Learn about the Continuing Care criteria and the NHS
If you have an elderly relative who you feel has health needs
which should make them eligible for NHS care, then you may want to
know about the Continuing Care criteria for
receiving support.
The criteria for Continuing Care clearly state that where an
elderly individual requires extensive round-the-clock nursing care
due to health needs, their care home fees should be paid for when
their needs could not be expected to be taken care of by the local
social services.
The Continuing Care criteria also state that these health needs
must be the primary reason due to which they require this type of
care - it cannot be ancillary to the reason they will need to go
into care. If they meet these Continuing Care criteria, they should
be eligible for NHS funding, but unfortunately many elderly people
are wrongly assessed and denied the NHS payments they should be
receiving.
If a loved one of yours has had a health assessment and failed
to qualify for funding when you feel they meet all the Continuing
Care criteria, you may have a case to make a claim. Just fill out
the form on this page and submit your details to us - we will be in
touch soon to discuss your case.

"I just had to put pen to paper and write to say I'm more than delighted with my settlement that you won me back from my PPI I had with Lloyds TSB. The Claim Forms were simple to fill in. It was a breeze"
