Have you  or a loved one been receiving paid nursing home retirement care?

Care homes can be particularly expensive, costing residents or their families anywhere around £2,000 a month. Similarly, if you require care at home, you may be paying exorbitant fees.

Thousands of people have been incorrectly assessed by health authorities, and are needlessly losing out

Many people find care home fees so expensive that they are eventually forced to sell their own homes, leaving them with nothing to bequeath to their loved ones.

Most people who pay care home or nursing fees have been assessed by their local health authority to see whether they can afford to fund their own care or not. Those with over £22,500 in assets – including their home – are deemed to be able to afford to pay for their care themselves.

However, these assessments often fail to take into account a person’s medical condition. This leads to many people with severe debilitating illnesses such as dementia or Alzheimer’s disease being made to pay thousands of pounds in care home fees when in reality they should be receiving care for free under the NHS.

Can I reclaim care home fees?

Yes you can. If a reassessment shows that you are in fact eligible for free care then you will receive a refund of all the care home fees you have already paid. You will also be given free continuing care under the NHS or contributions to help you pay for care.

Hundreds of people have already reclaimed their wrongfully paid care home fees and been given the free care that they rightfully deserve.
