About Queen Elizabeth House
Queen Elizabeth House provides residential, early dementia and respite care for older people in Bromley. The home also supports families considering a short stay after hospital recovery, temporary support or a trial before a longer-term move.
Before arrival, the team discusses needs, routines, preferences and support requirements to create a digital care plan that is updated regularly. Residents receive freshly prepared meals, activities and help settling into daily life. The home’s charitable model includes a Home for Life funding assurance, subject to its stated conditions, so private residents may receive support if personal funds run out. Flexible trial periods are offered for permanent stays.

Questions families ask
Does Queen Elizabeth House offer trial or respite stays?
Yes. They offer respite care and flexible trial periods for permanent stays. Residents receive personalised care, freshly prepared meals, activities and team support during short or long stays.
What happens if funds run out at Queen Elizabeth House?
The Home for Life funding assurance provides support for private residents to remain in care if their personal funds run out, subject to the scheme's conditions.
How does Queen Elizabeth House support the move into care?
Before arrival, they learn about each resident's needs, routines, preferences and support requirements. They then create a personalised digital care plan and help with routines, meals, activities and familiar comforts.
Does Queen Elizabeth House use agency staff?
They focus on continuity and minimal to no use of external staff, supported by long-serving leadership and a familiar team. Extra support may occasionally be needed.
How much does Queen Elizabeth House cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Queen Elizabeth House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Bromley council paid on average £934 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.
