Sorting through care homes in Rochdale

This is a list where the reports earn their keep. With a sizeable minority of homes carrying a Requires Improvement rating, the difference between a home worth visiting and one worth avoiding is not visible from the grade alone, and it takes a little reading to find.

Working out what a rating actually reflects

Twenty seven homes here are rated Good, which is where most families will start. For the fourteen at Requires Improvement, open the report and look at which of the regulator's five key questions was marked down. A home found wanting on governance or record keeping is in a different position from one where concerns were raised about safety or the treatment of residents. Check the inspection date too, and whether the manager who was in post at the time is still there, because a change of leadership can alter a home considerably.

Where a home has no published rating

Seven homes on this list carry no rating yet. That normally reflects a recent registration or a change of provider rather than any adverse finding. In those cases look at the registration details, how long the home has been operating under its current owner, and who manages it day to day. A visit does more work than usual where there is no report to read.

What to look for when you go

Visit at an ordinary hour and stay through a mealtime. Watch whether staff speak with residents in passing rather than only while completing a task, and whether people who cannot easily ask for help are still being noticed. Ask what staff turnover has been over the past year and how many agency staff cover nights. Ask how the home keeps families informed between visits, and how it handles a complaint, since the answer to that tends to reveal the culture faster than anything on the wall.

Arranging a placement and paying for it in Rochdale

The care needs assessment

Anyone who appears to need care and support has a right to a free assessment, whatever their savings. The adult social care team at Rochdale Metropolitan Borough Council carries it out, with a financial assessment following separately. The care assessment records what help is needed with washing, dressing, medication, mobility and night time support, and whether those needs can still be met at home. It establishes whether residential care is the right answer before anyone commits to it. Asking for one obliges nobody to accept what is proposed.

Fees and contributions

The financial assessment weighs income and capital against the national threshold. Above it, households generally meet the fee themselves; below it, the council contributes on a sliding scale, and the treatment of any property depends on who else lives in it. Funded nursing care and continuing healthcare are decided by the health service rather than the council and are worth asking about in their own right. On the fee itself, ask in writing what the weekly figure covers, which items are billed separately, how often fees are reviewed, and what happens if savings fall to the threshold during a stay.
