Care Home Advice Northampton

When a person enters care, they are automatically “means tested”, meaning their assets are assessed, including their home. People who have very few assets end up escaping the costs of care. People who have assets below the £14,250 threshold will be entitled to the maximum possible public funding. Contact Life us today to find out how we can protect your estate from these costs.

What can happen?

  • Your home may have to be sold to pay for your long term care costs
  • Any income would be assessed and used towards the cost of your care
  • Your savings and investments could be wiped out
  • Your children and grandchildren could lose their entire inheritance

What will I have to pay?

Should you or a family member require long term care we can provide help and advice in relation to a number of issues that could arise. Where a financial assessment is required, we can assist with this and ensure that the correct approach is adopted by the council or local authority, and that all the necessary processes are followed. For example, has a Continuing Healthcare Assessment and a Needs Assessment been conducted?

When it comes to moving into a home, we can provide advice on the appropriateness of the contract for the placement, and we can continue to liaise with a local authority or council on your behalf if issues arise regarding the outcome of a financial assessment.

Should you have any concerns at all at what can be a difficult time, we are able to provide help and assistance. If a loved one is no longer able to manage their own affairs, we are also able to offer advice on Powers of Attorney.

I had the pleasure of working with James from Elsby & Co as my accountant, and I cannot recommend him enough. James is an expert in his field, and he provided me with fantastic accounting services that went above and beyond my expectations.
James took the time to understand my business and my financial needs, and he provided me with tailored advice and solutions that helped me to improve my bottom line. He is knowledgeable, efficient, and detail-oriented, ensuring that all of my financial records were accurate and up-to-date.
In addition to his technical abilities, James is also a pleasure to work with. He is friendly, approachable, and always available to answer any questions I had. He made the often-daunting process of managing my finances a breeze, and I always felt confident that my financial affairs were in good hands.
Overall, I cannot recommend James and Elsby & Co enough. If you are looking for an accountant who can provide you with top-notch services and help you to achieve your financial goals, look no further. James is the best in the business, and I guarantee that you will not be disappointed!

Formerly Trevor Newell Accountants, i was a little apprehensive when i learnt a new accountants would be doing my accounts. Dipesh is now my accountant & after a little misunderstanding on my part probably i am happy with how things work & that he is doing a good job on my behalf & explains things well.

Personal tax has become complex for me, and Elsby were able to review my position and do a professional job of filing the return for me, incidentally helping me save some money as well as giving me two days back.  Very helpful and friendly, as well as clear and fast.
