What is a Care Home?

A care home is a place of residence for older persons who require some level of support or assistance in their day-to-day life. 

Care homes that are residential care homes can provide support with getting dressed, bathing, mobility, cooking meals, administering medication and other such activities. 

Nursing homes are another type of care home that provide a higher level of support than residential homes and will be able to support those with serious physical disabilities or complex conditions. 

Many care homes, residential and nursing, will be able to support older persons living with dementia but in more severe cases, it may be that a home with dementia specialisms is required.

If you feel your loved one may require a care home, Autumna can help save you the time and stress typically involved by sending you a FREE personalised list of care homes. Click here to get your free list.

Testimonials

Helping you to find a Care Home

A sympathetic, helpful ear at a stressful time. That phone call helped us make progress in the hunt for somewhere for Dad without spending hours on the phone or searching online. So much easier to be presented with a list and know that initial contacts were being made whilst we could concentrate on Dad in hospital and his partner at home. Thank you!

Jill

You made the process of finding a care home suited to our needs very much easier. It is such a daunting task and the homes that have contacted me all met our criteria.

Jane

Autumna were very helpful on the phone and then sent me a fair list of care homes to choose from. I am now close to making a decision. Thank you for your guidance!

June

An appropriate care home shortlist helped demystify a very difficult search as there are so many homes in the area.
