All residents are entitled to change care homes if their current one isn’t the right fit for them – perhaps they are struggling with the adjustment or the location has hindered their family from visiting as regularly as they’d like. Referring to the terms and conditions of the contract will prevent any problems so that this is a smooth process.
Being surrounded by items from home can allow new residents to feel more comfortable and settled. At Bondcare, we welcome small items of furniture – such as a favourite armchair – and other treasured belongings – including photographs – so residents can personalise their rooms. All electrical items will be PAT tested and furniture will undergo a fire risk assessment to protect the safety of our residents and staff.

Bondcare are proud providers of residential care across the UK, owning and operating a number of residential care homes of the highest standard. Please read on to find out more about what residential care is and what we offer.
Residential care is provided for people who are able to retain a certain level of independence in their day-to-day life. Residential care may include things like assistance with eating, washing, dressing and general mobility, but residents are also encouraged to do things independently where they can. Nursing care, by comparison, caters for people who need specialist care for medical issues.
At Bondcare, we pride ourselves on providing the highest standards of residential care across all our qualifying homes. Our residential care homes are staffed by qualified care assistants who hold NVQ (National Vocational Qualification) and RQF (Regulated Quality Framework) to levels 2 or 3, so you can have complete faith in the quality of the care we provide.
Our carers will assist residents with everyday tasks such as eating, dressing, washing and getting around, but residents are also encouraged to enjoy independence where possible. We keep individual care plans for each of our residents so that we can keep track of their needs on a day-to-day basis. Our activities coordinators organise a wide range of social activities to help keep the residents stimulated and active where possible, including trips to local shops and amenities, knitting and games.
To maintain the welcoming atmosphere of a home, we allow residents to add their own personal touches to their rooms, and furniture can be brought in subject to prior agreement. Everything is geared towards creating a welcoming, warm and supportive environment that ensures residents have access to everything they need.
Residential care homes and nursing homes have some marked differences. Please read our detailed article about the differences between nursing homes and residential homes by clicking here.
If they meet certain requirements, people might be eligible for financial support when it comes to paying for residential care. Depending on the circumstances, your care could be funded by your local council or the NHS. Click here to read more about NHS-funded residential care.

Every new resident to the care home will be assessed to ensure they receive the right type of care catered to their individual needs. Following this, a care plan will be created which sets out how the staff at the home will meet those needs for a comfortable stay. Care plans are typically reviewed on a monthly basis and are updated in the event there are any changes.
This will depend on your individual financial situation and care needs. If your finances total below a certain threshold, your local authority can contribute towards your fees – this can differ between countries in the UK, so make sure you familiarise yourself with this first. There are also some benefits options available that care home residents can claim, and the NHS also provides support with nursing care fees, too.
Should residents decide to bring small items of furniture or personal belongings, we are unable to accept responsibility in the event that they are lost or damaged, unless security precautions at the home have been compromised. It is strongly recommended that you arrange suitable contents insurance if you do decide to bring such items along with you.
