Do health professionals visit the care home regularly?
Yes. District nurses, chiropodists, GPs and opticians visit regularly, while qualified staff are present 24 hours a day.
Are there set visiting hours?
No. There are no set visiting hours because the home is staffed 24 hours a day, and relatives are welcome to visit whenever they wish.

How much does St Mary's Care Home cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask St Mary's Care Home for its weekly fee. As a guide, Norfolk council paid on average £1,129 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.
