Care home selection checklist

The care home selection process can at times seem a confusing and daunting task. With more than 60 years’ experience of helping people find the right home, we have produced a free checklist to help you choose between the care homes you visit.

Is this home right for me?

It may be the little things that appeal to you most about a particular home, like being able to re-arrange the room furniture to suit yourself, the staff knowing how you like your tea, or having a telephone line in your bedroom, and therefore you may find it useful to make notes of these details.

Our checklist compiles the questions most commonly asked about care homes, as well as issues our residents have told us were most important to them. The checklist is available for free below; please download it and print it as often as you like.
