Funding
What benefits may I be able to claim as a self-funder?
When you go into a care home you can still claim a number of benefits and there are potential additional state benefits available.
The two most common additional state benefits available are the Attendance Allowance which is available to anyone over 65yrs, needing care and support on a daily basis and Funded Nursing Care (FNC) for nursing care costs.

In addition to the above those who are assessed as having a ‘primary health need’ may also be able to claim ‘Continuing Healthcare Funding’ (CHC). This is arranged and funded by the NHS.

What local authority financial support is available whilst I sell my home?
Your local authority may part fund 12 weeks of care at the point you decide to sell your home. Local authorities may also offer their own deferred payment arrangements for care. This will typically involve a loan secured on your property.
For more information please speak to your local authority
