Clients we support with domiciliary care insurance

Cyber liability
Cyber-crime in the health and care industry is now more frequent and sophisticated than ever. We can arrange cyber liability insurance to help protect against the risk of an attack on your business.
Management liability
If someone claims a wrongful act: as a breach of duty or trust, a negligent act, or defamation against your company. Your director may be held liable, presenting a risk to their livelihood. Management liability will protect them.
Frequently asked questions
The level of cover you need will depend on many factors. We would need to assess your business and the risks it faces, then make recommendations. Other influences that can dictate how much cover you need are the types of people you care for, local authority requirements to meet your contract terms and any previous insurance claims you have made. In larger organisations, or where several employees are in one location, we'd recommend increased limits of cover are arranged.
As an employer, you're legally required to have employers liability cover for compensation of at least �5 million, but most policies will offer cover for �10 million.
