Understand what deputies/attorneys need to look for in care home contracts when their mentally incapable clients must go into a home.

Hear from the experts on:

  • the formalities of signing care home contracts
  • signing on behalf of others and what should be considered with regards to deposits and advance payments
  • how NHS-funded Nursing Care (sometimes called Funded Nursing Care or FNC) is dealt with in the contract and what the contract should say when someone dies

 

Our speakers: 

  • Fiona Heald, court of protection senior solicitor at Giles Wilson Solicitors and Private Client Solicitors Section advisory committee member
  • Sharon Lamerton, lawyer and specialist in community care and NHS continuing healthcare advice at Care or Not Ltd
