About Kingfishers
Kingfishers supports older people with residential, assisted, nursing, end-of-life and respite care in New Milton. Care is clinically led, with nurses present day and night and decisions made by a team familiar with residents’ changing needs.
The “All About Me” approach shapes care around routines, preferences and personal habits rather than fixed schedules. Residents also have access to activities, gardens and dining spaces, with opportunities for music, nature and shared experiences. Families can arrange a visit to explore rooms, care pathways and everyday life before making a decision. Nurses are present day and night as part of the home’s clinical oversight.

Questions families ask
How much does Kingfishers cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Kingfishers for its weekly fee. As a guide, Hampshire council paid on average £1,359 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.
Who pays for a place in this home?
Ask Kingfishers whether it takes residents funded by Hampshire council and what it charges people who pay for themselves. In England the council may help after a needs assessment and a financial assessment if savings and assets are below £23,250 (2026 to 2027 rules). In a nursing home the NHS also pays £267.68 a week towards the nursing care of residents assessed as needing it. People whose needs are mainly health needs may qualify for NHS Continuing Healthcare, which pays the full fee.
