The cost of a care home stay can vary and depends on factors such as the type of support needed and the location of the care home.
For a more accurate idea of how much it costs to stay at Tarring Manor Care Home, please visit our Choosing and Funding Care page or enquire directly with us.
Several factors can influence the cost of care, including:
- Whether you are receiving permanent or temporary care
- The location of the care home
- Individual care home fees
- The type of care you receive, such as residential or dementia care
A premium is added to the cost of respite care or a short stay because these residents enjoy all the benefits offered to permanent residents.
To organise funding, the first step is for your local authority to assess your care needs. They will create a report about your needs and the type of care that would best suit you.
Once the type of care needed is determined, an income assessment will be carried out. This considers various aspects of your income, such as work, assets and pensions. This will determine if you are eligible for help from your local authority or other funding options.
If you have a partner who still lives in your home, then your home won’t be included in the means test and you won’t have to sell it. However, if you live alone in the property, it will be considered as part of your total capital assets, which may affect your eligibility for support.
While many people who move into full-time residential care do sell their homes, it’s important to consider all options (for example, renting out your home) and to speak to an independent financial advisor.
