What elderly care involves
This is the registration most providers hold with CQC. Care for older people includes personal care (washing, dressing), meals, medication, help getting about, company and keeping watch on health. Since most providers list it, look at staffing levels, carer continuity and how carefully the care fits the individual.
Questions worth asking about elderly care

- What happens at weekends, at night and in an emergency?
- How do you spot early signs of illness, falls or dehydration?
- How much notice do you need to change or add care?
