About Hamilton House
Hamilton House provides specialist 24-hour residential, nursing and respite care in Portsmouth. The home supports people with dementia and older adults who need continuing care, including residents whose needs include physical or psychological support.
The service is designed to help residents retain independence, identity and a sense of value, while families receive guidance through the transition into care. Visits can be arranged to view the facilities and environment, and the home can be contacted directly about viewing arrangements. Hamilton House is particularly relevant when a family needs nursing support alongside a residential setting and wants to understand the care environment before admission.

Questions families ask
What type of care does Hamilton House provide?
Hamilton House provides specialist 24-hour residential care, nursing care and respite care.
Do I need to book before viewing the care home?
It is advisable to book ahead so staff are available to show visitors around and provide the relevant information.
Can residents bring their own furniture to Hamilton House?
Yes. Residents may bring small items of furniture and treasured belongings. Electrical items are PAT tested and furniture undergoes a fire risk assessment.
Do residents need contents insurance for belongings in the care home?
Suitable contents insurance is strongly recommended for small furniture or personal belongings, as the home does not accept responsibility for loss or damage unless security precautions were compromised.
How much does Hamilton House cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Hamilton House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Portsmouth council paid on average £1,463 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.
