Frequently Asked Questions
Is Hartford Care a regulated care provider?
Yes. Every Hartford Care home is regulated by an independent inspector. Our homes in England are regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), and our homes in Wales are regulated by Care Inspectorate Wales (CIW). Both regulators inspect homes regularly and publish their reports, so families can read them for themselves. You can find out more at https://www.cqc.org.uk/ and https://www.careinspectorate.wales/.
Which types of later life care do you provide?
At Hartford Care we offer residential, dementia, nursing, respite and day care in our homes across England and Wales. We strive to ensure all our residents and their visitors feel at home in our care and believe that the ‘family feel’ we promote makes us a unique care provider.
Does Hartford Care offer Dementia Care?
Yes – we are proud to offer dementia care in all our care homes, ensuring care is tailored to the individual. Our highly trained carers work in partnership with our residents living with dementia (and their families) to replicate lifestyle choices and preferences wherever possible, offering home-from-home care in a safe and secure environment.
Are care plans discussed with residents and their relatives?
Our care plans are created once we have spent time discussing care requirements and preferences with our residents and their family members. We consult with all relevant parties, including medical professionals, to formulate a plan that ensures our residents receive the very best levels of care and enjoyment in our homes. Care plans are regularly reviewed, and any changes clearly communicated.
How do you communicate any issues or concerns to relatives?
At Hartford Care we pride ourselves on clear and constant communication. If there are any issues, problems, concerns or changes – we will be in touch.
Do you offer trial periods / taster sessions?
If you’d like to experience life at one of our homes before making a longer-term decision, spending some time with us through day care can be a great way to get a feel for the home, meet the team and enjoy the community. Day care can also provide valuable respite for family carers, while giving the person attending the opportunity to enjoy a change of scenery, socialise and take part in activities.
Is there a minimum stay for respite care?
Our respite care is designed as a short-term care package and is usually booked for up to 8 weeks, depending on individual circumstances. Occasionally, respite care is required for several months and we would assess each case on its individual requirements, creating a care plan and respite solution that is appropriate. A respite stay can be a good way for prospective residents to transition into full-time care. Terms and Conditions apply.
