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 Warminster 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.

Rooted in the local community

Our care homes in Warminster are closely connected to the local area.

Residents benefit from familiar surroundings and community links that help daily life feel grounded and reassuring, rather than disconnected from the world outside.

We prioritise regular communication, shared care planning, and clear guidance, helping families feel informed, involved, and confident in the care being provided.

Such wonderful care for my dad who was in the dementia unit. They were very efficient, so kind and caring looking after his every need and providing a safe place for him. The care home manager was above and beyond. We can never thank them enough for how they cared for Dad.
