Paying for care and support at home

What does it do?

You might need to pay for some or all of the care and support you receive at home. Or you might not need to pay anything at all.

We will do a financial assessment after your care and support package is in place - as identified in your care needs assessment.

A financial assessment will look at how much you need to contribute towards the cost of your support, and if you can get help to pay for it.

You'll be offered a benefit check by a member of the Benefits Maximisation Service, who will make sure you are receiving all the benefits you are entitled to.
