Advice & Information

Health and wellbeing needs, such as memory troubles like dementia or the requirement of nursing care, may be your main consideration when making your choice. However, we realise, for many people moving into a care home, there are lots of other things to consider. Thing like lifestyle and cultural preferences can be equally important. Finding the right home for you or a loved one is one of the biggest decisions you’ll have to make, and that’s why we always go the extra mile to provide you with all the information and advice you need to help you make the right choice for you.

Before you move into a care home, you'll have a financial assessment with your local council. The council will look at your income and capital before making a decision on how much you may have to pay towards your care home fees. You can find out more about paying care home fees in our blog here or by taking a look at our guide to Who Pays for Your Care. Alternatively, contact our team now to discuss care home finance and more.
