CARE FUNDING
Do you have questions about senior care home funding?
Private care home funding is 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. When it comes to funding a stay, it is not just about securing a place to live, it’s about investing in a comprehensive support system that prioritises the wellbeing and happiness of the elderly individual, ensuring they live with dignity, comfort and independence.
CARE FUNDING
How funding is calculated
Funding is calculated based on the state of health of the dependent person, their level of dependency and their financial situation. The first step will always be an evaluation of these factors and, in the case of respite care, an assessment will also be made of the primary carer’s responsibilities. We know that funding the cost of an elderly care home can be difficult to navigate. We have prepared some helpful information to help you make sense of it all.
