Simple guide to fees & funding
Paying for long-term residential or nursing care can feel overwhelming, and understandably so. Unlike NHS healthcare, care home services are not free for most people. How much you contribute depends on personal circumstances, including income, assets, and care needs. At OSJCT, we aim to make the process of funding care as clear as possible.
What affects the cost of care?
- Type of care - residential, nursing, dementia, or respite
- Location - care costs in Boston may differ from other parts of the UK
- Individual needs - the level of daily support required
- Financial circumstances - state or private funding
What funding options are available?
- NHS Funded Nursing Care (FNC): A weekly payment from the NHS to contribute toward the cost of nursing care if it is required. This does not cover all care home fees - only the nursing element.
- Local authority funding: Means-tested support from your local council based on your finances and care needs. This may include schemes such as Deferred Payment Agreements, which allow you to use the value of your home to fund care, or the 12-Week Property Disregard, where your home is temporarily ignored in financial assessments if you have been in hospital or are receiving permanent care.
- Self-funding: If your savings and assets exceed the threshold for local authority support, you will need to pay privately for your care. Independent financial advice is recommended to plan effectively and explore all available options.
Getting the right guidance
Care funding can be complex, so we always recommend speaking with an independent specialist care fees adviser. OSJCT is affiliated with SOLLA (Society of Later Life Advisers), a professional body dedicated to advisers specialising in later-life financial planning, including care home funding.
Strong community roots
Boston has a rich sense of community, and our care homes are a meaningful part of it.
Residents enjoy visits from local groups, schools, and volunteers, as well as opportunities to stay connected with familiar places and traditions across the town.
These relationships help create a sense of belonging that’s especially valuable when moving into care.
Safe, comfortable & welcoming environments
Families choosing care often worry about safety, comfort, and whether a home will feel right.
Our Boston homes are warm, supportive spaces where residents can relax, enjoy home-cooked meals, and take part in activities that bring purpose and enjoyment to everyday life.
There was no doubt about it when the time came to look for a care home Skirbeck Court was always going to be first choice. After suffering a stroke, Mum lost the use of her left arm and leg is completely reliant on the care team to assist her in all her needs. We are very happy knowing that Mum is well looked after safe and free to live her life and make her own choices as she pleases in this well-run, clean, friendly, homely environment which is staffed by a dedicated, caring team of professionals.

How to choose the right care home in Boston
Choosing the right care home is a significant decision, and it helps to approach it step by step. Here are three guiding points many Boston families find helpful:
- Match the care to the need – whether that’s residential, dementia, nursing, or respite care in Boston, start with the level of support your loved one requires now and may need in the future.
- Visit the homes in person – meeting the team, exploring the environment, and getting a feel for daily life can make the decision clearer and more reassuring.
- Think about location and routines – staying close to familiar places in Boston, or near family and friends, often helps residents settle more comfortably.
To support your decision-making, our Care Home Checklist outlines the key questions to ask and the small details that matter, from meal choices to activity planning and visiting arrangements.
