Jill’s Story

We helped with

CHC funding

Farley Dwek Solicitors were instructed by ‘Jill’ (not her real name) in July 2018. Her Mother, Mrs X (for anonymity) had been assessed in October 2017 and found not eligible for CHC funding despite having multiple complex and challenging healthcare needs. The negative outcome had been appealed by Jill prior to her Mother’s death in April 2018, and she subsequently sought our support and advocacy representation in connection with the appeal.

We reviewed evidence and prepared a full Appeal Submission in readiness for the NHS Local Resolution appeal meeting. The CCG upheld the appeal and agreed that Mrs X was eligible for full CHC funding from October 2017 to the date of death in April 2018.

We had also noted that Mrs X had not previously been assessed for CHC funding from admission into the Care Home in February 2016 until October 2017. Following the successful appeal, we requested that the CCG now undertake a retrospective review of this unassessed period as well. The CCG’s review concluded that Mrs X was eligible for CHC funding for part of this period, too.

In total, Farley Dwek have successfully helped Jill recover 14 months of CHC funding for her late mother’s care.

We would thoroughly recommend Farley Dwek as an organisation and Debbie Payton in particular. We feel that all that she has achieved on behalf of my father is worth every penny and we believe we could not have got this outcome without her. We cannot thank Debbie enough.

Without Farley Dwek's encouragement and perseverance, I don’t think that I would have proceeded with the claim, nor would it have resulted in such a successful outcome without their professional input at every stage. Their attention to detail, care and support throughout this process has been exemplary.

I found this firm to be thorough, professional, knowledgeable, and available when needed. The outcome was exactly what we had been hoping for. I have no doubt that this firm played a significant role in achieving that.

CHC client

My family and I cannot rate Farley Dwek Solicitors high enough for all their work in helping us with a successful appeal to grant my father CHC in his care home. As soon as I contacted them I felt listened to and supported and our solicitor Debbie was nothing short of incredible. Very knowledgeable in her field, always ready to offer insight and support and quick to respond to queries, we would have been lost without her! If you are looking for some advice and guidance on CHC’s look no further. Recommend without hesitation.

I am over the moon with the way in which Farley Dwek Solicitors have handled my late father’s claim. We were kept informed throughout the whole process and had frequent contact with our solicitor, Jonathan Dwek. His experience and empathy instilled great confidence and I am delighted with the outcome.
