Hi
I have just signed up for free which just to check whats what for a month
I noticed they have info on Relatives needs, housing options, financial care and carers. Should the worst happen.
Not wishing to upset anyone we had this problem with hubbys mother and recently hubby friend who gone now.
But if you need care and the social service come calling they love to do an assesment.. on you.
1. So you lived in a council house all your life, all repairs done everthing taken care of you now only have a pension but no property assets.
Care home is free and they have your pension and you get meagre pittance spending money back
2. You have lived in your own property you have the upkeep of all maintenance so financially always spending every year.
care home you have to pay until all money is gone then pension taken off you and your given a meagre pittance for spending money..
Does this mean we have to keep every receipt we spend on the propety to off set loosing house?
I may have goofed this in my reasoning a bit so don't bark at me please... but just wanted your views as it is a scarry thought. But one that seems to be at the fore front quite a bit, your views?
To our nice mods who will read this and who may think not a proper subject that's fine I was just wondering xx
