What to Expect When Visiting

When visiting a residential care home, pay attention to the atmosphere as much as the facilities. The best homes feel warm, unhurried, and genuinely caring — like a place where your loved one could feel at home.

  • Try to visit at different times of day, including mealtimes, to see the home in action.
  • Speak with staff and, if possible, current residents or their families about their experience.
  • Ask how the home supports residents who may need nursing care in the future.
  • Look at the communal spaces — do they feel welcoming, clean, and well-used?

It can be hard to know what to ask during a care home visit. Here are some questions tailored to Edgemont House's type of care that may help guide your conversation:

  1. 1 What happens if a resident's care needs increase beyond what you can provide?
  2. 2 How do you support residents to stay active and connected to their community?

  4. 4 What does a typical day look like for someone living here?
