What Does An All-Inclusive Care Home Mean?
Within our care home, we deliver outstanding levels of personalised care, from residential care and nursing care to dementia care and respite care; our main focus is caring for the health and wellbeing of our residents.
When it comes to care home fees and how much you pay for your care, depends on where you live, your savings, property, what time of care it is that you need and the care home provider. So, when you move into a care home, it is ideal to take a further look into seeing what’s covered by the fee. Some Care Homes in Edinburgh will charge extra for services such as toiletries and hairdressing. Being aware of all the costs will help you plan your budget accordingly, ensuring that there will be no surprises on your invoice. Whether or not care home fees are all-inclusive really depends on the care home. Usually, the items and services listed below are regularly included within a weekly care home fee…
- Professional Care
- Accommodation
- Food & Drink
- Laundry
- Communal Sanitary Items
- In-House Activities
What is Included Within All-Inclusive Care Home Fees?
When it comes to care homes providing an all-inclusive way of living, everything day to day will be included in the weekly fee, from laundry and housekeeping services to cut and blow dry appointments and even local day trips outside of the home, where friends and family can join.
The main benefits of living in an all-inclusive Residential Care Home in Edinburgh is that all residents are supported no matter what life throws their way and they’re able to continue living their life in a way that they want to, with plenty of opportunities to pursue their interests and hobbies.
Peace of Mind
When you or your loved one decides to move into a new care home, residents and their loved ones will need certainty and security.
From our experience here at Trinity House Care Home, ‘billable extras’ are unnecessary, everything is included within an inclusive fee, meaning it provides peace of mind and freedom, utilising facilities and amenities available. An all-inclusive care home will allow residents to relax and enjoy that glass of wine or beer with their meals, embrace pampering sessions or hair treatments in the in-house salon or enjoy regular entertainment that visits the home.
As the cost of living continues to rise, care homes provide a peace of mind, helping to combat the stresses of household management, including paying for bills. Energy bills are one of the largest contributors to inflation, yet living in a care home can provide reassurance, taking away the worries that people naturally feel.
Paying for Residential Care in Edinburgh
If you’re eligible for local authority funding support then your local council must calculate the overall cost of your care and with this information and through the means test, how much you have to contribute from your local financial resources can be determined. How you pay for your nursing care costs will differ from person to person and we recommend contacting your local council initially, as they’ll be able to help guide you into a financial assessment, offering you advice on how much you can be expected to pay.
