Advice & Guidance

Choosing a Care Home

When you visit a care home you should immediately get a sense of whether or not it is somewhere you could feel happy and safe, and a place you could call home. The type of care home you choose will be based on your specific needs.

At Orchard Care Homes, our care is tailored to the resident's needs, and we aim to provide as much independence as possible, whilst treating each resident with dignity and respect. There is a real sense of community at Orchard Care Homes and there is always a warm welcome waiting for you.

We frequently review each resident’s care, to ensure it is the most appropriate for their needs and well-being. We also encourage feedback so that adjustments in care can be made as and when they’re needed.

Tailored Recommendation

All new residents are assessed according to their needs. This could be carried out by the local authority or social services and referred to Orchard Care Homes for a secondary assessment, or directly with Orchard Care Homes for privately funded residents.

Once assessed, we will only recommend homes to you that are suitable for your needs. We always encourage you to visit the homes and meet the Care Home Managers, staff and residents.

If your requirement is immediate we will only introduce you to homes with availability, or we may introduce you to a choice of homes that you can review at a later date. Our dedicated team of professionals can talk you through this process.

Paying for Care

Depending on the type of care needs and provision, or even the location, care home costs can differ and you are welcome to speak to one of our professional advisors to discuss this in further detail relating to your situation.
