Can Dove House provide meals for individual dietary needs?

How much does Dove House Care Home cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Dove House 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.
