Welcome
Welcome to the 2013/14 Wiltshire Care Services
Directory which provides information about the
range of social care services available in Wiltshire.
At Wiltshire Council we’re committed to
supporting vulnerable adults and older people. This
is why we’re investing in care services which help
you live independently in your own homes and
communities for as long as possible.
Supporting you to live independently in your
own homes underpins our Help to Live at Home
(HTLAH) programme. Since it was introduced in
2011, it has resulted in a number of new services
which have been developed by local people, care
providers and front-line staff. This has ensured the
services we provide are focused on what you need
and want.
We understand that for some of you living in your
own homes is simply not an option and living in
supported accommodation or a care home is your
preferred choice. Therefore, this Directory contains
useful information about care homes which will
help you choose the right home for your needs.
It also provides details of services that support
those of you who care for others.
If you need any more information, please do
not hesitate to contact us. Our Customer Advisors
are dedicated to supporting you whether you are
a customer, a carer, or someone who is looking
for more information about adult care services in
Wiltshire and can be contacted on 0300 456 0111.
The Council has appointed/identified a number
of partners to deliver a range of services to you in
your home. These companies are: Wiltshire Medical
Services who provide a response service linked to
telecare (assistive technology); Telecare provided
by Aster Living; Community equipment and
practical help in the home provided by Medequip,
independent support planning and brokerage
services provided by the Wiltshire Centre for
Independent Living and specialist financial advice
provided by Care Fees Investment and Ashcourt
Rowan. Details of these organisations and the
services they provide can be found in the Directory.
In addition four companies have been chosen by
the council and NHS to provide care and support
services to older people and others who need some
extra assistance to ensure they can continue to live
the lives they want as independently as possible.
Each company works in a different part of the
county, see map below:

Throughout Wiltshire, Celtic Care Services will provide you
with a high quality personalised care and support service to help you
to retain or regain your independence and
enable you to stay in the comfort of your own home.
Established in 2001, Celtic Care Services is a family owned and run domiciliary care provider. We are the
domiciliary care provider of choice in Chippenham, Corsham, Calne and surrounding towns and villages.
This is borne out by our customer base predominantly being made up of individuals who fund their
own care or are in receipt of Direct Payments. We have also recently expanded the areas we cover to
include Wootton Bassett, Swindon, Marlborough and surrounding areas with the opening of our new
branch in Chiseldon.
Domiciliary care is a real alternative to a residential or nursing home. We offer a wide range of flexible
services including all aspects of personal care including help getting up in the morning or accessing a
bath or shower, social care including
assisting you to go shopping or
accompanying you to groups or social
activities, and also complex care for
people with more individual health care
needs. These services are available to
children, adults and the more elderly
members of our community and can be
long term or for short periods; to help
during holidays or just to enable you
to regain your independence. All our
services are individually tailored to your
preferences and are continually adapted
to meet your changing needs.

First steps
Wiltshire Council’s aim is to support people so they
can live independently for as long as possible. We
will work with customers, carers and care providers
to make this happen.
This guide outlines what support the council will
put in place to help you. We also have staff on hand
to discuss any long-term support you may require.
This will help ensure you have all the information so
you can make the right decisions for your care needs.
For information on care or support options your
first step is to contact our customer advisors on
0300 456 0111.
Assessment
If you want to take the next step and need to
access services you can ask for a community care
assessment. Everyone is entitled to receive an
assessment regardless of their financial situation.
You can be referred for an assessment by:
• yourself or a relative, friend or neighbour
• a social worker or health professional such as a
doctor or health visitor
• any other agency.
You can have a carer, friend, relative or advocate
with you to help put your views and wishes
forward. Your doctor, district nurse or other health
professional who knows you well can also be
involved if you wish. If you do not speak English, or
if you use British Sign Language, we can arrange for
an interpreter to be present.
We will meet with you so that you can tell us
what your needs are. Our assessments focus on
what you want to achieve. We will encourage and
assist you to contribute as much as possible to your
assessment, which means we will talk through with
you how best to meet your needs and choices.
Care and support planning
Following your individual assessment, we will
look at whether you are eligible for services paid
for by the council (see below). Everyone who is
eligible for support will be offered a choice of staff
arranging care, or the transfer of funds which they
can use to purchase their own care. This is called
a direct payment. You will be offered support and
assistance throughout this process either from the
council or from the Centre for Independent Living –
see advertisement on page 23.
We can help those who are not eligible for
financial support from the council with information
and advice and with assistance in finding services.
Alternatively, you may wish to contact one of the
local agencies listed on pages 15–23.
People in greatest need are our priority
Regardless of your financial situation, you are
entitled to information and advice from us about any
care and support needs you may have.
We follow central government guidance set out in
a document called ‘Prioritising of Needs Guidance’,
which has been issued to local councils across the
country. The aim is to make sure all decisions on
who receives financial help with care and support
are made fairly, openly and consistently. This means
each council has to set criteria to make sure support
is allocated fairly and to those in greatest need.
Eligibility criteria is divided into four bands
representing the seriousness of the risk to your
independence: ‘critical’, ‘substantial’, ‘moderate’ and
‘low’.
Currently in Wiltshire you are eligible for funded
care and support services if your needs are assessed
as ‘critical’ or ‘substantial’. This ensures that people in
the greatest need will get most help.
There are many council services which are not
means tested, including bus passes and Blue Badges.
For more information about this call our customer
advisors on 0300 456 0111 and ask for a copy of the
‘Fair Access to Care Services’ leaflet, or download the
leaflet from our website:

Community living
Care in your own home
We know that lots of people want to stay in their
own homes and we want to help you to do this.
However, if you are finding it difficult to manage,
you could consider using the services of a care
and support or domiciliary care provider. These
companies employ staff who can help you with
bathing, washing and dressing, as well as practical
support with shopping, laundry and cooking
meals.
Staff will be trained in personal care and safety
procedures, moving and handling, hygiene and
infection control and first aid. If you need nursing
care at home, many of these care providers employ
registered nurses.
These companies can also help after a stay in
hospital with shopping, cleaning and preparing
your house for your return and so on.
Agencies providing care at home are monitored
by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) which
regularly inspects agencies and produces reports
on their findings which can be found on the CQC’s
website: www.cqc.org.uk
Equipment for independent living
If you are struggling to manage everyday tasks such
as bathing, climbing the stairs, or getting up from
your chair, it may be that an item of equipment could
make the task easier. If you would like an assessment,
contact our customer advisors on 0300 456 0111,
or you can contact Medequip on 01249 815052.
Medequip has assessors available to advise you and
provide you with the equipment you need.
Your request may be dealt with immediately by the
person you talk to on the telephone, but if not they
will arrange for someone to visit you and assess how
best to resolve your difficulties. They may be able to
suggest alternative ways of doing something which
could mean there’s no need for any equipment.
Telecare and response service – keeping you safe
Telecare is sometimes called ‘assistive technology’. It
aims to promote your independence, improve your
safety at home and provide reassurance for you and
your carers. It usually consists of a base unit linked to
a telephone and a personal pendant which is worn
around the neck, on the wrist or attached to a belt.
Sensors automatically monitor the home
environment. These are linked to the base unit
without the need for wiring and can detect potential
dangers such as gas, smoke or overflowing water.
When the alarm is activated, trained staff at a
monitoring centre will respond and, if necessary,
arrange for someone to visit you at any time of the
day or night. They may also contact the emergency
services if necessary.
This call centre monitoring and response service is
provided to us through Wiltshire Medical Services.
If you are interested in Telecare, we can discuss
the options with you so that you can decide which
sensors will assist you. If you want more information,
you can telephone our Customer Advisors on 0300
456 0111, Medequip which provide this service
under contract to us can be contacted directly on
01249 815052.
Both Telecare and the response service can be
purchased for a small weekly charge.
Adapting your home
If you have mobility problems, you might benefit
from adaptations to your home. This is another
service we can provide.
A case co-ordinator will be allocated to you to
make an initial assessment of what you need. Major
changes will involve occupational therapists and
referral for a means-tested Disabled Facilities Grant
to help with some or all of the costs. If you are on a
low income, you may qualify for a full grant.

Care at home agency checklist
These questions may be useful when considering
using the services of a domiciliary (care at home)
provider to help you build up a picture of how your
care needs will be met in your own home.
For care packages which have been arranged
by us, contracts and care plans will have been
completed by your care manager and the agencies
used will be accredited by the Care Quality
Commission.
People arranging and funding their own care,
either privately or through a direct payment, can
© 2013 Care Choices Ltd
choose their own worker or care agency.
It is important that people have choice and
control about how they are supported. Before
deciding on which agency will support you, ask
them to discuss and agree a support plan with you.
This should cover the aspects to your care that are
important to you.
There are a wide range of activities or resources
in your community and your agency should be able
to discuss how you can access these so you can
meet people with common interests.

Domiciliary care agencies – some things to consider:
• What experience does the agency have in your
particular field of need? Can they supply references
for you to check?
• What is the agency charging per hour? What is
included in that price?
• How long has the agency been operating?
• How can you contact the agency in an emergency
or outside office hours?
• How many carers would the agency assign to
care for you and would you see the same one
every day? If not, how does the staff rota operate
and what happens if your carer goes on holiday
or is sick? Will you be notified in advance that a
different carer will be attending?
• If you’re not happy, how easy is it to make a
complaint?
• Home care agencies providing personal care, must
be registered and inspected by the Care Quality
Commission. Ask to see a copy of their registration
certificate.
• If this is a private contract, ask for a copy of the
agency’s contract terms and read these carefully
with someone you trust. Get as much help as you
can going over it and ask any questions you may
have before signing anything. The Citizens Advice
Bureau or Age UK could help with this. Contact
details can be found on page 44.

Providing quality care in your own home
Carewatch North West Wiltshire has been helping
people remain independent at home for over 12 years.
We pride ourselves on the quality of our service which
is driven by our expert skills in recruiting the right care
workers.
Our care workers receive exemplary training and ongoing development leading to recognised qualifications.
We have won awards for the training that we provide
and we support and encourage all of our staff to excel
in their career.
Our clients tell us that continuity of care is a very
important part of the service we provide so when you
choose Carewatch to support you, or a loved one at
home, you will have peace of mind that the same care
worker will be there for each visit, and at the same
agreed time.
Carewatch can provide you or a loved one with, personal
support, complex care, palliative and respite care, light
domestic duties such as shopping and cleaning, and
administration of a Direct Payment or Individual Budget.
Carewatch home care is a flexible service, adapting and
changing to meet your requirements, this could involve
for example, increasing your care when a family carer is
on holiday, has other commitments or is ill.
In the UK there are nearly two million people receiving
care from family and friends, we recognise the need
for these carers to be supported to retain a degree of
independence for themselves. In response to this need,
Carewatch have teamed up with Carer Support Wiltshire
to provide free training to unpaid carers, and can assist
with providing carer cover if required.
This is an excellent opportunity for your carers to meet us
and experience the high quality training our care workers
receive. All our free training is carried out alongside new
and existing staff, so you will get a real feel of what
Carewatch is all about.
Carewatch can provide a complete package of care,
or can work with your existing care and support team;
we provide a totally flexible service. For a short video
introduction to Carewatch, please scan the QR code
below.
We take a person centred and integrated approach to
the care we provide, listening to the needs and wishes
of the client, their family, and working alongside other
medical professionals as necessary.

01225 719333

Home improvement agency
This agency will work with you if you are receiving a
Disabled Facilities Grant (DFG) for a major adaptation
to your home such as installing a stair lift or a level
access shower.
However, should you wish to carry out adaptations
privately or are not eligible for a grant but would like
some support managing it for example someone to
source builders/oversee the work, they can do this
for you, but they will charge a fee.
Contact Aster Living on 01380 735343.
Handyperson service
As finding someone to do small jobs can be
difficult, we commission a handyperson service.
The service can help with small jobs such as
replacing a tap washer, tacking down loose
carpeting to prevent trips, installing a grab rail to
assist you up a step. You can access this service
whether you live in your own home or in rented
accommodation.
There is a charge for this service, but if you
receive low income benefits you may be entitled
to the labour costs free of charge up to a certain
amount, but, there is always a charge for materials.
For more information or to request the service
contact Aster Living 01380 735343.

Occupational therapy
Occupational therapists can help you lead a more
productive, active and independent life using a
variety of methods, including the use of adaptive
equipment. They can assess your home for hazards
and point out things that contribute to falls.
The reason you need occupational therapy can
determine how you access the service. Shortterm conditions, for example if you need support
following an operation, will mean you will access
services through the NHS. Speak to one of the
healthcare professionals treating you. They will
discuss your needs with you and decide if you
would benefit from occupational therapy. They
can arrange an assessment with an Occupational
Therapist (OT) as part of your care.
For long-term conditions, such as a permanent
physical disability, occupational therapy is usually
accessed through your local council. You should
contact us to arrange an assessment with an OT, or
you can be referred for an assessment by:
• your GP or consultant (specialist doctor)
• a nurse
• another healthcare professional;
• a social care professional.
If you do not want to access occupational therapy
through the NHS or Wiltshire Council, you could
contact an occupational therapist directly. If you
decide to see a private occupational therapist,
make sure they are fully qualified and are a member
of a recognised body, such as the British Association
of Occupational Therapists (visit: www.cot.co.uk).
Only healthcare professionals who are registered
with the Health Professions Council (HPC) are
allowed to use the title of Occupational Therapist.
You can check that your OT is registered by
checking the Health Professions Council online
register at: www.hpcheck.org.
An OT can carry out a health and social
assessment to identify what areas of your everyday
life are causing problems. They will discuss your
needs with you and explain what help is available.
An assessment and any advice or information they
give you should be free.

Community resources
There are many different resources in the various
communities in Wiltshire ranging from day centres
providing a hot meal, some company and activities
to keep fit, to walking groups, reading groups and
so on.
Further information and details on what activities
are available in your area can be obtained from Age
UK Wiltshire and Age UK Salisbury District. These
organisations are funded by us to provide support
and advice to the majority of lunch clubs and day

Age UK’s local contact details.
Other help that is available Support for carers
A carer is someone who provides unpaid support to
a family member, partner, friend or neighbour. This
could be because they are ill, frail, or disabled, or
have mental health or substance misuse problems.
Anyone can become a carer. Carers can be any
age and may or may not live with you. If there is
someone who helps and cares for you on a regular
basis, they will be a carer.
We understand that the caring role can be both
satisfying and exhausting. Carers are entitled to an
assessment and may be able a range of services.
More information is available on the website:
www.wiltshire.gov.uk/adultcare/carers
To find out more about support for carers contact
your local carers’ support agency listed on page 44.
Respite care and short stays
Carers sometimes need a break and this can be
provided in several ways.
1. You can go into a care home yourself for a week or
two to give the person who looks after you a break
2. Home-based respite care can be arranged when a
care worker moves into your home
Support from the NHS
NHS Continuing Healthcare is ongoing care arranged
and funded by the NHS, when it has been assessed
that an individual’s primary need is a health need.
It can be provided in any setting. In a person’s own
home, it means that the NHS funds all the care that
is required to meet the assessed health needs. In
care homes, it means that the NHS also makes a
contract with the care home and pays the full fees
for the person’s accommodation as well as their
care. For further information contact the Continuing
Healthcare Team, Wiltshire Primary Care Trust on
01380 733919.
A national policy has been drawn up by central
government that sets out the types of conditions that
will meet the eligibility criteria for continuing care.
Currently these are:
• NHS Continuing Healthcare which is provided if
you have extensive healthcare needs. This is free
of charge.
• Continuing Care is a package of care that involves
services and funding from both the NHS and
ourselves.
3. Family-based respite care may be arranged when
you move into another family’s home for a period.
The best option for you and your carer will depend
on your needs, the urgency of the situation and
personal choice and cost. There are a number of
different schemes in Wiltshire; contact our customer
advisors on 0300 456 0111 for advice.
If you are thinking about long-term care, but have
had no experience of living in a care home, you may
wish to book in for a short stay to see what it’s like.
This will help you make an informed decision. If you
have nursing needs, you can get additional help with
fees. See ‘Care homes with nursing’ on page 31.

Other help that is available continued You can ask for an assessment by health and social
care professionals if you think you may be eligible for
either NHS Continuing Healthcare or Continuing Care.
They will visit you to identify and prioritise your needs
and the assessment will be used to decide what
services will be provided, where and who funds them.
If your needs change, regular reviews will be carried
out and your care and/or funding arrangements will
change to meet them. You can pick up a leaflet about
Continuing Care from your GP or hospital.

People with mental health problems
There are two locality based specialist mental
health social work teams in adult care which
provide support for adults with mental health social
work needs. The team is responsible for completing
assessments and reviews and for arranging
specialist placements or services including shortterm supported housing or vocational support.
The initial point of contact to access mental
health services is usually your GP and assessments
are carried out in conjunction with your GP and the
Avon & Wiltshire Mental Health Partnership NHS
Trust, the NHS mental health provider in Wiltshire.
The mental health social work team is also
responsible for co-ordinating assessments under
the Mental Health Act 1983.
For information on care or support options your
first step is to contact our customer advisors
on 0300 456 0111.
The Avon and Wiltshire Mental Health Partnership
NHS Trust (AWP) provides specialist mental health
services based on individual need which help
people to find the best way to recover and stay
well. The initial point of contact to access mental
health services is your GP. They will discuss with you
whether help and treatment is best provided from
primary health services, or whether a referral to
AWP for specialist services is needed.
AWP offers a Patient Advice and Liaison Service
(PALS) which is a free, confidential and impartial
service available to everyone who uses AWP
services, their families, carers or anyone who needs
advice, information, support or guidance with a
particular issue.
PALS can help if you:
• are worried and not sure what to do or where
to go
• need clarity about a situation
• want someone to listen to your experience
of services
• need information and help.

Residential dementia care checklist
© 2013 Care Choices Ltd
This offers a list of things to look for in care homes
specialising in dementia. Please use it in conjunction
with the care homes checklist on page 35.
Residents
The best indication of a good home is that the
residents appear happy and responsive.
 Are there rummage boxes around the home to
stimulate residents?
 Are residents taking part in activities?
 Are residents talking to each other, staff and visitors?
 Do residents look well dressed and groomed?
 Do residents get to choose their clothes every day?
 Are people supported to stay independent and do
things for themselves e.g. getting dressed, making
food etc.?
Access
If the person with dementia needs, or is likely to need,
equipment or adaptations you may want to check that:
 there are adequate signs and cues for different parts
of the home such as dining room and bathroom
 the home has a policy about locking external doors.
Bedrooms
You may want to find out whether the person with
dementia can have a single room and whether
residents are encouraged to bring in some of their
own furniture and possessions to increase familiarity.
Activities
Residents should be stimulated without feeling stressed.
 Are reminiscence activities available?
 Are residents able to compile memory boxes?
 Do staff compile life story books, including
photographs and mementoes?
Staff
It is important to note whether staff seem friendly
and caring towards residents and whether they treat
residents with respect.
 Do they have any training and experience in
dementia care?
 Will the person with dementia have a member
of staff particularly responsible for their care?
 Is there a member of staff you can talk to about
your own worries about the person with dementia?
Manager/head of home
A manager who is caring as well as efficient can make
all the difference to a home.
 Does the manager have a knowledge of dementia
and can they deal with difficulties that may arise in
an understanding way?
 Is there a full assessment at home before a
resident is admitted?

29
Dementia care
If you are worried that you or someone you know may
have dementia, it is important that you talk to your
GP as soon as possible. They will be able to rule out
any other illnesses or conditions that may have similar
symptoms to dementia, including depression and
infections.
Once your GP has checked for any easily treatable
causes, then they will be able to talk to you about
having an assessment. They may refer you to
the memory service, which is for people who are
concerned about their memory and think it is
affecting their day to day life. Here an assessor will talk
with you about your memory difficulties, complete
some further checks and discuss the impact of any
problems or issues.
Sometimes getting a diagnosis can take time, but
this should not put you off.
If you do not feel confident about talking to your
GP, there are local charities you can talk to. Alzheimer’s
Support and Alzheimer’s Society also have a dementia
adviser service that offers personalised information
and signposting for people with dementia and their
carers – see page 44 for contact details.
For information about dementia care services,
such as care and support in your home or
residential and nursing care homes, contact
Wiltshire Council on 0300 456 0111.
Support in the community
As it can be best for the person with dementia to stay
in their own home for as long as possible, a range of
community care services is available to facilitate this.
We can help you to access care in your home; sitting
services, which provide a break for any carer you may
have; advice on equipment and adaptations; day care
centres and respite care.
These services can be provided directly by
registered providers to those who do not require
financial help. However, we will still be willing to offer
an assessment of need. You may have a choice of
which agency you receive your services from, whether
or not we assist with the funding of your service.

Accommodation
Wiltshire Council’s Adult Placement Service
This service provides long-term accommodation,
short-term stays, respite and day activities to:
• people with a learning disability
• people with a mental health difficulty
• older people
• people with physical disabilities, head injury or
sensory impairment
• people requiring ‘Home from Hospital’ services.
Our service is provided in the households of approved
‘adult placement carers’ who offer support or care as
required by the person placed with them.
Once a person has been referred to us, usually by
their care management team, we match them with an
adult placement carer who has a vacancy. A series of
introductions are arranged to help them get to know
each other before deciding whether or not to set up
an adult placement. Our team then monitors each
placement to help ensure that the arrangement is an
enjoyable and fulfilling experience for all concerned.

which is also known as ‘Shared Lives’, please

Sheltered housing
For some people sheltered or supported housing
can offer an alternative to a care home.
There is a diverse range of sheltered housing
30
schemes in Wiltshire. Some are bungalows; some
are flats with communal facilities. All of the stock
is managed by different registered providers
This Directory’s helpline 0800 389 2077 – information on choosing and paying for care
Sheltered housing continued
(landlords). The landlord is responsible for the
upkeep and maintenance of the building and
grounds and housing services such as communal
lighting and heating. You pay rent to your landlord
for your home and service charges to your landlord
for utilities and maintenance of the scheme in which
you live. Your service charge includes the provision
of an alarm service to access help 24 hours a day,
seven days a week.
Sheltered housing can be rented or owner-
occupied accommodation.
To apply for sheltered housing, you can download
the application form from the Homes 4 Wiltshire
website and return it to the Homes 4 Wiltshire team.
Alternatively, there is an easy read form available
with pictures to download, or you can contact the
office for a copy to be sent to you.
Website: www.homes4wiltshire.co.uk
Extra care housing
Extra care housing is a growing part of the housing
market. It can be owned, rented, part owned/
rented (shared ownership) or leasehold. Extra care
housing can broadly be described as housing into
which a range of care and support services can be
delivered on-site 24 hours a day.
Extra care is gaining a reputation for offering
accommodation and care to people who would
otherwise be frequent users of acute services,
largely because they cannot look after themselves
in unsuitable housing. Models of extra care are
various, because it is a concept rather than a
housing type.
Generally, an extra care scheme is a development
of flats and/or bungalows with a manager and
the availability of care and support for tenants/
leaseholders 24 hours a day, usually supported by a
lifeline and other technological assistance. There is
normally a café or meal provision available and an
additional range of services and activities which are
open to tenants/leaseholders and others living in
the surrounding area.
For further information, please contact customer
advisors on 0300 456 0111.
Residential care including care homes that provide nursing
What is a registered home?
There are two types of residential home:
• Care homes (personal care only)
If you are reasonably active but would like greater
security and care, a care home offering only
personal care may be the best option. Personal
care includes bathing, feeding, dressing and help
with moving but it must be paid for if your capital/
savings exceed £23,250. See page 38 for more
information.
• Care homes with nursing
If you think you may need nursing care in a home,
you will need to be visited by a social worker
or a care manager to determine what care you
will need. This might be in your own home, or
in hospital, or in a care home. You will be fully
involved in planning your care needs.
If a care home providing nursing care is the best
solution for you, your care manager will give you
information to help you find a home that meets your
care requirements. The cost of the nursing care part
of your fees is paid by the NHS to the home. The
current amount is £109.79 per week.
It is important that you get your nursing
determination done before you go into the care
home. Personal care is not paid for by the NHS
and must be paid for if your capital/savings exceed
£23,250. See page 38 for further information.
When looking for appropriate care:
• remember that it could be your home for life
• check that the home is properly registered
• remember the care available must suit your needs
• a careful and honest assessment by the care
provider should establish whether the home
matches all your needs, but bear in mind that your
requirements may change
• consider if the home environment is sufficiently
safe/secure
• ask what activities and facilities are offered
• ask if the care home normally does business with
us at fee levels we accept and, if not, should >>

My Home Life
‘My Home Life’ is a UK-wide initiative, sponsored by
Age UK, City University and Dementia UK, aimed at
promoting quality of life for those who are living, dying,
visiting or working in care homes for older people. Its
focus is on “what makes life good in care homes now,
what could make them better and how might we
get there”. ‘My Home Life’ has a website which gives
information and examples of good practice.
www.myhomelife.org.uk
Wiltshire Council as part of its commitment to
working with care homes to improve quality of life has
invested in the My Home Life programme. Over the
past four years the council has supported more than 30
care home managers to participate in the Leadership
Support Programme which gives the skills to integrate
the best practice themes detailed below into the dayto-day culture of their care home.
‘My Home Life’ identifies 8 key themes that focus on
what best practice in care homes for older people looks
like in the 21st century.
1. Maintaining Identity – by staff learning more about
residents’ lives it enables them to adopt a more
person-centred approach to tailor care and support
to each individual’s needs.
2. Sharing decision-making – everyone’s contribution
being valued to help the care home function as a true
community.
3. Creating Community – through the relationship
between residents, their family, friends, staff and the
wider community.
4. Managing Transitions – moving to a care home is a
major transition in life which may involve considerable
losses, but with appropriate planning and support can
bring benefits and improved quality of life for older
people and their families.
5. Improving Health and Healthcare – recognition that
health is fundamental to quality of life.
6. Supporting Good End of Life – an emphasis on
personal need and dignity through which the resident,
their relatives, friends and staff are supported.
7. Keeping Workforce ‘Fit for Purpose’ – using research and
sharing good practice to identify and meet the education
and training needs of the care home workforce.
8. Promoting a Positive Culture – promoting a positive
perception of life in care homes for all those involved
and highlighting good practice.
These eight themes provide a good starting point for
conversations with care homes when making decisions.
Inspecting care services and checking quality
The Care Quality Commission (CQC) registers,
inspects and reviews all adult social care and
healthcare services in England in the public, private
and voluntary sectors. This includes care homes,
care homes with nursing, home care agencies and
NHS services, amongst others.
Since October 2010, all care providers have been
registered under a system introduced by the Health
and Social Care Act 2008, which brings adult social
care, independent healthcare and the NHS under
a single set of essential standards of quality and
safety for the first time.
Following an inspection, each care home and
home care agency is given a report of how it rates
against national essential standards of quality and
safety. Each service’s report can be seen on the CQC
website: www.cqc.org.uk
34
The focus of an inspection is on the standards of
care that people who use the service receive and
whether they are happy with their care. Virtually all
inspections are unannounced.
For any enquiries or to register a concern or
a complaint, contact CQC by telephone: 03000
616161 or by email: [email protected]
The Care Quality Commission Citygate , Gallowgate
Newcastle upon Tyne NE1 4PA
When considering care services, it’s always a good
idea to check a service’s inspection report on the

Paying for care
The information here has been developed by a
group of public organisations and charities to help
people make better and more informed decisions
about paying for care and to encourage people to
get information and advice about the use of their
money in this regard.
Personal budgets
Personal budgets are an amount of money councils
can allocate to help people get the support they
want due to disability, frailty or vulnerability.
Everyone who is eligible for funded social care will
be allocated a personal budget once their needs are
agreed.
There is no obligation for people to manage
their budgets themselves, and different options
are available to help plan and arrange suitable care
for each individual. People will be able to use their
budget through a cash payment, services arranged
by us, or a mixture of both.
Direct payments
If you have been assessed as needing community
care services and are capable of managing a direct
payment, with assistance, if necessary, you can
receive a payment and organise and buy services
yourself.
Direct payments can be used to arrange support
designed to meet your individual needs. We will
agree these needs with you and write them in your
care plan.
A direct payment is sometimes given so that
you can arrange a short break (respite) or buy any
equipment that you need to stay independent.
They can also be used to pay for help with:
• personal tasks such as getting up, washing,
dressing, going to bed etc
• practical tasks such as food preparation, cooking,
shopping and other related tasks to help you to
live in your own home.
You can choose to buy care from an agency or
employ your own personal assistant.
If you are a carer, you can get a direct payment
to pay for support or services which will help you
to carry on caring, although you cannot use the
payment to support the person you care for.
Direct payments cannot be used for:
• health services
• permanent care in a care home or care home
with nursing
• services which are managed by us – such as our
in-house home care service.
The amount of money you receive depends on the
level of your needs and the support you require to
live in your own home. We take into account what
it would cost if we provided the services instead.
Unless you are a carer, you will usually have to
pay a contribution to the cost of your services.
If you are interested in learning more about
having a direct payment or wish to access
support with an existing direct payment, we have
commissioned the Wiltshire Centre for Independent
Living to provide this service. They can be
contacted on 01380 725400. You can also contact
our customer advisors on 0300 456 0111.
Personal finances One in four of us may need long-term care or
support, but few of us like to think about it until it
happens. Care can involve help in your own home
as well as care homes or care homes with nursing.
If you, or a member of your family, need care and
support now or in the future there are a number of
important things you need to consider.

The following is intended to help you get
information and advice in relation to your personal
finances and how to pay for care if you:
• are planning for retirement
• are an older person considering getting help with
care and support for yourself
This Directory’s helpline 0800 389 2077 – information on choosing and paying for care
Personal finances continued
• have a need to fund care immediately
• are a family member, a carer or have Power
of Attorney (PoA) or deputyship of somebody
needing to fund their care
• have a child with disabilities and want to ensure
they have financial security after you die
• are disabled and want to plan your financial
future to make the best use of compensation
payments, or if you think your ability to work and
support yourself financially may lessen over time.
Seeking financial advice and help
Later-life advisors
Advisors specialise in the financial needs of older
people. Those advisors who have taken steps to
become independently accredited can offer added
reassurance that they offer the practical help and
guidance needed to make the right decisions at the
right time.
The later life advisor accreditation scheme has been
developed by the standard-setting body, the Financial
Services Skills Council (FSSC) in collaboration with the
specialist financial services consultancy.
There are three main ways of paying for advice.
• Fees – by paying the advisor a fee, either at an
hourly rate or a set fee.
• Commission – by paying indirectly through
commission, which is deducted by the product
provider from the product(s) you invest in. As
well as the initial commission charged when
the product is taken out, there may be annual
commissions, known as ‘trail commissions’.
• Fees and commission – by paying a combination
of fees and commission.
Not all advisors offer all three payment options.
Make sure the advisor offers the payment option
that you want. Ask the advisor to explain what you’re
paying for, how much it will cost and how you will
pay for it. If you want to pay by commission, ask your
advisor how this will be calculated and whether this
has any effect on the advice you will be given. Make
sure you understand and are comfortable with the
payment arrangements before proceeding. If you’re
getting investment advice, ask your advisor if the
costs include a review of your investments from time
to time or if you must pay for that service separately.
You can access both general information about
paying for care and information about accredited
financial advisers in your area through the Society of
Later Life Advisers (SOLLA):
www.societyoflaterlifeadvisers.co.uk.
The MoneymadeclearTM service also gives
information about finding independent financial
advisors.
We have identified two such companies
accredited by SOLLA to provide these services to the
people of Wiltshire. These are:

Surrey CR3 6RE
Telephone: 0845 077 5655

Web: www.carefeesinvestment.co.uk
Local specialist based in Dursley, Gloucestershire
There are other companies that also offer this
service, but it is important to ensure they are
accredited by the Society of Later Life Advisers.
Before you think about the likely costs of any care
and support, it is important that you get information
and advice about the options open to you, both
regarding the type of services that might suit you,
and also whether we might contribute to the costs. If
you don’t you may make poor decisions about either
the care you organise, or about how you pay for it, or
both.
If you need ‘nursing care’ you may be entitled
to funding from the NHS for all or part of the cost;
you should ask us, your hospital or GP whether you
would be entitled to this.
There are different ways to pay for long-term care.
If you need care and support immediately or in the
near future first check with us about any support we
give. We assess your care needs and those of your
carers.
Visit www.carechoices.co.uk for further assistance with your search for care
37
Seeking financial advice and help continued
If your circumstances meet the conditions for
support and you wish us to pay towards the cost of
services, we will then assess your income and capital
such as savings. If your capital and income are below
certain levels (locally set if you continue living in your
own home, but nationally set if you decide to move
into residential care) then we will pay some or all of
your long-term care costs.
We will also be able to help you with information
about the choices you have for meeting your care
needs and how to arrange care. Many people wrongly
assume that they will need residential care, whereas
there may be options available to stay at home.
We, your GP or other NHS services can also offer
some people help to try to regain their ability to
manage more independently through the use of
equipment or adaptations to your home, or through
programmes of rehabilitation. You should ask about
this.
Also check what benefits you are entitled to. Not
all benefits are means tested and you may qualify for
Disability Living Allowance (DLA) if you are under 65
or Attendance Allowance (AA) if you are over 65. AA/
DLA (care component) cannot normally be paid if we
are funding your care in a care home, or the NHS is.
If you don’t qualify for financial help from us, you
will normally have to pay the cost of care out of your
own income and savings.
If you move into residential care, the value of your
home, if you own one, will be taken into account and
if you seek a loan from us a charge may be placed
against the property pending its sale, athough this
doesn’t necessarily have to take place immediately if
you don’t wish it.
It is important to make sure you find out as much
as possible before making care funding decisions.
For further information, please contact
customer advisors on 0300 456 0111.
How Wiltshire Council can help
Regardless of your financial situation, our staff are
happy to offer you an assessment, and information
and advice about your care options, including
moving into a care home or care home with nursing.
If you have capital or savings of more than
£23,250 you will have to pay for any care services
you require, but you are still entitled to discuss
your needs with someone at Wiltshire Council who
is trained to advise you. For further information
about options please look on our website for ‘Your
Financial Contribution towards Your Social Care’.
If you have capital or savings of less than £23,250
you may be entitled to funding from us. A financial
assessment will be undertaken to determine what
we consider you can afford to pay towards your care.

If you need to move into a care home, you may be
entitled to some of the following financial assistance
and support:
Twelve-week property disregard If your former home is included in your financial
assessment, but your other capital/savings is less
than £23,250, and your income is not enough to
meet your care home fees, we may assist with the
cost during the first twelve weeks of permanent care
if we agree that care is needed.
Deferred payment agreements
After the 12-week property disregard period, any
financial help from us will be in the form of a loan
and a charge will be placed against the value of your
home and recovered once your house has been sold.
However, we may limit how much we will pay and
it may affect your entitlement to pension credit or
income support if your property is not seen to be
on the market as it will be treated as capital by the
Department of Work and Pensions (DWP).
Attendance Allowance/Disability Living Allowance
(care component)
These are a non-means tested, non-taxable benefits
from the Department of Work and Pensions paid at
This Directory’s helpline 0800 389 2077 – information on choosing and paying for care
How Wiltshire Council can help continued
the lower rate of £53 per week for those needing
care by day or night, and at the higher rate of £79.15
per week for those needing care both during the day
and night. Everyone in these circumstances can, and
should, claim this benefit. This benefit will not be
paid if your care home is funded by us, but can be if
the financial help provided by us is a ‘loan’ pending
the sale of a property.
Running out of money
If your capital/savings are likely to reduce to £23,250,
you must let us know at least two months in advance
as we will step in to help with your care fees. We
must conduct an assessment of your situation and
will normally make a contribution towards your care
costs. If the home you have chosen charges more
than we consider is appropriate, you will need to
find someone to help pay the difference – a ‘top-up’
payment. Whoever does this, whether family or a
benevolent charity, they should realise that they may
have to pay this for some time. Alternatively, you
would have to find a cheaper home, although before
this happens we will undertake a risk assessment to
confirm that you are fit enough to move.
Understanding your rights before moving into
care is essential. There are a number of financial
products and specialist companies who may be
able to help. It is important to seek advice before
committing yourself. Citizens Advice or Age UK can
advise you further.

Essential information
Keeping people safe
Wiltshire Council and its partner agencies expect
health and social care services to work in a way that
respects people’s dignity, independence, choice and
safety and to have a zero tolerance of abuse.
The council and its partner agencies recognise that
people can be abused physically, psychologically,
financially, sexually, be discriminated against or
neglected. This abuse can take place where a person
lives, within a care home or day service, in hospital,
in custodial situations, in a place where support
services are being provided, or in a public place.
It can be carried out by partners, relatives, friends,
volunteers or someone employed to provide a
health, housing or social care service.
All organisations providing health, housing and
social care services in Wiltshire should follow the
Policy and Procedures for Safeguarding Vulnerable
Adults in Swindon and Wiltshire (2007) and report
any allegations or suspicions that a vulnerable
person is being abused.
Your concern will always be taken seriously. If
you would like more information about the abuse
of vulnerable people please contact our customer
service advisors and ask them to send you a free
copy of ‘Keeping People Safe in Wiltshire’.
If you have any concerns about a vulnerable
person being harmed or neglected you should
contact our customer service advisors:
Tel: 0300 456 0111
Text phone: 01225 712501
Fax: 01225 713355

There is also information about forms of abuse on the
Wiltshire Council’s website: www.wiltshire.gov.uk

who work with children or vulnerable adults came
into force in October 2009. For further information

Complaints, compliments and feedback
If you receive care at home or in a care home you
should feel able to complain about any aspect
of your life there which affects your happiness or
comfort. This might be anything from the way
you are treated by the staff to the quality of the
food you are served. You should also feel free to
make comments and suggestions about possible
improvements to your surroundings and the
services provided and compliment staff when
things go well.
Making a complaint should not be made difficult
for you and should not affect the standard of care
that you receive. Care homes are required under
government regulations to have a simple and easy
to use complaints procedure.
If you are concerned about the care that you,
a friend or a relative are receiving in a residential
home, it makes sense to speak to the manager of
the home about your concerns before you take any
further action. The problem may be resolved quite
easily once they are made aware of it. However, if you
need to make a formal complaint, you should initially
contact the registered owners of the home. They
have a duty to respond to any complaints made.
If your complaint is about a breach of regulations,
contact the Care Quality Commission:
Phone: 03000 616161
Email: [email protected]
Website: www.cqc.org.uk
If we have arranged and funded a place for you
in a care home, another option is to complain to
your social worker/care manager or our customer
complaints team.

Complaints about care that you pay for yourself
You are able to ask the Local Government
Ombudsman to take up your case if you are not
happy about how a care home or service dealt with
your complaint about care that you pay for yourself.

Out of county care
Did you know you can choose a care home outside
your home county? You may want to be closer to
friends and family members, or you may want to
relocate to another part of the country.
If your care home place is state-funded, your home
county local authority is still responsible for your
care fees, even if you choose a care home in another
region. The home you choose must be suitable for
your assessed needs and comply with the terms and
conditions set by the authority. The fees that your local
authority will pay may vary. They may offer you the fees
you would receive if you remained within the county,
or they may offer you the fees that the local authority
would pay in your chosen region. You must seek
further advice before making your decision. If you’re
self-funded, obviously you have freedom of choice.
For information on care provision in other
regions, contact this Directory’s independent
helpline on freephone 0800 389 2077
with details of your requirements.
Independent helpline
This Directory’s free helpline provides an
independent advice and information service
encompassing care, accommodation, funding and
rights. A personalised report can be generated for
customers providing details of all care homes or
housing with care schemes that meet their criteria
40
with supplementary information about choosing
and funding.
One call to the freephone number 0800 389 2077
will enable the service to build a profile of exactly
what type of care you’re looking for, while taking
into account your personal needs and interests.

How solicitors can help
A solicitor can give you impartial advice about wills,
making gifts, estate planning and Powers of Attorney
(PoA). Some can also offer guidance on immediate
and long-term care plans, ensuring (if applicable) the
NHS has made the correct contribution to your fees.
Lasting Powers of Attorney (LPoA) allow you to
appoint someone you trust to make decisions about
your personal welfare, including healthcare and
consent to medical treatment, and/ or your property
and financial affairs. An LPoA is only valid once
registered with the Office of the Public Guardian. It
allows for a person of your choice to make decisions
on your behalf at a time when you may be unable.
The Court of Protection can issue Orders
directing the management of a person’s property and
financial affairs if they are incapable of managing
their own affairs should they not have a LPoA. The
Court procedure is presently very slow and the fees
are quite expensive so preparing a LPoA is always
advisable, providing you have somebody sufficiently
trustworthy to appoint as your attorney.
An ‘advance directive’ allows you to communicate
your wishes in respect of future medical treatment,
but it is not legally binding. You may instead wish
to make a living will, properly known as an ‘advance
advertorial
decision’ setting out treatment that you do not want
to receive in specified circumstances, which would
legally have to be followed, even if you die as a result.
Any proposed ‘Gift’ out of your estate needs
careful consideration of the benefits, risks and
implications, particularly on any future liability for
care costs or tax liability.
Long-term care: whether you remain in your own
home or move into sheltered or residential care, you
may qualify for financial assistance in the form of
social care and NHS-funded care and welfare benefits.
If you don’t have your own solicitor, ask family or
friends for their recommendations. Contact several
firms, explain your situation and ask for an estimate
of cost and an idea of time scales involved. Many
firms will make home visits if necessary and will
adapt their communications to meet your needs. It’s
important to find a solicitor who specialises in this
area of the law. The Citizen’s Advice Bureau offers
an advice service and will be able to recommend
solicitors in your area.

Care Associations in Wiltshire
The Wiltshire Care Partnership
The Wiltshire Care Partnership is an umbrella
group that represents the interests of independent
providers of residential and nursing care and
works to drive up the quality and safety of services
available for older people in the county. It is a
new independent, member-led organisation
that has been established through the combined
efforts of independent providers of care for older
people in Wiltshire and the Council. Almost 50%
of independent providers have joined WCP so
far making it the largest single representative
organisation of its kind ever in Wiltshire.
WCP represents a coming-together of
commissioners and providers of care and
means that there can be much better sharing of
information and greater understanding of what
kind of care is needed now and in the future. We
will be better able to identify best practice and
make sure that we use what we learn to improve
services for everyone.
WCP is developing services that will assist and
strengthen independent care businesses as well
as offering mentoring and guidance to them. A
website is under construction and will be a valuable
source of information for members and the public
who want to know more about residential and
nursing care for older people in Wiltshire.
Later in 2013, there will be elections to the Board
of WCP and dedicated staff engaged to provide
further support to members.

The Registered Nursing Home Association
The Registered Nursing
Home Association (RNHA),
established in 1968, is
the authoritative voice of
nursing homes throughout
the United Kingdom.
The fundamental aims of
care homes that belong to
the Wiltshire branch of the association are:
• to ensure that the client comes first in the
provision of high quality nursing care designed
to meet individual needs
• to ensure that the client is always treated in a
dignified manner which respects the individual’s
right to make decisions regarding their care
• by constant endeavour, to review and improve
professional standards in order to provide a high
quality of life for vulnerable people
• to ensure that the professional status of care
homes is further developed
42
• to develop a forum that encourages the
exchange of expertise and practical experience in
order to secure high professional standards.
Care homes are subject to statutory inspection by
the Care Quality Commission. All members must,
in addition to this, fulfil the stringent criteria of the
Registered Nursing Home Association.
By fulfilling the exacting standards of the CQC
and the RNHA, the public can be assured that
members achieve the highest quality of care.
Members are denoted by RNHA.

The Wiltshire Care Association
The Wiltshire
Care Association
(WCA) was formed
in 1984 by care
home owners who
were determined to set and maintain standards of
care and accommodation in their homes, well above
the standards set by legislation in force at that time.
Its members are now drawn from all sectors that
provide all levels of care mainly for elderly persons
from Wiltshire and other counties.
WCA is the only care association specific to
Wiltshire and gives active support to its members,
advising them on statutory matters such as
government regulations, Criminal Records Bureau
(CRB) and Vetting and Barring Scheme (VBS) checks
and assisting in staff training and other activities to
promote the provision of quality services.
Association members through their elected
committee nominees liaise, meet and discuss
care related matters with the CQC, social services
care managers, Local Authority officers, Wiltshire
Council, Primary Care Trust officers, vulnerable adults
units and other caring agencies within the county,
talking to them about their first-hand experience
of the frailties of some procedures and legislative
interpretations. Committee members regularly sit
on committees and meetings that plan, monitor,
contract and pay for care.
WCA is affiliated to the National Care Association
(NCA) which enables members to have their opinions
and experiences discussed and brought to the notice
of central governmental agencies and committees;
it also keeps all members fully up-to-date on a wide
variety of care topics through six weekly newsletters.
The last few years have brought an incredible
number of changes to our routines, legislation,
training requirements, standards and trading
conditions and the administration of our homes.
Undoubtedly, there are more changes on the
horizon.
Membership keeps members informed, up-to-date
and prepared for the changes ahead.
Within the home listings, members are indicated as
WCA.

The Wiltshire Domiciliary Care Providers Association
w w w. w d c p a . c o . u k
The Wiltshire Domiciliary Care Providers Association
(WDCPA) was formed in 2004 to bring together
registered domiciliary care providers in Wiltshire.
All member organisations, which between them
cover the whole of Wiltshire, account for thousands
of hours of care every week. Members are made up
of both small and large providers, all providing high
quality care and support to individuals in their own
homes.
The introduction of direct payment means
that individuals now have total choice in who
provides their care and support. All WDCPA member
organisations can assist in planning to make the
best use of funds available. Services on offer range
from a short visit of 15-minutes, to 24 hour live-incare.
To make it easier for people to find a provider,
the WDCPA has created a ‘Find a Provider’ search
on the website. By entering a postcode, member
organisations which provide care in the area will be
shown, along with contact numbers and a link to
their own mini page on the WDCPA website.
All members are registered with the CQC
Commission and many are members of the United
Kingdom Home Care Association. All member
organisations in this Directory are denoted by
WDCPA next to their listings.
If you require any information about care in
your home, please contact any one of the WDCPA
members who will be more than happy to discuss
your requirements. If you need to contact the
WDCPA directly, please email [email protected]
or telephone 01225 719333.

Choosing the right care home for Mum was made easier.
• Nursing Care
• Residential Care
• Dementia Care
• Respite Care
From the moment my mother and I first visited her Barchester
care home, we knew we had found somewhere pretty special.
Elegant surroundings, delicious food and beautiful gardens
were made even more appealing by the presence of
like-minded residents with whom she can socialise and
enjoy activities. For my part, knowing that she’s safe in the
care of such a dedicated and compassionate team gives me
great peace of mind. And for that I’m extremely grateful.
T hank you, Barchester!
