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 ).

 the name of the person who is co-ordinating the care plan

 You have had an assessment to look at the support you need to be discharged safely.

 information about any charges that will need to be paid (if applicable)

 You have been given a written care plan that sets out the support you’ll get to meet your assessed needs.

What might be in a care plan?

 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.

If you have limited capacity to make your own decision, the Mental Capacity Act will apply.

It is worth thinking about appointing a deputy or enacting a welfare power of attorney before you go into hospital.

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.

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.

 who to contact if there’s an emergency or if things don’t work as they should

 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.

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

When you are discharged from hospital

A care plan will be drawn up, detailing the health and social care support for you, and you should be fully involved.

 transport is arranged to get you home

The care plan should include details of:  the treatment and support you will get when you’re discharged

 your GP is notified in writing

 who will be responsible for providing support, and how to contact them

 you’ve been trained how to use any equipment, aids or adaptations needed

 when, and how often, support will be provided  how the support will be monitored and reviewed

9

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.  any carers will be available if needed  you have any medication or other supplies you’ll need

 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.

Are you looking for residential, nursing or dementia care?

Nursing care provided at Church View an d Stallingborough Lodge

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.

Consent to treatment

Whether you are choosing care for yourself or a loved one, it is a very personal and important decision.

Shire Care Homes has four individual homes across North East Lincolnshire providing residential, nursing, dementia and respite care.

So you can make an informed decision, they should clearly explain any proposed examination, treatment or investigation, including the risks and benefits.

The Rivelin

The right to refuse treatment You have the right to refuse treatment, even if others consider your decision unwise, as long as you understand the consequences of your decision

Welfare benefits while in hospital Your State Pension doesn’t change, no matter how long you are in hospital.

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.

Your right to social care & support Local authorities have a duty to assess anyone who appears to have care and support needs.

Your local authority should: • assess your needs and give you advice, whatever your financial circumstances • provide information about services and support options available to you in your area • give you a carer’s assessment if you are an unpaid/family carer The assessment by the local authority is important because it helps them work out what your difficulties are and what services will help you most.

Often, only minor assistance is needed – such as meals on wheels and help with washing or dressing, yet these services could make a big difference to your life If your local authority decides you are eligible for social care support, they will carry out a financial assessment to determine how much you will need to pay towards your care, if anything.

If you are assessed by social services and are found to be eligible for support, the next stage is to draw up a care and support plan, or in the case of a carer with eligible needs, a support plan.

What is a Care Plan?

A care plan (sometimes called a care and support plan, or support plan if you’re a carer) sets out how your care and support needs will be met. You should be fully involved in the preparation of your care plan, and you and anyone else you request should also get a written copy. The care plan must set out: • the needs identified by the assessment • whether, and to what extent, the needs meet the eligibility criteria • the needs that the authority is going to meet, and how it intends to do so • for a person needing care, for which of the desired outcomes care and support could be relevant •

for a carer, the outcomes the carer wishes to achieve, and their wishes around providing care, work, education and recreation where support could be relevant

Your care plan should help you to: • live independently • have as much control over your life as possible • participate in society on an equal level, with access to employment and a family life • have the best possible quality of life keep as much dignity and respect as possible

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

An adult’s needs are only eligible where they meet all three of these conditions.

• the personal budget

The specified outcomes measured include:

• information and advice on what can be done to reduce the needs in question, and to prevent or delay the development of needs in the future

• managing and maintaining nutrition, such as being able to prepare and eat food and drink

Your care plan should be individual to you, and you should be allowed to have as much involvement in the development of your plan as you wish.

13

• 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 Local authorities do not have responsibility for providing NHS services such as patient transport, but they should consider needs for support when the adult is attending healthcare appointments.

The local authority should not refuse to meet eligible needs on the grounds of cost, although if there is more than one option, it is allowed to choose what it believes is the most cost effective one.

If your needs do not meet the national eligibility criteria, the local authority still has to give you information and advice on what support might be available in the community to support you.

What is Social Care?

Many people’s first impression or thoughts of social care might be a residential care home. In fact, there’s a wide variety of social care services available and most people will be able to have care provided in their home.

The kind of social care support you can get depends largely on your needs. This means the type of condition you have, or the severity of your disability.

For example, if you have trouble walking, you may simply require some equipment to help you remain mobile and independent.

But if you develop a condition that seriously affects your mental capacity or your ability to move and look after yourself, you are likely to need a much wider range of social care services. It is worth taking time to think about your specific needs and what you think you might need to help you achieve the best quality of life you can.

Care and support services might typically include: Equipment to enhance your independence The ability for you to remain independent sometimes hinges on small factors and tools, such as a jar gripper (to help you remove lids) or ways to raise your seat (so that you can get up more easily).

Equipment can also help with weightier issues, for example, hoists to help people with mobility problems get on and off chairs or toilets, or in and out of the bath or bed. The equipment you may be able to access could include monitoring devices that check whether you have left the house if you have a condition, such as dementia, that causes confusion and wandering. Find out more in alarms and telecare.

Help in your home You may want to have someone who can come to your home and give you the support you need to live your life. This can include help with tasks such as getting dressed, help with using the toilet, washing, preparing and eating food, cleaning and laundry, getting out and about, and taking part in leisure and social activities.

Find out more about homecare.

If you are unable to manage in your home, even with help and assistance, you may need to consider whether you should move to a care or nursing home.

Your local authority will be able to provide you with information and advice on what services are available in your local area.

Community support and activities Some social care services can be provided to help you continue to play an active role in your community and to get out and about and do the things you want to do. For example, you may want to work or to partake in religious or cultural events such as a festival or a sports match. Social care services may be able to support you in a wide range of ways to enable you to continue to do these things, for example a community transport service.

Your local authority will be able to provide you with information and advice on what services are available in your local area.

Your right to social care & support Day centres

Financial support

Day centres provide meals and an opportunity to socialise and do activities that might not be available at home and may provide respite for Family Carers

If you are in need of social care you may be able to get information and advice on how to cover the additional living costs you may incur. For example, you may be able to access certain financial benefits for daily living, or be able to access funding from charities to cover the costs of expensive equipment. Your local authority should be able to talk you through some of these money matters as part of your social care assessment.

Your local authority will be able to provide you with information and advice on what services are available in your local area.

Adaptations to your home A common way that social care can support ill or disabled people to live independently at home is simple adaptations to the home. If you have difficulty living at home because of your condition, it is often a better option to improve your home than to move somewhere new.

For example, depending on your condition, you might be able to get lowered kitchen surfaces and storage, wider doorways to accommodate wheelchairs or walking frames, or improved flooring to prevent trips and falls.

Your local authority will be able to provide you with information and advice on what services are available in your local area.

Residential care If living at home is no longer a realistic or practical option, you may want to consider residential care.

There are many different types of ‘residential care’ – it may mean a permanent move into a care home for older people, or it could be a stay in a home for younger adults with disabilities, or a home for children.

Residential care may be privately owned, or run by a charity or the local authority.

The main types of residential options are: • Residential care homes • Residential care homes with nursing care • Extra care and sheltered housing • Supported living • Retirement villages Deciding on a long-term stay in residential care is a significant decision financially, practically and emotionally. You will need to think about your own preferences and decide what services will meet your needs now, as well as being flexible enough to take account of your future care needs. It is not always an easy decision. Independent advice can be important in helping you make the right decision, taking into account all the important factors.

Your local authority will be able to give you details of information services they commission locally. Many local and national charities will also be able to provide information and advice.

15

Information & advisory services and advocacy People who need care may have difficulty in being able to exert their rights, get the services they need and are entitled to, or simply not know or understand what is available to them. Information and advice are often a key part of any care assessment that your local authority undertakes.

This information could go a long way to helping you get the support you need.

Charities are another great source of social care information – particularly those associated with conditions, such as the Alzheimer’s Society, Mind, or Scope, but also those related to different aspects of care, such as Carers UK or Independent Age. Some people may find that an advocacy service can help them exert their rights, particularly if you have a disability and you believe you are treated unfairly. An advocacy service can act as a champion to ensure you get fair and equal treatment and access to services.

Support for carers If you look after a person who is disabled, has a longterm health condition or is elderly and frail, you are a carer. Carers can get help with their caring role, and by enabling the person they care for to get the support they need, they can make their own life easier.

For example, it’s important that carers have time for themselves, and one of the best ways to arrange breaks from caring is to ensure that you have had a carer’s assessment. This will help identify how substantial and demanding your caring is and how much support you are likely to need.

Other care support You may also want to think about whether you need healthcare support if you have care needs relating to an ongoing health condition. If this is the case, then it is worth considering whether the NHS can offer any treatment, medical equipment or support that can help you live more fully with your condition

Recognising mental health and support Mental health, emotional wellbeing and resilience is all about how we cope with what life throws at us. It concerns the way we feel about ourselves, conduct relationships, handle stress or deal with loss.

Good mental health and resilience are fundamental to good physical health, relationships, education and work, as well as being key to achieving our potential.

Mental health facts At least one in four people experience a diagnosable mental health problem in any one year, and one in six experiences this at any one time.

• More than half of those with a common mental health problem have both depression and anxiety.

• There are approximately 570,000 people with dementia in England, a figure that could double in the next 30 years.

•

Nearly 850,000 children and young people aged five to 16 years have a mental health problem – about 10% of the population. Fewer than one in 10 accesses treatment.

Common mental health problems such as anxiety, depression, panic disorders, phobias and obsessive compulsive disorder can cause great emotional distress, and can affect how you cope with day-to-day life and your ability to work.

Less common conditions, such as psychosis, can make you experience changes in thinking and perception severe enough to significantly alter your experience of reality. These conditions include schizophrenia and affective psychosis, such as bipolar disorder, and can have the same lifelong impact as any long-term physical condition.

Admitting you are struggling does not mean you are “mentally ill”, that doctors will automatically put you on medication, or you will have to immediately tell your employer you are mentally unwell.

Many issues can be managed without the help of a GP by using the variety of sources of help now available, whether it’s through books, local organisations or online.

Even if you need professional help, there are choices you can make along the way. Mental illness is treatable and, with appropriate support and treatment, people do recover. Many move on with their lives and are able to care for their family, contribute to the local community, and get back into employment or training.

Mental health & wellbeing for carers Coping with stress Stress, anxiety and depression can affect anyone, but the pressure and expectations of caring can make carers particularly vulnerable. In turn this can make caring more difficult to cope with.

17

Stress can affect your sleep and you can become more exhausted, tense, irritable and low. You can also feel as though you are losing control of your life and you have little way of regaining this control. One of the first steps in dealing with stress is to acknowledge that it is happening and to think about the reasons. Starting to deal with the causes, even by taking very small steps, helps you feel more in control. The earlier you do this the better. Just talking about how you feel with someone can help you find a way to deal with it.

Joining a carers group could offer you the opportunity to share your experiences with other carers. Or you may prefer to use carers online forums such as those offered

by Carers Trust and Carers UK.

Dealing with depression Depression is when your feel persistently low or sad and can’t find any pleasure in life for weeks and months rather than just a few days. Many of us feel like this sometimes, but depression is when these feelings last longer than a few days.

Depression is an illness, with real and sometimes frightening symptoms. It’s not a sign of weakness or something you can ‘snap out of’ or deal with by ‘pulling yourself together’.

If you think you may be suffering from depression you should see your GP as soon as possible. Many people wait a long time before seeking help for depression from their GP. The treatment and support options for depression are very effective and the sooner you get help the sooner you can be on the way to recovery.

Keeping in touch and meeting people Carers can sometimes feel lonely or socially isolated as a result of their caring responsibilities, which in turn impacts on their health.

You may have found that caring has affected the relationship you have with the person you care for, as well as relationships you have with others.

Whilst caring responsibilities can make it difficult, it is important that you try to keep up your social connections as these are good for maintaining your own wellbeing. This may include keeping in touch with family and friends – even if it’s just a quick phone call, joining online carer networks or visiting your local carers’ service. It may also include taking a little time out to engage in any hobbies you have and doing the things that make you happy.

If you find that you don’t have any time to do the things you enjoy, then it is important to find ways to take a break from your caring role.

Acknowledging resentment and guilt Like many carers, you may find yourself caught up in a cycle of resentment and guilt. You may no longer feel like your life is your own and may feel guilty for feeling that way. At the same time, you may feel that you should be doing more for the person you care for, or feel as though you aren’t doing a good job.

It’s important that you allow yourself to feel these perfectly normal feelings and not get overwhelmed by guilt. It is also important to try to find time to take care of your health and wellbeing, rest and re-energise, which may help you cope with some of these feelings.

Keeping healthy There are simple steps you can take to ensure that your body and brain remain as healthy as possible as you age.

Keeping active It’s never too late to get active. Any physical activity for ten or more minutes that isof at least moderate intensity (i.e. raises your breathing rate) is beneficial to health.

Supported Living Supported living is a concept that was developed as an alternative to institutional care for people with learning disabilities The main principles of supported living are that people with learning disabilities own or rent their home and have control over the support they get, who they live with (if anyone) and how they live their lives.

Supported living assumes that all people with learning disabilities, regardless of the level or type of disability, are able to make choices about how to live their lives even if the person does not make choices in conventional ways.

Why choose supported living services?

• Physical Disability • Personal Care • Long Term Conditions • Domestic Support

Supported living services may provide a good option in some circumstances – offering flexibility, and perhaps even better value for money than some of the alternatives, whether you fund your own care or receive a personal budget.

The first time you hear about supported living services may be during a care needs assessment by social services.

They will let you know about supported living services available locally if it seems like they might meet your needs.

Always read the most recent CQC inspection report. Ratings are updated regularly. All care providers listed are rated good or higher on CQC. Data correct at time of print date.

How domiciliary care services can help Domiciliary care services provide careworkers or personal assistants who can visit your relative at home to help with a wide range of jobs, including:  getting out of bed in the morning  washing / dressing  maintaining personal appearance, such as brushing your relative’s hair  help and support with toileting, helping using continence aids  preparing meals and drinks  help with eating and drinking  picking up prescriptions giving, or prompting to take, prescribed medication  health-related tasks, as agreed with medical practitioners or community nursing nurses  nursing care from a registered nurse  shopping (either with, or on behalf of, your relative)  collecting pensions  helping with money, managing and paying bills  getting out of the house and meeting friends  supervision and companionship  getting settled for the evening and going to bed.  domestic services  laundry Assistance can make a huge difference, not only to the life of your loved one, but also to you as a carer. The level of support and care in the home that each person needs will vary. Your relative might need assistance with some, or all, of the above tasks; they might need care for only one hour a week, a couple of hours a day, or to have a full-time or live-in careworker.

Home care services can be used temporarily – for example, while your relative recovers from an illness or operation – or long term. One of the benefits of home care services is their flexibility, which allows your relative to choose the right level of help and support for them.

Local authorities have an obligation to provide some services, including personal care or preparing meals for those who have no other way of getting a meal, but they are unlikely, in most cases, to provide help with household tasks except where it is part of a more complex care arrangement.

CQC Ratings By law, care providers have to display the ratings The Care Quality Commission give them. They must display them in the places where they provide care, somewhere that people who use their services can easily see them.

They must also show their ratings on their website, if they have one.

How to choose a good care home You need to make sure it’s got everything you need, in a place you’ll be happy, at a price you can afford.

Deciding to make the move to a care home can be a difficult decision and families usually play a vital role in helping their relatives pick the right one.

Choosing a home in a hurry is never a good idea but often there can be pressure to find somewhere quickly, especially if a hospital is keen to discharge a patient.

If there is a strong possibility that your loved one may need greater levels of care in the future, it can be wise to choose a home where this extended care is possible.

Some homes are very large and this can have its advantages, such as better entertainment facilities, including having a minibus and obviously, a wider social circle. If your relative is quiet and shy, they may be better off in a much smaller home.

Average cost of Residential Care in North East & North Lincolnshire 2018/19: £72.80 per day £509.60 per week £26,500 per year Average cost of Nursing Care in in North East & North Lincolnshire 2018/19: £110.95 per day £778.84 per week £40,500 per year

There are four basic types of care homes Residential Care Provide living accommodation with meals in a dining area and help with personal care, such as washing and dressing.

Nursing Homes Everything that is in a residential care home together with medical care from a qualified nurse who is on site 24 hours a day.

Care homes with dementia care They are designed to make people with dementia feel comfortable and safe.

Dual-registered Care Homes Residential & Nursing They accept residents who need both personal care and nursing care. This means that someone who initially just needs personal care but later needs nursing care won’t have to change homes.

Care homes for adults aged 18 to 65 There are also residential care homes that provide care and support for younger adults with complex needs, for example: • severe physical disabilities • learning disabilities • brain injury resulting from an accident • mental health problems They can care for adults with more than one health problem and some have expertise in providing care for adults with alcohol or drug dependency. These care homes may offer permanent residence or provide care for a temporary period.

Your right to choose your care home and its location If the local authority assess your needs and assist with your care home placement, you should be told about your right to choose your care home and its location, subject to certain conditions. This is based on the choice of accommodation regulations.

Where you express a preference for a particular home and specified conditions are met, the local authority must provide, or arrange for, the provision of your preferred accommodation. Additional costs may need to be met by you or another person, called a ‘top-up’.

Care home contracts Once you’ve decided on a care home, you’ll need to sign a contract to agree terms. Before you sign, it’s essential to read the contract carefully and understand what you’re agreeing to.  Self-funding: if your relative is paying for their own care, the contract will be between them and the care home.  Local-authority payment: if the local authority is funding your relative’s care, the contract will be between the local authority and the care home.  Shared payment: if you or someone else is paying a top-up fee to the care home, there will be two contracts. One between whoever is paying the top-up and the local authority, and another between the local authority and the care home.

If your relative is responsible for signing the contract, it might be helpful to suggest that you go through the paperwork together. If you have a power of attorney, you might need to sign on behalf of your relative A care home contract should cover:  the cost of care, including the notice period for any increases  any deposits or advance payments required  details of any trial period offered  what is and isn’t covered by the care home insurance  the type of accommodation provided  the level of care to be provided  any additional fees and charges that may be incurred  the cost and details of any extra services, such as meals, laundry, personal care (eg hairdressing, chiropody), television and phone bills  what happens if residents are temporarily absent from the care home (eg in hospital)  the terms of cancellation of the contract, both on your part and on that of the care home, including the required notice period  the complaints procedure.
