== == Yes, utility bills are classed as unsecured debts but if you are struggling with debts then it is important that you class these as a priority debt.

If you find that you are in arrears with your suppliers then it is important that you seek debt help and advice as soon as possible. If you do not pay your bills, your supply can be cut off, in this way they are more important to pay that other form of unsecured debts, such as credit cards or store cards.

Are adult children responsible for their deceased parent's unpaid nursing home bills?

No. Not unless they agreed in writing to be responsible for those bills. A parent's estate is responsible for paying their debts whether those debts are for a nursing home, credit cards or utility bills. Their property cannot be distributed until the debts are paid. If there are not enough assets in the estate the creditors are out of luck. The exception is mortgages. If the mortgage isn't paid the bank will take possession of the property by foreclosure.
