I am sure I have seen posts on here about fees increase but can't find it. My Mum is in care home that she and I are happy with. I have received a letter about an annual fee increase of 3.5%. Is this general for most parts of the country?
When dad was in his NH...Kent...annual increases of around 8/9% unfortunatelyI am sure I have seen posts on here about fees increase but can't find it. My Mum is in care home that she and I are happy with. I have received a letter about an annual fee increase of 3.5%. Is this general for most parts of the country?
I read this thread with interest and a bit of concern. My sister went into residential/nursing care in late September 2018 - her care is LA funded and she has to pay an amount which was decided on by means of a financial assessment.
Two questions:
1. If (or perhaps I should say when) the fees for her care go up will her contribution change or will that remain the same as it is based on her ability to pay?
2. Will the LA continue to fund the care with the increased cost or might they refuse funding?
Thanks for any information
