How much does nursing care home cost in Nottinghamshire?

Nursing care home in Nottinghamshire costs £2,170 per week based on the latest NHS England ASC-FR data. The national median is £1,239 per week, so Nottinghamshire is more expensive than the national average. Costs vary by individual provider and care package — always ask for an itemised quote.

Will Nottinghamshire council pay for my care?

Nottinghamshire council pays for adult social care subject to a means-tested financial assessment. In England the upper capital threshold is £23,250 (savings + home value if going into residential care). Below this, the council contributes on a sliding scale. Above it, you pay the full cost yourself. Nottinghamshire contracts with private and voluntary providers — you can usually choose your provider as long as the council's rate is met or you top up the difference.

How do I find a care home in Nottinghamshire?

Nottinghamshire council has a duty under the Care Act 2014 to provide information and advice on local care providers. Contact Nottinghamshire adult social care team for an assessment. The CQC (Care Quality Commission) website lists every registered care home in Nottinghamshire with the most recent inspection rating. Treatcompare cross-references CQC inspection data when available.

What's included in the nursing care home cost in Nottinghamshire?

Care home with on-site qualified nurses for residents with complex medical needs — typically 25–40% more expensive than residential care without nursing. The £2,170 per week figure is the council-paid average — what private clients pay is typically 20-40% higher because care providers cross-subsidise local-authority-funded residents from self-funder fees. Top-ups for nicer rooms, additional services, or location premiums are charged separately.

Is this the same as private care home prices?

No. ASC-FR figures are what local councils pay providers for the residents they fund — not the private 'self-funder' rate. Private clients typically pay 20-40% more than the council rate for the same care. Treatcompare uses the council rate as a baseline because it's the only nationally consistent published figure; expect to pay more if you're self-funding.
