Paying for home care
How do you pay for your care and protect your capital?
Do you know where to start? Do you need some guarantees?
We passionately believe that people wishing to remain living in their own homes for as long as possible, should be given all the choices and options as well as support, but you need to plan.
For some time now, it has been government policy to encourage and enable this to happen. Finding out what you may be entitled to can be complicated and confusing.
With this in mind, Bunbury Care Agency have become the first elderly home care agency to be made an affiliate member of The Society of Later Life Advisers (SOLLA).
What does this mean for you?
We can offer access to the best and most highly qualified experts in elderly care funding, so no matter what your questions, be they legal, financial or other matters, we can help.
Nobody caring for elderly parents wants to put a monetary value on it, but hopefully our home Care Fees Solutions can answer your questions.
We understand that this can often be a stressful and emotional time and whilst we make no claims to being a ‘one stop shop’, we hope that our information will help you make informed choices.
