Finding the right care home for your loved one
Care homes are sometimes referred to as nursing homes, elderly care homes or residential homes. At Bupa we provide a range of care home options as well as accommodation and support for both younger and older people with care needs. Whether you need assistance with everyday tasks or round the-clock support, our care services are here to help you get the most out of life.
If you’re choosing a care home for a loved one, or thinking about one for yourself, it’s a big decision – so it’s important to find the care home that feels just right. To us, every resident is an individual. That’s why we take pride in working with you to develop a care plan that’s tailored to your personal preferences and needs.Is it normal to grow old gracefully, or disgracefully?
There's no normal way to grow old at a Bupa Care Home.
Some may like to dance in the lounge. Others just want breakfast in bed. Some may need help with the little things. Others with everything. That's why our professionally trained carers provide individual support. Talk to us about our residential, nursing and dementia care - we're here to help.

Types of care
It’s important to find a care home that will provide the right support, in an environment where you can thrive. We have many care homes that suit a wide range of needs, either on a temporary or long-term basis.
Residential care
If you’re looking for support with day-to-day life, our residential care services offer peace of mind. Someone else will prepare delicious meals for you, do the cleaning, and even help you with personal care.
Nursing care
For those who need 24-hour support, our nursing care offers you round-the-clock access to nurses. They’ll take care of you, whatever your condition and whenever required.
Dementia care
Many of our care homes welcome those with early-onset or advanced dementia. Whether you need residential dementia care or nursing dementia care, we’re here to keep you safe and comfortable.
Respite care
Short-stay care can help carers to recharge their batteries while their loved one is getting dedicated care in a safe and comfortable environment. Our respite care is here for whenever you need it.
Convalescent care
If you’ve recently had an illness or operation and would like some help feeling more like yourself again, our convalescent care services can help to boost your confidence and get you back on track.
Palliative care
If you’re seriously ill, ensuring the best possible quality of life is invaluable. Our palliative nursing care provides dedicated 24-hour support when it’s most needed, in a calm and peaceful environment.

Help with care home funding
You don’t have to be a Bupa customer already to live at one of our care homes – we welcome enquires from anyone interested in the care services we provide.
The weekly fee for staying at one of our homes varies, depending on the type of care that’s needed. Our customer care team is on standby to provide pricing information based around your individual needs.
Your local authority can tell you if you qualify for any care home funding support, or you can make payments from your own private funds.

We’ve created Bupa Buddy, a service for those who are lonely, bored or simply want to chat.
This service is open to all elderly people, not just our care home residents. They don’t even have to be a Bupa customer.
