You may be entitled to fundings for your care.
Paying for care is costly and can be a very complex situation depending on your circumstances. We will help you to make the procedures simple and easy to understand. If either you, a friend or a family member needs care and has to pay for the service then this could be a stressful period of your life. We are here to help make things stress free.
Did you know that each year thousands of people lose a huge amount of their lifetime savings to pay for care because they do not know how to claim their entitlement?
Care funding and benefits entitlements
To work out what your entitlement would be is by assessing your circumstances.
This is based on your care fees, how much your current income is and what kind of benefits you can receive and finally how much your property is worth if you own one.
If you are in need of care and you have to pay for it, then you may be entitled to 2 types of benefits, Attendance allowance and Nursing contribution, or if you are under 65 yrs old then you maybe entitled to Personal Independence Payment instead.

All needs of the service user must be agreed by the social services prior to starting Direct Payments.
