Questions families ask
How long can respite care last?
Respite care is usually booked for up to 8 weeks, depending on individual circumstances. Longer stays may be assessed individually with an appropriate care plan.
Is a holding deposit required for a care home room?
A holding deposit may be requested when reserving a room for a future move-in date. It is refundable after the scheduled move-in day, although 50% may be non-refundable if the move does not take place.
Are care home rooms furnished?
Yes. Rooms are furnished, and residents can bring personal furniture, photographs, books and other belongings if there is enough space.
Can someone try the home before moving in?
Yes. Day care can provide time to experience the home, meet the team and join activities before making a longer-term decision, subject to availability.
How much does The Elms Care Home cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask The Elms Care Home 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.
