Healthwatch Lincolnshire Healthwatch Lincolnshire is your independent consumer champion for health and social care, putting you at the heart of health and social care services. Our role is to give local people a voice to influence and challenge how health and social care services are provided locally. We do this by listening to and talking with residents from all communities and by holding service providers to account. We are here to ensure that your views are heard by the key decision makers.
What does Healthwatch Lincolnshire do? Healthwatch Lincolnshire can help you to get the best out of health and social care services. We can do this by: • Providing you with information about your local services and how you can access the help you need. • Listening to your views and hear what you have to say about what is working well and what isn’t. • Signposting you when you need to make a complaint about the care or service you or your loved one have or haven’t received. • Work with the organisations that commission local health or social care services and make sure they are aware of the concerns and issues raised by local people. •
Follow up any concerns or issues raised by the residents to ensure they are responded to and work to ensure they have an impact on how services are run.
Who are we and what are our powers? Under the Health & Social Care act 2012. We have legal powers to look into specific areas of concern and, as a result, to make recommendations on how services can be improved. Where appropriate we will be able to alert healthcare providers and regulators to concerns that have been raised about specific services, health and social care matters, in the following ways: • To enter and view health and social care services while they are being delivered. • To gain an understanding of people’s experiences whilst they are receiving services and social care. • To respond to concerns raised from the public or national agendas regarding services. • To create reports on the findings and work with service providers to develop and improve services. • To request information about services and to make recommendations on how things could be better run. •
To pass information, issues and concerns to regulators of the services and to escalate issues to Healthwatch England, NHS England, the Care Quality Commission and the Department of Health.
• To be represented on key decision-making bodies including the Lincolnshire Health and Wellbeing Board and the NHS Quality Surveillance Group. •
Healthwatch Lincolnshire has a Board of non- executive Directors /Trustees (volunteers). Directors / Trustees are recruited for their expertise and skills in health and social care, finance, HR and Business Planning.
• Influence the way services are set up and commissioned, through opportunities such as our seat on the Lincolnshire Health and Wellbeing Board.

Healthwatch Lincolnshire Healthwatch Lincolnshire can help you by: • Explaining your rights and what standards to expect from health and social care services. • Helping you find out about funding for health and social care. • Helping you access services and find the right service for you. • Putting you in touch with support groups, voluntary and community groups or organisations. • Telling you about your health and care rights, including how to make a complaint if you are unhappy with a service. • Passing on your comments about excellent service and social care.
Listening and gathering views. Every week Healthwatch Lincolnshire visits the local communities from health and social care settings to local community venues. This gives you plenty of opportunities to come and speak with us face-to-face. You can also get in touch by writing to us, phoning, emailing or leaving feedback on our website. Find out where we will be by visiting our events page on our website at www.healthwatchlincolnshire.co.uk We have a dedicated team of staff who monitor concerns and complaints and provide residents of Lincolnshire with up-to-date information and signposting about services. We analyse data from patient, carer and user experiences, and as a result identify emerging trends. This provides early responses in areas of concern.

Hospital discharge - Know your rights ...
If you go into hospital, you may be worried about whether you’ll cope when you leave.
You shouldn’t be discharged from hospital until: You are medically fit (this can only be decided by the consultant or someone the consultant has said can make the decision on their behalf ). You have had an assessment to look at the support you need to be discharged safely. You have been given a written care plan that sets out the support you’ll get to meet your assessed needs. The support described in your care plan has been put in place and it’s safe for you to be discharged. A hospital’s discharge policy should state how patients and carers are involved in discharge planning.
For unplanned admissions, such as if you’ve had a fall and hurt yourself, discharge planning should begin on the day you’re admitted to hospital. If you are likely to have ongoing health and social care needs when you leave hospital, the assessment may be carried out by a multi-disciplinary team of health or social care professionals. Depending on your needs, the multi-disciplinary team could include a social worker, physiotherapist, occupational therapist, speech therapist, mental health nurse or dietitian.
If you have limited capacity to make your own decision, the Mental Capacity Act will apply.
You should be fully involved in the assessment process, and your views should be listened to. With your permission, any family carers will also be kept informed and given the opportunity to contribute
It is worth thinking about appointing a deputy or enacting a welfare power of attorney before you go into hospital.
A care plan will be drawn up, detailing the health and social care support for you, and you should be fully involved.
If you’re due to go into hospital in a planned way, such as for an operation, planning for what happens afterwards should happen before you ever arrive at the hospital.
The care plan should include details of: the treatment and support you will get when you’re discharged

The types of support in someone’s care plan will depend on their assessed needs and preferences. A care plan could include: Community care services from the local authority, such as reablement services. An assessment for these must be arranged if it seems that you may need them. NHS continuing healthcare. NHS funded nursing care. Intermediate care This is short-term care that’s provided free of charge for people who no longer need to be in hospital but may need extra support to help them recover. It lasts for a maximum of six weeks and can be provided in someone’s home or in a residential setting.
Other NHS services, such as rehabilitation or palliative care. Equipment such as wheelchairs, specialist beds, or aids and adaptations for daily living. Support from voluntary agencies Some organisations such as Age UK and the Red Cross provide “home from hospital” services that can help with household tasks or shopping while you settle back home.
Consent to treatment Doctors must seek and obtain your consent to carry out a test or treatment before it takes place. So you can make an informed decision, they should clearly explain any proposed examination, treatment or investigation, including the risks and benefits.
The right to refuse treatment
When you are discharged from hospital
You have the right to refuse treatment, even if others consider your decision unwise, as long as you understand the consequences of your decision
On the day of discharge, the person co-ordinating the discharge should make sure that you (and a carer if you have one) have a copy of the care plan.
Welfare benefits while in hospital Your State Pension doesn’t change, no matter how long you are in hospital.
transport is arranged to get you home
If you receive Attendance Allowance (AA), Disability Living Allowance (DLA) or Personal Independence Payment (PIP), you should notify the Department for Work and Pensions as these benefits will be suspended after you have spent 28 days in hospital.
any carers will be available if needed your GP is notified in writing you have any medication or other supplies you’ll need you’ve been trained how to use any equipment, aids or adaptations needed you have appropriate clothes to wear you have money and keys for your home If you are being discharged to a care home, the care home should also be told the date and time of your discharge, and have a copy of the care plan.
Carers’ involvement in hospital discharge If someone you know is in hospital and about to be discharged, you should not be put under pressure to accept a caring role or take on more than you’re already doing if you are already their carer. You should be given adequate time to consider whether or not this is what you want or are able to do. If necessary, you should ask for other arrangements to be made while you are reaching a decision
Residential care, nursing homes and hospital In some circumstances, people may have to move to a home directly from hospital. On discharge from hospital, you have the right to choose the residential care or nursing home that best meets your needs. You cannot be moved directly into a home against your will. The home you move into must meet your assessed needs. If your needs are complex or you need specific care related to your disability, illness or age, this might take some time. Pressure should not be put on you to make your decision quickly.

NHS continuing healthcare funding Are you eligible for NHS continuing healthcare funding?
What costs are covered?
If you have a disability or complex medical problem, you might qualify for free NHS continuing healthcare (CHC). Not many people know about it, so it’s important to find out if you’re eligible and get an assessment If you need a lot of nursing support, the NHS can fund your care for you. NHS continuing healthcare (adults) or NHS continuing care (children) helps you with healthcare needs resulting from disability, accident or illness. If you qualify, it should meet the full cost of your care including care at home, in a nursing home or hospice. In England, the NHS can arrange care for you or you can choose to receive funding for your care as a direct payment, known as a personal health budget
Who is eligible? The only sure way to know if you’re eligible is to ask your GP or social worker to arrange an assessment. There’s no clear-cut list of health conditions or illnesses that qualify for funding. Most people with long-term care needs don’t qualify for NHS continuing healthcare or NHS continuing care because the assessment is quite strict. Being frail, for example, isn’t enough. But don’t let that put you off. Free healthcare could be worth thousands of pounds each year, so it’s important to find out where you stand.
What are eligible health needs? complex medical conditions that need additional care and support long-term medical conditions physical or mental disabilities terminal illnesses rapidly deteriorating health mobility problems behavioural or cognitive disorders

NHS continuing healthcare or continuing care covers personal care and healthcare costs, such as paying for specialist therapy or help with bathing or dressing. It may also include accommodation if your care is provided in a care home, or support for carers if you’re being looked after at home. If you need nursing care as an adult, you might get NHS funded nursing care. You might get this even if you don’t qualify for NHS continuing healthcare or NHS continuing care. Funding varies by region, so you’ll need to check with your local Clinical Commissioning Group. First of all, you’ll have an initial screening to see if you’re eligible for funding. It’s usually carried out in hospital or at home by a nurse, doctor, social worker or other healthcare professional. They’ll assess your general health and care needs with a simple checklist that will cover: behaviour cognition (everyday understanding of what’s going on around you) communication psychological and emotional needs mobility nutrition (food and drink) continence skin (including wounds and ulcers) breathing symptom control through drug therapies and medication altered states of consciousness other significant care needs If your health, or the health of someone you care for, is getting worse rapidly, ask about a fast track assessment to bypass the initial screening.

The assessment
Key points
If the initial screening shows that you may be able to get free NHS Continuing Care, you’ll need to have another assessment.
Personal health budgets should help people get a more personalised service from the NHS. They should not make things worse.
Even though the assessment process can be complex, most people and families who’ve been through it say the benefits are worth it.
You do not have to have a personal health budget if you do not want one.
The Assessment team will mark each of your care needs as: priority severe high moderate low If you have at least one priority need or two severe needs, you should qualify for funding. If you have one severe need and a number of other high or moderate needs, you may also be eligible. Circumstances change, so even if you were turned down for funding at first, make sure you have your situation regularly reviewed. Your GP or Local Carers Centre can help you.
What is a personal health budget? Personal health budgets are being introduced by the NHS to help people manage their care in a way that suits them. Since October 2014, adults receiving NHS Continuing Healthcare and children in receipt of continuing care have had a right to have a personal health budget. A personal health budget is an amount of money to support your identified health and wellbeing needs, planned and agreed between you and your local NHS team. The aim is to give people with long-term conditions and disabilities greater choice and control over the healthcare and support they receive.
Our popular day service provides a supportive and flexible approach to a wide range of life skills and social activities.

They enable you to have more choice and control over the care you receive. NHS and social care organisations should work in partnership with you and with each other. If you are not able to have a personal health budget, you can still speak to your NHS team about how your needs can be met in another way that is more personal to you.
Personal health budgets for people with learning disabilities Personal health budgets offer a real opportunity to enable people with learning disabilities to live in their own homes or with their families, rather than in institutions. Across England the NHS has already begun to offer personal health budgets and joint health and social care budgets to people with learning disabilities who have complex health needs or challenging behaviour. People with learning disabilities eligible for NHS Continuing Healthcare now have a right to have a personal health budget. Anyone else whose support is funded by the NHS, including those with jointly funded packages could also benefit. From April 2015, all CCGs are being asked to develop plans for a major expansion of personal health budgets, and to ensure that people with learning disabilities are included by April 2016.

Challenging local authority & NHS assessments If you or your relative are unhappy with a decision made by the local authority or NHS relating to their care needs, you may decide to challenge the decision.
Challenging a local authority decision If you, or your relative, have had a care assessment, financial assessment or carer’s assessment and are unhappy with: its content the way it was conducted or the outcomes Your relative has not seen the assessment or has not had a chance to comment or sign. The assessment didn’t cover all of your relative’s needs. There should be a record of all presenting needs, not just those classed as ‘eligible’. Your relative is unhappy with the decision following a financial assessment and can’t afford what the council is asking for. The local authority didn’t offer any feasible options for meeting non-eligible needs. Local authorities are supposed to signpost people to other services that could meet non-eligible needs. You don’t agree with the judgements about which needs were ‘eligible’. You don’t agree with the way your relative’s needs are described. The assessment failed to offer clear outcomes (the difference the service is meant to make to your relative’s life) or the outcomes are not appropriate or not of your choice. The choice of service suggested by the care plan won’t meet your relative’s eligible needs/won’t deliver the intended outcome. The amount of service offered will not meet your relative’s eligible needs. There have been unacceptable delays in carrying out the assessment or making decisions. Poor customer service or rude staff.
Understanding the national eligibility criteria for care and support? The eligibility threshold for adults with care and support needs is based on identifying how a person’s needs affect their ability to achieve relevant outcomes, and how this impacts on their wellbeing. Local authorities must consider whether the person’s needs: • arise from or are related to a physical or mental impairment or illness • make them unable to achieve two or more specified outcomes • as a result of being unable to meet these outcomes, there is likely to be a significant impact on the adult’s wellbeing 17
An adult’s needs are only eligible where they meet all three of these conditions. The specified outcomes measured include: • managing and maintaining nutrition, such as being able to prepare and eat food and drink • maintaining personal hygiene, such as being able to wash themselves and their clothes • managing toilet needs • being able to dress appropriately, for example during cold weather • being able to move around the home safely, including accessing the home from outside • keeping the home sufficiently clean and safe • being able to develop and maintain family or other personal relationships, in order to avoid loneliness or isolation • accessing and engaging in work, training, education or volunteering, including physical access • being able to safely use necessary facilities or services in the local community including public transport and recreational facilities or services • carrying out any caring responsibilities, such as for a child
How to make a complaint If you want to challenge a local authority decision, you should first complain to the relevant local authority itself. All councils are legally obliged to have a formal complaints procedure in place. They should publish information to make it clear to users that they are entitled to a review; explain how to request a review; and explain how to make a complaint. This information should be available on all local authority websites and given to you or your relative at the time of the assessment. If you are not satisfied with the local authority’s response and you believe the fault is down to a service or administrative error, your final option is to take the matter to an ombudsman. Once the ombudsman has decided whether it can legally deal with your complaint, it will then have up to 12 months to provide you with a resolution. For further information contact: Tel: 0300 061 0614 8:30am - 5:00pm - Monday to Friday www.lgo.org.uk
Following an NHS assessment for continuing healthcare or NHS-funded nursing care, you or your relative might be dissatisfied with the result. Reasons for being unhappy with a decision might be because: the NHS decides not to proceed with a full assessment of your relative’s eligibility for NHS continuing healthcare or NHS-funded nursing care after a full assessment, the NHS says that your relative doesn’t qualify for care, but you think that they should you have concerns about the process used to reach the decision If the assessment has taken place: 1. Ask to see it and ask for an explanation as to the criteria on which the decision was based. 2. If you can’t resolve the issue with the Clinical Commissioning Group, you need to escalate your challenge by requesting a referral to an Independent Review Panel (IRP), arranged by NHS England. 3. If you are still dissatisfied with the decision of the IRP, then you should be given information on how to refer your relative’s case to the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman, who make final decisions on complaints about the NHS in England, including where there is a dispute about what happened.
Making a complaint to the NHS If you are unhappy with the decision not to offer a full assessment to your relative, or feel the outcome of an assessment is not right, you can ask the Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) - who decide who is eligible for NHS continuing healthcare - to reconsider its decision. You will need to write to the CCG within six month of receiving the assessment. Helpline: 0345 015 4033 8.30am - 5.30pm Monday to Friday www.ombudsman.org.uk We make final decisions on complaints that have not been resolved by the NHS in England and UK government departments and other public organisations. We do this fairly and without taking sides. Our service is free.

Health & wellbeing at home There are lots of things you can do to live in as safe an environment as possible. Daylight and fresh air are essential to health and wellbeing. If you or the person you care for finds it difficult, or impossible, to go outside regularly, open a window for one or two hours a day which will help to recycle the air inside the home. This should only be done if it does not significantly lower the temperature inside.
Lighting Many accidents can be avoided simply by having clearly-lit rooms and spaces. The right lighting can also make a dramatic difference to comfort and emotional wellbeing. Wall-mounted, battery-operated lights can be a good (and cheaper) alternative to installing new electrical wiring. These come in a variety of styles and are operated by switch, pull cord or even movement sensors.
Heating Thermometers can help to ensure that rooms do not fall below a certain temperature. For living rooms, the recommended temperature is between 18 and 21°C. For other rooms, the recommended temperature is not less than 16°C.
Furniture Consider re-positioning furniture – or taking away unimportant furniture – if this will make it easier to enter, exit or move around certain rooms. This may be particularly sensible if a walking aid is being used. Remove any rugs or replace any carpet that could prevent the safe use of walking aids, or which could potentially cause falls.
Use assistive technologies There are many electronic products and systems that use technology to promote health and wellbeing in the home, by monitoring activity, managing risks, increasing security, helping the person you care for manage the important tasks within their daily lives, and bringing support more quickly when things go wrong.
Telecare Telecare systems can be linked to a call centre or to a mobile phone of a carer. Call centres are by far the most common option for home users of telecare, their primary advantage being that a call centre is staffed 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Carers who have asked for an assessment should always be made aware of the benefits of telecare. To find local providers of Telecare visit: www.housingcare.org

Take extra care in the kitchen The mixture of water, hot surfaces, flexible cables and electricity can be very dangerous. If appliances such as fridges, dishwashers and washing machines are fitted under worktops, getting to sockets may be difficult. Ideally, these appliances should be controlled by a switched fuse connection unit mounted above the worktop where you can reach it easily. More than half of all accidental house fires start in the kitchen. Government statistics show that the largest number of accidental reported fires caused by electricity in the home is due to people misusing electrical cooking appliances, including microwaves. • Check your plug sockets are not overloaded with too many electrical appliances as this can lead to overheating • Avoid storing objects on top of appliances like the microwave, which can block ventilation • Never try to get toast that is stuck out of a toaster while it is plugged in, and especially not with a metal knife as there are often live parts inside
Free fire safety check Fire is one of the biggest risks when it comes to safety in the home. Most Fire and Rescue departments in the UK offer Free Home Fire Safety Checks, you may also be eligible to have free smoke alarms fitted in your home. Contact Lincolnshire Fire & Rescue for further information Tel: 01522 580397.
Disabled Facilities Grant If you or the person you care for has a chronic illness or other form of disability a DFG could be available to people who need to make changes to their home. It could be used to fund work such as: • widening doorways • installing a stair lift • converting a downstairs room to a toilet or bathroom • fitting hand rails • making outside steps easier to use or installing ramps • adapting heating or lighting controls to make them easier to use The DFG is available to people renting a property, as well as homeowners. A family member, landlord or Home Improvement Agency can apply for a DFG on the disabled person’s behalf. If alterations cost less than £1,000, your local authority will often provide and fit these free of charge.
Home Adaptations
Independence
Confidence
If you or someone living in your property has a disability, you may qualify for a Disabled Facilities Grant (DFG) towards the cost of home adaptations and facilities, which can make it easier to get around safely at home and live independently. We can give you free advice on the DFG and other sources of funding which can pay for part or the whole of the work. We’re a registered charity with over 11 years’ experience in delivering a range of adaptations, including grab rails, stair lifts, access ramps, wet rooms, property extensions and conversions, so you know you're in safe hands.
Peace of mind Let us take care of the whole project for you, from the first plan to the last lick of paint. .................................................

Putting your affairs in order
It’s essential to plan for how your money should be handled in the event of an illness or death. Good planning will help make sure you or your family are ready to meet any of the costs that might arise. It will also allow you provide for your loved ones and ease the burden on them. Make a will If you haven’t already got a will now is the time to make one. If you want to make sure that your money and your belongings – your assets – go to the people or charities you want then you need to make this clear in a will. If you don’t the law will decide who they go to – and this might not be who you want it to be. Your will tells people who you want to be your executor – the person who sorts out your money and your will after you die. You can choose more than one person to be your executor, but ideally not more than four. Professional executors like solicitors or accountants will charge for their services. If you have children under 18, your will also says who should be legally responsible for looking after them if you die. If you die without having made a will – referred to as dying ‘intestate’ – the law specifies how your money will be divided. This means that your assets won’t necessarily be passed on in the way that you’d prefer. If you want to decide who gets what, you need to draw up a will. It’s possible to write one yourself, but even small technical mistakes can make a will invalid so it’s generally a good idea to get help from a solicitor or professional will writer. It’s important to note that if you have married since making a will, then your marriage is likely to have invalidated the will.
Advance Decision (Living Will) An advance decision is a decision you can make now to refuse a specific type of treatment at some time in the future. It lets your family, carers and health professionals know whether you want to refuse specific treatments. This means they will know your wishes if you are unable to make or communicate those decisions yourself. The treatments you are deciding to refuse must all be named in the advance decision. You may want to refuse a treatment in some situations, but not others. If this is the case, you need to be clear about all the circumstances in which you want to refuse this treatment.
21
You can refuse a treatment that could potentially keep you alive (known as life-sustaining treatment). This includes treatments such as ventilation and cardio pulmonary resuscitation (CPR), which may be used if you cannot breathe by yourself or if your heart stops. You may want to discuss this with a doctor or nurse who knows about your medical history before you make up your mind.
Advance statement about your wishes An advance statement is a written statement that sets down your preferences, wishes, beliefs and values regarding your future care. The aim is to provide a guide to anyone who might have to make decisions in your best interest if you have lost the capacity to make decisions or to communicate the
What does an advance statement cover? An advance statement can cover any aspect of your future health or social care. This could include: • How you want any religious or spiritual beliefs you hold to be reflected in your care • Where you would like to be cared for – for example, at home or in a hospital, a nursing home, or a hospice • How you like to do things – for example, if you prefer a shower instead of a bath, or like to sleep with the light on concerns about practical issues – for example, who will look after your pet if you become ill You can make sure people know about your wishes by talking about them. By writing your advance statement down, you can help to make things clear to your family, carers and anybody involved in your care.
Lasting Power of Attorney Nobody wants to think about a time in their future when they won’t be able to make their own decisions. It can also be a difficult subject to bring up with an older relative, but it’s something that everyone should think about. If things aren’t set up properly in advance of when they are needed, it can lead to all sorts of complications. Thankfully there are procedures in place to protect individuals and make it easier to deal with things, should the need arise. A Power of attorney (POA) allows you to choose someone else to deal with third parties on your behalf, for example banks or the local council. Certain types of powers of attorney go further, allowing you to choose someone else to make decisions on your behalf, should you not be able to do so in the future.
There are two types of Lasting Power of Attorney Property and Financial Affairs Lasting Power of Attorney: this covers things such as managing day-today finances, debts, benefits (such as the attendance allowance and personal independent payments (PIP)), buying or selling property. It needs to be put in place and registered while the donor has mental capacity and it can be used both before and after the donor has lost capacity. Health and Welfare Lasting Power of Attorney: this covers issues such as NHS treatment, care and housing. Again, it needs to be put in place and registered while the donor has mental capacity but it can only be used after the donor has lost mental capacity
Who to choose as your attorney Most people appoint their husband, wife, partner, other family member or a close friend as their attorney. It must be someone you trust completely.
Setting up a power of attorney You can get the forms and guidance you need to create a lasting power of attorney online at: www.gov.uk/government/collections/lasting-powerof-attorney-forms Setting up a power of attorney is a big step. You should make sure you understand all the implications, and you may want to get advice from a solicitor.
Pay for a funeral in advance Funerals can be expensive, but as decisions are often made under emotional stress and with an imminent deadline, this isn’t the best of circumstances for family to be shopping around. Paying for a funeral in advance will spare relatives from facing the cost of your funeral, and will specify how you want things to be done, and what you would like to take place at your own funeral Put your important papers and copies of legal documents in one place. Tell a trusted family member or friend where you put all your important papers. You don’t need to tell this friend or family member about your personal affairs, but someone should know where you keep your papers in case of an emergency

Learning disabilities ... Personal health budgets for people with learning disabilities
During the health check, the GP or practice nurse will carry out the following for the patient:
Personal health budgets offer a real opportunity to enable people with learning disabilities to live in their own homes or with their families, rather than in institutions.
• a general physical examination, including checking their weight, heart rate, blood pressure and taking blood and urine samples
Across England the NHS has already begun to offer personal health budgets and joint health and social care budgets to people with learning disabilities who have complex health needs or challenging behaviour. People with learning disabilities eligible for NHS Continuing Healthcare now have a right to have a personal health budget.
• assessing the patient’s behaviour, including asking questions about their lifestyle, and mental health • a check for epilepsy • a check on any prescribed medicines the patient is currently taking • a check on whether any chronic illnesses, such as asthma or diabetes, are being well managed
Everyone with a personal health budget can get support to think though how they would like to use their budget to meet their health and wellbeing needs.
• a review of any arrangements with other health professionals, such as physiotherapists or speech therapists
It is the responsibility of your CCG to advise people, and recommend a range of organisations who can offer local support.
The Annual Health Check may also be a good opportunity to review any transitional arrangements that takes place when the patient turns 18.
A personal health budget can be spent on any care or services that are set out in the care and support plan that has been put together with the NHS team or voluntary organisation working with the person – and this needs to be agreed by the CCG (clinical commissioning group).
• The GP or practice nurse will also provide the patient with any relevant health information, such as advice on healthy eating, exercise, contraception or stop smoking support.
Advocacy
Learning disabilities NHS annual health check
People with learning or physical disabilities can often struggle to be listened to and have their wishes understood.
The Annual Health Check Scheme is for adults and young people aged 14 or above with learning disabilities who need more health support and who may otherwise have health conditions that go undetected.
The British Institute of Learning Disabilities (BILD) works with people with learning disabilities and their families to make sure they have the right support to make choices and decisions about their own lives. www.bild.org.uk
People with learning disabilities often have difficulty in recognising illness, communicating their needs and using health services.
Mencap’s advocacy service enables people with a learning disability to speak up and make decisions about things that are important to them, while their Empower Me service provides personalised advocacy support for people with a learning disability. It aims to help people develop the skills, confidence and knowledge needed to voice concerns and secure rights. www.mencap.org.uk
Adults and young people aged 14 or above with learning disabilities who are known to their local authority social services, and who are registered with a GP who knows their medical history, should be invited by their GP practice to come for an Annual Health Check. The Annual Health Check lets the person with learning disabilities go to their GP practice and have aspects of their health checked. It also allows them to talk about anything that is worrying them.

Choosing the right home care agency If you find it difficult to carry out personal care routines – such as washing or dressing – home care services can provide the extra support that you need. Home care services (also known as domiciliary care) provide carers or personal assistants who can visit you at home to help with a wide range of tasks. Everyone has a right to expect certain standards in their care. Your care services should help keep you safe and well, but also treat you with dignity and respect. The law states you should always be able to express a choice in who provides your care. Here is a list of questions you should ask a home care agency; ensure you get all the answers that you need.
About the carers • Will I have a regular carer? • What will happen if my regular carer is off sick? • What happens if a carer is unable to get to me because of adverse weather conditions or a traffic accident? • How many different carers are likely to visit me? • What sort of training do the carers receive? Do they have an induction period? How often is their training updated? • What qualifications do they have? • Will carers keep written records of the care that has been given, and accurate timesheets for me to sign? • Can copies of the records be sent to me if I want them?
About your needs • How will you match the most suitable carer to my needs? • Will you be able to find carer(s) that can visit at the time I need care? • What happens if a carer and myself are incompatible? Could a different carer be requested? • What happens in the event of a medical emergency? Will the agency carer stay with me until help comes? Will they notify me of any problems? • How will carers get into my home if I cannot answer the door? How will that information be kept secure?
About the agency • Do you have a standard contract for work with private clients? Can we see a copy? • What are your hourly charges? Are there any minimum charges (such as a minimum number of hours per week)? • What happens on weekends and bank holidays? Is care provided? Is there an additional charge at these times? • How is payment required – by cheque, direct debit or some other way? How often is payment required? Monthly or weekly?
• What insurance do you have to protect my home, for example, in the case of damage to property, the carer making a mistake, or the carer having an accident in my home? • How do you ensure quality of care is maintained? What are your quality assurance policies and procedures? • Who should I contact if I have problems with a carer or the service provided? • Is it possible to try you for a short trial period initially, to see how it works out?
The benefits and drawbacks of home care services The benefits ... Home comforts: they allow older people to stay in their own homes for longer. Time: they may prevent, or delay, a move into sheltered housing or a care home. Stability: your relative can maintain contact with friends and their local community. Peace of mind: for you, and your family, that your relative is being looked after and is not alone. Flexibility: home care services are flexible and your relative can have as little, or as much, help as they need. Care can be tailored to fit their needs. Agency responsibility: most care is provided by agencies, which means that the agency is responsible for vetting staff and will cover absences if necessary. Duty of care: local authorities have a duty of care to provide help to those with eligible needs. Standards: care agencies must be registered with national regulators who check that they are working to set standards and, in England, rate their services. Cost: receiving care at home might be a lot cheaper than moving into a care home, depending on the amount of care needed. Pets: if your relative has pets, they can continue to live with them.
The drawbacks ... Different staff: with an agency, although the aim is usually to provide consistency of care, sometimes different staff may be used in times of staff sickness, holiday or when there is a shortage of careworkers. Careworkers will try but might not always call at the arranged times (for example, if they have to deal with an emergency at their previous call), which can be particularly difficult if the older person needs to be helped to the toilet. Geographical limits: your relative’s choice of care services may be limited by what’s available in their area.
25
Live-in care Live-in care is an increasingly popular alternative to an elderly relative moving into a care home. It enables them to stay in their own home and meet their changing needs. For some people it offers a way of continuing to live as independently as possible at home in their local community. Live-in care might suit your relative for a number of reasons including if they need help with: • Companionship • Personal care, such as washing and dressing • Taking medication when other aids aren’t effective • Cooking / Housework • Support to manage the risk of falls and other risks at home • Caring for a pet • Trips out, such as to the doctor or hairdresser • Continuing to enjoy some lifelong passions. This option is also attractive to people who may become confused by a new environment and find it difficult to adapt to change. This particularly applies to people living with dementia, where continuity, routine and familiar surroundings are very reassuring, important and improve quality of life. Live-in care also provides the supervision that someone living with dementia might need to keep them safe.
LJM
Many live-in careworkers are specially trained to deal with such conditions as Dementia, Parkinson’s, Stroke, MS or Palliative Care. Some providers also offer live-in nursing staff. For couples, the cost of live-in care can be significantly less than a residential setting and loving partners are able to stay together. In some cases where one has dementia, they are separated in residential settings. Cost: it isn’t cheap to have live-in carers on call 24 hours a day, although with the introductions of personal budgets and direct payments it can be possible for live-in care to be state-funded, depending on eligibility. Also, live-in care fees can be lower than the price of a residential home. The arrangement can be particularly cost-effective for couples, because they pay once for a live-in carer, and twice over for places in a care home. Living arrangements: live-in careworkers will require a private room in the house for their own use. From the point of view of your relative, not everyone is comfortable with having a stranger living in their home and there could be tensions about living arrangements, depending on how they work in practice.

Choosing the right care home Care homes may be arranged through the local authority but many people will want to arrange them independently. It is a good idea to visit several homes before making a choice. Make sure you spend enough time in each home to get a good idea of what it is like. The benefits and drawbacks of care homes If your needs can no longer be met at home, there are benefits to moving to a care home. Although there may be downsides too, knowing what to expect can help you make realistic decisions.
The benefits ... Safety: there is always someone around. Staff on duty 24/7: in a residential care home, someone is on call at night. In a nursing home, care is provided 24 hours a day. A room of their own room: your relative can usually personalise this with their own furniture, pictures and ornaments. Meals: regular meals provided and nutritional needs met. Companionship: opportunity to socialise with others of their own age and take part in organised activities or outings, where available. Peace of mind for family that a vulnerable older relative is being taken care of and is not living alone. Supervision of medication. No worries about household bills or upkeep. Better living conditions: the physical environment may be better – safe, warm and clean.
The drawbacks ... Choice: there may be a limited choice of homes with a vacancy for your relative, depending on their circumstances. Unfamiliar surroundings. Loneliness and loss of contact with neighbours and old friends.
Loss of independence, although a good home should encourage your relative to be as independent as they can be. Lack of privacy: this might be difficult for your relative to adjust to. Small living space: your relative won’t be able to take all of their furniture and personal possessions with them. Variations in care: all homes have to achieve a minimum standard to ensure they can be registered, but quality of care may vary from home to home. Doing your research, and asking around for recommendations, should help you avoid the less suitable ones (see Choosing a care home). Cost: care homes can be very costly, particularly if you have to fund your own care. If relying on local authority funding, you must be assessed as needing a care home. Sometimes you and the local authority might disagree on what is needed.
Planning ahead for respite care Remember that the need for respite care can occur suddenly, so there won’t always be lots of time to research and make decisions. So, it is worth checking what’s available in the area, before you need help. You might want to make a list of local agencies who can provide care at short notice or local care homes that offer respite care
Choice of accommodation The law says that where the local authority is funding accommodation it must allow the person entering residential care to choose which care home they would prefer.
Emotional effect: families can feel guilty that they are not looking after their relative themselves, even though this may no longer be practical. Your relative may feel rejected: it can help if you talk things through beforehand, possibly explaining that you or other family members are unable to give them the care that they need. Regular contact once they’ve moved in will also help.

YOUR home or care home? You do have a choice… Our expert care workers live with you 24/7 as a companion, carer and friend. We offer a genuine alternative to residential home care. Our mission is to give elderly and vulnerable adults the opportunity to remain safely in their own homes by providing 24 hour, live-in care. Each carer is matched to you based on overall care needs, personality, hobbies and interests, which means there’s some common ground from day one and genuine friendships can blossom. Maybe you’re cared for by a family member who needs a break, or you need help getting back on your feet after a hospital stay. Perhaps you simply require a companion to help with day-to-day tasks such as cooking, cleaning and shopping. Our packages cover all this and range from short term solutions through to ongoing support. We also offer complex care packages for those with more advanced care needs such as Dementia, stroke, Parkinson’s and palliative end-of-life care.
Because our care packages are tailored to meet your individual needs, we ensure you retain as much independence and dignity as possible.
