Charges for non-residential care services
We want to help you live in your own home for as long and as independently as possible. To do this we have a range of non-residential help and support available, such as:
- Direct payments
- Homecare
- Going to day centres
- Transport.
How much do these services cost?
We will carry out a financial assessment to work out how much you will have to pay for services such as:
- Independent Living Services including Homecare Support (personal care), Domiciliary Care (practical support and domestic services) and Outreach Services/Community Access
- Day care (excluding day care as part of your residential care package)
- Transport we provide
- Services provided via a personal budget, including those paid through a direct payment.
Some people may be exempt from charges, there is more information on exemptions on the next page.
How are services provided?
We provide the services through a personal budget to give you more control over the support you get. You will be able to choose from a variety of services that are tailored to meet your needs.
Will I have to pay?
If you get our support, you may have to make a contribution towards the cost of your services.
We may ask you to complete a financial assessment form to give us more information about your income and savings as well as things you have to pay for. We will then work out whether you have to pay a contribution and how much. We explain how we do this on page 3 How we work out what you will pay.
