Care Homes in Canterbury

Are you searching for residential care in Canterbury?

With over 100 CQC registered care homes in Canterbury, it can be difficult knowing where to start. TrustedCare was founded to support care seekers on their journey to finding care. Let our team of specialist Care Advisers take your care requirements and research homes in Canterbury on your behalf.

Using our Care and Advice service couldn’t be easier. Simply call, email or start an online chat – this service is free to all care seekers. Our Care Advisers will spend time finding out about your unique care requirements, thus allowing them to research appropriate care options in Canterbury for you. They will send over details on any residential care settings that match your requirements and if you approve, offer to book visits to homes at a time that is convenient for you.

It is important that you understand the difference between a care home and a nursing home which will help you assess which kind of home you need to be looking for on behalf of your loved one. A nursing home has Registered Nurses and carers on duty to support residents 24 hours a day whilst a residential care home only has Carers on hand at all times. Exploring the profiles below will allow you to create a shortlist of services that cover the types of care you are looking for e.g. dementia care or respite care. Most of the profiles below will also indicate a weekly care home fee. On average, the weekly cost of a care home in Canterbury is £1,178 but the figure will vary from home to home so it is always worth contacting services to enquire further into their costs and what is included in the fee.

TrustedCare.co.uk also hosts a wealth of information on individual care homes including: care specialities, images, a map and if available, care service user reviews. We hope this helps give a complete picture of care quality in Canterbury to inform your decision about which residential home is right for you.
