Funding & Fees

At Heanton Nursing Home, we understand that no two people are the same. Everyone is unique, with their own preferences, needs and lifestyle, and we believe their care should reflect that. Because of this, our fees are tailored to each person and their individual requirements.

This personalised approach continues after someone moves in. We understand that people’s needs can change over time, and their care and support may need to change with them. If this affects their fee, we will take the time to explain what has changed and talk everything through openly, clearly and sensitively with them and the people closest to them.

The prices listed are therefore a guide. To arrange a personal assessment, please use the call or email buttons above to contact our support team.

Visiting

As part of their household model of care, they don’t believe in having set visiting hours – you should be able to visit your relatives or friends whenever you like, just as you would if they were living in their own home. You are welcome to visit day and night, and the team encourage you to feel comfortable and treat it as an extension of your loved one’s home. They recommend calling in advance so they can make sure that it doesn’t clash with any trips out or doctors appointments.

Parking

Heanton Nursing Home has a large carpark, overlooking stunning views of the Devon countryside.
