Paying for care in your own home

Information for people receiving home care services or who are using Direct Payments to pay for care in their home:

  • charges for home care
  • the financial assessment
  • how to pay.  

Direct payments (adults) and Direct payments (children)

If you need support to help you or your child live at home we could provide you with the money to arrange your own care or support instead of providing it for you. This is called direct payments.
