What insurance cover does a care home require?
The level of insurance your residential care home requires depends on a number of factors including the type of people you care for, and local authority requirements to meet the terms of the contract.
In a standard care home insurance policy, you’ll be covered for:
- Employers liability.
- Public and products liability.
- Professional liability including medical malpractice and abuse cover.
- Business interruption.
- Property damage.
We work with a wide range of care home businesses, helping them to protect their reputation, tackle everyday challenges and remain compliant.
