How do I get help?
It is important that you choose a care home that meets your needs. You are entitled to an assessment to find out exactly what your needs are, whether your care is going to be State funded or paid for privately. Even if you will be paying privately it is useful to have an assessment of your needs if there is a chance that you might need to seek funding from the council in the future.
To ask for an assessment, check eligibility and see costs, please use the link below:
