CARE FUNDING

Do you have questions about senior care home funding?

Private care home funding is frequently an important concern for anyone facing the decision of moving into a senior care home or considering this option for a loved one. Senior residential care homes present a team of professionals offering round-the-clock care as well as providing good meals, laundry services, entertainment and a welcoming place to socialise. Unsurprisingly, senior care home services are expensive and the prospect of sourcing funding can be very daunting. Fortunately, there are funding options available at a national level for the different types of care services.This funding may be provided by local Councils or by the National Health Service.
