The options for funding your care<\/h2>\n \n

How to fund long-term care is an important consideration when looking at home care.<\/p>\n \n \n

Depending on your personal circumstances, there may be public funding or benefits available to you, or other finance options.
\nMost of our customers fund their care privately or via direct payments. If you\u2019re funding care yourself, we do recommend that you first research whether any benefits are available to you. We\u2019ve provided lots of advice here to help you get started and point you in the right direction.<\/p>\n

Other funding options you may want to consider include purchasing an immediate needs annuity. We also get asked many questions around lasting power of attorney and other asset-related matters.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n
