Understanding Self-funded care

Self-funded care refers to the arrangement where individuals or their families pay for care services directly, rather than relying on insurance or government funding. This approach offers flexibility and control over the types of services received, allowing for personalized care that meets specific needs.

Key benefits of self-funded care:

• Flexibility in Service Choice: Individuals can select the types of care that best suit their preferences, whether it’s in-home support, assisted living, or specialized care.
• Personalized Care Plans: Self-funding allows for tailored care plans that cater to unique needs, ensuring that the individual receives the exact level of support they require.
• Immediate Access to Services: Without waiting for government assistance, individuals can access care services promptly when they are needed.
• Control Over Spending: Families can decide how to allocate funds for care, prioritizing the services and support that are most important to them

Considerations for self-funded care:

• Budgeting: It’s important to assess financial resources and create a budget to ensure sustainable care over time.
• Understanding Costs: Familiarize yourself with the costs associated with various care services to make informed decisions.
• Long-Term Planning: Consider future care needs and how self-funding can support them, including the potential for escalating costs.
