Planning and paying for home care in Richmond upon Thames
The care needs assessment
An assessment comes before agencies, not after them. Anyone who appears to need care and support can request one free of charge whatever their income or savings, and it produces the written record of eligible needs that providers will work from. A practitioner from the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames will discuss washing, dressing, eating, taking medication, moving safely around the home and keeping in touch with other people, then set out which needs are eligible for support. Anyone giving regular unpaid help has a separate right to a carer's assessment, so ask for both in the same conversation.
Costs and contributions
Where needs are found eligible, a financial assessment of income and capital follows. Care may then be funded in full, funded in part with a contribution from the person receiving it, or paid for privately. Families who qualify can request a direct payment and commission an agency of their own choosing rather than accept one arranged for them. Privately funded home care across London is normally charged by the hour, with higher rates at weekends, on bank holidays and for shorter calls, while live in support is quoted by the week. Ask every agency for its rates, minimum visit length and notice period in writing before anything is signed.
Choosing an agency and what to check
What the ratings show
All twenty five agencies listed here are registered with the Care Quality Commission. Seventeen have been rated Good and eight are not yet rated, having registered too recently to be inspected. A missing rating is absent information rather than a warning, but it means you should ask more: how long the agency has operated, who registered it, what training carers complete before their first visit and whether the manager has run a service before. For rated agencies, read what inspectors found about the punctuality of calls, how medicines were administered and recorded, staff training and how concerns raised by families were handled.
Matching the agency to the person
Agencies vary in what they will take on. Some concentrate on short personal care visits, others provide longer companionship calls, dementia support, overnight cover, live in arrangements or help settling somebody home after a hospital stay. Providers in this listing such as Richmond and Kingston DCA, Absolute Care and Richmond upon Thames Crossroads Caring for Carers work in different ways. Confirm that carers travel to the specific address, ask who writes the care plan and check how quickly it can be revised when needs increase.
Questions that predict reliability
Ask how many different carers will attend over a fortnight and whether a small consistent team is kept for each person. Find out how you would be told when a visit is running late, who answers the telephone at weekends and how complaints are recorded and resolved. Ask how often care plans are formally reviewed and what happens when a regular carer leaves. Continuity of staffing is the single thing families comment on most once care is under way, and it is far easier to establish before signing than to fix afterwards.
