Paying for care in Scotland (2026/27)
- Free personal care for adults assessed as needing it, at any age: in a care home the council pays £260.30 a week towards personal care, plus £117.10 a week for nursing care if needed.
- Care home fees are means-tested: savings above £36,750 mean you pay the rest of the fee yourself; below £22,750 savings are ignored, and £1 a week is counted for every £250 in between.
- Personal care at home (help with washing, dressing, eating) is free once the council assesses the need; other help at home may be charged.
