Medway's handbook for care and support for adults

Medway Council aims to enable people to live as independently as possible and to ensure that the care on offer in Medway is of the highest quality.

Care homes handbook

The Care homes handbook has been put together to inform people about sources of help available to individuals and their carers, with the choice of residential care and advise on other services available.

The handbook not only lists registered residential care and nursing homes in Medway but also gives details of other services provided by Medway Council and other local private community and voluntary agencies.

Please note, however, that the inclusion of a provider’s details does not imply recommendation by Medway Council.

The handbook refers to policies for purchasing domiciliary care (home help) and care from residential and nursing homes. To find out more about these policies, please select from the links at the foot of the page.

Feedback

The council is keen to work closely in partnership with service users and carers and to listen carefully to their views and wishes. It also aims to continue successful partnerships with service providers who make a vital contribution to the planning the range of social care services. 

If you have any feedback about the handbook or would like to make suggestions about articles of advice that could be added then please contact scctcontractadmin@medway.gov.uk.

Medway Council hopes that this guide will help you with your choice of care.
