Discounts for Patients in Nursing or Care Home
People living in residential care homes, nursing homes, mental nursing homes and hostels providing a high level of care are disregarded for Council Tax purposes, as long as it is their only or main home. Depending on circumstances, this may relate to patients too, for example if a member of your household has moved into a care home
To apply please complete our Care or Nursing Homes Council Tax Discount form
if you are moving directly and permanently to a Care Home from a period in hospital, you may be entitled to a further reduction of council tax from the date of your hospital admission. For more information, please see our Patients in Hospital page
