One can spend years on deciding what to do. Meanwhile your life is ticking by. All depends upon where one lives & what back up services are available. In the UK Each client is assessed for care according to individual need. One can have one hour of care per day plus another hour as a cleaning help. This is decided by the local adult care service. The care for someone is arranged in their own home. This of course is dependent upon the needs of the person/ client/ patient. Their are homes ; residential, nursing & mental health care homes. Mental health care involves careful control of the environment around the patient/ staff & visitors. Safety is high on the agenda. If one owns property this has to be taken into consideration when paying for the cost of care.
