Questions families ask
Can nail care appointments take place at home?
Yes. Home appointments are available across Bournemouth, Christchurch, Poole and East Dorset, so clients can receive professional nail care without leaving home.
Can they cut nails for people with diabetes or on blood thinners?
Yes. Their nail care service provides routine toenail cutting and basic footcare for clients with diabetes or who take blood thinners.
Is the Winton nail cutting clinic suitable for older people with reduced mobility?
Yes. The clinic provides routine nail cutting for older people who may find nail care difficult because of reduced mobility, flexibility or other age-related challenges.
How much does Fairlawn cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Fairlawn for its weekly fee. As a guide, Dorset council paid on average £1,254 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.
