Planning and paying for nursing care in Brighton and Hove
Establishing the need first
Nursing care rests on a clinical requirement, and that has to be established rather than assumed. An assessment of need is free, open to anyone who appears to require support and unaffected by savings. It examines mobility, continence, medication, nutrition, memory and the nursing input involved, and produces a care and support plan setting out what a home would have to deliver. Request one from Brighton and Hove City Council adult social care, which is responsible for assessments and for agreeing the funded support that follows. Relatives providing unpaid care can be assessed in their own right at the same time.
Three routes to funding
The council route depends on a financial assessment of income, savings and capital, which in a permanent placement normally includes the value of a property unless a partner or certain other relatives still live in it. Because nursing is involved, NHS Funded Nursing Care contributes towards the nursing element and is paid directly to the home, while NHS Continuing Healthcare can meet the whole cost where a person's needs are primarily health related rather than social. Each is assessed separately, and families are often told about only the first, so raise all three by name.
Fees and the longer view
Ask what the weekly charge includes and what is billed on top, whether chiropody, hairdressing, continence products or transport to appointments. Ask how often fees are reviewed and what the last rise amounted to. Ask what the home does when a self funding resident's capital runs down and council support becomes necessary, because that answer decides whether a further move could be forced at a difficult time.
Choosing a provider in Brighton and Hove and what to check
Getting past a uniform picture
Glentworth House holds the one Outstanding judgement in this listing, twenty three homes are rated Good, one sits at Requires Improvement and two have no published rating. With so many sharing a single word, the reports carry the real information. Start with the date of each inspection, since a judgement made some years ago may describe a home that has changed hands or managers since, then read what was recorded about staffing, medicines and how residents spend their days.
Nursing cover is the question to press
Ask how many registered nurses are rostered by day and overnight, and how much of that cover comes from agency staff rather than the home's own team. Ask how falls, pressure areas, chest infections and end of life care are handled, and how readily a GP attends. Ask how long the manager has been in post and what turnover among nurses has been, because a home that cannot retain nurses will struggle with everything depending on them.
Judging a home in person
Visit at a mealtime, when the pressure on staff is greatest, rather than during a quiet afternoon. Watch how residents needing help to eat are supported, how long call bells ring before anyone comes, and whether staff use people's names as they pass. Notice whether anyone has been left alone with nothing to occupy them. Then return on a different day at a different hour before deciding anything.
