Dementia care should adapt to the person’s history, routines, communication and changing needs. A CQC rating is useful evidence, but it does not by itself show whether a home is the right environment for a particular person. Some dementia care homes are residential homes, others also provide 24-hour nursing care for people with clinical needs, so confirm that the home can support the person’s diagnosis, communication, mobility, medicines and likely future needs.
12 dementia care homes in Derbyshire are on the CQC register (data of 2 November 2026).
Derbyshire council paid on average £1,060 a week for residential care and £1,144 for nursing care for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025. For adults aged 18 to 64 it paid £2,154 and £1,645. Across England the averages were £982 and £1,102 for people aged 65 and over. People who pay for their own care are often charged more, so ask each home for its weekly fee.
