Our admissions process is designed to help you make the move into our home as simple and pleasant as possible.
Admission Process
Pre Admission
On contacting our home and having visited the home, should you wish to be placed with us, we carry out a “needs assessment” calling on any specialist advice and reports as necessary. This is an essential process to allow us to identify that our care home is the best place for you and that the service provided is one that will support and meet your requirements.
Our assessment criteria will cover a full range of health and social needs to ensure we know as much as possible about each individual. It is very important that as much information as available is provided during this process. All information will of course be treated confidentially. The assessment process helps our care team to build an appropriate support plan for each individual.
Having identified that a place in our care home is appropriate and all parties have agreed to proceed with the placement, will we agree on a mutually convenient date for the placement to commence.
After Admission
After joining our home, each individual plays an integral part in drawing up their person-centred
care plan based on the information collated through the assessment process. This Care Plan details the care that is required by an individual and provides our care team with the information to meet their care needs and lifestyle choices.
While we value the important involvement of family and friends into this process, the best interests of the person joining us, their choices, views or needs will always take precedence.
The care plan is continually developed and reviewed, with each resident, family, friends and other professionals involved in the individual’s care and wellbeing.
