About St Ives Close
St Ives Close is registered as a residential care home without nursing for people with learning disabilities. The setting is suited to enquiries about supported living arrangements where daily life, communication and personal independence need to be considered together.
The associated service context focuses on helping people with learning disabilities live their lives fully, with accessible communication, social care and support for families and carers. Work with partners is intended to build inclusive communities, while clear information is available for people who need it. St Ives Close therefore centres on residential care for learning disabilities, rather than nursing provision.

Questions families ask
How much does St Ives Close cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask St Ives Close for its weekly fee. As a guide, Staffordshire council paid on average £1,062 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 St Ives Close whether it takes residents funded by Staffordshire 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.
