Care home insurance is designed to protect your business against unforeseen events that could lead to financial loss and impact your ability to trade. The industry faces many challenges and risks, so comprehensive insurance is essential. Without the right nursing home insurance in place, you may be personally accountable for third party claims, as well as property damage that may occur in the course of your business.
When deciding what insurance and covers you need to protect your business, you should consider the following:

Care home insurance is designed to cater to a variety of trades in this sector; from care homes to nursing homes, retirement homes and residential care, to hospices. Your insurance cover can be tailored to cover your specific trading activities and ensure you have comprehensive insurance to protect your business.

Your work could be focused on helping people with mental health issues or physical disabilities, or working in a supported living environment or a retirement village. Whatever your speciality, bespoke insurance is needed to protect your business against a number of unexpected events.

Typically, care home insurance can cover your buildings, equipment, clients, staff, and general trading activities. Covers to consider include:

  • Public liability – for injuries or damage to members of the public or their property.
  • Employers' liability – to cover your employees.
  • Buildings cover – to cover for loss or damage to your premises.
  • Equipment, contents and stock – to reinstate your items and belongings.
  • Business interruption – to keep finances running when disaster strikes.
  • Business legal expenses – to cover the cost of legal expenses or defending your business against legal action.
  • Cyber liability - for cover against any loss or damage to electronic data as a result of cyber-attacks or other security breaches.
  • Medical malpractice - provides financial protection to medical professionals in the event of a claim of medical malpractice or negligence.
  • Engineering insurance - for equipment or machinery that is critical to business operations.
The cost of care home insurance can vary depending on a number of factors, including the size of your care home, the level of cover you need, and the other risks associated with the care industry. We suggest you obtain quotes from multiple insurers in order to compare covers and find the best price. At Premierline we can help you compare quotes from the UK's top business insurers.
