Finding out a good care home helps
you make choices about your care. There are many care homes that will claim to
offer promising services and will highlight that ‘registration of my care service’ is done from a great regulatory body. However, it is always better
to approach a care provider that is registered under the Care Quality
Commission (CQC).
Even after the care home, you have
selected has impressed you with the benefits of ‘registration of my care service’, make sure you have got reasonable
answers to the following queries. Let’s have a look-
Is it safe?
A good care home will give you
positive vibes and will make you feel safe and secured. The staffs and managers
will always look for ways to improve their services. Also, you should feel confident that your
belongings are safe as well. No matter the care home you choose must have a
very responsible and cooperative staff yet at the same time you should have as
much as possible.
Is it Effective?
The care home should give you enough
reasons to make you feel confident that you have done the right thing in
believing them and have moved on with ‘registration
of my care service’. The good
care home will always ask for feedback about their services like the quality of
food, the behaviour of s the staffs etc. You will always be asked about your
preferences before they offer any service.
Is it receptive towards your needs?
A caregiver must understand that your
needs will change with time and therefore it is their responsibility to provide
you services accordingly. The staffs
will always show the interest to keep you happy and contended and will not stop
you from meeting your family or closed ones or even help you to keep up your
hobbies.
Is it well-led?
Above all, your care home must be
handled by the right staffs. There should be a cordial relationship between the
residents, staffs and managers. This will ensure that the residents’ concerns
are thoroughly investigated.
