Proposed Cap on Care Home Fees Scrapped 18:17 - Jul 29 with 848 viewsJACKMANANDBOY

The proposed £86,0000 contribution limit on care home fees has been scrapped today. That'll save a £1 Billion a year or rather cost the population £1Billion.

How does that affect the Welsh population as we have a different system .?

From what I understand in Wales the cap is £50k, any assets over £50k can be used to pay for care. I’m not 100% sure on this though and happy to be proved wrong.

I’d still be inclined to save one if I saw it drowning.

Yes my Dad funded his own care, total bill was £600,000. He had to sell everything including his home and had about £50K at the end, indirect taxation of someone who worked for 45 years running his own business, paid a lot of tax and never claimed a penny in benefits.

Yes always employed at least two people, treated them well and generally did his bit. As he said " I'm being taxed to death ".

This business with the care home fees really annoys me. Previous governments have kicked this can down the road and no one has grasped the nettle. The proposed cap is just that, it’s a proposal and the Conservatives did nothing to protect people and neither did Labour before them.

People have saved their hard earned for a better life for themselves and for their kids afterwards and the greedy care home shysters are ripping them off.

My Dad paid £1000 a week or so for 24 hour nursing care. When you consider the costs of running a care home, wages for care staff and nursing staff, heating, business rates and taxes it doesn't seem to be too wide of the mark.
