Introduction If people start to find it difficult to be as independent as they used to be, they and their families/friends need to know about the community care and support services that are locally available and where they can go for advice and help. This Directory is an important source of this information for older people living in the Stoke-on-Trent area. There are many local organisations providing care and support services (eg the council, voluntary organisations, private care agencies, health services), and the information in this Directory will help you to begin to understand the different options available or advise where you can get more details. Many of the local organisations listed at the back of this Directory will also be able to help and to tell you about local services. If you, your family or friends can use the internet, then you can use the Staffordshire Cares website to find information and guidance. The website content covers the whole of Staffordshire but tailors the information to the reader’s location and there are different sections providing different types of guidance: • General information about help that is available and how to find it (main pages)

• Help to identify and choose the sort of help that you need (Me, Myself & I pages) • Lists of local services (Purple Pages) • Help to identify and choose equipment and services (My Choices pages) • Information about local care assistants (CareMatch pages) • Easy Read information about local services • British Sign Language information for people with hearing difficulties (BSL pages) Visit www.staffordshirecares.info for more details. We hope that you find the Directory and Staffordshire Cares website helpful, however if you can’t find the information that you need then telephone 0800 561 0015 (Stoke-onTrent Adult Social Care Contact Centre). Alternatively, you can call this Directory’s free independent helpline on 0800 389 2077 for impartial advice on your care options or visit www.carechoices.co.uk where you can search for care solutions locally and nationally.

Should I contact the council for help? Sometimes all that you need to stay independent and healthy is some general help with things around the house such as cleaning, preparing meals, gardening etc. As our local community and voluntary organisations are best placed to help you find this, it may not be necessary for you to ask the council for help. Also, simple pieces of equipment (such as hand rails, specialist kitchen equipment etc) can help you to stay independent again without the need to seek more formal care such as a

home care assistant. There is more information about this on page 7 and at www.staffordshirecares.info. However, if you feel that this level of support is no longer working for you (eg you are struggling with your personal care or ability to get out and about), you can ask for some professional help by calling the Adult Social Care Contact Centre on 0800 561 0015 (or ask someone to do this for you).

Will I need ‘formal’ care? People may need professional help to keep safe and well because they have developed an illness or disability, are frail, have family difficulties, or are just getting older and finding day to day life more difficult. To identify whether you need formal care to enable you to remain independent, a social worker can look at what you can and can’t do (as well as what you would like to be able to do) and advise you. Everyone is entitled to this ‘assessment’ (including carers)

and sometimes it will take place over the phone and sometimes face to face in your home. Depending on what your needs are (whether you are eligible to receive help from the council is based on criteria set by the Government), the council may then be able to make the necessary arrangements for you. If not (or if you prefer), you will be advised about the community/voluntary agencies and private organisations that can help you.

This Directory’s helpline 0800 389 2077 – information on choosing and paying for care

Will I have to pay? There is no charge for the ‘assessment’ described on page 4 or for any advice that the council provides afterwards, but unfortunately formal care services are not free. However, it is very important to be aware that the council may be able to help with this. To determine whether the council can contribute to or pay in full for the formal care that you need, it is necessary to look at your ability to pay yourself. There are different rules for this depending on whether you need formal care in your home or whether you need some

form of residential care. If you want more information about this see www.staffordshirecares.info or telephone the Adult Social Care Contact Centre on 0800 561 0015. If you are not eligible to receive assistance from the council then you can arrange any support that you need yourself, or you can ask a local organisation called A4e to help you (there may be a charge for this). A separate guide is available to help you with this (Practical Guide to Care) - available from the council or in GP waiting rooms.

Who will arrange my care? If the council contributes to or pays for your formal care they will also make the necessary arrangements for you to receive it. There are changes to the way they provide care and support to older people and people with disabilities, as

traditionally professionals made many of the decisions about the support that people could have and how this would be provided. As a result, people often had limited choice about the services they received - this has now changed.

Personalisation (the idea) Now, there is more emphasis on the individuals who receive support and help. This means that you will be involved every step of the way, allowing you to have more choice and control over your life and receive services

designed specifically around you. This is sometimes referred to as ‘Self-Directed Support.’ It recognises that some people can manage their support on their own whilst others need help - from family or friends or people who are paid to help.

Personal Budgets (your support) If you are eligible for social care assistance a social worker will complete an assessment to help you and the council understand what kind of support you need. The assessment will also help to identify the cost of your support. Once the assessment has been agreed a support plan will be written to set out how your needs are to be met. The plan needs to support you in a positive way so that your physical, mental and social wellbeing improves. This needs to be agreed before your support can be costed and chosen

(your Personal Budget). If you want to, you can take your Personal Budget as a cash payment (Direct Payment). You could even mix and match your support by taking part of your budget as a Direct Payment as well as using some of the Council’s traditional services. Your social worker will be able to explain all the options and can help you to decide how best to use your Personal Budget.

Direct Payments (money to buy your support) These are cash payments that you can receive instead of having traditional social care services. Having a Direct Payment allows you to have more control, allowing you to design the support you receive to meet your specific needs and to do so in more innovative and creative ways. Here are some examples of how you could use your Direct Payment:

• Pay someone (a Personal Assistant) to provide assistance on days and times that suit you. • You could access activities such as the theatre, swimming pool or a day out somewhere. • If you or your carer needs a rest you could pay to go on a short holiday. There are some restrictions to what Direct Payments >>

Visit www.carechoices.co.uk for further assistance with your search for care

Direct Payments (money to buy your support) continued >> can be spent on. These will be explained to you if you are eligible. Support and advice is available through a local organisation called A4e. However, if you would like more

information on any of the above please contact us by calling the Adult Social Care Contact Centre on 0800 561 0015 or emailing social.care@stoke.gov.uk.

Help after leaving hospital If you need some help following a spell in hospital, this can be arranged before you leave hospital so that you can be discharged safely and as quickly as possible. When you are ready to leave hospital you will be given some information and advice and you can ask for someone to help you (usually the health and social workers) to identify if you need support and if you do, what type of support you might need at home (this is called an ‘assessment’). Family members, carers or hospital representatives can also request an assessment for you but this will only take place if you agree. Help at home following a hospital stay can range from a care worker visiting your home or helping you to get out and about for a short time (this is known as a reablement

service and is free for up to six weeks), through to help from local voluntary organisations who can help with a variety of services such as laundry, shopping and domestic cleaning. The type and level of help that you need will be identified through the assessment that takes place with the health and social care workers. If you are the main carer for somebody who is leaving hospital you may also need help and support and this can be discussed (or assessed) at the same time if you wish. For further information please visit www.staffordshirecares.info or call the Adult Social Care and Health Contact Centre on 0800 561 0015.

Living at home If you struggle with day to day tasks such as washing, dressing and cooking for example, there are useful aids, equipment, adaptations and home support available

to make things easier and to help you live safely and independently in your own home.

Equipment As well as simple gadgets and gizmos, there is a range of equipment that may help you, including ‘Telecare’ services such as the Lifeline community alarm pendant. This is a particularly useful service that can help to reassure individuals and their families that help is available in the event of a fall or illness. Other similar equipment includes detectors and alarms. Equipment such as grab rails, bath boards, or hoists can also make living at home easier for people, and it may be possible for this equipment to be loaned from the ‘Community Equipment Services’ in Stoke-on-Trent. All of this equipment can be seen and demonstrated at the Mobility Independent Living Centre at Trentham (open to visitors from 9am - 5pm on weekdays). Some things can also be purchased from here, however you may be entitled to receive some things free of charge depending on your circumstances and what you need. Alternatively, if you would like an assessment to see if

Telecare services or other equipment can help you, please call the Adult Social Care Contact Centre on 0800 561 0015. More information about equipment is available by visiting www.staffordshirecares.info

This Directory’s helpline 0800 389 2077 – information on choosing and paying for care

Adaptations Adaptations to your home (regardless of whether you own it yourself or rent) can make your day to day life easier and safer – for example you may be finding it difficult to climb the stairs so rather than needing to move house you could install a stair lift. The council can assess your circumstances and if appropriate make a recommendation that you receive a financial grant for this, or (if you are in rented accommodation) recommend to your landlord that certain changes are made.

The council can also make recommendations and support for you to be re-housed if your current home is unsuitable (if you are living in rented accommodation). Referrals can also be made to other agencies where necessary for example, the wheelchair clinic or to a physiotherapist. If you would like an assessment or more information about adaptations, then please call the Adult Social Care Contact Centre on 0800 561 0015.

Home care Sometimes it might be necessary to have care provided within your own home. This involves a care worker visiting you at home to help you with your personal needs such as washing yourself, getting dressed, using the toilet or preparing snacks and meals. Care in your home is the main way of making sure that you are safe after a stay in hospital or illness, and it will

help you to regain your independence and confidence. A care worker will work with you for a short time (usually 6 weeks) to help you regain your confidence and skills to live independently at home. More information is available at www.staffordshirecares.info or by telephoning the Adult Social Care Contact Centre on 0800 561 0015.

Home maintenance and gardening If you are finding it hard to maintain, repair or adapt your home then Stoke-on-Trent Home Improvement Agency (Revival) may be able to help you. Revival provides a range of property repairs, adaptations, handyman, safety checks and other home related services. To find out if Revival can

help telephone 01782 749202. There are also lots of other private and community/ voluntary organisations that may be able to help with home maintenance and gardening – visit the service directory at www.staffordshirecares.info for more information.

Getting out and about What things are there to do? Keeping active and socialising with others is a great way to keep healthy and independent - this doesn’t necessarily mean going to the gym or taking up a sport (although it may!) but can be as simple as doing the things that you have always done: • going to bingo; • shopping; • visiting friends; • going out for coffee or lunch; • going to community events; • joining an art/woodwork/singing group etc; • going to the theatre/cinema;

• visiting parks and gardens; • helping to walk the dogs at the local kennel; or • relaxation rooms/treatments/therapies. These are just examples of the many things that you might want to do and it is worth remembering that these are still available to you in many ways – for example you can arrange these yourself, with a group of friends or you could see if anything has already been organised, if you are eligible to receive help from the council (see pages 4 and 5). There are also more structured events for people who need assistance with personal care/eating/etc whilst away from their daily home arrangements. Often these are >>

Visit www.carechoices.co.uk for further assistance with your search for care

What things are there to do? continued >> arranged by local voluntary groups and include a visit from the chiropodist or hairdresser plus lunch/bingo etc. These all provide an excellent way to socialise, meet new friends and enjoy different surroundings and can help you from becoming isolated. They can also give your carer a

break and give them some time to themselves. Many of these activities are likely to exist fairly close to your home. Please visit www.staffordshirecares.info for more information.

How can I get there? There are a number of ways to help you to get out and about in Stoke-on-Trent so that you can be independent and socialise with others. Bus pass – if you are over 65 or have certain disabilities you can have free bus travel in the UK (Monday to Friday: 9.30 to 23.00 and weekends/bank holidays: anytime) Disabled parking – if you have a severe and permanent

disability you may be entitled to a Blue Badge which enables you to park closer to where you want to be. If you qualify for council help then one of their transport schemes may be able to help you to get out and about. For information on these and other travel options please visit www.staffordshirecares.info.

Being a carer If you provide care or support for someone, eg a parent, child, partner, relative, friend or neighbour, then you are a carer. Carers can be any age and provide support without being paid. You may be supporting them because they cannot manage alone at home or in the community. This could be because they are elderly and frail, have a physical or mental illness, experience health problems, have a learning disability or they could have drug or alcohol problems. You may help them in a variety of ways, giving practical help with things like shopping, collecting medication, cooking and cleaning; providing personal care by helping them to get washed and dressed or use the toilet; helping with financial matters; giving emotional support; or helping them to get out and about. Looking after someone can be a positive experience but

it can also be challenging and exhausting, both physically and mentally. You may find yourself with very little time for yourself or to look after your own health and well-being. If you care or look after someone who is unable to manage on their own, then you are entitled to an assessment, where we may be able to offer you assistance and support (discussed on page 5). If you are eligible for social care services we can also offer you a Direct Payment which allows you to choose and purchase for yourself services that best meet your needs. For more information and advice about getting help if you are a carer, looking after someone in Stoke-on-Trent, please visit www.staffordshirecares.info or www.stoke.gov.uk/carers or call the Adult Social Care Contact Centre on 0800 561 0015 (if you are a young carer (under 18 years of age) please call 01782 235422).

Emergency help The Carers Emergency Scheme is a scheme that provides assistance to a carer (24 hours a day, 7 days a week) in the event that a carer is involved in an accident or emergency. It is open to carers who have had either a joint community assessment or separate carer’s assessment (see above). It is free to join, and they can register via an application form available from Adult Social Care. The carer will receive an Emergency Card which shows the contact number and their own personal reference number. The carer must carry the card at all times and in

the event of an emergency the carer or person attending will phone the contact number on the card. The contact centre at the support agency will ask for the reference number and immediately initiate the emergency plan. The scheme offers reassurance and peace of mind to both the carer and the person cared for. If you would like to speak to someone about the scheme please call the Adult Social Care Contact Centre on 0800 561 0015.

What are my housing options? You may feel that you have exhausted all the options to remain living in your own home and that it is now the right time to look at moving into more purpose-based accommodation and support. You are advised to ask the

council to provide you with an assessment of your needs (see page 4) so that a professional social worker can help you to decide what the most appropriate option is for you. This section looks at the different housing options available.

Extra Care housing Extra Care housing enables you to live independently for as long as possible in self-contained accommodation. It provides a secure environment with care services available 24 hours a day in your own home - provided by a team of care workers. You have your own kitchen, bathroom, bedroom(s) and living room, but there are also communal facilities such as restaurants, hair salon and

other social opportunities. These can usually be either purchased, part-purchased or rented (with financial support usually being available to you depending on your circumstances). For further information, call the Adult Social Care Contact Centre on 0800 561 0015.

Sheltered (or retirement) housing Sheltered (or retirement) housing is suitable if you like living independently but want the reassurance of knowing that assistance is on hand if there is an emergency. In a sheltered (or retirement) housing scheme you live independently in a flat or bungalow built especially for older people within a larger complex, sometimes around a

garden or communal facility and linked to a central control centre for security. Some schemes have access to a resident or non-resident manager who provides support, advice and a link to services for older people. For further information, call the Adult Social Care Contact Centre on 0800 561 0015.

Care homes All care providers in the country must be registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC). The CQC inspect all care homes and report on their findings - these are available from the care home itself or the CQC (visit www.cqc.org.uk). There are two types of care home: Care homes offering personal care only If you are reasonably active, but need greater security and care, a care home offering only personal care may be suitable. Most care homes provide you with your own bedroom, toilet and washing facilities, and can provide bathrooms with equipment to help you with bathing. Personal care includes help with bathing, feeding, and dressing, and help is available 24 hours a day. There are usually a range of social activities too for you to take part in. Care homes with nursing Care homes with nursing provide all the features of a care home plus 24 hour nursing support. >>

Care homes continued >> Paying for care homes There are a number of complicated rules about whether the council can fund your stay in a care home (with or without nursing). There is some brief information on page 5 about this, however this is too complicated to explain in this Directory and you should contact the council for more help about this. For more information about care homes both with and without nursing, see the listings starting on page 18 in this Directory, visit www.cqc.org.uk, www.staffordshirecares.info or www.carechoices.co.uk

How do I know if someone is being abused and what do I do? Who is a vulnerable adult? A vulnerable adult is someone aged 18 years or over, who is not able to care for or protect themselves from harm or exploitation. This might be due to their age, mental health, sensory loss or a physical or learning disability and therefore maybe eligible for social care services. Abuse can: • be an act which goes against your human rights; • be a single act or repeated acts; • happen in any relationship; • result in harm; or • take advantage of someone’s vulnerability. What kinds of abuse are there? There are six main types of abuse: • physical - for example, shaking, pinching, slapping, force-feeding, biting, improper administration or denial of medication;

Where can abuse happen? Abuse can happen in any setting and this could take place in someone’s own home, in a hospital or residential care home, in a day centre or in a public place. For further advice and information you can also visit www.staffordshirecares.info How do I report abuse? If you have heard or seen something that worries you, or if you think someone is being abused, please tell us about it by calling the Adult Social Care Contact Centre on 0800 561 0015 or email adult.protection@stoke.gov.uk. If a crime is being committed or you are scared for somebody’s immediate safety then call 999 or in a nonemergency 101.

• psychological - for example, intimidating, rejection, threatening or ignoring; • financial - for example, the illegal or unauthorised use of a person’s property, money, pension book or other valuables and pressure in connection with wills; • sexual - for example, forcing a person to take part in any sexual activity without consent; • neglect - for example, where a person is deprived of food, heat, clothing, comfort or medication; and • discriminatory - including racist, sexist and other forms of harassment.

Why your views are important The social care service is here to support the people of Stoke-on-Trent, and listening to complaints, comments and compliments is one way of trying to make sure that quality services that meet local needs are being provided. The council will listen and consider how things can be improved and making a comment or complaint will not disadvantage you in any way or place the services that you receive at risk. Who can make a complaint? You have a right to complain if you, a family member or someone close to you receives a social care service; has been refused a service; or has been affected by a plan or decision.

How can you tell the council what you think? We aim to solve any problems as quickly as possible. To help us do this it is best for you to contact the staff you have been dealing with or their manager. You can also contact the Complaints and Representations Officer at: Civic Centre, Glebe Street, Stoke-on-Trent ST4 1WB Tel: 01782 235921 or 01782 234259 Fax: 01782 232217 Minicom: 01782 236133 Email: speakup@stoke.gov.uk
