It is human nature to think “it will never happen to me”, but it is a sad fact of life that an increasing number of us may, at some point, have a loved one that may go into a residential care home or require care and support in their own home. This may be due to illness, old age or perhaps as the result of personal injury or an accident, and it often happens at the most inconvenient of times.
