What to expect from elderly care

Since most providers list it, look at staffing levels, carer continuity and how carefully the care fits the individual.

Will I get help from Leicestershire council with the cost of a care home?
It may. Leicestershire council must offer a free care needs assessment (Care Act 2014). For a care home, the value of the home is usually included in the means test unless a partner or certain relatives still live there, and it is ignored for the first 12 weeks of a permanent stay; the upper limit in England is £23,250. NHS-funded nursing care can help with nursing costs. How to contact Leicestershire council.
