Continuing Health Care & Funded Nursing Care
Process for NHS Continuing Health Care and Funded Nursing Care in Sheffield

The assessment of eligibility for NHS funding begins with the National Screening Tool using the Checklist Tool, which can be carried out by any health or social care professional.

If a patient is not eligible they will be passed to Neighbourhoods and Community Care to have their social care needs assessed.

If a patient is eligible a multi disciplinary team should carry out the full eligibility assessment using the Decision Support Tool.
