Applying for Admission
An application for admission must first be submitted by a physician to the Community Care Access Centre (CCAC) for the Eastern Counties.
If you were previously receiving community based care in your home prior to admission, it is important that you inform the CCAC Case Manager. If you require chronic care following a hospital stay, the Hospital Discharge Planner and the CCAC Case Manager will answer your questions about the application, placement, and eligibility process.
If the applicant's needs meet the chronic care criteria, his/her name is added to a waiting list. Once on the waiting list, pre-admission papers are sent to family members for completion. Without completion of these forms admission shall not be permitted. Upon admission the resident and family are interviewed by the social worker and introduced to the facility.
All applications for admission must be made at the office of the Community Care Access Centre for the Eastern Counties in Cornwall:
