Fee Structure & Terms & Conditions

Fees are based on individuals nursing needs, staffing requirements, size of room, facilities, location and aspect. Fees will be quoted within a range or starting from…… this will be confirmed following a Pre-assessment visit. Fees are reviewed if there is any prolonged change of nursing dependency following admission and also annually by the Board of Trustees every November with any changes to take effect from the 1st January. The annual increase is always kept to an absolute minimum and is calculated based on actual costs of running the home and not on local market conditions or the wider economic picture as we are a not for profit organisation. The percentage increase in the last 5 years has been between 2.5% and 4%.

Each person will be given an Agreement which states our terms and conditions of residency. This is our contract with you and must be read and signed prior to admission. An opportunity will be given to you to discuss anything that you may be uncertain about. This Agreement details the room to be occupied, the cost per month and our payment method, which is by Direct Debit. A first invoice will also be included which details the calculation of costs from admission, and will also include a fully refundable 4 week deposit. This money is security and is to protect us against any risk of nonpayment, however it is ring fenced and is fully refunded on the event of you leaving or sadly passing away. If you have nominated an individual/individuals as Power of Attorney for you, we will need to have a copy of this for our records. There will be two copies of the Agreement which will need to be signed by the Registered Manager acting on behalf of the Trustees, the Individual and the Appointed Representative. One copy to be held by you and the other returned and retained for our records.
