Arranging a nursing placement in North Somerset and paying for it
Establishing the need before choosing a home
Nursing care is defined by a clinical requirement, and that requirement has to be established rather than assumed. An assessment of need is free, available to anyone who appears to require support and unaffected by savings. It examines mobility, continence, medication, nutrition, memory and the specific nursing tasks involved, and produces a care and support plan setting out what a home must be able to deliver. Contact North Somerset Council adult social care to arrange one, as it is responsible for assessments and for agreeing any funded support that follows. Carers providing unpaid support can ask to be assessed in their own right.
Three separate sources of funding
The council route rests on a financial assessment of income, savings and capital, which in a permanent placement usually counts the value of a property unless a partner or certain other relatives still live there. Because nursing is involved, two NHS routes also apply. Funded Nursing Care contributes towards the nursing element and is paid directly to the home. Continuing Healthcare can meet the entire cost where a person's needs are primarily health related rather than social. Each is assessed separately, and families are rarely told about all three unless they ask.
Getting clarity on fees
Ask what the weekly figure covers and what is charged in addition, whether that is chiropody, hairdressing, continence products or transport to appointments. Ask how frequently fees are reviewed and what the most recent rise was. Ask what the home does when a self funding resident's capital runs down and council support becomes necessary, because that answer determines whether a further move could be forced at the worst possible time.
Choosing between homes when every rating is the same
Reading past the rating
With all thirty four homes rated Good, the label offers no way to separate them. The reports do. Check how recently each inspection took place, since a judgement from some years ago describes a home that may since have changed hands or managers. Look at what inspectors wrote about staffing levels, medicines management, how residents spend their days and how families are involved. Two homes carrying the same word can read very differently once the detail is in front of you.
Nursing cover is the decisive question
Ask how many registered nurses are rostered during the day and overnight, and how much of that cover comes from agency staff rather than the home's own team. Ask how the home handles falls, pressure area care, infections and support at the end of life, and how readily a GP will attend. Ask how long the manager has been in post and what nurse turnover has been, because a home that cannot keep nurses will struggle with everything that depends on them.
Judging the place itself
Visit homes such as Clarence Park, Mount Elton Nursing Home, Winscombe Hall or Sycamore Lodge at a mealtime rather than mid afternoon. Watch how residents who need help to eat are treated, how long call bells ring, and whether staff use people's names as they pass. Notice whether anyone has been left alone with nothing to do. Then return on a different day at a different hour before committing to anything.
