Frequently asked questions

How can I verify if a care home is CQC-regulated?

You can verify a home's regulatory status by checking the official Care Quality Commission website. Our directory includes links to these reports to help you review the most recent safety and quality findings.

What should I look for when choosing a dementia care home?

Look for facilities that offer specific dementia training for staff, secure environments, and person-centered activity programs. It is also helpful to arrange an in-person visit to assess the atmosphere and the quality of interaction between staff and residents.

How often is the information on your website updated?

We perform regular, automated checks of our listings to ensure that contact details and location data remain accurate. We also rely on feedback from users and providers to keep our information as current as possible.

Do you recommend specific care homes?

No, we do not provide recommendations or endorsements. We are an independent directory designed to help you gather the information you need to make an informed decision for your family.
