About elderly care
Most providers list care for older people, because it is the commonest CQC registration. In practice it means support with getting washed and dressed, meals, medicines and mobility, along with company and watching for changes in health. What separates providers is staffing, continuity of carers and how closely the care plan fits the individual.
What to ask about elderly care
- Will the same small team of carers or staff look after them?
- What activities and company do you offer, not just personal care?
- How do you manage medication, and who checks it?
- How is the care plan written and how often is it reviewed with the family?
- What happens at weekends, at night and in an emergency?
