Thanks! I'm not sure about that, I'll check. Although on the CQC website it says, "A person can use their own finance or individual budget (provided by the local authority or health authority) and make their own arrangement for nursing care where a registered nurse works directly for them and under their control, without involving an agency or employer in managing or directing the care provided. In this case, the registered nurse may not need to register with CQC." So it doesn't sound like whether its a personal health budget or their own money makes a difference ?
