About The Owls Care Home

Rooms and flats at The Owls Care Home provide residential support for elderly residents in Blackpool. The home is suited to people who need help with everyday living, with care and medication management organised within the residence.

Staff use The Well Pad, a computerised medication system, to identify residents and due medicines while maintaining an auditable process. A hairdresser visits every Thursday and a chiropodist attends every six weeks. The home is registered for residential care without nursing, so families should consider whether the person’s needs can be met through this type of provision rather than a nursing placement.

How does The Owls manage residents’ medication?

The home uses The Well Pad, a computerised and fully auditable system designed to identify residents and prevent incorrect medication or timing.

Yes. The home’s hairdresser visits every Thursday.

Does The Owls provide regular chiropody visits?

How much does The Owls Care Home cost?

The CQC register does not list fees, so ask The Owls Care Home for its weekly fee. As a guide, Blackpool council paid on average £758 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.
