Paying for Long-Term Care

Ruth Alexander presents a programme offering help and advice on arranging and paying for long-term care.

Trying to arrange or pay for long term care? Who will meet the cost, the NHS, Local Authority or you? Call 03700 100 444 from 1pm and 3pm on Wednesday or email moneybox@bbc.co.uk with your long-term care questions.

How do you find care and support for yourself or somebody in need?

What will it cost to provide care at home or to move into a care home?

Will illness or disability entitle you to assistance from the NHS?

Do you qualify for local authority funding?

Are you missing out on benefit payments?

Or perhaps you need help preparing for or challenging an assessment?

Joining Ruth Alexander to offer help and advice will be:

Lisa Morgan, Partner and Nursing Care Specialist, Hugh James.
Ranald Mair, Chief Executive, Scottish Care.
Diane Needham, Chartered Financial Planner, Consilia Wealth Management.

To talk to the team call 03700 100 444 from 1pm to 3.30pm on Wednesday or e-mail your question to moneybox@bbc.co.uk now. Standard geographic call charges apply.
