Care homes
The iESE Fair Cost of Care tool for care homes is now live and available to download and use for free. The tool is based on the CareCubed platform (formerly Care Fund Calculator) already available.
The completion of this tool is a significant step in determining what is a 'fair' local cost of care and assisting us in understanding what is required to work towards this. All care homes are, therefore, strongly encouraged to participate and complete the tool for their home by Sunday 26 June.
For a range of helpful documents and videos to get you started in the fair cost of care tool, use the Fair Cost of Care Awareness Pack For Care Providers
Please note: The iESE tool will be the only tool Hillingdon Council will be using to complete the Fair Cost of Care exercise.
Answers to questions
The LGA have put together responses to the most common questions received from local authorities, care providers and partners; please use this link which shows these questions and responses and aims to support those involved in Fair Cost of Care Fund exercises to work together to obtain a robust picture of local costs of care and meet the Department of Health and Social Care grant conditions.
