Long term care

Offering a whole of market service with no upfront costs.

Meeting the costs for paying for long term care can put a considerable financial burden on families and can even result in the dreaded sale of a much loved home. Paying for home care costs or long term care Dover, Deal or Sandwich areas can be substantial.

Thanks to better medical care and healthier lifestyles, we have the prospect of living longer. While an increase in life expectancy is good news, it has to be recognised that there are a number of financial implications that go with it. We are able to discuss various options including Care Annuities and Deferred Payment Scheme.

There are benefits that are not means tested such as, Attendance Allowance and Disability Living Allowance and we are able to offer you advice as to whether these could be available to you. Depending on your circumstances you may qualify for funding from the NHS or even your Local Authority. Even if you do, the amount you receive may not be enough to complete your care costs, either at home or in a care home. If this happens, you will need to think about how you could top up any contribution or if you have to pay for it yourself. This all depends on your health or mobility, what level of health and support you need, the value of your savings, assets and income.

Providing advice for elderly clients and for those concerned with planning for their future well-being, is an extremely complex area requiring specialist knowledge and qualifications.

What Others Say

"

We received fantastic and uncomplicated advice from Vanessa to take out our first mortgage. We changed mortgage advisor to Vanessa as the previous one we found wasn't entirely open and honest with us. It was refreshing to receive such an honest, hassle free and helpful service. I would highly recommend Vanessa's service to anyone
