Care Home choices for Self Funders

If you have capital (savings and assets) worth more than £23,250, or a weekly income high enough to pay for care home fees, you will not be eligible for local authority funding. If this is the case, you will have to pay for your own care. This is called self-funding.If you are in a position where your finances are over the threshold (£23,250) we would advise that you get some independent financial advice. This will help you make the best decision about how to meet the financial commitments to cover your care needs now and in the future.
