About Fir Close
Fir Close supports older people and people living with dementia through residential care, with its registered scope also covering younger adults. The home forms part of PrimeLife’s residential care service, where accommodation and support are available around the clock.
PrimeLife describes support that can include short stays, convalescence or longer-term residential living, with meals and personal care in a residential setting. Fir Close is relevant when someone can no longer live alone or their needs have changed over time. PrimeLife also publishes guidance about care costs, NHS Continuing Healthcare and other funding routes. Registered support also covers younger adults.

Questions families ask
Do they provide nursing care as well as residential care?
Yes. They provide both residential care and residential nursing care in their homes.
Can care funding or accommodation run out after a few years?
No. Under current legislation, care funding is available for life, and they commit to providing accommodation for as long as it is needed.
What support do they provide for people with dementia?
They support people at different stages of dementia with personalised activity plans, including reminiscence sessions, music, singing and animal therapy visits, alongside a dementia-sensitive environment.
How much does Fir Close cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Fir Close for its weekly fee. As a guide, Lincolnshire council paid on average £769 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.
