I've consistently paid money into National Health and Taxes, why should I give up my home to pay care costs?

Nigel.

But if you need NHS care i.e. medical attention, then you get it, without paying, as you do at any other age.

Long Term Care is for those who are medically sound, but unable to manage to run their own home. That, to me, seems slightly different and it could be viewed (as I do) that I am simply swapping my own home for a place in someone elses. Afterall, what use is my own home if I am unable to cook, clean and generally enjoy it?
