We provide Palliative Care at Beaumont Manor Care Home for those who are nearing the end of their life. We endeavour to make a person’s last days, weeks, or months as comfortable as possible and extend our support to loved ones during this time.

We are glad to offer Respite Care at Beaumont Manor Care Home. Prior to admission we will evaluate a person’s care needs and assess how long someone should stay at our care home. Respite care is suitable for those who have recently had an illness, injury, or operation and cannot return to normal life straight away. It can also be arranged for someone who is caring full-time for their loved one at home and who needs a well-deserved break.

At Beaumont Manor, we support residents’ overall wellbeing through the excellent care we provide that helps to alleviate daily stresses associated with personal care, mobility, or medical care needs. We also support mental, physical, and emotional wellbeing through the all-inclusive facilities and activities we provide that enable residents to socialise with others, learn new skills, gain new experiences, and continue with their hobbies regularly. We encourage residents to live their lives the way they want to.

Our care plans are tailored to each individual and are assessed regularly to ensure that they continue to fulfill residents’ needs and requirements if a resident’s care needs change. We recognise that people’s health and wellbeing demands change over time, therefore our care is tailored to adapt to this. We work with each resident and their family members to create a personalised care plan that is ideal for them.

Residential Care provides live-in accommodation, with support 24 hours a day to those who need extra help with personal care or mobility. Nursing Care equally provides 24-hour care and support but the main differential is the assistance from a registered nurse, who is available day and night to provide medical care.

In line with recent Government recommendations effective from September 2022, in the event of the care home having a Coronavirus outbreak, residents can receive visits from one of their 3 named visitors, only once per day.

When you pay your weekly care home fees at Beaumont Manor Care Home, this includes your accommodation, all meals, snacks, and drinks, as well as any activities you participate in, in-house facilities you use, and local excursions (some may incur additional charges where applicable).

In England, care home fees are assessed based on the individual’s care needs and financial situation.

The assessment of care needs is carried out by the local authority, which will determine the level of care required and the type of care home that is appropriate. The financial assessment is also carried out by the local authority or by an independent financial advisor. It will take into account the individual’s income, savings, and assets to determine whether they need to contribute towards the cost of their care.

If the individual’s assets and income are below a certain level, they may be entitled to financial support from the local authority to help pay for their care home fees.

If an individual is deemed eligible for NHS Continuing Healthcare, their care will be fully funded by the NHS. It’s important to note that eligibility for NHS Continuing Healthcare is not based on a specific diagnosis or condition, but based on an individual’s overall care needs and the level of support required to meet those needs.

If your care home fees cost more than what your local council is willing to pay, someone else can make up the difference between that figure and the home’s fee, such as a family member.

There are different methods for paying care home fees. If the individual has been assessed as having eligible care needs and limited financial resources, the local authority may cover all or part of their care home fees.

The amount of funding will depend on the individual’s means. If the individual has complex healthcare needs that require full-time nursing care, they may be eligible for NHS Continuing Healthcare Funding. This funding covers the full cost of care, including accommodation and personal care.

If an individual has sufficient income, savings, or assets, they may be required to pay for their care home fees themselves. In some cases, family members may choose to contribute towards the cost of care. An individual’s care home fees may be paid for by a combination of sources, such as local authority funding and self-funding.

As of the date of death, all fees related with the Care Agreement will be ended. The charges for accommodation shall be covered for up to ten days following the death, or until the residence is cleaned of all personal things. We understand that this will be a challenging time for loved ones, and of course we will handle any and all proceedings with the utmost respect for you, your friends and your family.

If someone is having financial difficulties, we want to be able to help you in any way we can, whether that’s looking at different finance options or relocating you to a smaller suite inside the home. Speak to our team about how we can support you.

Fees will be reviewed annually, and any change will be advised at least 4 weeks in advance of any change taking effect. The current fee uplift is effective in April each year. For further information please contact us.
