Finding the right care home in London

Choosing the right care home for a person you care for is no easy task - with many care searchers describing the process as a minefield to navigate. That’s where our care home directory can help - with over 400 care homes to choose from in London. If you weren’t aware already, all care homes in London are regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) - and of the 421 care homes in London, 331 have been rated good or above. CQC ratings are important, of course, but the right choice for your loved one comes down to your loved one’s care needs and personal choices. We hope our care directory and advice helps you choose the right care home in London for your loved one.

Location is key

Location, location, location is a key factor when choosing where you want to live - and picking the right care home for your loved one is no different. London is a vast city, and because of this, care homes can be situated in a number of different environments, whether towards a leafier area likeCompton Lodgewhich is a hop skip and a jump away from Primrose Hill, or perhaps the option of being near the water might make them happy - likeMeadbank Care Homein Battersea. Think about how easy the care home is to visit your loved ones, because transportation links - and even parking accessibility - needs to be thought about when living in London.

Feeling at home

What would make your loved one feel most at home and happy? Do they like to keep active and be around people? Or do they enjoy time relaxing and prefer their own company? Before making a decision on the best care home for them, we recommend thinking about: Think about what makes your loved one happy. Do they enjoy quiet time watching TV or reading? Or are they happier being around people and staying active? Here are a few things to consider:

Gardens and outdoor spaces

Getting out in the fresh air can work wonders for the body and mind - which is why a lot of care homes in London boast green spaces within their grounds for residents.Beaumont Court Care Home is one such property which offers gardens and grounds for residents and their family and friends to enjoy.

Pets welcome

It has been proven that having pets can raise serotonin levels and reduce stress - which is why a number of care homes in London allow residents to bring their pets with them. Of course, this needs to be arranged ahead of your furry companion’s arrival, but care homes likeThe Highgate Care HomeandNorton Houseboth welcome the pets of their residents.

Activities and days out

Most care homes work hard to offer residents a mix of spaces to relax in and spaces that will be a hive of activity. Homes in London are no different, with many offering a number of on-site facilities including libraries, cinemas, hair salons, cafes and a range of group-based activities.
