Care Journey
Step 1 – Research Local Homes.
Embarking on your care journey begins with local research. There are lots of tools out there to assist you in this, from the Care Quality Commission (CQC) website cqc.org.uk to an independent review website carehome.co.uk and care home guides from your local authorities. Facebook is also a great tool to see what daily life is like at the care homes.
While researching, consider what type of care your loved one might need, since care homes offer many different services. ‘Residential care’ is for those who need support with personal care, ensuring independence is maintained where possible. ‘Dementia Care’ for those individuals living with cognitive impairment. ‘Nursing care’ is for more complex needs, with ‘Short Stays’ or ‘Respite Care’ for holidays, recovery, and recuperation from surgery or illnesses. It is also important to consider other factors such as location, price, and the lifestyle and activities programmes that are offered.
Once you have done your research, make a shortlist of your top three homes and proceed to step 2.

Care Journey
Stage 2 – Make enquiries to your shortlist.
Now that you’ve narrowed down your options to a handful of potential care homes, it’s time to make enquiries. Boutique Care Homes offers a personalised approach to this process with dedicated Admissions Managers who are committed to guiding you through this delicate journey and will take the time to understand your unique circumstances, concerns, and preferences. Our Admissions Managers are experts in their field, with in-depth knowledge of our homes and the services we offer. They will be your main point of contact throughout the enquiry process, ensuring that your questions are answered promptly and thoroughly.
At Boutique Care Homes, we believe that visiting a care home is essential to truly understanding its environment and culture. That’s why we always encourage prospective residents and their loved ones to schedule a tour of our home. During your visit, you’ll have the opportunity to meet our team, explore our amenities, and get a feel for the unique atmosphere of our homes.
We recognise that choosing a care home is a significant decision, and we’re here to provide you with all the information and support you need to make an informed choice.

Care Journey
Step 3 – Visit your care home of choice.
Visiting a care home for the first time can be an emotional experience, but it’s an essential step in finding the right fit for your loved one. Preparing for your visit can help alleviate some of the stress and ensure that you make the most of your time at the care home.
Start by making a list of questions and concerns that you’d like to address during your visit. This will help ensure that you cover all the important topics and get the information you need to make an informed decision. It’s also a good idea to discuss your loved one’s preferences and priorities with them beforehand, if they are not attending the first visit with you.
On arrival at our home, you will be greeted by our Admissions Manager who will be your dedicated advisor throughout your visit. The visit will usually last about an hour but can take longer if needed, as we understand what a big decision it is and want to ensure we answer all your queries thoroughly. The first part of the visit will involve sitting down with our Admissions Manager to explore your loved ones needs, their history, interests, and hopes for the future. This is important as it allows us to build an understanding of what makes them unique and allows us topersonalise the tour accordingly. You can also run through any questions you might have, which we will be happy to answer.
Following this, we will then begin the tour, which will take you around the home and be tailored to your specific needs. We will visit the community in the home that we have identified as being the best fit, and you will also have the chance to explore the rooms available. You will also see our key community areas, such as our Bistro and gardens. During the tour, you will get the chance to meet residents and speak with our team, including our Home Manager, Carers, Chefs and Activities and Housekeeping Team as desired.
After the tour, we will return to the private area where you can ask any further questions, and our Admissions Manager will then discuss in more detail the next steps of the journey. This will include information on what documentation is required to move into our care home, exploring your move-in preferences. Care fees will also be discussed, as will what you need to consider to fund care in the long term, and we will also give any further guidance you might need.

Care Journey
Step 4 – Arrange a Care Needs Assessment.
After your visit, our admissions team will work with you to arrange a care needs assessment for your loved one. This assessment is an important step in the admissions process, as it helps us understand your loved one’s unique needs and develop a personalised care plan for them.
During the assessment, our experienced care professionals, often the Home Manager, will meet with your loved one to discuss their medical history, current health needs, and any specific care needs or preferences they may have. This will include evaluating your loved one’s mobility, cognitive function, dietary requirements, and overall health. The team will also ask for information on your loved ones past, their hobbies, and interests so that we can build a holistic picture of how best to support and engage them.
Based on the information gathered during the assessment, our team will develop a personalised care plan tailored to your loved one’s needs and preferences. This plan will outline the level of care and support your loved one will receive during their stay with us, ensuring that they receive the care and assistance they need to live comfortably and as independently as possible.

Care Journey
Step 5 – Confirm a Move-In day and Pre-Move Preparations
Following the assessment, our Admissions Manager will contact you with the outcome of the assessment. It is at this point that we can provide a formal offer of residency, and we will confirm the move-in date with you, the room, and the care fee. If multiple rooms are available, you may wish to visit the home to select this in person with your loved one, if suitable.
Sadly, we are not always able to support those with highly complex or nursing needs. If that is the case, we will endeavour to make referrals to other homes that we could support.
Once the move-in date and room are confirmed, you will have access to our easy-to-use Admissions Portal, which will contain your personalised documentation to complete. Rest assured, our Admissions Manager will be on hand to support you with this and guide you through what is required.
Alongside completing the documentation, our Admissions Managers will be able to provide advice on what to pack, how to prepare, and, if needed, can even make recommendations to local resources to help with property sales or downsizing specialists.

Every aspect of The Burlington care is superb, but I felt moved to write this review following a most enjoyable family birthday gathering in the home’s private dining room. We all were welcomed, fed and served with warmth, expertise and kindness and had a most memorable get-together. An example of the way in which The Burlington respects and cherishes their residents.
Mum was extremely happy at The Burlington for over 4 years. The staff, across all areas, are friendly, efficient and caring, always responded quickly and kept us up to date with any health issues or concerns. We, as her family, always felt very welcome and included especially at special events such as the summer BBQ, resident/family meetings or when using the private dining room for celebrations (or visits during Covid!). The seminars offered about dementia or finance for example were very welcome. The quality of accommodation, staffing levels, food, range and number of entertainment opportunities is exceptional. I cannot recommend The Burlington more highly.
Mum lived at The Burlington for four happy years. During that time the staff were brilliant – friendly and professional – and when visiting we felt very welcomed. Although some staff moved on during that time, there was a core of the team that were long-term employees which gave stability to the care.
A good programme of activities all year round which included residents ‘ families as appropriate. COVID put paid to a lot of the fun for a while but good arrangements were in place to visit when we could. Thanks to everyone for their care and supportive attitude.
