The carer (there are certain conditions) will be an exempt adult however to get a 100% discount all people in the house have to be either SMI or a student.
You will be able to get up to a 50% discount, each LA is different, but as the owner of the property you are liable for the charge.
Sec 8 of this fact sheet covers it....
