But what does the 1k a week for a care home pay for currently, at least a third of that must be 'rent' and food, maybe the answer is more pragmatism about the true cost breakdown and a reflection on who should pay for that and why?
The care home my mum is in it works out around 17 months, so we'll be at that point in about a month's time. be interesting to see this pans out now The home she is in is brilliant but obviously expensive.
