| Annotation | This guide is for people who are considering care in a (nursing or residential) care home for themselves or someone they advise. It aims to answer the most commonly asked questions about choosing, paying for and living in a care home. It sets out the procedures to be expected and the service that should be available, and is mainly written for those living in, or moving to, England and Wales. It only provides basic information for Scotland and excludes Northern Ireland. The figures given in this guide for benefits, allowances and savings thresholds will have been updated in March 2005, and the reader is directed to Counsel and Care's website or to its Advice Line. The guide is the result of collaborative work between Counsel and Care, specialists in the Department of Health (DH), and the voluntary, private and statutory sectors. (RH). |
