A few days ago I was asked for advice about continuing care.
This subject has lots of grey areas ,it can vary from council to council what packages are available and what criteria has to be met by service users.
Packages and criteria can vary from England and what you can expect to receive in Wales or Scotland so you need to check what your area and council would be willing to provide it is not the same across the board.
Even though Ageuk is associated with elderly members of the community, I have found an informative website www.ageuk.org.uk when you go onto the website on the left hand side look for "LA assessment for community care services" which will take you to a PDF 337KB this has a lot of information relating to continuing care, the information should apply to any adult person over the age of 18 years.
Your local Social Services are responsible for an assessment of your needs which will look at Community care services, Respite ,Day care.
Your Local Authority has the power to give people control of services to suite their individual needs via Direct Payments.
