Lynne K sorry your partner is 'frazzled'...he needs a carers assessment where this can be adressed...you shouldnt have to take the brunt of it...take care 🙏

Yes I know Linda. I’ve been waiting ages for a social care assessment. It can’t come soon enough and fingers crossed that carers will be available because Kevin Winch of Home Instead said that he can’t provide carers at the time because lots of his staff are isolating and he said other agencies will be the same xx

Just met three of my team and they are great! 👍😁👀👌xx

That’s great Mathew. I haven’t had an assessment yet but hopefully soon as Steve will get frazzled and I’ll be the one person that he can take it out on (he needs someone to let steam off on and I’m not up for it but sometimes it gets thrown my way) xx

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

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

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