Lynne K I would look for outstanding although in fairness good is good😘🤗

[Lynne K]

LindaB thanks xx

[Lynne K]

LindaB I trawled through 18 pages looking for outstanding and none . I hope that the personal care list of potential carers is better but it’s a minefield the whole things isn’t it? Xx

[LindaB]

Lynne K if you follow the link above....the page has filters click on outstanding where it says refine your search...I think there are 23...but good is also ok xx

[Lynne K]

LindaB thanks xx

Hi Ellie,
When I worked for Social Services pre MND diagnosis 18 months ago care at home was funded by


1)Social services funded which included a financial assessment to determine if the person was required to pay a contribution.

2)Self funded…If the person requiring care at home had more than £23.250 in their name only then they would need to pay for carers in full until savings dropped below that figure.A contribution would then be needed.

3)Continuing health care funded.Whereby NHS pay in full for care at home and no contribution required by the care recipient.

4) Direct payment to fund personal assistant ……financed by social services with a financial assessment required to determine care recipients contribution.

best wishes
Mary

Mary C interesting to read that Mary, thanks for your efforts to type it xx

Thank you Mary - the first option must apply in this case, which is great for Matthew. I just hadn't heard of 'CIC' before.

Hope you had a lovely day yesterday - I know Christmas must have a deeper meaning to you, than it does for many of us. xx
