What should I consider when looking for a dementia care home for my loved one?

There are several practical things you should look for: 

  • The type of care provided – does it meet the current and future needs of your loved one? With degenerative illnesses, you should ensure that the provider can meet current and future needs. You want a place where your loved one can be settled and not have to move again as their illness progresses. 
  • Location – is the commute easy for you to visit regularly?
  • Budget – will the local authority cover the whole costs, or will you need to top up fees? Will you need to fund the whole cost of care?
  • What do the fees cover?
  • Reviews and ratings – official reports and family reviews can help you understand the quality of care provided.
  • Staff – are they knowledgeable, experienced, approachable, supportive, friendly?
  • Facilities – what facilities are available and are they of a good standard?
  • Activities – what enrichment activities does the home provide? Can you participate?
  • Food – can they meet your dietary and religious requirements? Is the food appetising?

  • Smell – does the home have any unsavoury smells such as urine?
