About Olive House Home for Older People
Olive House Home for Older People supports older people within a registered residential care setting. Its care scope includes dementia, mental health and physical disabilities, as well as younger adults, making it broader than a retirement-only service.
The available business evidence identifies a home for older people and additional support needs, but gives little specific detail about activities, facilities or care methods. The clearest practical point for families is therefore the range of people covered by its registration, including older people, younger adults and residents living with dementia or physical disabilities.

Questions families ask
How much does Olive House Home for Older People cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Olive House Home for Older People for its weekly fee. As a guide, Lancashire council paid on average £925 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.
Who pays for a place in this home?
Ask Olive House Home for Older People whether it takes residents funded by Lancashire 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). People whose needs are mainly health needs may qualify for NHS Continuing Healthcare, which pays the full fee.
