F&Q's

We offer professional support with Continuing Healthcare (CHC) assessments, Care Act assessments, Mental Capacity Assessments, COP3 forms for Court of Protection, Discharge Support services, and Brokerage for care arrangements. Our expert guidance ensures that families and individuals receive the funding, care, and support they are entitled to.

Continuing Healthcare is a package of care fully funded by the NHS for individuals with complex health needs. Adult Care Consultancy specialises in helping families navigate the CHC checklist, full assessments, and appeals to secure the funding they deserve.

A Mental Capacity Assessment is necessary when there are concerns about a person's ability to make decisions regarding their health, welfare, or finances. This is essential for Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) applications, Deputyship, or where the Court of Protection requires evidence of capacity.

We assist clients by providing COP3 capacity assessments and guidance through the entire Deputyship application process. This includes submitting forms and liaising with the Court of Protection to ensure all legal requirements are met.

A Care Act Assessment determines whether an individual qualifies for support and services from their local authority under the Care Act 2014. Our consultants help clients understand their rights and guide them through this process to ensure appropriate care and support.

Our care brokerage service helps individuals and families source and arrange the right care providers, whether for home care, residential care, or specialist services. We use our expertise and network to ensure quality care tailored to individual needs.

Yes, we offer discharge support to ensure that appropriate care packages are in place before an individual leaves the hospital. This prevents delays and ensures continuity of care at home or in a care setting.

We provide our services across England and Wales, with virtual consultations and home visits where required. Whether you are based in London, Manchester, Birmingham, or rural areas, we can support you.

You can book a consultation via our website’s contact form, by email at info@adultcareconsultancy.com, or by calling us directly. We respond promptly to all enquiries.

The COP3 form is required by the Court of Protection to confirm whether a person has the mental capacity to make specific decisions. Our trained professionals complete the COP3 form following a formal mental capacity assessment to support Deputyship applications.

A standard mental capacity assessment usually takes between 1 to 2 hours, depending on the complexity of the individual's needs. We provide a comprehensive report within a few days of assessment completion.

Yes, if you disagree with an NHS Continuing Healthcare funding decision, you have the right to request a review or appeal. We specialise in preparing appeals, gathering necessary evidence, and representing families during review panels.

The process begins with a CHC checklist assessment followed by a full assessment if eligible. If the criteria are met, a multidisciplinary team makes the final decision. We guide you through every step, from initial checks to appeals if necessary.

Our service costs vary depending on the type of assessment or support required. We offer transparent pricing with no hidden fees, and initial consultations are available to discuss your needs. Contact us for a personalised quote.
