Our cost guide has more detail.
Will Leicestershire council pay for a care home?
Possibly. The Care Act 2014 means Leicestershire council has to assess care needs without charge. For a care home, the means test usually includes your home's value, unless your partner, or certain other relatives, still live in it, and never in the first 12 weeks of a permanent stay. The capital limit above which you pay in full is £23,250 in England, and NHS-funded nursing care can meet some nursing costs. Contacting Leicestershire council.
What should I look for when choosing care homes in Whetstone?
