There are some fundamental changes afoot in the way care and support for older people is funded in England. The coalition Government commissioned a report last year by Andrew Dilnot which recommends:
MHA welcomes a system which sets out clearly which costs the State will meet and which need to be met by individuals and families. This will provide greater certainty for older people and assist with planning care needs in later life. But the devil might be in the detail as the proposals are put together.
