Care Funding
PNL Nursing offers managed homecare and nursing services to sick and disabled children and adults, and older people who need assistance to live safely at home. We assist people all over London and beyond who qualify for PCT or local authority funding, who pay for care privately or through insurance companies, Direct Payments or NHS Continuing Care.
This page features links to a few websites which you may find helpful.
Sources of Funding F
Direct Payments
If you receive Direct Payments from your local council you will receive funding to pay for care in your own home. Both children and adults should have this option. PNL provides managed homecare services to Direct Payments recipients, helping them to formulate a support plan that meets all their needs and supplying a team of suitably skilled staff who will visit at agreed times.
NHS Continuing Care
Continuing Care funding may be provided to local residents who need significant health care in their own homes. Recipients have a say in what type of care they receive and who provides it. If you choose PNL Nursing to provide manage your needs we will work closely with your local NHS to put in place a comprehensive care plan and a roster of skilled community nurses and carers.
Long Term Financial Care Plans
If you want to finance long-term care needs there are a number of schemes you can consider:
- Equity release schemes
- Annuity based schemes
- Interest-only, shared appreciation or roll-up mortgages
PNL Nursing is not qualified to give financial advice and we recommend that you consult an Independent Financial Adviser.
