Have you explored care funding options?
We understand that arranging care can be a highly emotional and financially challenging time. Our expert Care Advisors are here to help you navigate funding options, including:
- Local authority funding and state benefits: It’s likely you could get all or part of the weekly fees covered by your local authority. For more information, read our guide to local authority funding.
- NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC): If your loved one has complex care needs, the NHS may pay for their care costs in full. Continuing Healthcare is a non-means-tested funding source that covers 100% of your fees if you have a primary health need. Learn about NHS Continuing Healthcare.
