FEES
The Home charges the current rate of fees paid by the relevant placing social/ health services. For more details about fees and the methods for paying them, please see our separate Terms and Conditions of Residency (and Financial Agreement for Self-Funders).
Residents contributions to fees (or the full amount for some who self-fund) are usually collected by four weekly standing order. The fees are reviewed each year and usually change (subject to government guidance) each April.
OUR CURRENT FEE LEVELS ARE BETWEEN
£1350 -1500 PER PERSON PER WEEK
£ 1400-£ 1500 PER WEEK FOR A DOUBLE ROOM Single occupancy
Most people are eligible for financial assistance with their fees. This can be explained in detail by the relevant Social/ Health Services Department, but typically consists of a payment from Social Services
according to their assessments of their needs, with the remainder paid by you from your benefits or from your family
Other people have more than the “minimum level of savings” (set each year by the government) which leads to them having to pay the full care home fee (they become “self-funding”). For these people the NHS help by making a small contribution to fees.
Should your circumstances change, and you can no longer meet the full level of fees, Social Services will be contacted to assess your needs which usually culminates in them paying a finite amount, the outstanding balance being met by your family.
These prices are only a guideline, please contact Montana Care Home Grace and Compassion Benedictines to find out the exact price for your requirements.

The food is really, really good, and the atmosphere in the dining room is fun
Outings around and about Bury St Edmunds are frequent and well organised, alongside events at the home like the recent VE Day celebration party which was really well attended with residents, friends and sisters enjoying the sunshine, music and celebratory food and drinks.
The home has a beautiful rose garden to the front surrounded by a flowering rosemary hedge. Lovely, tranquil gardens surround the home, including an 600 year-old oak tree annd lots of wildlife, and there's a pretty courtyard in the centre.
Montana is a truly wonderful home.

Thank you for taking the time to review. I am happy to share that your dad has settled in well. He enjoys doing things in his own way and prefers not to participate in the activities provided by Montana.If his lack of participation has influenced your rating of our activities, please know that we continue to encourage him to join in. However, we respect his personal preferences and value his choices, taking them into careful consideration in his care.

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.869) out of 10 for Montana Care Home Grace and Compassion Benedictines is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 44 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 44 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.
The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.
The Average Rating of 4.869 for Montana Care Home Grace and Compassion Benedictines is calculated as follows: ( (454 Excellents x 5) + (60 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 518 Ratings = 4.869
b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').
The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Montana Care Home Grace and Compassion Benedictines is based on 44 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 19 registered maximum number of service users is 3.8, which has been reached with 44 Positive reviews. Points = 1
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
