What is Care To Be Different?
We are a specialist consultancy providing practical advice and information about NHS Continuing Healthcare.
Our information products and advice services help families:
- apply for NHS Continuing Heatlhcare funding, including retrospectively
- make a better decision when choosing a care home
- prevent an elderly relative being discharged from hospital before being properly assessed for Continuing Healthcare
Providing clarity in a complex care system
The UK care system can be confusing, and there is often very little clear information for families about what should and shouldn’t happen when someone needs long-term care. Many families feel that the system is designed to stop elderly people accessing the care funding they’re entitled to.
Complementing existing elderly care organisations
We’re not aiming to duplicate the work of other organisations or of the many charities related to elderly care. Instead, Care To Be Different is your care fees companion – providing you with practical advice that is not easily available elsewhere.
Because we’re an independent company, and not affiliated to any government body, we’re not afraid to challenge flawed practice and outdated thinking in elderly care. We’re also independent of any charity.
NOTE: We do not give legal, financial or medical advice. Our information and advice comes from proven, practical, first-hand experience of the UK care system. We can also put you in contact with relevant specialists, should you need them.
