Nursing care is a residential placement with additional nursing support. Funding is as above plus a funded nursing care component (FNC) or fully funded by the NHS in the case of CHC placements (Continuing Health Care) if certain assessed conditions are agreed (like end of life care). Nursing care does not have a therapy led approach and is not intermediate care, BUT bedded intermediate care facilities with nursing that are not on a hospital site are registered with CQC as nursing care homes.
