Beskrivelse

Choosing care in later years for yourself or a loved one is difficult at the best of times. However, there are many options available to you and I will guide you through these at this worrying time. The information will help you for any care home or homecare setting. From initial checks (such as food hygiene ratings) to inspection reports and spot checks. You will be empowered to quality check and ensure that ongoing care also continues. Daunting as it seems, once you have an understanding, things are quite straightforward and I will clarify some commonly believed myths which will surprise you. Having worked as a care home inspector and as a health care professional, I know what is required to make decisions on care and funding. If eligible, some funding is not means tested (you could be a millionaire and it would not matter) and would therefore be free with nothing to pay back ever! Do not assume that someone will be kind enough to tell you your full entitlement, they will not. It is left to you to find out whether you are getting your full entitlement and to also ask for it. Furthermore, you will be encouraged to obtain a copy of the decision-making assessment and consider an appeal, should any decision not be favourable. The book is a valuable source of information and almost certainly not welcomed by both the Local Authorities and NHS, for sharing the tools they use for making funding decisions. I will tell you how means testing works for finance and the things which are disregarded for means testing. It is not a given that a home needs to be sold. The book will help you for any care home or for homecare.
