Are residents assessed before admission?

Can the home accommodate specific physical requirements?

How much does Ferndale Lodge cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Ferndale Lodge for its weekly fee. As a guide, Kirklees council paid on average £957 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.
