Compare support for the individual
Ask each home how it would support communication, personal care, mobility, eating and drinking, familiar routines and any nursing needs. Share relevant information during assessment; a diagnosis alone does not establish which home is suitable.
What to compare on a visit
- The room, shared spaces and outdoor areas your relative could use.
- Staff arrangements and how families receive updates.
- Activities and cultural or language preferences.
- Fees, additional support charges and how changing needs are reviewed.
- Practical visiting arrangements and accessibility for your family.
Arrange assessment and compare quotes
Contact the homes you are considering, discuss assessment and request a written quotation. Compare the care included and any extra charges. See the England funding guide for council and NHS assessment routes.
Can we book before an assessment?
You can request a visit or discuss preferred dates, but a placement needs confirmation of assessed suitability, availability and agreed terms.
Does the group website show live vacancies?
No. Contact each home for current availability. The comparison lists homes and services, rather than confirmed places.
