Care Homes in Christchurch

Looking for a care home in Christchurch can be stressful, let TrustedCare support you in finding suitable care.

Christchurch, Dorset has so much to offer, with a pretty idyllic countryside to the coastal beaches. Christchurch has many places to enjoy strolls and walks in the country alongside a bustling town centre with independent shops, cafes, and restaurants to enjoy at your leisure. The stunning historic harbour is a wonderful attraction to visit, and with the National Park and Forest on its doorstep, Christchurch is a haven for wildlife.

At TrustedCare, we have a Care Adviser team that specialises in helping care seekers find care homes in Christchurch that meet all of their care requirements and preferences. They will begin by having a chat with you about your care needs before putting together a shortlist of suitable services. Once they have shared this with you, they will even offer to contact the care home providers on your behalf to enquire about availability and booking assessments.

We understand that many care seekers like to do their research before deciding upon a care home service in Christchurch, which we highly recommend and that is why we are glad to offer you an online directory of trusted care services. Below, you will be able to browse the profiles of care home providers near you.

A burning question that many care seekers have is how much care in Christchurch costs; we can confirm that the average weekly fee in Christchurch is £1,001 but this will of course depend upon the care provider and care needs of the person. It's recommended that you contact your local authority to arrange a Financial Assessment which will determine whether you are eligible for any funding support for your care costs.

Below, you will be able to explore care homes in Christchurch that are able to support a range of specialisms from respite care to dementia care. You may be wondering what the difference between a care home and a nursing home is and we can advise that the main differentiator is that a nursing home has a Registered Nurse (RGN) on duty all hours of the day and night whilst a care home only has Carers on duty.
