Care Admissions Desk

A placement desk for NHS discharge teams and council brokerage teams.

We match discharge and brokerage teams with live care home and supported living vacancy information across England. The service is free to NHS and local-authority teams.

What we do

When a patient is ready to leave hospital, or a council needs a placement, the slow part is finding out which homes actually have a suitable bed right now. We keep current vacancy information from care homes and supported living providers across England, so your team spends less time ringing round and more time placing.

How it works

  1. Tell us what you need: care type, area, and timescale.
  2. We check current vacancies with providers in that area.
  3. You get a shortlist of settings with availability. Your team assesses and places directly, as normal.

We do not hold patient records. Requests are handled as counts and care types, not case files.

Who it is for

NHS discharge and transfer-of-care teams, and council brokerage and placements teams. Free to both.

Care home and supported living providers: send us your current vacancies and we will include them when they match a request.
