Yes. Westacres has a dedicated PBS Practitioner and an experienced team supporting people with complex behavioural needs.
How much does Westacres cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Westacres for its weekly fee. As a guide, Essex council paid on average £1,085 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.
