Getting to a viewing should feel manageable. Sharing access needs in advance helps everyone plan a more comfortable visit.
A small amount of preparation can prevent a viewing becoming tiring or difficult. Describe the access arrangements you need rather than assuming a building will suit.
A practical way to begin
Requirements differ between visitors and prospective residents. A tour that is accessible for a short visit does not establish that the accommodation and care arrangements meet every longer-term need.
Your discussion checklist
- Ask about the approach and entrance
- Discuss wheelchair or walking-aid access
- Check whether seating breaks can be arranged
- Ask where to arrive and whom to call
Before you take the next step
Confirm the plan with the home before travelling. If a particular area cannot be visited, ask how you can understand it and when a fuller assessment could take place.
