How long is a piece of string? If there are staff available, uncomplicated needs, no funding problems, the house doesn't need altering and everyone is in agreement then it can be as quick as 48 hours, especially of the person is at high risk without it. If there are issues then longer. If he person is in hospital, it used to be the case that social service could be fined for any dealy once the person was ready to leave. Not sure if this is still th case.
Quickerthan 48 hrs in some cases - main stumbling block is funding usually

So it's the funding that causes any delays? Thank you, both.
not always funding but yes often.
I had to have some alterations done before Mic came home. Funding was not an issue as we don't get any.
It depends who's doing it. Half an hour can be long enough for us.
My daughters father-in-law has a package, which took some while to get together, but actually waited virtually 6 months to get a much needed stair lift installed, and that was after it was agreed.
