Financial Assistance For Nursing Care For Elderly People In Residential Homes

EDM number 855 in 2001-02, proposed by Wayne David on 13/02/2002.

That this House welcomes the fact that the Government has decided to provide financial assistance to pay for the nursing care of elderly people who require long-term care; notes that these payments apply to individuals living at home or in residential homes; is however, very concerned that when payments are awarded to people in care homes the money is paid direct to the care home and in some instances the financial benefit is not being passed on to the resident; and calls on the Government to examine the extent of this activity and prepare appropriate regulations to prevent this unfair practice which is depriving some of the most weak and vulnerable elderly people of financial support which is intended for them.

This motion has been signed by a total of 61 MPs.
