Fees & Financial Arrangements

Fees & Financial Arrangements

Here at Somerforde, we are committed to providing an affordable service, whilst still delivering the highest standard of care possible.

Our pricing primarily depends on the individuals required level of care, each care package is tailored to the residents needs. This means each package is priced individually to cater for these needs.

Fees can be settled privately or alternatively paid via Social Services or the NHS where applicable.

We pride ourselves on using the same criteria for Private residents as Social Service residents. Fees are worked out in the same way and are needs based.

However, the rules can be complicated, and we recommend you seek specialist advice. For more information consult with Age Concern and/or Care Direct.

Care Direct (Social Services help and information line) have considerable experience and will be able to provide links to the right people.

Fee Increases

Fees for our residents are reviewed when needs change. Fees are also increased annually, usually the result of inflation within the sector and internal costs associated.
