. Social Care Direct deals with new requests for social care services within the Wakefield District. Tel No 0845 8503503

Once I have been Can someone help assessed as needing me to choose? You are free to choose any Care Home that will meet residential care, how your assessed needs. Alternatively, you can ask the to make a decision on your behalf. much do I have to pay? Council As this is a very important decision to make, you There are rules and regulations with regard to how much you will have to pay towards the cost of your care. The amount will be based on how much money you have coming in each week and any property or savings you may have. With your help the Council will work out and inform you of how much you will need to pay. Your Social Worker or Care Co-ordinator will arrange for an Assessment Advisor to complete a ‘Statement of Financial Circumstances’ form to help calculate the amount. If you own property or land, we will tell you about the ‘Council’s Deferred Payments Scheme’ and how this affects the amount you will have to pay and how the cost of your care may be secured against your property or land until it is sold. If the cost of living in the home you choose is more than the allowance the Council in your circumstances would normally pay towards your care, then your relative or another person will be required to pay the additional amount. Where the Council feels that someone has given away an asset (e.g. cash, savings, or property) with the intention of paying less towards their care costs, the Council will treat that person as still having that asset when working out what they must pay towards their care. If you also need nursing care you will be given additional information by your local NHS about the payment of these costs. You are allowed to keep a small amount of your weekly income to pay for your personal requirements, such as magazines, hairdressers, etc. This is known as your personal allowance and is a specific amount set by the Department of Health in April of each year. You will be given details of the current rate at your assessment. For more information please also see the Council’s leaflet ‘Guide to Entering a Care Home’ and ‘Paying for Services’.

www.wakefield.gov.uk

should not feel rushed, take time and discuss it with the important people in your life before making your choice.

Who monitors the care I receive? The Council has entered into contractual arrangements with Care Homes within the Wakefield District and with certain Care Homes within neighbouring Council’s areas. This contract sets out the principles and standards upon which the provision of care is to be based. After six weeks in the Care Home your Social Worker or Care Co-ordinator will carry out a review of your care, your family or the person who was caring for you can be involved if you wish. Following this, your care needs will then be reviewed after six months and annually thereafter. If you are receiving nursing care, a nursing review will be carried out by a NHS Registered Nurse after you have been in the Care Home for twelve weeks. Thereafter you will have a nursing review on an annual basis. If your care needs change at any time then either you or the Homeowner can contact a Social Worker or a Care Co-ordinator to arrange a reassessment of your needs. If, following reassessment, it is decided that you need registered nursing care you may have to move to another Care Home where nursing care can be provided unless your Care Home is registered to provide nursing care. The Care Quality Commission normally inspects Homes twice a year to ensure that they have passed certain standards. A summary of the inspection reports of the Care Homes within Wakefield can be found on the Care Quality Commission Internet web site. Also you can ask for a copy from the Care Home.

What if I have a complaint?

If you have a complaint about the service provided by the Council you should contact the Complaints and Representations Manager in Family Services on 01924 302840. If you have a complaint about a Care Home and you do not wish to discuss it with the Homeowner, you should contact the Contracts Section in Family Services or your local office of the Care Quality Commission. You should contact the relevant Primary Care Trustâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Patient Advisory and Liaison Service if you have a complaint about the nursing care that you receive. All the relevant addresses and telephone numbers can be found at the end of this guide.
