NHS Continuing Healthcare.

NHS Continuing Healthcare is a package of care funded by the National Health Service (NHS) for people who have complex, ongoing healthcare needs. It is available to people who are 18 or over and who are assessed as having a primary health need. This means that the care they require is mainly due to their health needs rather than social or personal care needs.

What is NHS Continuing Healthcare?

NHS Continuing Healthcare is a package of care that is tailored to the individual’s needs. It can include healthcare services such as nursing care, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and speech and language therapy. It can also include personal care services such as help with bathing, dressing, and eating.

The package of care is provided free of charge and is arranged and funded by the NHS. The care can be provided in a variety of settings such as a person’s home, a care home, or a hospice, as well as Nursing Homes.
