the elderly care maze

Finding a way through the maze of options on elderly care for yourself or someone else is not easy. 

The elderly care system is complicated; and individual situations can be quite complex and often require many factors to be taken into account. 

Working with Grace Care, which has more than 25 years’ experience in elderly care advice, and is a founding member of the Association of Independent Care Advisers, we have outlined some key facts and useful information to be aware of, as part of our elderly care maze overview, covering:

care options

the cost of care

who pays?

the role of social services

As you will see from our elderly care maze overview, circumstances can vary greatly from individual to individual and the care system is complex, so it may be appropriate to seek specialist advice. 

Please be aware: our elderly care maze overview is based on current information.   Rules vary according to each local authority and individual circumstances, and may be subject to change.  It provides a basic summary only, so you should not rely on it to make decisions.
