Care insurance

We understand that running a care home can be as challenging as it is rewarding. Issues such as increasing regulation mean it’s important to make sure you have specialist care insurance that gives you the cover you need.

We’ve been insuring care homes for over 30 years, and our care insurance is based on the thousands of conversations we’ve had with care homes and organisations like yours. So you can be sure that we understand what it means to provide specialist care insurance at competitive premiums. Find your nearest care insurance broker using the postcode search on the right.

As well as specialist covers, our care insurance gives you expert guidance, advice and support designed especially for care homes, including risk management guidance notes and a free valuation service**. And with 92% of our customers very or extremely satisfied*** with our 24-hour claims service, you can also be confident we’ll be ready to resolve claims as quickly and fairly as we can.
