The Help the Aged Care Fees Advice service can introduce clients to care fees specialists who can offer impartial advice on the best ways of meeting the cost of care. Developed in association with NHFA Ltd, a firm of National Independent Financial Advisers and Care Fees specialists, the service can offer practical support, advice and reassurance to older people and their families whether they need to move into a care home, or have a parent or relative who is remaining in or preparing to move into care.

Every care fees adviser is experienced and has a specialist knowledge and understanding of the intricacies of the care sector. This includes an in-depth knowledge of the many complex issues relating to funding care, welfare benefits, Local Authority procedures, inheritance and tax issues, and care choices available.

If you wish, your care fees adviser can prepare a detailed, tailored personal care fees report, outlining the different ways you may wish to consider funding your immediate or future care needs - but you can choose to receive as much, or as little guidance as you feel you may need. There is no obligation to follow any of the recommendations prepared for you. The aim is simply to take away the worry and confusion surrounding paying for the cost of care.
