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?
  • Check whether outside spaces are secure and whether activities are tailored for people with dementia.
  • Assess the accessibility of corridors, bathrooms, and outdoor areas for wheelchair users.
