About Abbey Court Care Home
Abbey Court Care Home provides nursing care alongside dementia, residential, respite, day and palliative care. Registered nurses oversee residents’ health and wellbeing, while wider care teams support daily routines and changing needs. Short-term respite care can help during recovery from illness, provide a carer’s break or offer time to experience the home.
The home’s wider care model includes support for advanced dementia and more complex needs, with teams working alongside healthcare professionals. Nursing care can include health monitoring and individual clinical support, while palliative care focuses on comfort, dignity, familiar routines and family support. Abbey Court is part of Knights Care’s group of nursing homes.

Questions families ask
How much does Abbey Court Care Home cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Abbey Court Care Home for its weekly fee. As a guide, Staffordshire council paid on average £1,352 a week for a nursing care place for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025, against £1,102 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
Who pays for a place in this home?
Ask Abbey Court Care Home whether it takes residents funded by Staffordshire council and what it charges people who pay for themselves. In England the council may help after a needs assessment and a financial assessment if savings and assets are below £23,250 (2026 to 2027 rules). In a nursing home the NHS also pays £267.68 a week towards the nursing care of residents assessed as needing it. People whose needs are mainly health needs may qualify for NHS Continuing Healthcare, which pays the full fee.
