Looking for a home which meets all your needs and feels right can be really daunting. It’s often confusing knowing where to even start. You may well be asking yourself “what type of care do we need”, “should we look for residential homes or nursing homes” and “what type of care homes are available near me”?

Understanding how you or your loved one will pay the care home fees is one of the first steps to consider, yet one of the hardest to understand.
You might be wondering if you or your local authority is responsible for the cost of care or if you need to organise a financial assessment. It might be that you need clarity about whether the overall home costs change depending on the type of care.
