1. CARE NEEDS ASSESSMENT
A healthcare professional will assess if you require long-term nursing home care.
2. FINANCIAL ASSESSMENT
This assessment determines your contribution towards your care based on your income and assets and the level of financial support you will receive from the State.
3. NURSING HOME LOAN (OPTIONAL)
You can also apply for a Nursing Home Loan. If approved, the State will pay the nursing home on your behalf and you do not have to sell your home or other land or property during your lifetime. The loan is then repaid after your death.
