What is included in care home fees?
Care home fees in England can vary substantially from provider to provider and from location to location. Understanding care home funding and accessing the right type of funding assistance can seem like a daunting task.
It is usual for residents in care homes to contribute to the cost of their own care. Some people have the resources to pay for their care in full, whilst others will make means-tested contributions.
The government sets national limits to determine eligibility for funding assistance. These limits can be subject to change, so it is always advisable to check the figures when choosing a care home.
At Kingfisher Court, our weekly private fees could include hairdressing, chiropody, daytrips, and daily newspapers. We can provide you more information on fees, what they cover and how they are charged when you enquire.
Paying for your own care
Those who are able to pay for their own care can contact care homes directly. Once a preferred care home has been identified, the care provider will conduct a needs-based assessment.
How much is a weekly private fee?
Our current private weekly fee at Kingfisher Court is from £1,142. This can vary due to resident dependency, size of room and location. Our Home Manager and other colleagues will be happy to discuss fees and any other questions you may have about paying for care.
