About The Moorings Care Home
Private residential care at The Moorings Care Home is intended for older people, including people living with dementia and those with mental health needs who do not require nursing care. A senior care team assesses health, medical and social needs before admission.
The home provides 24-hour attendance, meals, snacks and refreshments, while residents are encouraged to retain choice and independence. Families and representatives can be involved in the admission process, and care is planned around the individual. The service is private residential care for older people, with the home’s approach centred on a supportive setting rather than nursing provision.

How much does The Moorings Care Home cost?

As a guide, Isle of Wight council paid on average £904 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.
