Care types at Elton House Care Home

Elton House Care Home is a Nursing Home in Watford, Hertfordshire, offering Nursing, Sensory Impairment, Dementia and Physical Disability care.

CQC registers the home to care for older people, younger adults, people living with dementia, people with physical disabilities and people with sensory impairments. Alongside accommodation, its registered activities include treatment of disease, disorder or injury.

Its current rating was inherited from the home's previous registration, which CQC does when a home changes provider. It reflects an inspection under the earlier owner until CQC inspects the home again.

An alternative worth knowing about

Considering Elton House Care Home? See how live-in care compares

A move into residential care is a big, often rushed decision. Live-in care keeps your family member in their own home, with one dedicated carer, their own routine, and — for a couple — no separation.

Stay at home

No move, no new environment to adjust to — just one-to-one support in familiar surroundings.

One dedicated carer

Not a rotating rota of staff — a named, DBS-checked carer who gets to know your family member.

Couples stay together

Most care homes can't accommodate a couple together in one room. Live-in care can.

Start in 24-48 hours

Often faster to arrange than a care home place, with no waiting list.
