What is a care home? There are two main types of care home: • Residential care homes which do not provide nursing care • Nursing care homes which provide nursing care Some care homes are registered to provide both residential and nursing care. A care home is what we call a home that offers accommodation and personal care. Care homes can offer different types of care,

such as residential care or nursing care. There are also some care homes which provide specialist care for people who require extra support, often due to dementia or other mental health. Care homes are owned and run by private companies and charities. When we talk about care homes in this book, we are talking about care homes which have been inspected and registered with CQC.
