    Funding Home Care in Glasgow

    There are several ways you may be able to help with the cost of home care in Glasgow. Depending on your needs and circumstances, support may be available through Glasgow City Council, Self-directed Support or disability benefits. A Curam care adviser can explain your care options and signpost you to appropriate independent guidance.

    Local authority support

    Glasgow City Council can assess your care and support needs and, where you are eligible, may contribute towards the cost of your care following a financial assessment.

    Self-directed Support

    In Scotland, Self-directed Support gives eligible people more choice and control over how their social care is arranged. You may be able to choose who provides your support and how your agreed care budget is used.

    Direct payments

    One Self-directed Support option is to receive a direct payment from your local authority so you can arrange eligible care and support yourself, subject to your assessed needs and agreed support plan.

    Disability benefits

    You may also be entitled to financial support such as Pension Age Disability Payment or Adult Disability Payment. Eligibility depends on your age, care needs and personal circumstances.

    Using savings or private funds

    Some people choose to fund some or all of their home care privately using income, savings or other personal funds, particularly when they want additional hours or greater flexibility over their care arrangements.

    Combining different types of support

    Depending on your circumstances, you may be able to combine local authority support, benefits and your own funds to create a care arrangement that better meets your day-to-day needs.
