Information centre
Welcome to the Care UK information centre
Here you will find practical information on all aspects of care.
For example, if you or someone you know needs medical, health or social care, there are more choices available to you than ever before. Did you know that you have certain rights to choose the care provider you want, to deliver the care services you require?
This section is designed to help you understand how health and social care in the UK is changing, under the NHS and local authorities. We can tell you what that means for you, your family or the people in your care. It contains useful links, downloads and contact details.
If you cannot find the information you need, please let us know. We will be happy to assist you with your enquiry.
