Questions families ask
Do they accept state-funded care residents?
Yes. They accept both private and state-funded residents, provided the care needs have been assessed and the required fee can be agreed.
What care needs do they support?
They support physical disabilities, end-of-life care, respite stays and specialist needs including peg feeding, catheter and stoma care, epilepsy, Parkinson’s, COPD, cancer and pressure sores.
Is there an assessment before moving into the home?
Yes. They first gather information about the prospective resident’s needs, arrange a viewing, then complete an in-depth assessment and an assessment on entry.
Do they offer a trial period for new residents?
Yes. New residents have a four-week trial period, during which either side can give one week’s notice. A refund is issued within 14 days of departure.
How much does Mount Olivet Nursing Home cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Mount Olivet Nursing Home for its weekly fee. As a guide, Torbay council paid on average £1,208 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.
