Planning and Paying for Care at Home in Haslemere

Two questions the council answers

There are two questions the council answers: what help is needed, and who pays for it. The assessment of need is free, open to anyone who may require support, and it records how someone manages washing, dressing, medication, meals, mobility and safety. Ask Surrey County Council Adult Social Care to carry it out and to arrange the financial assessment that follows. If you provide the care yourself, ask for a carer's assessment at the same time, since it looks at the support you need in order to continue.

What home care costs

Visiting care is normally charged by the hour or by the visit, with higher rates at weekends and on bank holidays, and some agencies set a minimum call length. Where capital falls below the national threshold, the council may fund an agreed package, either by arranging it or through a direct payment that lets the person choose their own agency. Above that threshold, care is paid for privately. Ask for the rates in writing, with any travel charges, notice periods and the terms for changing or cancelling visits.

Choosing a Provider in Haslemere and What to Check

Three Good reports, read properly

In Home Care Haslemere & Grayshott, Haslemere Homecare Ltd and Maita Care Services Ltd all hold a Good rating from the Care Quality Commission, so read the reports rather than stopping at the rating word. Look at what inspectors say about staffing, about the supervision of carers in people's homes and about how the service responds when something goes wrong, since that is where the quality of visiting care is settled. Check how recently each inspection took place, because a judgement can be a few years old and managers change.

The practical questions about visits

Ask how long each call lasts, how many carers would come in a week and whether a small regular team can be promised rather than whoever is free. Ask what happens when a carer is ill or delayed, how a missed visit is picked up and who answers the telephone at night and at weekends. Ask how the care plan is written and reviewed, and how medicines, meals and personal care are recorded at each visit. If needs are likely to grow, ask whether visits can be increased or live in support arranged later. Ask as well how the agency tells a family when something has gone wrong, since that answer reveals a great deal about how it is run.
