Care Home Insurance — Specialist Cover for Residential Care

Care home insurance is a specialist policy designed to protect care homes from risks such as liability claims, property damage, staff injuries, and regulatory challenges. Running a care home involves unique responsibilities — you are caring for vulnerable residents around the clock, and the consequences of an incident can be significant for your residents, your staff, and your business.

At UK Sure, we provide flexible and bespoke care home insurance solutions that cater to various care homes — nursing homes, hospices, dementia care homes, homes for adults with learning difficulties, homes for people with physical disabilities, and assisted living facilities. Our policies cover public liability, employer's liability, professional indemnity, buildings and contents, business interruption, and specialist care home risks.

Whether you run a single care home or a group of facilities, UK Sure will find the right cover.
