Can I choose my residential or nursing home?
You can choose your home as long as the accommodation is suitable for your needs and available at the cost we have agreed in your personal budget. The chosen care home will also need to agree to our terms and conditions and sign a contract with us. If you choose a care home that is more expensive, there will need to be a top-up payment to cover the difference, this usually needs to be paid by a third party, and is in addition to your own assessed contribution.
