FUNDING YOUR RESIDENTIAL DEMENTIA CARE

Funding residential dementia care is a sensitive subject but one that needs broaching before it is needed. By knowing a few facts and where to go for advice means you are heading in the right direction to being prepared.

Care is means tested and in turn you may have to pay for your own dementia care, whether this is through savings, assets and/or benefits. There are a number of different ways to pay for dementia care; through selling a property or by other means:

The Deferred Payment Scheme

The local authority pay for your care by putting a charge on your property.

Renting out your property

By renting out your property, the rental income pays for your dementia care

Equity Release

Capital is raised by mortgaging your property, which can also mean paying a higher level of interest.

Care Free Annuity

Some of your capital can be used to buy an income to pay for your residential care for the rest of your life. However the cost of the annuity varies from person to person so it is important to find this out.

Cash

If you have cash savings in the bank, you pay for your dementia care with these funds.

Investments

By investing, you provide an income to pay for your residential dementia care.

Testimonial

Telling the stories

It’s a privilege to be able to put my mother in this wonderful care home and take away a major family problem with my mother’s dementia following a stroke for my father.
The place is amazing, clean, tidy, modern. The staff and carers are fantastic to the residents and what the management do along with
the lady who manages the nurses and carers.

Paul S (Son of Resident)

Mum has only been in the home for a short period of time and has settled in fairly quickly.
This has to be attributed to the caring, considerate nature of all the staff.
Nothing seems to be too much trouble.
The residents are treated extremely well.
