39. Social services in the EEA - care homes

Important note

When you are thinking about going to live in another EEA country, you should also think about how you would cope when you become older or if you became ill, or if you were left on your own.

There may be very few care homes that are paid for by the state or local authority and places in them may be rare. It costs a lot for a place in a home that is run privately and the UK government cannot help you with the cost.
