Tameside Council offers a number of services that are focused on preventing people from becoming dependent on others for their care and support needs. Services such as assistive technology and reablement help people to feel supported and safe at home and, when needed, other services such as home care and residential care can also be provided based on an assessment of needs and your eligibility for social care services.

The Council’s Adult Services focus on reducing people’s need for care and support through a preventative, enabling approach where people are supported to be as independent as they can be. Services are set up to ensure that people are encouraged to maximise self-reliance and to enable people to learn or relearn skills in order to remain as active as possible.

The Care Act was implemented in April 2015, making positive changes to the way care and support is provided for adults and carers. The Act is designed to ensure that people: receive services that prevent their care needs from becoming more serious, or delay the impact of their needs; can get the information and advice they need to make good decisions about care and support; and have a range of high-quality care providers to choose from.

The aim of this Directory is to provide Tameside citizens with details of locally-available services to meet their social care needs, including extra care housing and home care as well as services for people who need more intensive 24-hour care in a residential or nursing home environment.

We want to make sure that the process of accessing services is as straightforward as possible and is easily understood.

WHAT ARE THE CARE OPTIONS?HOW WILL I KNOW WHICH TO CHOOSE?

Werneth Low Country Park


Tameside Council has to use the money it has in a fair and equitable way to help people with the greatest needs. This is done using national eligibility criteria which helps the Council determine whether it can meet your needs or not. Social workers and other social care staff use the criteria to make sure that they treat everyone fairly and that people who meet the criteria for help receive the appropriate level of care and support.

Tameside Council’s eligibility criteria are based on the

legal requirements set down in Government guidance. However, even if you do not meet the eligibility criteria, the Council will advise you on a range of services that may be able to meet your needs and signpost you to a Wellbeing Adviser who will be able to offer you more help and advice.

Eligibility is determined following an assessment of your needs, either as a person needing help and support, or as a carer of someone in need of help and support.

Eligibility

Looking for care or support?If you have a long-term health condition or disability and are finding it difficult to cope with everyday living tasks, then you may need some additional support to help you. It might be easy to identify the care and support you need, or you may need some help to do this. You should speak with people who know you well to see what support they think you need – they may notice areas where you need help that you hadn’t considered.

Once you’ve thought about the areas you need help with, there are lots of ways to find that support. You can use this Directory and the free, independent helpline (call 0800 389 2077), or speak to other people who have help and support currently and you can also contact the Council’s Health and Wellbeing Service based at the Tameside Carers Centre on 0161 342 3344.

Sometimes, however, the care and support you need will be more complex. This is when the Council may be able to help you. However, it will need to check whether you’re eligible for a service by assessing your care needs and finances.

The assessment process is one of the most important elements of the care and support system. If you think you may need care and support, the Council will assess your needs.

At the start of the assessment process, if it is considered that a person has substantial difficulty in engaging with the process then the Council will consider whether there

is anyone appropriate who can support the person to be fully involved. This might be a family member, friend or carer (who is not professionally engaged or remunerated). If there is no-one appropriate, then the Council must arrange for an independent advocate.

You will have the opportunity to discuss what you can do for yourself, what support you need, your wellbeing and what is important to you and your family.

If you have a carer, they will also be offered an assessment of their needs. Your carer is entitled to an assessment even if you decide not to have one.

The process will be focused on you and will support you to have choice and control over your care and support.

Together, you and the Council will aim to:

• understand your situation better;

• work out what options there are for managing or making your situation better;

Assessment


money that the Council has worked out it will cost to arrange the necessary care and support for your eligible needs.

This includes any amount that the Council is going to pay towards those costs. The personal budget helps you to decide how much control you want to have over arranging your care and support by allowing you to see how much money is available to buy the care you need.

How will the Council check whether your Support Plan is still meeting your needs? Your Support Plan will be reviewed regularly. However, if you feel your Support Plan is not working, you may ask for a review at any time. The Council wants to know whether:

• you are happy with the services that have been arranged and, if not, how the Council can improve the situation;

• you are managing at home with the services provided; or

• your circumstances have changed and you need a reassessment to look at different services.

As a result of a review, the Council may either increase or reduce services if there are any changes in your circumstances.

If you, or the person you are caring for, has complex health care needs the Council may also recommend that you have input from other services such as community nurses, occupational therapists, behavioural therapists and physiotherapists.

Planning your support

What is a Support Plan? If, because of your assessment, the Council is going to arrange services, it will discuss this with you and then write down the arrangements in a Support Plan.

Your Support Plan will describe:

• who is responsible for providing services;

• what they have agreed to do;

• when they will do it;

• who is responsible for making sure things are going to plan; and

• the names of key people and how to contact them.

Services will not always be provided direct from Adult Services, sometimes it arranges for private or voluntary agencies to provide services on its behalf.

You will be given a copy of your Support Plan in the language or format of your choice.

As part of the planning process, the Council will talk to you about a personal budget. This is the amount of

• work out what you want to be able to do and how much support you think you’ll need;

• understand what the risks are if you don’t have any support; and

• make decisions about what happens next.

The Council will look at how you manage everyday living tasks (such as washing, going to the toilet, cooking and cleaning), your freedom to make choices, your safety and how much involvement you have with your family and community.

After the assessment process is finished, the decision can then be made about whether you are entitled to care and support arranged by the Council and how much you will be required to pay for that care.

If it is determined that you are not eligible for support from Adult Services, you will be redirected to other organisations which will aim to help you find other ways

of meeting your needs. They may help you to maximise your own resources or simply offer help and advice.

The information you give is confidential and the Council will only share it with those people who need to know about your situation to help you. You will always be asked for your permission before that information is shared.

alarm system all the time and these include falls detectors, monitored smoke alarms, flood and gas detectors as well as more specialist equipment that can assist with medication dispensing, detecting epileptic seizures and more.

There is also a system called ‘Just Checking’ which is usually used for a short time to find out how safe someone is in their own home and to work out how much support they need. The system is a set of movement detectors that monitor a person’s movements and routines. It is particularly useful for people with dementia, or other learning or memory impairments, to ascertain the levels of risk that people are able to take.

The Community Response Service (CRS) provides peace of mind for people who feel at risk in their own homes. It gives you freedom to live your life independently, knowing that you can obtain assistance when you need it within your own home.

There are many reasons that people need support, from ill health to fear of crime. The Community Alarm Service operates all year round, 24-hours a day. Your call is answered in seconds by an experienced operator who will be able to get the appropriate help and support to you, whether that be a relative or neighbour, the emergency services or a member of the community response team.

New pieces of equipment are being added to the

Community Response Service

however, you can decide at any time to take a Direct Payment for some or all of your assessed personal budget.

People who decide to take a Direct Payment can choose to employ their own care worker(s) known as Personal Assistants (PAs) or contract with a care agency.

Some people may not be able to take on the responsibility of managing their own Direct Payment but, if you require ongoing support, there are other ways that this can be arranged, for example, the money can be paid to an authorised person to manage on your behalf. This will be explained to you if you are considering a Direct Payment.

Direct Payments

Once your Support Plan and personal budget have been agreed with you, you will be offered the opportunity to take the budget as a cash payment, known as a Direct Payment. The money can be paid to you either as a one-off payment or regular monthly payment. You can choose to spend your Direct Payment as you like, however there are some rules and conditions that you will be expected to follow. These will be explained to you when you are considering your options.

You may not want to consider taking a Direct Payment at the start of your support being planned and delivered,

What support is available?

A comprehensive list of home care providers operating in Tameside starts on page 15.

Care at home

If you are finding it difficult to manage at home, family and friends may be able to help. Alternatively you may want to consider using the services of a home care agency. These employ care assistants to provide help and support in your own home. They can assist with personal care such as bathing, washing and dressing as well as other aspects of daily living. They will be trained in personal care and safety procedures, moving and handling and hygiene, and some providers employ registered nurses.

All social care providers are registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC) which inspects them against the national essential standards of quality and safety. For further information on the CQC, please see its website www.cqc.org.uk


Contact the Wheelchair Centre, 229 Droylsden Road, Audenshaw, Tameside M34 5ZT, call 0161 370 2661 or 5949 or visit www.thewheelchaircentre.co.uk

There may be adaptations to your home that you might wish to consider, such as grab rails to help steady yourself or a ramp to your front and back door to avoid large steps. A stair lift may also be of assistance for you if you can no longer get upstairs.

You may be finding it difficult to walk and often walking sticks or walking frames can provide the extra support that’s needed to get around the house and also get out and about within your neighbourhood and community.

If you need more support, a wheelchair or mobility scooter may be the answer. You need to consider where you would store them and how you would be able to charge a scooter, but advice about the best equipment for your needs and where to get it from is available.

Getting out and about

can be added to your telephone and television.In the kitchen, again, there are pieces of equipment

designed to make your life easier, such as electric can openers, kettle tippers, easy grip peelers and graters.

Help and advice is available to ensure you are directed to the best pieces of equipment to meet your needs and to let you know where you can get them from.

Most people want to remain as independent as possible for as long as possible. You might get help from your family and friends with certain tasks such as shopping or cleaning, but with the right equipment you may be able to do more for yourself than you thought.

There are lots of different pieces of equipment that can make big differences to your life. Simply raising your armchair onto special riser blocks means that you will be able to get up out of your chair easier. A helping hand grabber will enable you to pick things up without bending down. If you have difficulties plugging things in or out, or opening jars there are pieces of equipment that can help you.

If you have hearing difficulties, then flashing lights can be added to your doorbell or smoke alarm and amplifiers

address your concerns or arrange for further investigation. You may be referred to a local memory monitoring service where a formal diagnosis can be made. Bear in mind that there are many reasons for memory loss apart from dementia. However, the earlier you seek help, the better, as there may be support or treatment available that can help you.

If you are worried that your memory – or that of someone you know – is getting noticeably worse, or if memory loss is beginning to have a knock-on effect on everyday life, it is worth sharing your worries and seeking advice. That’s because memory problems can sometimes be an early sign of a medical condition such as dementia.

You should first have a chat with your GP, who will

Dementia care

If your hospital stay is an emergency, let one of the nurses know, as soon as you can, if any of the situations mentioned above affect you. You may also need help to arrange for the care of pets, to collect your pension or secure your home.

Tameside Hospital has staff on site from Tameside Adult Services who work closely with NHS staff and will help you to sort out emergency, short-term or long-term social care needs.

Tameside Adult Services can support you, your family or carers to facilitate safe discharge from hospital. Many people leaving hospital require little help, and it may be that you only need information, but staff will gladly direct you to the most appropriate source.

Other people leaving hospital may need services such as health and wellbeing, reablement, a community alarm and other specialist services when they get home.

While many people leaving hospital get help from their family and friends, if you can’t make these arrangements yourself then the Council will look at ways of arranging services for you.

When you go into hospital, it may be for a planned treatment or as an emergency.

If you know in advance when you will be going into hospital, it is a good idea to plan ahead, perhaps with the help of a relative, friend or carer. You may need to think about things such as the care of a pet or pension collection, as well as getting all the things together that you will take with you into hospital.

If you, or someone you care for, receive social care support at home or are in a care home, you need to let the care provider know, as soon as possible, when you are going into hospital and how long you think your stay will be. This is because:• the Council may be able to help make alternative

arrangements for people who may rely on you for their care;

• it can prevent staff from worrying about you if they cannot get an answer when they call at your home; and

• arrangements can be made to keep your care home place available for a period of time. Your benefits and any contributions you make towards care may be affected.

Leaving hospital

Residential care homes

There are two types of residential home:

Care homes (personal care only) If you need care on a 24-hour basis but you have no nursing needs, subject to a needs assessment, a care home offering only personal care may be the best option. Personal care includes bathing, feeding, dressing and help with moving.

Care homes with nursing Traditionally called a nursing home, this kind of home is suitable for those needing nursing care, where it will

Care homes checklist © 2015/16 Care Choices Ltd

The decision to move into a residential or nursing care home should only be made when all other options for remaining at home have been considered and tried. Once it is established that your care will be most appropriately provided for in 24-hour care, there are a number of

questions that you will want answering before making a final decision about which care home you will choose.

Here is a useful list of questions that you may want to consider before making a decision about which home you want to move into.


arranged and funded solely by the NHS to meet physical and/or mental health needs that have arisen because of disability, accident or illness. You can receive CHC funding in any setting, including your own home or a care home.

NHS CHC is free, unlike social care help from Adult Services, for which a financial charge may be made depending upon your income, savings and other assets.

Anyone assessed as having a specific level of healthcare needs may receive CHC funding. It is not dependent upon a particular disease, diagnosis or condition, or on who provides the care or where that care is provided. This will be discussed with you during the assessment process (explained on page 5).

If, at any time, you feel that your health has deteriorated then you can request an assessment for CHC funding and your eligibility will be looked at.

Social care, unlike health care, is not free for everyone. Councils only have a limited amount of money and cannot provide services directly for everyone.

If you have been assessed as being eligible for social care support (explained on page 5), the Council will look at what help you need and what it should cost. This gives you an overall annual personal budget for the cost of your care.

If you have been assessed as needing a personal budget for your support, you will need to show details of how much money you have. The Council will work out if you are able to pay some, or all, of the cost of care yourself. This is called a financial assessment.

In carrying out the financial assessment, you will be asked to sign a consent form that allows the Council to speak to the Department for Work and Pensions and other Government services on your behalf. This will help to work out your charges and make sure you receive the right welfare benefits.

If you do not provide your financial details, or do not want a financial assessment, you will have to pay the full costs of your service.

NHS funded nursing care NHS funded nursing care is funding paid directly to a nursing home for care provided by registered nurses employed by the home. Services provided regularly by a registered nurse are likely to involve:• provision of nursing care supervision or monitoring of

care provided by a non-registered nurse;

• planning and reviewing a care plan;

• monitoring and reviewing medication needs; and

• identifying and addressing potential health problems.

Eligibility for NHS funded nursing care in a nursing home

should not be considered until it has been agreed that you are not eligible for CHC funding and that a place in a nursing home is the best option for meeting your needs.

Self-funders You may be called a self-funder if you are meeting the costs of your support without any help from the Council. This can include support to live independently at home or in a care home. Some people choose to be self-funders because they do not want to be financially assessed, or they choose to make their own arrangements for support.

Tameside Council can only make a contribution to the cost of your support if:• you have been assessed as being eligible for support

from the Adult Services, under national eligibility criteria (explained on page 5); and

• you have had a full financial assessment and have been told you that you do not have to pay for the full cost of your care.

Even if you don’t think the Council will be able to make a financial contribution to the costs of your support, and you think you will be funding all of your support from your own resources, it makes sense to have a free assessment. You may find you are entitled to help with costs after all.

If the Council cannot help with the costs, as a self-funder you are still entitled to the same free detailed help and advice in working out your needs and finding the right service as anyone else.
