Funding
Nursing Care can be a costly business, however, very few are aware
of the significant non-means tested help that is available. All
residents are at present entitled to:
| • |
Registered Nursing Care Contribution
(RNCC) (formerly known as “Free Nursing Care")
which is £103 per week if a resident has nursing needs. |
| • |
Attendance Allowance which is either £43.15
or £64.50 per week depending on whether a resident requires
help either during the day or night (lower rate) or both during
the day and night (higher rate). |
| • |
Single person's State Pension which is £90.70
per week
(from 9 April 2008) |
