NHS continuing healthcare
Topics Include: CHC service provision, Personal health budgets, and NHS-funded nursing care
NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC) is the care package arranged by the NHS for people who aren’t in hospital and who have been determined to have a primary health need.
Eligible people can receive CHC in a variety of settings, including in their own home or a care home. A good care package can make the difference between a full and partial recovery.
This course describes what NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC) is and how it works. It explains how it is in place for those with serious ongoing health needs, and is decided by an assessment, explaining how complex and intense the person’s care would be along with whether they are eligible against the criteria or not. It also summarises what happens when someone doesn’t qualify for CHC, and how they may still get some help with nursing care, additionally with the chance of an appeal being reconsidered.
