Questions families ask
How many residents is Selly Wood House registered for?
Selly Wood House is registered for 48 residents.
Can care be funded privately or by the local authority?
Both options are available. Around half of care home residents are funded by the local authority, while others fund their own care as self-funders.
How much does Selly Wood House Nursing Home cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Selly Wood House Nursing Home for its weekly fee. As a guide, Birmingham council paid on average £894 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.
