Questions families ask

How long can a respite stay at Inver House last?

Usually up to 8 weeks. Longer stays may be considered according to individual circumstances and care needs.

Can someone try Inver House before moving in permanently?

Yes. Day care lets prospective residents experience the home, meet the team, join activities and decide whether longer-term care is suitable, subject to availability.

Can residents bring their own furniture to Inver House?

Yes. Residents may bring furniture, photographs, ornaments, books and other belongings, provided there is enough space. The maintenance team can help with personal touches.

Does Inver House require a holding deposit?

Sometimes. The Home Manager may request one, particularly when reserving a room for a move-in date at least two weeks after the care needs assessment. It is refundable after move-in, although 50% may be retained if the move does not happen.

How much does Inver House cost?

The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Inver House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Isle of Wight council paid on average £904 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.
