About Alphonsus House
Residential support at Alphonsus House is aimed at adults with learning disabilities or mental health needs. The Oldbury home also has registered scope covering older people, younger adults, physical disabilities and sensory impairment, with support intended to help residents move towards greater independence in the community.

The home encourages people to remain active and take part in daily life, while providing accommodation and care without nursing. This creates a structured residential setting for individuals who need ongoing support with learning disability or mental health needs.

Questions families ask
How much does Alphonsus House cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Alphonsus House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Sandwell council paid on average £1,034 a week for a residential care place for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025, against £982 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 Alphonsus House whether it takes residents funded by Sandwell 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). People whose needs are mainly health needs may qualify for NHS Continuing Healthcare, which pays the full fee.
