Arranging home care in Bromley
Can I get help paying for home care in Bromley?
Ask Bromley Council for a free care assessment. If you are eligible, a financial assessment decides what the council pays, which you can take as a direct payment and use with us. Attendance Allowance is not means-tested, and NHS Continuing Healthcare can fund care at home where there is a primary health need.
Do you have an office in Bromley?
Our only office is in Croydon, at Airport House on Purley Way, about eight miles by road from Bromley town centre. Care in Bromley is planned and supported from there, with the same managers, the same line for urgent calls answered 24 hours a day, and the same free home visit before care starts.
How do I arrange care after the Princess Royal University Hospital?
Tell the ward's discharge team you would like care at home, then call us with the expected discharge date. We plan backwards from it and coordinate with the discharge team where it helps. District nursing at home in Bromley is provided by Bromley Healthcare, usually on referral from the hospital or GP.

Which council arranges a care needs assessment in Bromley?
