Legally restrict charges after death by care homes & assisted living providers — 73 signatures. Status: open.
We ask the government to introduce a legal limit on the number days care homes & assisted living providers can continue charging after a resident’s death. Many families face unexpected and continuing charges after a loved one dies. We believe there should be a fair national limit on post-death fees
Many families discover only after bereavement that substantial fees may continue to be charged after death or recovered from the deceased's estate. We believe clearer national rules are needed to prevent disproportionate charging practices and protect bereaved families from financial distress. We call on the government to cap post-death charges.
