care home guides

Counsel and Care has developed two invaluable resources for older people and their carers looking for care in a care home, or researching the options for paying for care. The Complete Care Home Guide covers everything you need to think about before moving into a care home, starting at the considerations before you move into care, and covering choosing a care home, paying for a care home, and living in a care home. There is also a section which looks at what you can do if you have any problems once you live in a care home. The Brief Care Home Guide covers all of these issues in a shorter and more easy to read version. They are available to download free of charge below.

Any donation you can afford, large or small, will help us continue our valuable work of getting the best care and support for older people, their families and carers. Make a donation
