About Blenheim Care Home
Blenheim Care Home provides residential, end-of-life and palliative care for older people with dementia in Bournemouth. The home’s registered service is residential care without nursing, with support delivered in a setting that includes daily activities, communal areas and home-cooked meals.
Residents can take part in organised activities and receive updates about changes in their care, while the wider Agincare service provides guidance on care options and personalised planning. Blenheim is suited to people seeking long-term residential support where dementia care, end-of-life care and everyday routines are brought together. Families can discuss the individual’s needs and the available care arrangements with the provider before making a decision.

Questions families ask
Can care start within 24 hours?
Sometimes. Care can often be arranged within 24 hours, depending on the person’s needs and location, and emergency care is available for urgent situations.
Can they provide a short-term care trial?
Yes. Smart Start offers a two- to four-week trial of home care or live-in care before a longer-term decision is made.
Do they arrange cover if a carer is unavailable?
Yes. As a fully managed provider, they arrange replacement carers when a regular carer is sick or on holiday.
How much does Blenheim Care Home cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Blenheim Care Home for its weekly fee. As a guide, Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole council paid on average £1,295 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.
