Who Pays for a Care Home?

Care homes can be paid for in three ways. The first is local authority funding, where the local authority pays for all or part of the care. The care seeker’s relatives or friends can then choose to add an additional payment known as a top-up fee. The second way is self-funding; where the care seeker themselves, their family or friend cover care fees. Finally, in certain circumstances, the NHS will pay for care homes costs.

Therefore, we take care in our interactions with residents, and always ensure that they are comfortable and happy. Thus to ensure this, we will always involve them and their families in decisions about care. This includes discussing care plans and any changes that may need to be made.
