How to choose a care home

Choosing a care home is one of the most important decisions a family can make. These steps can help you find the right place.

  1. 1

    Understand the level of care needed

    Speak with your GP or local social services to assess whether residential, nursing or dementia care is most appropriate.

  2. 2

    Shortlist homes in the right location

    Consider proximity to family and friends — regular visits make a real difference to wellbeing.

  3. 3

    Check inspection reports

    Care Inspectorate Wales (CIW) publishes inspection reports for every registered care home.

  4. 4

    Visit in person

    Visit your shortlisted homes, ideally more than once and at different times of day, and meet staff and residents.

  5. 5

    Ask about fees and contracts

    Make sure you understand what is included in the weekly fee and the terms of the residency agreement.
