About Us

Care Home Support Services was established by John Byrne, a qualified senior social worker, specialised in hospital discharges and care management with adults.

John’s experience led him to recognise the need for a truly independent, free advice service to assist those looking for care home accommodation.

Through his role at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham, John has built up extensive experience of the care home process. This includes all aspects of adult social and nursing care, including working with older adults, adults with physical disabilities, learning difficulties and brain injuries. In addition, a professional understanding of the Continuing Health Criteria assessment process (whereby the NHS meets the cost of any care required).

John envisages a service that will deliver a non-judgmental, person-centred approach to the ever increasing need for people seeking expert advice in regard to choosing a care home.

Our dedicated, professional team has specialist experience and in-depth knowledge of the care home process.

Each specialist advisor is carefully selected for their expertise and includes senior social workers and qualified (registered) nursing staff, care managers along with staff who have worked in a care home environment.

The service is free, confidential and culturally sensitive towards its clients. A friendly, professional approach is assured. Our aim is to ensure you have the knowledge required to make an informed choice when choosing a care home.

The overall outcome being a high quality support service which is specifically tailored to meet the needs of the individual and their families.
