Dementia care experts

Our in-house experts, including Clinical Lead Sabah Shah, support our care teams to deliver compassionate dementia care at every stage of the condition.

Complex care funding

In the UK, healthcare is free at the point of delivery. That means, if you are receiving care at home for an identified care need, you may be eligible for NHS continuing care funding. This will be arranged and funded by your local Integrated Care Board (ICB). 

To find out if you may be eligible for continuing care funding from the NHS, you’ll need to visit your local GP for an initial assessment. Once this has been reviewed by the ICB, you will be invited to complete a full assessment with a multidisciplinary team of healthcare professionals to understand your complex care needs.

Some specialist conditions, like dementia, are not typically funded by the NHS Continuing Healthcare, but it’s always worth checking.
