Carer's allowance in hospital
The day you are admitted is treated as a day out of hospital and the day you are discharged is treated as a day in hospital.
If you go into hospital, your carer’s allowance will stop after 12 weeks.
If the person you are caring for goes into hospital, your carer’s allowance will stop when their attendance allowance, disability living allowance or child disability payment care component, or personal independence payment or adult disability payment daily living component stops.
