Questions families ask
What types of care do they offer?
They offer nursing care, dementia care and respite or short-stay care.
Can they cater for special dietary requirements?
Yes. Their chefs are trained to cater for clinical, religious and ethical dietary requirements, including modified textured dishes where needed.
Is care tailored to each resident?
Yes. They get to know each resident’s preferences and needs so care can be personalised to the individual.
How much does Orchard House Care Centre cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Orchard House Care Centre for its weekly fee. As a guide, Isle of Wight council paid on average £1,044 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.
