About Middlefield House Nursing Home
Middlefield House Nursing Home supports younger adults and people with learning disabilities through nursing and residential care. Its registration covers learning disabilities and younger adults, while the provider’s published services also include support for physical disabilities, sensory and cognitive impairment, dementia and respite needs.
PrimeLife describes residential nursing care as support delivered by trained nurses within a residential setting. The wider service includes short stays, convalescence and care for people with mental health issues or learning disabilities. Some PrimeLife homes use a nurse call system with sensors on beds, chairs, windows and doors, but the evidence does not confirm that this specific feature is installed at Middlefield House.

How much does Middlefield House Nursing Home cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Middlefield House Nursing Home for its weekly fee. As a guide, Lincolnshire council paid on average £1,160 a week for a nursing care place for adults aged 18 to 64 in 2024-2025, against £1,521 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
