Care funding options available in Darlington

You might have family members who will fund your care, or perhaps you’re funding it yourself, but if neither of those options are available to you then what’s your alternative? Your local council in Darlington may be able to provide guidance and assistance, as well as a financial assessment to determine whether you’re eligible for any benefits of healthcare funding.


Benefits available to you in Darlington

Most of our customers pay for their care privately, but we do also accept ‘top-ups’ from your local authority if you’re eligible for council funding. We recommend spending some time in the FAQs on our website, where you’ll find a helpful section dedicated to care funding. It may also be worth contacting a care funding expert so that you can be certain you’ve explored all options available to you.
