Pricing

Each client’s needs are different and the cost of care will depend on the frequency and length of the visits required.

Before care is put in place, The Beeches will offer you a free, no-obligation consultation to discuss your particular care requirements with you and your loved ones. After your initial consultation, and agreement by both sides to progress, we will carry out an in-depth Full Care Needs Assessment for a small fee which is refundable after three months from the start of your care, if you are still receiving your care from The Beeches.

A detailed Care Plan will be formulated with you and your support network to reflect the wishes, preferences and specific support that meets your desired outcomes.

Our fees are all inclusive, there are no extra charges for travel time, Personal Protective Equipment or VAT. However, please note that for trips with a carer outside of the home, fuel is chargeable per mile.

Our minimum call length is 30 minutes per visit.

Prices for visits outside office hours (termed Unsocial) are higher as we pay our carers a premium for working outside these times, especially weekends and Bank Holidays.

Please contact the office to obtain the price list.
