Can Somerset council help pay for home care?
It may. Somerset council must offer a free care needs assessment to anyone who appears to need support (Care Act 2014). If savings and investments are below £23,250, the council may contribute after a financial assessment, depending on income, and for care at home the value of the home is not counted. Attendance Allowance is not means-tested. How to contact Somerset council.
How can I pick between agencies in Bridgwater?
Check how recent each CQC report is first: 4 of the 14 on this page were inspected or rated in the past two years; 4 have older reports. Next ask three things: will staff be consistent, what happens about missed visits, and what is the full price? Use our checklist.
