We understand that navigating the financial aspects of nursing home care can be complex and a challenging time for families. There are several funding options available to assist individuals and families in managing these costs. Understanding these options will ensure that you or your loved ones make informed decisions and receive the necessary care without undue financial strain.
Application Process:

If a significant portion of your/your loved one’s assets is/are tied up in property (e.g. your/their primary residence), a Nursing Home Loan offers the option to defer the portion of your/their contribution that is related to these assets. The HSE pays this amount on your/their behalf. This amount is to be repaid from your/your loved one’s estate after your/their passing. This funding option means you/they do not need to sell your/their home to afford care.
Understanding your/your loved one’s funding options is crucial in making informed decisions about nursing home care.
If you would like to discuss your funding options, please reach out to the individual nursing home or email [email protected]
