Eligibility and funding

Who is eligible

The Digital Health and Care Technology Service is for adults aged 18 and over who may need extra support to stay safe and independent at home.

You may be eligible if you:

  • live in the Royal Borough of Greenwich
  • receive care or support through adult social care or the NHS
  • have recently been in hospital or are recovering at home
  • are supported by a reablement team or Continuing Healthcare team

What it involves

If you are eligible for support through adult social care or the NHS, the Digital Health and Care Technology Service is free. This includes the equipment, setup, and ongoing monitoring.

If you are not eligible for free support, you can still choose to access the service through a self-funded option. This costs £6.10 per week. There are no hidden charges, and no financial assessment is required.
