In principle I agree with the thought that some items in society are beyond price , BUT in reality it is local government ie KCC who set the rate that care homes receive for residents , and this rate for care is incorporated into the council tax paid by each household .
I used to have the figures but I believe that to care for a person in a nursing home for a week wich includeds 24 hour nursing input ,all meals , heating, lighting, hot water ,activities, and care from care assistants for £3.74 p an hour . ( I think this is based on 2009 figures )
It is the people we elect and the ammount we as individuals are prepared to pay into the sysytem that need to be reasessed .
