Paying for care and support at home
When you have been identified as requiring a care assessment, your care manager will advise our financial assessment team that a financial assessment needs to be carried out.
Other benefits
You may be entitled to other benefits.
We may be able to help you to apply for any benefits you are entitled to claim.
How much will you have to pay?
The amount you will have to pay towards your care services will be calculated by a financial assessment.

If you have capital assets (savings, stocks and shares, and other investments - not including the value of the house in which you live) of more than £23,250, you will need to pay the actual cost of the care and support you receive.
If you own or part own a property (other than the main or only home in you live in), the value of that property will be included in your financial assessment, based on the percentage of ownership.
