HOW WE CAN HELP:
At Compass CHC we are unique because we specialise in securing continuing healthcare funding from day one. We know our clients don’t want to pay care fees for months, or even years, and then spend many hours (and incur thousands of pounds) seeking to recover these fees in the future so we help secure funding on an ongoing basis meaning there are no fees to pay. Why pay care fees and then try to recover them? We can stop the fees now.
If your relative has a primary health need and suffers from issues such as dementia, Parkinson’s or Alzheimer’s submit an enquiry for a free, no obligation and confidential telephone assessment.
With average costs of care for a nursing home in England and Wales sometimes exceeding £1,800 a week, paying for care homes or paying for care whilst remaining in the family home can be extremely expensive. An individual’s entire life savings can be spent on their care, often with the family home being sold to meet the costs.
However if an individual’s primary need for care is a health need the full cost of their care should be paid by the NHS through continuing healthcare funding (also known as CHC funding).
NHS continuing healthcare is a free package of care provided by the NHS to individuals with significant healthcare needs. NHS continuing healthcare can be received in any setting outside of hospital including care homes, hospices or even within your own home. A person’s health needs, not their location, is the key factor to receiving continuing healthcare funding.
Importantly, it doesn’t matter what your income is or what savings you have, if you meet the criteria, you are entitled to free NHS CHC funding. NHS continuing healthcare funding is not means tested and it can cover up to 100% of care costs.

URGENT DEVELOPMENT:
CAP ON CARE COSTS CANCELLED
The proposed cap on care costs due to commence in 2025, that would limit care costs to a maximum of £86,000, has been scrapped and will not be implemented.
It is now more crucial than ever to secure Continuing Healthcare funding if an individual is entitled to it, as there is no upper limit on what care costs can be paid in a lifetime.
